Elastic Dawg Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 Let's look at... For those of you who don't know, Night Of Horror is a 1981 "horror" film by Curse of the Cannibal Confederates director Tony Malanowski. It's notorious for being...well, terrible. And very obscure. It's also distributed by Troma Entertainment, maker of fine films such as The Toxic Avenger and Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead. Even they admit it's one of the 5 worst movies in their library. We open with a cheesy early 80s computer graphic stating "the next wave in entertainment." Trust me, it isn't. Next, this "disclaimer" appears for about 40 seconds, telling us that this is "based" on a true story. This is the least insane part of the movie. The film begins with this shitty looking confederate soldier speaking through a Peter Frampton-esque voicebox for about a minute. These are supposed to be zombies. I think. Or ghosts. Oh boy, opening credits!!! And 70s soft rock!!! Then, we get some of the cast, and-HOLY SHIT, IS THAT TONY STARK? THE IRON MAN? Sadly, anything remotely that cool doesn't happen in the movie. Next comes inaudible bar banter about relationships or something. After about 6 minutes or so, we randomly jump cut to this winnebago. Then, the group of friends begin complaining over more shit that's impossible to understand (they're late?) We also learn that Steve, the Frank Zappa looking guy you'll see in the next shot, is in love with Colleen (pictured on the right above). Oh wait, did we mention his asshole brother Jeff yet? (Absolutely not drunk.) After meeting up, they all head out in the winnebago. This is followed by a 3 minute scene of nothing but driving with soft rock in the background. After the driving scene ends, we cut to Colleen and Steve in the back, making chit chat about Edgar Allen Poe for whatever reason. After we endure Colleen spending two minutes reciting a poem and more of Steve's thoughts, Jeff stops the winnebago for about five seconds to discuss a food break. This doesn't go over with Colleen and Susan, so they get back in. Right after that, we are spared another musical driving sequence in favor of, you guessed it, MORE BANTER! However, this part is different. We are introduced to the most sophisticated character yet, the smudge. He utters no dialogue during his short appearance yet his fine acting shows. (Academy Award material right there.) After more chit chat and nearly another driving sequence, we cut to Steve, who is showing Colleen and the Smudge his harmonica skillz. When he finishes, the Smudge vanishes and he begins making chit chat with Colleen again. Finally, they pull over because they thought they saw someone...but no one is there! That's right, folks. Something is actually happening in this movie. After twenty odd something minutes, something has happened. Oh wait, never mind. Guess what? More fucking driving sequences, that's what. Well, at least this time we get to see something happening in the car. Let's see what Colleen's doodling, shall we? ("Starring Leonard Nimoy as the Wolfman.") Of course, they pull over again. For some reason, Colleen senses something is wrong and Jeff and Susan begin rambling on about how some negative energy effected Colleen at a funeral or something. Then, Colleen ends up in complete darkness and begins yelling for no reason. It's pretty hilarious. Suddenly, the yelling has an effect, as a bush says some random gibberish to her. After this, we get to see the cameraman dicking around Steve walking around for about 5 seconds while the theme plays. Then it randomly jump cuts to Susan, Colleen, and Jeff talking about finding Steve and getting out of there. It's as out of place as it sounds. However, in a turn of events, Colleen doesn't want to leave, because, you guessed it, ghosts talked to her. Then Steve shows up, claiming he has seen one of the ghosts. After this, they go to a campfire and hold hands and recite wacky shit, because that apparently attracts ghosts. Then, we get to hear more of Steve's inner monologues while the ghosts banter on about some random shit that no one cares about with these obnoxious laser noises. After this, we get a montage of a Civil War reenactment. This is no ordinary montage though. It goes ON AND ON AND ON FOR 7 FUCKING MINUTES. It's at this point I question my sanity and faith in humanity. After this finally ends, we get to hear more ghost banter about shit no one cares about, laser noises included. Then they finally announce that Colleen was in love with one of the people they were rambling about in a past life. This saddens Steve. Not even joking. He gets disappointed over the fact that his crush WAS IN LOVE WITH A CIVIL WAR GENERAL IN A PAST LIFE. Nevertheless, he continues listening. ("I bet that bitch was all over Julius Caesar, too.") After what seems like an eternity of rambling, the ghosts finally announce that the general wanted a proper burial. So they give him one. After some blurry shots of darkness with the background music, we cut to Steve in the bar, talking to that guy from the beginning about Colleen. After presumably having enough, the random guy leaves. Then, a miracle happens. It ends. We get some credits, an out of work phone number, and the fact that it was photographed in Maryland USA: America In Miniature. What does it mean? Beats me. If you wish to view this film, it's available on YouTube in 8 parts. Warning you though, it's a pain to watch, especially with the padding and all. However, if you dig awful, awful, awful movies, go ahead and watch this. It's very hypnotic and mesmerizing. That's all for this review. See yall later.

