Featured review
This was a great movie. It's underated by a lot of people. I believe that mostly every movie by TROMA is great. My all time favorite is "Mother's Day" it's the best horror film ever! The beginning of this film deals with a man and his son on a camping trip. The man is playing a game of "Hide and Seek" with the kid. And the man falls into a bear trap and dies after about 3 days. His last wish is that the kid does not starve so he tells is son Glenn to, well, eat him! And then the kid turns into an awful killing machine. Eating adults everywhre. And then we meet a man taking his family to visit an old army buddy who lives in the town where the children are being abducted (Tromaville as said on the box.) His daughter was abducted and Glenn made her his queen, you could say. But I'll let you see it yourself. Let me tell you the end of this film (as in Mother's Day) is a horror classic not to be missed by anyone. There is a warning on the front of the box that says it should not be watched by Preagnant women or people with Heart Conditions. It's all a hoax the film isn't that scary. But it shows what I like to call 80's nostalgia. It was the end of the Slasher films. Possibly this movie could be called "The Last Great Horror Film." I suggest that you go rent it first, and if you like it, it is available at Suncoast in the $9.99 section of the horror films. This is not the greatest horror film ever but it was made by the creator of the best horror film ever who is Charles Kaufman, creator of Mother's Day. His brother Lloyd Kaufman as well as Michael Herz produce this. It's a great film and I give it a 9 1/2 out of 10. Highly Recommended!
