Camp Fear

Camp Fear

Characters:

Mark: The easily beaten professor who lacks responsibility and really is not a good teacher, has a mullet (hehe).

Jamie: Mark’s girlfriend and a whiny wanna-be pop rock queen, sadly she lives...

Wendy: nothing to say about her....

Tiffany: A whiny hiker who is kidnaped, drugged and has her throat cut to appease the great lake monster

Ace: The leader of the bikers, the dude accidentally sets The Druid on fire, no I will not explain how, it was too stupid

The Wino: A crazy old drunk who believes that the Mystic Mountains are filled with demons...

Roger: One of the party crashing bikers, not amazingly bright, goes for a swim to get Speedy’s coat and gets eaten by the monster

Speedy: Another one of the bikers, tries to rape Wendy but ends up being eaten by a lake monster.

The Druid: A huge monster of a man who has spent the last 2,000 years sacrificing people to appease the lake monster he worships to keep the end of the world from happining, gets caught on fire...

The Lake Monster: Actually it’s always referred to as a Sea Monster but since it’s in a lake I’ll just blame the script, wierdly enough kills more people that the actual “serial”killer...






Plot:
NOTE: this was taken from the back cover...

Instead of spending their spring break partying in Palm Springs, a group of sorority sisters decide to go camping with their professor. Their sexcapades are broken up when a druid stumble upon the coeds and decide they must be surrendered to the gods in order to avert Judgment Day. While a druid giant (Tiny Ron) builds his own Stonehenge for the sacrificial ceremony, will the campers come up with an escape plan in time?




Review:
Ha, I can’t believe I just sat through that whole mess of a film Camp Fear is not a slasher like the box cover will have you believe, it’s actually a cheesy movie about Y2K (the end of the world on the year 2000), the weirdest part is that it contains giant blue people, Indians, lake monsters, bike gangs, cowboys, Stonehenge, and cheerleaders... yet all of the film takes place in California Yes, as you might’ve expected this low budget trash film is horrible filled with some of the worst dialogue ever heard I mean it’s almost like they were stoned whilst writing this Honestly it’s funny as hell but not in the least bit scary, or gory for that matter. If you wanted to see a gory forgotten slasher flick, this is not it, hell Bambi is gorier All we get here is a fake slit throat I mean how much money is fake blood anyways??? I mean even for a budget of this caliber I would guess there was at least enough money tp buy red paint And the plot, don’t even get me started on the plot Nope, won’t do it, you can’t make me

The directing is for the most part average, nothing out of the ordinary or creative here. The acting sucks, with the wooden actors reading off of damned Que Cards Horrible, the only good thing is the late porn star actress Savannah in a short random shower scene. But honestly, I really can’t recommend this to anyone but the most hardened of the B movie fanatics, and possibly for those looking for a lake monster movie, god knows how hard those are to come by





Gore:
A slit throat and nothing else Pathetic


T&A:
Actually there is a lot of nudity in the beginning, followed by a extremely unsexy sex scene.

Plot:

Review:
Yep, just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse, this atrocity shows up, and it’s horrible This film and all of it’s copies should be cast into the abyss for the Black Dragon to claim waste upon (Dissection fans will thank me for that). Anyways there is nothing good about this film, it sucks to put it simply There is no gore, the acting is horrible, the script...well I don’t really think there was a script to this so no comment there, the directing is.. Well better than anything else in this film and it’s still only mediocre The budget for this...”film” was a mere 6,000$ so I guess it actually could’ve turned out MUCH worse that it did, I’ll warn you now, this will not be a very long review, mainly due more towards the fact that it was only an hour long more than the fact that it sucks.

Left For Dead

Left For Dead:




Characters:

Tommy: Our main character, not the brightest kid in the world, breaks his leg, god I never knew it could be so funny to watch a cripple get thrown down the stairs! (Yes, he survives though).

Blair: The man who started this whole thing, accidentally kills a man and for that he gets a mactete embedded in his head.

Nancy: Tommy's girlfriend, seems like a nice enough person, a stoner nonetheless but a good person, seems to attract blades, and in this case it seems quite terminal.

Clark: The sex fiend, I mean seriously he had sex with three different people in the movie, that is, before being impaled with a fire poker.

Detective Brakket: Ahh, seems he son is in a coma due Tommy and friends being stupid asses.

The Mask: Our killer, what a nice person hehe, it's too bad so many of the murders were non gory, Tommy must've been pissed about this also, as our killer ended up headless...





