Yep, that DVD company that just can't get it right strikes again!

WARLOCK MOON - a fun little independent 70's horror flick finally sees the light of day on DVD. And thanks to Shriek Show, the version we now have is CUT! Over 10 minutes of the film are cut out! Unbelievable! Thanks Shriek Show - for nothing!

Do not support this shoddy release. Seek out the old UNCUT vhs version from Unicorn Video instead.

I really don't like repeating myself but yeah, this DVD is missing several minutes of footage and basically everything I said about the Hell High DVD applies here as well, except this time I can not recommend the purchase of this release one bit. As of this writing, Media Blasters have released six Joe Bob Briggs DVDs, and of those six, two of them (Hell High and this one) are missing several minutes of footage as well as the Joe Bob commentary which accompanies this footage. Since the only reason anybody would really want to buy these DVDs is for the Joe Bob commentary, I consider this a very big negative. Somebody in the quality control department is obviously sleeping on the job at Media Blasters, and with three more Joe Bob DVDs slated for release before the end of this year, I fear for my fellow Joe Bob fans.

Avoid this DVD and tell Media Blasters you'll continue to avoid their future releases until they get it right.

The good news is that there is a Joe Bob Briggs commentary at the beginning of the film. The bad news is that without it, the movie isn't worth watching. The movie starts out talking about deviant behavior such as incest, cannibalism, and homosexuality. (Don't shoot me, I'm just the messenger.) Joe Spano, plays John, a colorful character who role plays and does bad accents (This is the good part of the film.) He ends up taking his gf to an abandon spa that still has old Mrs. Abercrombi still living there...or is she?

The movie includes a couple of ax murderers, some bad camera angles, and near zero special gore effects. It certainly has potential as a Rob Zombie remake and it could be done rather cheaply and done well also. Sorry, but this is not a cult classic or drive-in classic.

No f-bombs. No sex. No nudity. Laurie Walters does show a lot of leg in one scene after an attack. Was that an upskirt?

I liked the movie.

As no other reviewers said, there were twists in the story that made it interesting. Not much gore, bad language, or nudity, which is a minus. It was good vs evil, but who was good and who was evil?
