search "Toxie's Triple Terror vol. 2" on amazon DVDs...it's a series of 3 disc sets, each featuring 3 Troma releases. Chillers is on volume 2. Each boxed set is crazy inexpensive...got mine at Best Buy for 9.99

Daphne: Well, I've watched the film over and over again, and have to say that it's just compelling. Especially that Jesse Emery, the young hero, what a talent! I wonder what he's doing these days?

Sohini: Well, Daphne, I bet his friends are incredibly proud of him. In addition to being adorable on-screen, Jesse is truly a talented actor. This movie is worth watching just for young Mr. Emery's performance.

This is one of those great movies that you have to see a couple of times to get the full effect. I would have given it 5 stars if Jesse Emery had gotten more screen time.

Please put this West Virginia Daniel Boyd classic "Chillers" On DVD>So spread the word.Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought Jesse Emery exuded a raw sexual power that is incredibly unusual for an 11 year old. I have had to purchase 5 copies of this movie because the tape wears out at about the 800th viewing. If anyone has any info on this movie being released on DVD, let me know. I need a good screen shot for my artist to complete my Jesse Emery portrait tattoo.

This movie is awesome! Actually, it's pretty boring and it was a big disappointment when I first saw it. I learned to love it after the first five minutes. If you love B-movies, you must see this. Don't let the other customer review spoil your opinion of Chillers. Watch it. You'll love it!!!

A group of five passengers are waiting for their bus as they tell each other ghost stories. The first story deals with a swimmer who has been in love with a dead swimmer all the time, second story has a young boy who has been on a camping trip with his friends as he finds himself in what Weird Al Yankovich refers to in his song from the 3D album "Nature Trail to Hell". Third story has a woman who meets a late night anchor, only he is a vampire then with the fourth story has a man who has the gift to bring the dead back to life including his dead brother and the final story is about an Aztec curse.

A rather decent attempt to be a Tales From The Crypt and Creepshow style horror anthology, this is one of the better Troma distributed efforts so far. There's the typical low budget acting with some ok make-up and production values, but there is an ok twist in the end.

Close but no cigar.

Chillers was Danny Boyd's first crack, and probably his most well-known. It is a series of horror vignettes told by a group of stranded travellers in an Appalachian bus station. This movie doesn't have the tongue-in-cheek quality of Space Preachers, nor is it of the same quality as his poignant Paradise Park. Performances are good, but not up to the cast's potential (as I said with Space Preachers, they are so much better on stage). Some vignettes (like the Indian Burial Mound) are extremely well done, while others (the pool) are - on the whole - tedious. However, this film becomes more entertaining with each viewing, so I will recommend it.

This is with out a doubt one of the worst movies I've ever seen..These people who left all these raving reviews must have been part of the making of this trash. And whats up with these ppl talking about that kid like if he's the greastest actor ever! Thats just f***kin strange cause this is the only movie he ever made and he wasn't even good in this one!

CHILLERS is an ultra-cheap film, even lower than an Ed Wood movie but Ed Wood movies are fun, this is CRAP. There is not one bit of originality in it, everything in it is like scenes jerked out from Sesame St.