Plot:
One year ago a group of friends accidentally kill a thief, or so they thought. Now, one year later on Halloween night, someone is killing off the participants of that brutal slaying and anyone who gets in their way. Is the murders connected to the slaying of the thief? Will anyone survive this bloodbath? It's actually not much of a bloodbath but oh well.
















Review:
YAWN! Thats it? All the hype and this is what I get? This is no more than a VERY average slasher film. I mean this typical slasher film has had gotten a rave review from Slasherpool.com, a website I highly respect, and this is what I get for taking his advice? This movie is cheesy and rather stupid ,I mean I think we all could see the twist miles away! I mean really is this all I got? It's a half assed rip off of almost every slasher in existence for god's sake! But, it did not completely suck! Here is a list of the good things and a list of the bad thing to be found in this movie:

GOOD THINGS:
Neck breaking fast pace.
Big bodycount.
Good effects.
Occasionally good directing.
Superb acting.
And lots of Sex!

BAD THINGS:
Unoriginal.
Not in the least bit suspenseful or scary.
Bad twist.
Occasionally half assed acting and directing.
Very goreless!
Very stereotypical characters.


I mean yeah it's got more good things than bad so thats always nice. What surprised me about this movie though is that there is almost no gore! Now normally this would not have bothered me but it had a big bodycount (15 people if I counted correctly), and out of those I'd say maybe 8 of them had any blood in them at all! Well I guess this movie isn't a complete waste, don't let my review screw with your going to see it, it's worth it, but not by a lot. I can gladly recommend this movie to any fan of slasher movies as it is just like every other slasher in existence!












T&A:
There is actually a lot of nudity in it!



Gore:
Some stabbings, a slashed throat, a knife through the stomach, a machete in the head, and a decapitation, not a lot considering the bodycount.

Characters:

Kelly: The closest thing to a main character we get, gets kidnaped beaten and raped, and the poor chick is brained by her shrink

John Powell: A reporter on the case of murders, not much more to say about this bland character.

The Shrink: Kelly’s shrink, who is a part of the cult, kills Kelly with a hammer....

The Reporter: A young girl who is doing a report for her local news station, beaten to death with a hammer.

The Killers: Three retards, a skinhead and a shrink who kidnap, murder, torture and rape girls, the tards suffer a missing hand and a head crushed, the skinhead is run over, and the shrink roams freely with the two remaining retards (yes the one without the hand survived).




Plot:
This will be short, umm, a cult of people kidnap, murder, torture and rape innocent women, until one decides to fights back... yeah thats pretty much it....








Review:
Hahahaha
Wow, what a pathetic movie It alone managed to have no plot, horrible acting, a horrible script, and just about everything else sucked, but unusually enough, it’s one of the few movies with that budget that can manage to make a watchable film, sure not a actual “good” film but it’s watchable for sure I mean it has some good gore, a few unusual plot twists(notice I didn’t say good plot twists), and a fair amount of nudity and Satanism spewed throughout.

This is really going to be a short review, but then again look at the movie I’m reviewing, it’s the no budget sequel to the equally mediocre film Day Of The Ax (2004), the directing is nothing special and the camera angles bugged me on occasion, and I hated the annoying cheap filter they added to the film to make it look like the film had been damaged ( I mean physically damaged), the “acting” is for the most part horrible, except for a few believable scenes from our main actress Sybl something... I forgot her last name, damn. Oh well, if you enjoyed the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre and don’t mind seeing a blatant rip-off with an even lower budget and a worse director, check it out, although many people have seen to hate this film a lot more than I do








Gore:
A couple of fingers chopped off, a severed head, a hand chopped off, a severed foot, some fake stabbings, and not a lot more.

Sam: Lisa’s boyfriend and a cripple, regains the ability to walk, but still dies while trying to save Lisa... that sword killed alotta people.

Tracy and Jennifer: Lisa’s co workers, die in this following order, death by uber orgasm, and decapitated

Steven: Dies pretty early, damn lawyer, has his face peeled off and his identity is stolen by the Wishmaster.

The Wishmaster: A creepy demon/Djinn thing that loves Lisa, puts her though hell and back, literally haha, suffers a big sword in the stomach.





Plot:
A woman gets bought a ornamental box which breaks, exposing a jewel that unleashes the Djinn, a demon that’ll grant your deepest desires, for your soul The demon lies, cheats, tortures and kills everyone that keeps him from making the the wishes so he can bring back his condemned race of evil doers and murderers Will Lisa be able to save the world? Will Sam ever be able to walk? Will I watch the first three movies?













