I'm a a fan of the first film as well. the birthing sequence,is STILL effective. The visual effects are cheesy as hell,The makeup effects,adequate to very good.(the birthing)but I thought the script worked,despite the film's flaws.

David,I understand where you're coming from,when you envision more violence than there really is.This could be such an instance. But someone told me that the Prism tape might actually run a little faster. Maybe it was transferred at a slightly faster speed to save tape? The director on AB's commenta...

Thou Shall Not Kill...Except DVD CUT?

I just scored the Thou Shall Not Kill DVD for 14 bucks U.S,new. I've always liked the movie,since I first saw it on the Prism VHS tape. But I seem to recall more carnage the first time around. Is Anchor Bay's version cut? I know there was an R-rated version, that was in theatres, in the 80s. It woul...

Shane,man,You really know how to punish yourself. There are Dominatrixs for this sort of thing.Then again,they're not as cheap as a bad movie.

It opened in the cinema right next to me. I won't even bother. Especially not with Versus,Devil's Backbone,From Hell,Pulse and Ichi the Killer at my local Film Festival. Soul Survivors most likely won't even merit a video rental.

Ebert thumbed down a Spike Lee film? It boogles the mind! However, I agree that Ebert should stay away from horror films, altogether. When you have a blatant condescending atittude toward an entire genre,it's best to do you're viewers(or readers)that one favour. And his horror film reviews do reek o...

Ebert is a fucking P.C hypocrite, of the worst kind. If a film is directed by a new talent who happens to be a visible minority, he'll praise it, even if it's a total piece of crap.

I saw this one at Fantasia this year. Sorry to burst your bubble,but in my humble opinion,it's not very good. In fact a lot of people there, thought it sucked. It's about a brother and sister pursued by a Demon Gargoyle,after they see it dump a body down a shaft. A couple nice creepy moments in an a...

Don May doesn't bad mouth the Festival,itself. He just dwells(too long,too hard)on the few shit disturbers there were. In fact his last few posts(on Mobius) don't say much of anything positive or really negative about the fest itself,just his boring encounters with drinking and fighting. If this is ...

Before a couple reviews,my opinion of the fest. A lot of harsh things were said on the Mobius home video forum by Don May Jr about Fantasia film goers being inconsiderate idiots. SOME were. NOT all. I heard him and annoying fat ass Moriarity(from ain't it cool.com)talk trash about noisy people,over ...

By far the biggest disappointment was Olaf Ittenbach's Legion of The Dead. The audience was actually turning on him,during the Q&A session, afterwards. Ittenbach even remarked badly to one rather condescending question;"Was the bad acting intentional?"With a charming "Fuck You!&qu...

This film was pretty good, for a teen slasher. I'd say we should wait for a more complete version. Or find out more about the Spanish version.

There's a sequal to this one. Battle Royale 2. It might premiere at the Toronto film festival this fall. If so,there might be a small theatrical release to follow,like the first.

Glad to hear it. It'll be at a film festival,near me in a month or two. So I'll check it out on a big screen first. Sooo fucking glad it isn't like his Phantom of The Opera film.

I agree. What happened to issue 12? I have about 9 issues all told. With the film's release,they should release the series as a very large graphic novel. Looking forward to the movie.
