5.0 out of 5 stars Is it really that bad?, May 5, 2011

This review is from: Scream (DVD)

No it isn't. I know people who absolutely hate this movie. But there are fans of this movie - including me - who accepts it flaws and all. I have to say any horror movie that takes place in an Old West ghost town is good in my book. Plus it's an early 80's slasher. I can't hate 80's slashers. Anyway before I gush too much I want to get to the best feature on this disc. The audio commentary. The director explains what happens and who is doing the killing in this sometimes confusing movie. I used to get what happened in this movie when I was a teen renting this movie over and over from the video store. But I hadn't seen this movie over 15 years and I just watched it again recently and I was a little confused over who the killer was. The director explained who it was and why they were doing the killing. It may be a little far-fetched but it made me appreciate the movie even more. The story is about a group of vacationing water rafters who happen to take a little excursion to a deserted ghost town in Texas. They decide to stay overnight (big mistake because it is a spooky old ghost town). Soon they are being killed off one by one from some mysterious killer. Bad or good, you decide. For me I am going to stay away from any deserted Old West town at night.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cancelled, June 5, 2009

This review is from: Scream (DVD)

Godawful movie that I was very much looking forward to seeing on DVD, particularly for the director's commentary. Unfortunately, pre-orders were so low that the release has been cancelled. So, in a futile gesture, I will now pre-order it.

As for the film itself, so many adjectives apply. Dreamlike, boring, nonsensical, fascinating, impoverished, dull, misguided, spellbinding, asinine, inspirational...

This review is from: Scream (DVD)

'Scream' (1981), is supposed to be a slasher or thriller, but I didn't find it very thrilling. This movie is just plain boring. It lacked, in that the suspense lead-ups to the "scary parts" were exaggerated to a point where I lost interest, and the gory parts were very quick with minimal viewing.

In my own personal opinion, if the viewers were given more clearly graphic scenes to wet their appetites, it might not have been such a bad or boring movie. Sorry, but I rate this movie from 1-10 as 1. "Awful". A low budget movie. Though this movie was released in 1982, it is definitely a very 1970's type movie.