Review:
Well, this was pretty fun, sure it was kinda stupid and cheesy but damn, it was entertaining for sure This movie has some really cool gore in it as well as the awe inspiring makeup effects of the Djinn, even if the horns tend to look rubbery and wiggly every ow and then It does run slower than usual and there is a rather low bodycount in thins here film and the last 30 minutes felt more like a Fantasy movie than anything else. But since I have seen tons worse movie out there I can’t really give this a bad review, actually I can’t really give this a lot of a review seeing as there wasn’t a lot of plot in the movie, just the same as in the other three movies more or less.

The Directing is a mixed bag with the movie turning from cheesy to watch-able constantly The acting for the most part is pretty good, with the usual exception of a few bit characters of course
So I would probably recommend this for anyone into demon movies, or anyone that just wants to watch a fun, gory, cheesy movie, it’s definitely worth the time



Gore:
a face peeled off, a tongue pulled off, a nose cut off, a decapitation, a impalement, a sword in the stomach, blood splatter and more Very good

Characters:

Tim: Our main character, the leader and head reporter for the news place he works at, forced to go due to him screwing up a news report and ends up shot, stabbed, beaten and nearly eaten
(There is a homage to Gorerotted in that last sentence)

Aviva: ha, weird name, but I nice person who manages to end up shooting people stabbing people, setting up elaborite traps and dumping Croc sperm on people, it was her idea to go to the damned place in the first place

Matt: A croc expert and not the brightest person I’ve ever seen, poor dude, hit by a car then shot

Green: A old man who is hired as a guide, eaten by Gustav.

Jo-Jo: A local African who is trying to learn english so he can go to America, seems to be a good shot, now I was pretty sure this dude was dead for a while, but my was I surprised when I see him moving around in the fucking jeep, then on a plane to America, this dude’s got it lucky, although he was shot...

Steven: A black reporter who has some great lines in the movie and is good for a few laughs, but still winds up dead with a missing arm

The Guards: Aoko and the other guy, in order Aoko was dismembered and the other dude was shot by Jo-Jo...

Gustav (The dude): A mean bastard if there ever was one, seems to enjoy slaughtering families, ripped in half then has his head popped like a grape, quite fun it was

Gustav (The Croc): One bigass mother of a Croc, his here to eat people and when he gets the chance he damn right does his job, too bad he was more of a subplot then the most important character in the movie


Plot:
Hmm, a group of people try to stay alive in Africa while shooting a documentary about a 25 foot killer crocodile, the croc seems to have other plans though, and dinner seems to be one of them Will anyone survive this creatures reign of terror? Will anyone actually get killed by the croc? Why do you love me?





Review:
Apparently inspired by a true croc killer of sorts, this little flick starts off promisingly with a cool yet mildly cheesy and mostly off screen croc attack, sadly this got our hopes up for a killer croc movie. This turned out to be a of action movie with a killer crocodile thrown in it for good measure. Hell this movie really should’ve made up its mind on what it wanted to me, was it a killer croc movie, a action movie, or as the previews suggest, a slasher? Well it’s not a slasher, thats for sure Yes the preview is very misleading, If you were expecting a killer crocodile movie, you will be at least mildly disappointed, and if you somehow managed to figure out it was a dull action flick then you got it Alright then now that we got past that lets take a look at this ever genre changing beast of a movie, shall we? It is quite a fun movie to watch and is never really boring, so thats always a plus I personally thought the special effects were awesome I have no idea what everyone was bitching about, besides a few minor scenes in the earlier part of the film.
Sure the dialogue was less than average, and the plot was weird as hell. And that whole thing with the dog was unneeded and unnecessary, to say the least And it really lacked gore, that was one of the main things that bugged me. The gore is ALL from the croc and he only kills like 5 or 6 people, and half of those were off screen kills But what we did get was quite gruesome and brutal though, such as Greene’s death, and Gustav’s death and particular

The directing is awe-inspiring and very relaxing for the eyes as I thought it really showed off the more beautiful side of Africa. The acting was pretty good for most parts, although there were a few moments for everyone where the dialogue seemed forced. I can recommend this film for Creature Feature fans and I can see the fans of Sci-Fi channel having a blast with this

Review:
This was a surprise This is a fairly entertaining slasher movie that has the feel and stench of the 80's all over it It is gorefilled, funny, entertaining, and worth a good rent It took long enough for a slasher not to use a twist ending and there was not one in here. Your never really bored throughout the film although the last half hour seems to drag a bit, I mean they did kill off almost all of the characters by the hour mark. But while it may be fun it is a very forgettable film and I can say that you will have forgotten most of it by the time you are done watching it

The directing is fairly good, really brings on the 80's feel and uses some interesting angles. The acting is fairly good as well, with good acting from all of the main characters and Robert Englund, although the rest of the characters seem to be lacking. This is one of my shortest reviews yet and I can still clearly understand why. Heart Stopper is a fun and enjoyable slasher movie but it is rather generic and forgettable. I would recommend this movie a good rental for all slasher fanatics I wouldn’t buy it as I can see that it’s not something I would watch more than once...

