Starts Off Well, but the ending is stupid., June 8, 2005
This review is from: Out of the Dark [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This film starts off about a few girls who work in a phone sex job together, and they have recieved some phone calls from a weirdo who ends up stalking some if them.
It turns out that the man stalking them is a phycho in a clown mask who calls himself Bo-Bo. One of the girls end up dead and a few suspects are presented as a guess for the audience of who done it?
It started off well, it was intereting, nothing to keep you on the edge of your seat, but it was doing ok untill the end of it. It really needed to be re-written and thought out, because during the film it's all kind of serios and you keep guessing as to who the killer under the mask is, and it just ends up all wrong and acted badly and ended badly in the end of it. It kind of builds up to a climax that just does not deliver in the end.
The movie stars a couple of people I didnt recignise, the ones I did where Karen black who plays the head owner of the phone sex company. Tracey Walter (Bob from "Batman" 1989) who plays the rough cop whose phycho enough himself to be the killer. Geoffrey Lewis (Tango & Cash) plays a drunken bum photographer angry at the leading role kid of the film, but I'd say he's just there to make you wonder if his modives are enough to make him murder?
Rent it if it intrests you, but you wont be kicking yourself if you never see it.

This Slasher isn't in the Woods but has plenty of Camp, June 13, 2010
This review is from: Out of the Dark [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I ran across this on Fearnet on Demand ,I read the cast and synopsis and Had to watch it.The cast consisted of.
Karen Black,Cameron Dye"the hunk from so many 80's teen movies" Divine "Playing a male character not his usual over the top larger than life drag Persona",Tab Hunter,Lanie Kazan and Geoffery Lewis ,Bud Cort and Paul Bartel.All the actors that would make a great camp movie/Campy Slasher flick I thought,and they did .
BoBo the clown is killing Phone Sex Girls .That's pretty much the synopsis.But in this long forgotten gem are some really hilarious lines,situations and a couple of good kills.
at the end of the day it's light on gore,that's ok it has all the other elements needed for this Genre recipe.
It's a Mystery and a pretty good one and will have you thinking everyone has a motive and is doing the killing....After all BoBo does wear a clown head and hands..Oh and there are lot's of T and A for the guys to ogle.
I wish this would come out on DVD soon..

Divines farewell ( last movie), July 16, 2007
This review is from: Out of the Dark [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I Had bought this movie at one time and have not watched it until tonight i am a big movie buff and have recently found a fondness for divine(Glenn milstead) we should never forget that he was born with a regular name and was proud of it but he was very fond of the name that grew from his talent that we all know and love as *Divine* as to what he was and still is. I wish that he could have had more parts in this movie, but i am so glad that i never parted or got rid of it as the credits are rolling you see at the end in memory of divine. if you have this movie and are a big fan of Divine and also Karen black dont part with this movie...
