Summary: so sick
Review: but so good. I borrowed it from a friend...I don't think I would pay for it, because I don't see myself ever watching it again because it was pretty twisted.
But, yeah, it was good, especially for a Troma release.

Summary: pretty lame
Review: Chad Ferrin wanted to shock his audience. He did not succeed. He did make a very sleazy picture, but it does not shock. Why not? Because he makes the mistake of trying to dIsguise his shlock-fest as some sort of psychological thriller and he is simply not up to the task. This film takes itself very seriously. However, the script is bad, the acting is worse, and the idea is only partially realized. I have no idea what in the world our anti-hero is thinking. The result is hokey melodrama of the worst sort.
The story is very simple. A man loses his daughter (whom he was molesting) in a car accident that also makes a vegetable of his wife. He is driven insane with loss and guilt and decides to kill people. Some of them deserve it, like the sicko nurse who takes care of his invalid wife, and some do not, like the bright-eyed prostitute who gets her face smashed into a table until there isn't much left of it. The guy playing the lead should never be allowed to act in any venue ever again. He is horrible.
This movie is just about filth and violence - which is fine, as long as it is honest about it. I like dark films. I like low budget films. But this film just don't cut it.
There are effective scenes; mostly the violent ones. But these scenes are only effective in the moment. Contextually, they are simply random acts of violence.
If you really like sleaze, go ahead and purchase it because you won't find it at many video rental stores and it's pretty cheap here. Just understand that you are buying PRETENTIOUS sleaze.
The best part of this flick are the flashbacks of the daughter who is supposed to be around twelve, but looks about thirty-five. Priceless!

Summary: Not the Howard McCain movie (i.e. not with Athena Massey)
Review: For some reason Amazon has mixed this up with the 1996 film "Unspeakable" aka "Criminal Pursuit" aka "Shadow of a Scream" (latter is the title of the VHS version that Amazon apparently DOES carry). This one's a totally different Troma slasher film.

Summary: Chad Ferrin's Unspeakable
Review: Grosses, sickess, one of the most disgusting movies I have ever had the pleasure of seeing. It was right on exactly the type of schlock that we expect from Troma! I highly recommend this movie to any true slasher fan.

Summary: Just plain pure crap...
Review: I am upset, cause I posted a comment on this film LONG AGO and it was NEVER POSTED. Was it perhaps because I wrote a bad review? Was it perhaps that it may have detracted people from purchasing this film? Well, guess what? I'm here to say ONCE AGAIN that UNSPEAKABLE is possibly the worst film EVER MADE. And if it's any consolation, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME. I did, and I want my time and money back! Though, one positive note, the extras are decent, and I must say, the director's short film was decent also. But to hell with it, the rest of it belongs in a toilet that hasn't been flushed in months. PERIOD.

Summary: COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER
Review: I know that one that played Barry Hell and it is my belief that he could have done a better job if he had just listened to some coaching instructions on acting. It just could have been a great one if things had been different! ! !

Summary: Its been cut!
Review: I saw this film under its alternative title of "The Unspeakable" on cable. This version has quite a number of cuts toward the end, so if you've seen the final scene with Athena Massey on cable, it won't be here. Other than looking at the incomperable Athena Massey with the less than usual amounts of clothes on, this film is the usual psycho fare. The twist is supposed to be that Massey's psycho cop boyfriend is to be compared to the thoughtful philosophical slasher, with us coming down on the side of the slasher. Unfortunatley, cutting Massey's final scene definatley makes this much less valuable than it would have otherwise been. Conclusion: Don't bother. Massey fans: Get her film Undercover instead, its much better.