Hmm, well there is the grim reaper, teens, a crazy doctor who sold his soul to save him from cancer, churches, and a unclothed grim reaper, no don’t make me actually explain what is going on in the film, please I refuse I don’t wanna








Review:
Ouch, this movie hurt me, not physically, but mentally It is so damned confusing that I had no clue what was going on in most of the film, I mean the actual plot description barely even tells you what the movie is about. The characters are unoriginal and for he most part you really don’r care if they live or die, they are just there to raise the bodycount above the small limits it had in the first place, not to mention all the characters save the two main ones and the Grim Reaper are dead by the time the movie was 1 hour in Which leads me to my next complaint, without opening or ending credits the movie is barely 70 minutes long, the grim reaper is actually very cheesy looking and doesn’t even feel supernatural, he just felt like the average person in a rather poor Halloween costume And don’t you even get me started on the gore, there is one good gore scene, and thats Nick’s death, the rest are very badly done and for the most part are rather fake and cheesily pulled off I bought the movie used for 4$ at a garage sale and the dude I bought it from looked genuinely happy that I bought it, I guess I’m a sucker for cool covers Ah well....

The directing goes from mildly cool to badly pulled off and very cheesy, filled with weird and unneeded angles but at least there was no zooms I just hate it when people zoom in on things during movies The acting is pretty bad with two Ok performances from the two main characters and everyone else doing VERY unconvincing jobs as the dialogue felt forced and badly delivered I can’t really recommend this to anyone, maybe the diehard slasher fans as they are probably the only guys who can handle thins movie without trying to smash the TV open

Review:
This was truly a weird one, filled with twists and turns, but sadly it turned out to be more of a mystery/thriller than the slasher I hoped it to be. As you’ve read the plot is pretty original, at least I have yet to see another movie like it. IT has some truly cool moments and can be very brutal at times, but these time are way to far to keep your interested in the film, most of the film revolves in the past with Fenton slowly going crazy, ending with the death of his father. This leaves a lot to be desired as only three of the kills out of the 11 that are killed are on-screen So this is an extremely bloodless movie, with the only on-screen gore action is a rather bloodless but rather brutal scene where Fenton drives an axe into the chest of the maddened father, hell there are three murders with any blood in them at all, and our killer only committed one of them, with the only other scenes to watch for are a rather fake looking slit throat and some brutal but mostly off-screen stabbings at the end of the film, actually I don’t think there was more then a drop of bloodshed until the hour mark Ah well, there are a few good things about the movie though, like the original and rather brilliant plot, an angel coming to a man in his dreams and telling him to kill certain people that may or may not be demons. And you never really get to know until the tail end of the film, which really keeps you on the edge of your seat. As I might’ve mentioned earlier while most of the deaths are bloodless a few are rather brutal, including the old woman’s stabbing scene, the sheriff’s death and the fathers death, just to name a few, the whole movie has a overwhelming sense of brutality and insanity, and you can really feel for the kids and what they are put through


The directing is actually not really good, Bill Paxton rarely tries any new/imaginative/original angles, hell he barley does more then just pan around but at least there is no cheesy/shitty zooming in sequences. And the acting is one of the best things about the film as everyone of the actors managed to pull off a very realistic portrayal of their characters. If not for the annoying and sometimes fake sounding southern accents the acting would’ve been brilliant I can’t really recommend this to to many people, maybe if you are looking for a different and mildly unique slasher/mystery/thriller you could give it a try, but it really is not much of a horror movie

A rather bloodless axe in the chest, a slit throat, and nothing else, very dry, needed more gore

They are all annoying, whiney, bitchy “highschoolers” who you really want to die Speaking of dying, the kills are so fucking pathetic that it’s funny And damn there were tons of plot holes I mean they all just seemed to forget about Andrew as soon as they go looking for him and end up having sex (off-screen of course) and there are some horrible errors with the movie I mean there are multiple scenes where you can see the camera mans reflection in car doors and stuff, you get to not only see the mic but the hands of the guy who was holding it And I caught ALL of the actors staring straight at the camera All the on-screen kills are very badly done, and the script, I’ve never known a serious person to say “Gee Willies” I mean they are literally insulting my intelligence, which I am starting to judge, how the hell could I buy this trash movie? Ahh I’m so angry right now, I guess the artwork/cover of the film was the only good thing about it What the hell??

