Maniac

Sat, 3 Jan 2004 13:27:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - As hard as it is for even myself to believe, I actually had never seen this film until last night!! I have seen just about every genre,(and sub-genre) horror film made in the last 30 years or so. Or so I thought. I actually have heard of...

Madman

Tue, 28 Oct 2003 23:49:50 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - In going through my movie collection the other night, I ran across a tape that I had long forgotten about. And that tape is called Madman. I rented this tape yrs ago, and made a quick copy of, as I do most films I rent. Just wanted to keep...

Sisters of Death

Tue, 21 Oct 2003 22:09:02 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - I have a question? Where is the oddest place you ever bought a vintage movie? In my case it was the goodwill (no, I'm not poor). I was in the goodwill in my town last week looking for a cheap jacket to "tear up" at work, and as I walked by t...

The Slumber Party Massacre

Sat, 18 Oct 2003 11:37:16 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - As a big time slasher film fan of the early 80's variety, I had to write a piece on this film. 1982 didnt seem like the year of the "slasher" as did 80' and 81'. By the time 1982 rolled around, the slasher genre was nothing more than a never endi...

I Spit on Your Grave....interesting movie.

Sun, 12 Oct 2003 15:46:35 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - I Spit on your Grave (1978) has long been considered one of the most reviled films ever made. And rightly so. A film where a woman is gang raped repeatedly is never a film that is widely accepted and "liked" by many, if anyone at all. But exploit...

New York Ripper

Sun, 12 Oct 2003 10:43:03 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - Lucio Fulci's New York Ripper, for alot of his casual fans, marked the last film seen of his "big five". I am alluding to his 5 late 70's and early 80's films that he is most known for, and what his "legendary" status in the horror world is based on. Th...

Cannibal Holocaust...sorry, off topic...but no title on Epinions.

Tue, 30 Sep 2003 22:41:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - I want to first state that I highly recommend this film. But I want to give a few words of advise to anyone reading this who is not familiar with this film and/or genre. I had never seen this film til the other day, and in the days leading...

Don't be fooled by the title. It has nothing to do with a phone...lol

Sat, 27 Sep 2003 23:29:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - First off, the title of this film has always perplexed me (as do alot of films)in that, it has virtually nothing to do with a phone whatsoever. In my never ending quest to track down and buy these "childhood favorites" of mine, I finally landed...

Do you have to be very smart? Or very dumb to "get" this film??

Sat, 27 Sep 2003 12:02:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - Where to begin?..... Liquid Sky is considered a cult classic. I honestly would like to meet this "cult". I was watching a film called Alice, Sweet Alice recently and was so impressed with Paula Sheppard, as Alice in that film, that I did a...

Burial Ground

Fri, 26 Sep 2003 23:49:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - This film seems to draw extreme reactions out of people. I have actually read where others thought that this was the worst film ever made. I respectfully disagree. Burial Ground is another in the long line of these italian zombie/horror/e...

Nightmare(1981)...does anyone remember this film??

Sun, 21 Sep 2003 11:45:50 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - 1981 must have been the year of the "slasher". If you look back, so many slasher films came out in this time frame. Friday the 13th made its debut in 1980, along with Maniac, Madman, part 2 in the Halloween series, My Bloody Valentine, and countless ot...

House on the Edge of the Park: Does it live up to the hype??

Sat, 20 Sep 2003 23:17:22 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - Does it live up to the hype?...hmmmm. Interesting question. Interesting movie as well. As a lifelong horror fan, I recently realized I was a "closet" exploitation film fan as well. I Spit on Your Grave was the first exploitation film I saw, even...

One of THE most underappreciated films EVER.

Sat, 20 Sep 2003 17:59:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - I am truly shocked this film has not recieved more attention and high praise that it truly deserves. Maybe it's because it's an early 70's entry with virtually no gore scenes. Maybe because it doesnt have naked chicks running away from some twi...

Truth or Dare: It hasn't aged well.

Fri, 19 Sep 2003 23:19:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - This film has always held a somewhat "special" place in my heart. I was about 13 when this film came out, and I was in the midst of my early-teen-rent a different horror flick-every-weekend-phase. I can honestly remember watching this film abou...

City of The Living Dead (aka) The Gates of Hell.

Fri, 19 Sep 2003 17:16:02 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - Lucio Fulci always frustrated me. He never seemed to make a "complete" film. And Gates of Hell is no exception. Gates of hell was made in 1980.....the hey-day of the italian gore and exploitation film boom. It centers around a small villag...

Banned in America...It should be banned PERIOD!

Thu, 10 Jul 2003 17:31:57 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - I'll start right off admitting that i am off topic on this one. I am reviewing the original of the...

Why is this movie so forgotten about??

Sun, 20 Apr 2003 13:51:17 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - I saw Coogan's Bluff a few years ago for the first time on one of those "Eastwood Wekkends" on TBS. After sitting through a few of his speghetti westerns, this film came on. Judging by the first few scenes, it didnt look that good and was about to...

We all know this film as "Buried Alive"

Sat, 19 Apr 2003 14:26:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - This has always been one of those few movies that has always stayed with me. I saw it as a kid and have been looking for it for years.

It went by Buried Alive back in the 80's and I cant understand why it has so many alternate titles now...

Why does everyone love this movie so much??

Sat, 12 Apr 2003 10:43:54 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author rogue562 - I just found out recently that I have been a Giallo fan for some time now. As a youngster, I saw a bunch of these italian horror films and just recently I have found out they they are considered the "Giallo" genre.

My introduction to this...