Elastic Dawg Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 Inspired by Wumbo's music thread. I don't really watch movies that don't appeal to me so you might not see many negative reviews. Possession This movie's pretty awesome. Sam Neill and Isabelle Adjanj over-over-overact and spend half the movie yelling at each other for god knows what. It barely makes any sense, too. Specially the ending. Seriously, what the hell happened? Sam Neill like shot himself and, shit, just what. Still a kick-ass movie nonetheless. My sig was also taken from the movie, if you must know. OVERALL: 9 out of 10 Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer Horrifying movie, seriously. Based on the real-life monster Henry Lee Lucas, we get a look into a serial killer's everyday life. Did I tell you about his fucked up, incestuous best friend Otis? Yeah. This movie is all sorts of fucked up, but that just gets it higher on my list of excellent movies. Far from pleasant, but highly recommended. I don't know to who, though. OVERALL: 10 out of 10 The Boondock Saints Yes, this movie is admittedly stupid. But it's also cheesy, over the top fun. I especially enjoy Willem Dafoe's OTT acting. Also, Ron Jeremy randomly shows up at one point. What more could you want? I think my favorite part is when the boys break through the glass and start killing all of the gangsters. That's sort of awesome. OVERALL: 8 out of 10 Videodrome This my definition of a perfect film. It's surreal, morbid, disturbing, violent, trippy, etc...I love every single minute of it. It also pretty much created torture porn, more or less. (it's used as a plot point, mind you) There's this really cool scene where James Woods isn't wearing a shirt for whatever reason and he's feeling around in his chest and HOLY SHIT IT'S A VCR VAGINA. Definitely in my top 10 if not top 5 of all time. Long live the new flesh. OVERALL: 10 out of 10 So yeah, more to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70s Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Funny, was just about to make a topic just like this. Probably still will. Never seen any of these movies, but Videodrome is on my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clappy Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Saw bits and pieces of Possession and Videodrome. The Boondock Saints is absolutely amazing. Love it. Btw, contemplating making my own movie review thread, but I don't want to overpopulate the whole personal review trend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70s Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 To be fair I made a topic like this in December. Just never did anything with it, then deleted it. So I came before the trend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elastic Dawg Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 To be fair, 70s isn't lying. I think he was gonna review some Adele live DVD and Clerks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wumbo Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Nice to see I've inspired fellow members to review other things. I'll definitely come back to read more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70s Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 To be fair, 70s isn't lying. I think he was gonna review some Adele live DVD and Clerks. Yup. Still might do Clerks, I don't know about the Adele concert. But I'm going to go with the rest of this in my topic I'll create now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elastic Dawg Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 Think i'll do a few more. Jacob's Ladder Trippy psychohorror about a Vietnam vet experiencing horrific hallucinations of these demon like things. You ever see that effect where people shake their heads really fast? This movie created it, and is probably the only one to use it effectively. There's a particularly bizarre scene where he's at a party with his gf Jezzie when all of the sudden, BAM, DEMON RAPE! You have to see it to believe it. It's also a touching movie about letting go of the past and getting on with your life. Watch it, it's really excellent. OVERALL RATING: 10 out of 10 Nightdreams It's like porn, but it's not. The "plot" is that some scientists are experimenting on those nymphomaniac, feeding her horrific sexual fantasies, involving cowgirls and the Cream of Wheat guy. Not of this earth, but required viewing. It's about as erotic as Caligula. OVERALL RATING: 9 out of 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elastic Dawg Posted April 28, 2012 Author Share Posted April 28, 2012 Shivers You've probably never heard of this movie, which is a shame because it kicks so much ass. It's like Night of the Living Dead with T&A. And penis monsters. It's also got a great sense of humor (i'm hungry for love!). Poor David Cronenberg got mercilessly shit on for making "repulsive trash" when it came out, and even got kicked out of his apartment. It's gained a cult following over the years though, and it's critical reputation is getting better too. OVERALL RATING: 10 out of 10 High Tension Finished watching this one a few minutes ago, and i'm glad I watched it. It's quite disturbing and very well done. Even the twist ending (which some seem to really hate) I found pretty awesome, despite the fact that it creates a gaping plot hole. I have no idea why it's rated NC-17, though. It's honestly not that gruesome (but don't worry, there is some nice gore). Maybe i'm just desensitized. It does, however, have severed head masturbation, which is always a plus. In the end, it's all about lesbians. All in all, really, REALLY good French horror that's worth your time. OVERALL RATING: 8 out of 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elastic Dawg Posted May 27, 2012 Author Share Posted May 27, 2012 Bringing it bahk! Expect a review of Guinea Pig: Devil's Experiment sooner or later. btw, move this to movies, since that's more or less what i'll be reviewing here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