Review:
Haha Well this is quite an enjoyable movie Sure not a very good one, or a scary one or a gory one either, but all in all it’s pretty fun The movie’s plot is nice and cheesy, and filled with so many plot-holes that I’m surprised that I didn’t fall in one You see this guy in a rubber suit, wait thats not right.... Ok, let me try again, this monster is created through some weird and unusually confusing manner involving a store of uranium and a bad light. The “monster” rarely appears on-screen and for most of the time is really funny and awkward looking, I feel sorry for whoever they dragged into doing that Well the rest of the movie goes around in a mildly entertaining manner as we get to watch the characters be stupid and random... Until the end where the monster is blown up.... yeah.....

While the directing is pretty good for the most part back in those days at least. The acting is pretty fun also, the guys do a pretty good job for a cheesy 50's movie, I am surprised that that these guys didn’t appear in more films.... but I believe that I am going to have to end this review early, seeing as I gots to review at least two more movies tonight

Santa Claws

Santa Claws

Characters:

Raven: A nice soft-core porn actress, is trying to balance two kids, her job, her falling apart marriage, and her stalker neighbor

Laura: A local porn actress, suffers from a rare case of sharp hand rake syndrome.....

Wayne: A young, disturbed dude who is stalking Raven, creepy dude, killed his parents when he was little... Hit in the stomach with a hand rake by Raven.

The Husband: I don’t think hey ever say his name, but he is a very important character, nearly dies after being assaulted my “Santa”......

Santa: Yeah, Wayne’s alter ego kinda thing, kills people with a hand rake, until he is killed with the same rake.




Plot:
Well, you see, Raven is a struggling up and coming actress who finds herself as well as anyone associated with her in grave peril after finding her fellow “workers” dead and dying, killed by her screwed up stalker neighbor Will Raven make it out alive? Will she be able to save her family and friends? Will I ever watch a decent movie??













Review:
Hahaha Wow, what a name Santa Claws Hahaha Ah, well. This seems to be a pretty cheap movie right here, it’s sad to see that the writer of Night Of The Living Dead, has come down to cheap, bloodless, no budget, wannabe slashers. It’s just too cheap and corny to take seriously, and too boring to take it as a Horror-Comedy It’s too bad, the plot seemed actually good, but the bodycount is just to low to keep things entertaining for us, the viewers, and you have the fact that the movie feels like it was only made as an excuse (a bad one) to show naked scream queens, but it can’t be considered as anything besides horror because there’s not enough nudity to call it a skin flick, and there’s not enough intentional humor to call it a comedy(but, trust me, it is funny as hell), and not enough focus on anything besides the crazy stalker to call it anything besides horror I guess I can call it horror, although mainly due to the fact that people wasted money on this, piece of shit

While it may seem that I really hate this movie, I don’t it has it’s good points, but many more bad points, I mean the acting is pretty good, yeah it’s a stretch, but if ya really pay attention (something I don’t recommend) you can see that the cast is really trying As for the directing, I do feel sorry for the fact that the great writer from Night of The Living Dead tried to direct, as it seems he is only good at writing, but I believe he learned his lesson with this mockery of film making. But, if you really want to see it, go ahead, it’s not something I’m planning on ever watching again, but you really want to watch it, just try not to be upset, as for it should only be seen by true slasher fans, due to the fact that for anyone else, it might be too bad for the inexperienced to handle





Gore:
Ha Nothing besides some non-gory hand rake action.



T&A:
There is a lot of nudity for this type of film, so don’t watch it with your girlfriend, unless she won’t be offended by it

Will they get there rightful revenge against the Hillbilly menace? Will I ever watch this again??













Review:
Wow I was not expecting this at all This little unknown movie really was good It looked like the cast and crew really put there heart into making this, and it really shows This is way better than the usual shit released back in ‘87 Now to put it simply this was a mix of Deliverance, Rambo, and throw in a little bit of Texas Chainsaw Massacre and the mind of a bored 14 year old reviewer and you got a great movie As another plus, this one has a budget and was not Shot on Video Now there are a few things I should mention, such as the film took over 50 minutes to get going, but when it did.... damn did it go With just enough moments of suspense, violence, and soul these guys managed to make a unusually haunting trip to the deep, and dark recesses of the deep south

Now for the directing, there is not too much unusual, but no unflattering angels and our kind director does manage to make it look more high budget than it was. And the acting is great, and beautifully well done and for the most part realistically done and quite entertaining For any fans of Horror, or Action, or Deliverance or anything along those lines, please do yourselves a favor and please check this movie out






Gore:
A gory dead body, a severed head, a knife in the throat, a head blown in half, and a impalement.

