Jack in a box

Advantages: Good and fun
Disadvantages: Very much of one genre

If puppet master is what you like then check this stuff out. The entire box set is a great and cheap way to get all te puppet master dvd action you could get. The quality of the dvds are good and the extras are as you would expect. This DVD is just what all Puppet Master fans would want. Remember these DVDs are eighteens and so neccessarily any potential buyers must be eighteen or over. I really enjoyed these films but they are very much part ...

Review of Puppet Master (Box Set) (DVD)

Pieces

Advantages: Alright slasher
Disadvantages: It's been done before. Lynda Day

It's 1942 a young boy is playing peacefully I his bedroom. However, somehow it's a jigsaw of a naked woman he has and his mother is annoyed at discovering this and finding heaps of pornography hidden all over his bedroom. She demands that he goes and gets her the matches so she can burn it all but the weird child being a true blue porn fan instead gets an axe and brutally, albeit very unrealistically, kills his mother. He is then found in the blood ...
...Many years later and we have a random scene of a woman skating about on some University grounds before she crashes into two men carrying a mirror across a road. That scene seems pointless and is forgotten. But then another young woman is sitting on the lawn reading her book when she is disturbed by a man with a chainsaw cutting at the hedge. Annoyed she asks him will he be long and he rudely replies by cutting her head of and taking it away with ...

Camping in blood...literally

Advantages: Entertaining in a really bad sort of way
Disadvantages: Dreadful story, acting, cinematography, script...

Following a visit to Camp Blood, during which she and her friends were attacked by someone wearing a clown mask, Tricia has been spending time locked up on a psychiatric ward, accused of having killed her friends. Although she was the sole survivor, it seems proof is thin on the ground, so Tricia is allowed to go free - but her psychiatrists think it would be a good idea for her to face the problem. This involves helping a creepy director to make ...
...and they head over to Camp Blood, safe in the knowledge that the person in the clown mask is dead. But is she really? If so, why are people dying horribly again? . As the sequel to Camp Blood, one of the worst budget horrors I've ever had the pleasure of watching, I knew what to expect, although I did hope that the story was going to be a little different. Unfortunately, it isn't really - in some parts we actually have flashbacks to the original ...

Review of Camp Blood 2 (DVD)

Sorry I sawed... ahem, watched it!

Advantages: Erm... it's very short! The fight scenes are fairly cool too.
Disadvantages: Utterly horrendous in just about every way!

...latest DVD he'd received - Sawed (also known as Devon's Ghost: Legend of the Bloody Boy). STORYLINE The plot is flimsy, to say the least, but the gist is that 10 years ago, in a small town in America, a 7 year old boy went missing. He was presumed killed by his drink and drug addled parents, who became minor celebrities through the media circus surrounding their trial, until they too went missing, along with their high-priced defence lawyer. Thus ...
...reputed to have killed his parents with a baseball bat. The film starts in the same town at the present day, just before The Bloody Boy returns and goes on a killing spree. Somehow, having read a blurb that was probably similar to mine, my idiot best friend still saw fit to add this to the list of dodgy, second-rate B-film horrors on his rental list! To be fair, had a budget of some description been spent on the film and thus a partially competent ...

Review of Sawed (DVD)

The Dummy

Advantages: Funny acting
Disadvantages: poor death scenes

...still hold your attention throughout. The Dummy sits on the line for this one with a mix of funny and entertaining scenes as well as some pretty poorly acted ones. The acting quality ranges drastically throughout and features some actors who seem as if they might get somewhere half decent and others that seem to just be friends of the the director. The story is simpl and has been heard before in lots of films ecpecially budget ones. A guy's dummy ...
...You find out the doll was carved from voodoo relics but there is no more of a story than that. That wouldn't matter if the film was a particularly grusome or scry one. But it has neither of those qualitys. With too few death scenes and no suspense, this is far from a horror movie.(If you exclude the actor/director/writers/producers unGodly topless scene) Having said all that there are some good points. The bad acting makes it comical and the sets ...
