Another surprise!

After having watched a fair number of Italian zombie films I assumed I had seen harshest of their harshest. I could not have been further from the truth. I do agree with Dr.Gor on the Inspiration part to the Blair Witch Project. However this left one hell of impact. I can say that the scenes in this film hit you on a deeper level. I was a bit shaken....and stirred. Again it should be understood that this is not for everyone, but for those that can handle it, Cannibal Holocaust has to be seen to be believed.

Eat it up!

While not exactly a straight zomibe film, its for sure a refreshing take on the genre. A bit of the story seemed off but aside from that it had many things going for it, plenty of gore and one hell of a funny dance number preformed by the dead, mocking the thriller dance moves. Over all it was quite enjoyable and had some laugh out loud moments.

Are you awake?

Ah where to begin. Not the first slasher film but for sure one of the most memorable. Freddy Kruger is the ultimate bad guy...one thats creative and not stupid. Although thru the years and sequels he became a bit of a joker the original was truly creepy. I spent a many hours myself afraid to fall asleep for I knew that my imagination coupled with this film would damn near kill me in my sleep. Although Last House on the Left was his most disturbing, Wes Craven's A Nightmare On Elm Street was a great achivement in horror films.

Now here is a new idea

This was one film that for sure had one great thing going for it....being original. No where else have I run across a creature feature that had anything on par with this. It was at time a bit choppy but otherwise the Creeper was a "scary as hell" creation. The not so happy ending was the other main reason I loved this film. Like many of the good horror that are overlooked this was near the top of my list.

Here ya go!

This was an unexpected treat. I have to say that even though I watched it on DVD it still had an impact. If you have the chance you need to find a copy on VHS and watch that. It has an really good effect that way. I will no doubt recommend this film to anyone who enjoys horror. Its not to often anymore that I have that tingle rush up my spine at the conclusion of a film but this reminded me of why I love horror films.