Sam Campbell: A pissed off, mean movie director, neck snapped by Eddie

The Colonel: Yeah, this army dude that tries to kill Ed, shot








Summary:
Well, a film editor goes crazy after trying (badly) to edit the gore out of the horrible Loose Limbs horror series And Ed our mild mannered film editor, slowly goes crazy from the sheer disgustingness of the Loose Libs series, driving him to kill mercilessly You have no idea how hard I was laughing when I wrote this
















Review:
This has to be the one of the weirdest slashers I’ve seen in a while I mean come on, a guy going insane and killing people due to some really fake gore effects, eh, it’s just simply unbelievable The budget feels rather low and the overall feeling to the movie is cheap and cheesy. It’s got some funnier moments and it really shouldn’t be taken seriously, otherwise you’ll end up hating it

The Acting is pretty bad, but I am starting to suspect that it might’ve been dubbed over, ah, well.
The Directing was pretty bad as well but I’ve still seen worse I’m writing a very short review for a reason, theres just not a lot to talk about It’s just your average, low budget slasher-comedy The only real reason anyone should watch it is for the amazingly weird half hour that’ll leaving you laughing your ass off while trying to figure out what’s going on

Arthur “The Professor” Holmwood: a smart dude, and a cripple, gets annoying and Emo towards the end, stabbed to death with a crucifix

Mina Murray: A collage student, and intern on the flight team, we never find out what happened to her, never became a vampire, but was attacked and apparently killed by Coolio the vampire.

Reginald “Humvee” Parker: Yeah, a big strong, angry and racist black guy, seems to be pretty stupid as well.... Blown up when the ship explodes.....

Fransisco “187 Brett: Stoner Stoner, stoner, stoner and its Coolio Weird man, used to be really smart, until he found pot.... manages to wake up evil vampires on a space ship Impaled through the stomach with a pool stick.



Aurora Ash: Bitch She should really learn when to shut the hell up Apparently vampires are attracted to her... kinda turns out to be a robot, and blows up also....

Anyways, a group of space salvagers find a abandoned space ship slowly drifting towards earth. And it turns out this ship is owned by Dracula While the crew is slowly being killed off or turned into a vampire themselves, they also have to find a way to kill him off for good













Review:
Well, what can I say? Dracula in space?? It sounded to good to be true, and It was Dracula is a rather unneeded addition to the alreadly suffering Vampire sub-genre. Hell, the only good thing about it was the fact that I was never bored during the movie. Now this movie must have some screwed up vampires, I mean they have to have a wooden stake driven through the heart right? Well, if so these guys got some weird ass hearts, I mean, take the captain’s death for example, he was stabbed in the back with a wooden pool stick Now normally this wouldn’t be such a problem, but he was stabbed in the waistline area Not near the chest, but the waist Yeah Not to much more to say about this waste of a budget....but....

The directing is pretty amateurish and unflattering to the extreme, and the amazingly cheesy and fake effects used for the space ship is horrible as well. As for the acting, Casper Van Dien is as usual hamming it up on the screen, and Coolio was just abysmal man Anyways as I have already stated, there is no need to have to watch this movie unless you’re either a die hard Vampire fan or a Coolio fan (anyone?).

Review:
Well this is an extremely hard to find movie. I think I might have found out why..... Anyways well now that you’ve got the plot, it’s a really weird movie. It looks cheap its really stupid the “actors” can’t “act” but..... it still is good old fashioned slasher cheese You see the background music is so irritating that you just either want to break your T.V. or you laugh like hell This movie is almost impossible to find and I know why But it is still a fun movie to watch even if it sucks really, really badly I don’t know if I hated it or loved it, but I am really stuck with that so I am gonna continue with the review here. I have just realized how lucky I am to have this as it will probably never get to see a DVD release Cool I worst thing about this the fact that only 4 people were killed with the actual Sledge Hammer The rest were just stabbed

Review:
Yes, I decided to finally review the sequel to the movie that started one of my favorite slasher waves, Scream. And is it as good as the original? No but pretty damn close This movie has it all Suspense, good characters, great directing, a good cast, so why isn’t it as good as the original? Simple It lacked the gore that the first one had (even if that wasn’t a lot) Yes this movie is full of non gory killings In fact I think there was only one scene of gore in the film The rest was just a lot of messy blood splatter But it also had a great pace, good twists that I didn’t see coming and a pretty good bodycount so lets movie on

Th directing is great for the most part, filled to the top with beautifully shot scenes, and builds up a great level of suspense The acting is equally stuffed with greatness as the actors all really fit the parts they got

I believe this film MUST be watched by all fans of film, horror or not

(Sorry it was so short)

Well what a waste of fucking money This is a horribly boring bloodless “slasher” movie with very little going for it. Lets start out with the positives, well the acting isn’t horrible and it is a newish twist to the “slasher” genre and that’s about it....

