gmac- Yes, "grandfather" simply stood there in awe, thinking the creature was a diety, not realizing it was blood thirtsy predator. Actually, that scene in particular, had some impressive cinematography, with the fog covering the lake, and the creature disappearing in the water, eerie stuff :-) That movie used to freak me out when I first saw it, & then watched it a few times thereafter, because I couldn't understand wth it was, until my Mom explained the word "Mutation" to me, & all about mercury in waters, etc. So, I used to call it the bloody monster bear before she filled me in. My favorite part is when the little baby blood monster bear cubs started gwawing on poor, trusting Talia Shire's neck(go figure). "Adriaaaannn!" That part I thought was a bit goofy, because whether they were mutant baby bears or not, what stupid twit is going to carry them like a real child, when they EAT people?? Unless there are vegan bears out there somewhere....dunno.

Inspired by the recent online reviews of a new edition of TROLL 2 coming out on DVD, I've decided to submit a review of highly entertaining "bad film", that deserves a DVD release. DEATH SPA -1988 Weird things begin happening at the Starbody Health Spa. A mysterious force locks sexy -(and naked)-Brenda Bakke in a stream room and turns up the heat, causing chemical burns and temporarily making her blind-(she spends most the film with her eyes bandaged). Her boyfriend and club owner Michael feels responsible. Michael's creepy ex-brother-in-law David-(well played by the late Merritt Butrick)-is the computer wiz, who designed the unique system., that runs the place. David is grilled about the possible flaws, that could have caused this. As the days pass, club members start to die in gory, horrific ways. It becomes obvious early on that something supernatural is the cause of this. Michael's late wife-(also David's twin sister...Hmmmm?)- commited suicide a year ago, by pouring gasoline over herself, and setting fire-(shown in flashbacks). With the choas going on at the club, they do the most logical thing to do....invite everyone to a costume party at the club! This sets up a nice bloodbath ending, when we see the real culprit. Honestly, this film has soooo many WTF moments, it's funny. Mixed in with all the "where in the hell did that come from" gimmicks, we're treated to lots of silly 80's Flashdance aerobics, equally lame music, and stunningly bad dialogue. Pretty Chelsea Field, in an early film role, asks a guy who's lifting weights, to do a few more repetitions for her, he refuses and says "You're VHS and I'm Beta"...I couldn't resist the urge to yell "fag", at the TV screen My take 2.5/5, inspite of everything wrong with it, the movie is entertaining as hell. I would dearly love to see a nice uncut DVD release. I have the uncut/uncensored Gorgon/MPI video. Feel free to chime in ;D I forget to mention-(while correcting my multiple spelling mistakes)- that Ken Foree is in this too.

Frankenstein. Hey......... Its Halloween. Even though you can see the lines of the curtains that represent the sky in the graveyard and in the mountain scene, its still numero uno with me. I still laugh every time the good doctor talks about Fritz and the monster. " He always hated Fritz because he tormented him so. " As if that were reason enough to hang him. A+

Raiders of the Living Dead. Kind of hokey, but better than most. A reporter runs across some zombies. He runs into a doctor who listens to his story and sorta believes it and tells the story to his grandson. Anyway, the kid has invented a laser gun made from 2 laser disc machines. Like I said, its kind of hokey. There's just too many unexplained things going on. 3 1/2 outta 5.

Puppetmaster VS Demonic Toys. It could have been good, but they cast Corey Feldman as the lead. The great grandson of the Puppeteer in the first Puppetmaster reanimates the puppets and makes a few changes after a fire almost destroys the puppets. This really wasn't what I was looking for, but I watched it anyway. ( Yep, I'm bored shitless. ) Could be time to dig out the Christopher Lee Dracula movies again.

Zombieland. Dubbed in German on Youtube. The images were reversed, so it looked like you were watching it in a mirror. Some trip ! I found out just how rusty my German was......... pitiful is all I can say. Like I said, I'm bored shitless, but this helped. I'm all pumped up, mixing caffeinated drinks and pain meds. So I got lots of energy, but I'm clumsy as hell. Someday I'll learn, but until I do I'll enjoy what's going on.

Night Of the Living Dorks. Yep, there's such a movie. High school losers become zombies and become more popular. One nice boob shot. Its more of a comedy than anything else. I give it a C- and only give it that for the boob shot. Not as bad as Die You Zombie Bastards, but just about as dumb.

Vampires : Los Muertos. OK, first of all, Jon Bon Jovi is laughable at best as a fierce vampire hunter. I had almost as hard a time buying into this as I did with James Spader as the last fierce vampire hunter. Is Mexico the new breeding ground for vampires ? Seems like there were alot of vampire movies made in Mexico. I dunno. Anyway, for the laughs, I give it a 2 1/2 and wish Chuck Norris would do one. I would believe him as a fierce vampire hunter as long as Johnny Depp played one of his p*ssy assistants. Just kidding !

Candyman 2: Farewell to the Flesh. I liked the first one better. Not enough Candyman in this one.
