Editorial Reviews

Review

"What lifts it above most low-budget horror comedies (Troma-tized or not) is the loopy, off-kilter humor director/co-scenarist Alex Orr and collaborators bring to the table. There's something charming about the feature even at its most cheerfully tasteless" --Dennis Harvey, Variety

Product Description

A kindergarten teacher invents a car that runs on human blood to combat high gas prices in BLOOD CAR, a horror/comedy from first time director Alex Orr. In the first feature film from Fake Wood Wallpaper Films, narrative conventions and predictable, by-the-book plotlines are left behind in favor of an absurdist look at a future in which no one drives due to $40-a-gallon gasoline prices. Both a satire on our voracious habit for oil as well as a cleverly structured horror film, BLOOD CAR will make you cringe and laugh at the same time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cruisin' for a Bruisin', July 29, 2008

By	Captain Insanity (NY) - See all my reviews

So silly it can't help but be hilarious!!
A vegetarian develops a car that runs on human blood,
due to soaring gas prices ($40 a gallon)
For the lack of settings, special eff..... well much of anything really,
the story is suprisingly enjoyable, ridiculously hilarious, and above all else it delivers!
Nudity is abundant, and the gore (or lack there of) is silly at best.
That being said,
This one comes highly recommended for fans of horror/comedy!!
Funnier than anything from Troma,
even without the campy special effects & surplus of gore.
The conclusion (especially for a horror/comedy) is mind-blowing,
and you're GOING TO feel guilty for laughing.
Trust me.

MORAL OF THE STORY:
Human life can be measured by the gallon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesomely brutal!, October 4, 2007

By	R. Bexley "HogAss" (Atlanta, GA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I saw an early release of this flim by Alex Orr & Co and it is terrific. Terribly funny throughout, the filmakers know who their audience is and they love them. Equal parts comedy and bloodsport, anyone who loves to laugh and cringe at the same time will not be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great movie. Hilarious and shocking. Loved it., October 28, 2007

By	B. Sloan - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I recently saw this movie at a local indie film fest and I thought it was the best movie of the whole weekend-long fest. This is a great horror-comedy. I loved it. Shocking humor, hot girls, blood, and [...]! What more could you want in a horror movie? I saw it with 2 of the actors and the director in the audience. They were very cool and nice. They even gave me a poster for the film. This movie is kinda underground and might be hard to find in the video chains but just buy it here on amazon, it is worth it.