Now, on to the negatives, damn, well it dos’nt even feel like a horror movie do to the fact that there is no gore and all the killings are done with a fucking electrical dart gun Everyone of these characters are easily hated and white trash pieces of shit The directing is pretty stupid and rather felt like a wanna be home movie. The acting is pretty bad as well as good, with there being only one actual professional actor, the rest seemed high for most of the movie It is incredible stupid and boring and the actors looked very uncomfortable with the parts they were given.

I would never recommend this unless you run out of sleeping pills and need a substitute. This is a waste of time and money, so do your selves a favor and burn any copy of this film now

Soon everyone except for Mark is brutally hacked, burned, and torn apart. How Mark managed to not get killed, even though he was passed out form drinking in the middle of the cabin is beyond me Not much later another group of teens come up on the cabin to see if they missed last nights party. (I think) What i cant figure out is how a class of twenty or so people is sopposed to fit in a small cabin... What else i cant get is when the second group see Derrick and Steve's car on the side of the road but don't stop to see why the car is there Maybe there all just stupid Anyways the second group starts getting killed off in various non gory ways, starting with Carlo, who is drowned in a bathtub Now why would a empty cabin have a bathtub full of water in it? Lionsgate has really sunk low with this release Another thing i cant understand is when Marla is murdered why dosn't anyone hear her There where two people in the kitchen right below her This is a rather bad movie which becomes even worse with the horribly stupid ending Don't watch this unless your really bored Not worth the money to rent/buy this

Review:
Wow, I'm surprised by this movie. I mean look at it's budget and the horrible camera they used to make the film. I surprised it was as good as it was! I came into this movie thinking it was a low budget slasher, I was wrong, The best way to describe this film would be....umm...think Evil Dead but with a lower budget bad gore effects and worse actors, and well thats pretty much how the film turned out. But honestly many people would hate this movie, it really is no more than a blatant Evil Dead rip off with out a good camera, I mean it looks it was sot on video for shame! Our director tries to make the film artsy, and well it's works some of the time, other times it leaves you disorientated and confused. I really can't write too much for this film though, its only 51 minutes long and thats including the opening and ending credits! The funny thing is I thought I was going to hate this when it started, I mean it I saw the opening credits say "A Sub Rose film" and followed by "Marketed By: Shoestring Films" I really thought it was going to suck! But luckily I continued to watch it to find that the hidden gem , Sub Rosa Films, I forgive you for releasing Razorteeth.

The directing as I've mentioned above is pretty good for the budget, but Jerry O'Sullivan seems to have tried to make this artsy, which in my opinion was not a very good idea. Now for the acting.... well... it sucked, it right out reeked of Theater Group acting, and thats not a good thing! But then again they didn't have the best of scripts in this. Overall I guess o can recommend this to any hardcore fan of the Evil Dead series or anyone who doesn't mind seeing a short, campy, cheesy slasher flick.

A gory dead body, a dismemberment, a gory severed head, some guts,the effects are fairly bad though.

Review:
Now, I’ve read a ton of horrible reviews and one, yes ONE semi-positive review for the Australian slasher flick and I’m afraid to say that I agree with the negative reviews a lot more than anything else You see this film probably would’ve been Pg-13 if not for the swearing in it, and thats a huge problem, I mean hell, we don’t watch these movies for the original plot and the awesome acting, no we want to see gore, well this really just doesn’t deliver with well anything. I mean the acting is horrible from almost all of the actors with the exception of Jessica Napier, who plays Jennifer, damn the last movie I saw her in was Cut Ahh well, the weirdest thing about this movie and what’s probably the most shocking is that it looked very good technically, I mean the movie was shot in like Cinemascope and the directing is delightful and easy on the eyes Really there is not a lot to say about this movie, it is a plot hole ridden carcass of a film where not only are the plot holes very well noticeable but overly stupid ( I guess you could say “like all plot holes”). But I’m finding it harder and harder to give longer reviews to movies. Why? Because they are so fucking predictable and unoriginal Well, I’m going to wrap up this here review seeing as I’ve already gone through everything worth it. I guess I could recommend this to hardcore slasher fans and if your Australian then it’s like your duty to your island....ermm.... country to watch this, but otherwise count yourselves lucky and skip it

He then realizes that maybe he should’ve taken a better look at the past, as it seems to be taking a better look at him!








