Lucio Fulci The Murderer

Advantages: Unique Story (at the time)
Disadvantages: Annoying Camera work

Always ahead of his game Lucio Fulci plays himself in this amusing and gory movie. Basically Lucio is having issues with his work and personal life so seeks out a psychiatrist, who takes great interest in his problems. So much interest that he scampers off and kills people in the same way Lucio disposed of his cast in his movie. This time however there is no acting (not from Lucio's point of view) With each murder Lucio is put more and more in the ...
...works as a good reference to Fulci's work. Almost like a CV. I found the camera work a bit annoying, the filming looked cheap and was very bumpy, I think in his later films Lucio movied to Video but was not capable of providing the atmosphere with video as he did with film. Lucio was having issues with his Diabetes but still wanted to make films. This was the last of Lucio's memorable movies, the two that followed were very easily forgotton. Its ...

I'm a Man not a fish!

Advantages: Original story
Disadvantages: Animal Cruelty

Deep river savages is one of Lenzi’s earlier cannibal movies which delivers a cheesy mix of exploitation combined with a love story. Ivan Rassimov plays a photographer who when travelling up a river in South East Asia is set upon by a group of savages. The savages kill his guide and hold him captive, believing that he is a fish-like creature on account of his wet-suit and flippers. Eventually after long periods of torture and initiation rituals, ...
...a man, not a fish!", deep river savages, is a good instalment to Lenzi’s series of cannibal films. The gore effects, although not as bold as his later attempts, are good with tongue amputations aplenty. Some of the gore was even borrowed for his later movie "Eaten alive by the Cannibals". However most of the gore is unpleasant animal killings and cruelty, including a goat having its throat torn open, a crocodile having a dagger rammed into its brain, ...

One of the worst movies I have ever seen. Easily.

Advantages: Um....It's good if you like watching terrible movies.
Disadvantages: Everything?

Words can't describe this incoherent mess. This is agonising from the start. I'm the kind of person who loves camp B-movies but this is painful. Truly painful. The dialogue, the plot, the acting. Everything. Some special effects are surpisingly done considering this movies lack of budget. It has some sickening parts, many completely pointless. In one scene "F***" is said thirty times. I counted. The last five minutes is nothing. The movie actually ...
...zombie, or something. No idea. Nothing to do with the movie. The music is all death metal. Inaudible death metal. If you think you're man enough get it but geez...Urgh...Watch clips on youtube for a gist of it but oh god...I think I'm going to go get friendly with Mr Daniels. ...

Mods eating bad actors

Advantages: Barely watchable
Disadvantages: Bad acting etc. It's all in the review

Cannibal Terror is a 1981 French film directed by Alain Deruelle. Made during the era of cannibal exploitation films it is probably one of the worst ones I've seen. The film starts with very dully directed scenes of boats and stuff at a port accompanied by some of that upbeat Spanish music, you know the kind, they advertise tacos and stuff to it on T.V. all the time. Two crooks Mario and Roberto are robbing a boat and are conveyed as dumb couple ...
...just on the edge of cannibal country and they'd just love to put you in the soup." Mickey tells them in an overly cheerful voice as if presenting a children's TV show. Along the way the car breaks down and Mickey goes off to get some water. But she is attacked by a bunch of really unconvincing cannibals. Luckily she has a magic pistol that can kill three cannibals all standing side by side with one shot but alas cannibals come in more than 3s and ...