Review:
Ladies and Gentlemen, Uwe Boll! I am surprised as hell to see this turned out to be pretty good. I always told everyone the Uwe was NOT a bad director and this he’s proved me right! This is by no means a horror movie, and it’s a lot different than what the back of the cover says, it’s less of a revenge flick and much more of a head trip to Boll land. I mean, I really didn’t see the twist coming, it surprised the hell outta me! Really, it did! Now this may just be because I’ve yet to see a different movie with the same twist. Uwe shows that he can be a good director, just like I always said he was (NOT sarcasm, I really defend the dude). There are some scenes that are simply beautiful to look at (the scene with the flare flying through the woods via flare gun) and some scenes that are very...well outright amateurish (when the camera goes in like stop motion and blurs the actors). Now this is going to be a very short review because anything I say might give away the plot, so if you’ve already seen this and are just mildly irritated that I don’t go into more detail about the plot, I am sorry! The acting is good for the most part, except fr the occasional over acting brought to us by Patrick Muldoon. Now if only Uwe himself could read this and know that he has an honest fan of his work. But here’s a tip man. You gotta stop with these based on video game movies, I’m sorry but there’s only so many video games worth making into movies these days! I guess readers will also be glad to know that this is one of his only films that is NOT based on a video game either! I can recommend his to fans of thrillers and anyone who wants to take a headlong trip to Boll land!






Gore:
A gory dead body and some blood, disappointing.


T&A:

Grizzly Park

Grizzly Park:

Director: Tom Skull

Characters:

Ranger Bob: Yes, the main character, and the only survivor. Seems he trained the bear and it eats everyone, at least it was a cool movie until that twist, at least it was a unseeable one...

Brian: The rick kid, really annoying and I don’t like him. Lucky for me he gets ripped up, and has both his arms torn off!

Ty: The token black guy, stole money from old people, gets caught in a hunting trap and is eaten by a bear.

Lola: A Latino girl who was caught during a drug raid, no she was not using the drugs though. One of the only likeable characters in the movie, sad to say she doesn’t make it all the way through.

Candy: No, I won’t say anything, just annoying!

Patrick: Got caught impersonating a cop, dresses up as a bear to scare people and ends up with half a head!

Kiki: A Asian chick who poisoned her mom, decides to take a short cut and ends up being eaten by wolves.

Bebe: An annoying stupid chick, at least until you see the gay twist. Gets an implant ripped out, yes, I’m serious.

Michael: The white trash guy, he pretends to be racist but really isn’t, and as unusual as it is he becomes one of the few likeable characters in this movie. He is sadly, eaten.





Plot:
A group of young delinquents are serving community service by helping to clean up a park. But little to they know that the park is more dangerous then ever imagined, with escaped serial killers, killer wolves and a huge ass kicking grizzly bear! Will anyone survive this bloodbath?




Review:
I’m surprised!
This went from a mildly boring movie to a crazy and entertaining creature feature! I’ve heard very little about this movie so I had no expectations and that might be why I liked it so much. It’s got different characters, not the usual stereotypical dusche bags. It’s got some great atmosphere and some nicely done gore. Actually, I thought it was a little funny that the movie had a lot of actual gore but very little blood and on top of that only three on screen deaths and only one of them is caused by the bear! Some of the deaths surprised me because the few characters that I found likeable were killed off way before the people I really hated! The movie looks like it had a nice big budget and I really appreciate that because the last two killer bear movies (Grizzly Rage and Savage Planet) looked like they had no budget at all, so that helps. But a mild warning to you, the plot twist at the end is rather weird and hard to understand, to be honest I’m still trying to work it out...

The directing is very stylist and well done. With good camera angles, nice crane work and some vibrant color contrasts, Tom Skull really outdid himself and I can’t wait to see what he comes up with next! The acting is good for the most part, a few forced dialogue but for the most part very average. I’d recommend this to anyone who enjoys the occasional creature feature or at least the first GOOD killer bear movie since the 80's, check it out, you will not be disappointed!







Gore: A chunk of a head, a head ripped in half, a person ripped in half, a ripped out implant, some severed limbs, and some more! Good stuff!


T&A:
Nope.


Bodycount:8



Final Rating: 3.5/5
