Rating: 4 stars
Summary: nasty little film
Review: Above average B-horror movie. Grotesque, not very nice, but well made and with some good acting. Not perfect, but involving and stubborn.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great movie
Review: I am a HUGE fan of Roy Dupuis, so naturally I liked this movie. But besides that, it was really good in plot and dialogue.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Pitiful...........
Review: I had such high hopes for this movie. It was reviewed in Fangoria years ago under the title "Hemoglobin" and, of course, they showed all the best pictures from it. The effects are WONDERFUL!, as seen on the cover of the box. I'll bet just by looking at the nasty little things on the cover, that you would want to see this. Too bad you don't even get to see them until the very end, and they are such quickly shot, that you never get to see them as good as you do on the cover. This movie is drenched in horrible dialogue that could make a crack-pumped mokey fall asleep. Just don't be fooled by the gimmicky "bleeding" cover like I sure the average person would, and you'll be ok.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Gory fun.
Review: I know the plot is weak and the monsters are more a thing to pity than run from, but this is an okay movie. Its just two hours of mostly mindless fun, go with it.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Wierd...
Review: I originally bought because of Roy Dupuis. This is by far one of the oddest movies I've ever seen. I wish more time had been spent on John and 'Urs the Nurse' (an inside joke a friend and I came up with knowing that Kristen Lehman had previous been on 'Forever Knight' portraying Urs a vampire).

This movie in fact inspired a group of Roy's fans to nickname him 'Vampire King' because this movie seems to be about an odd vampire-ish type of guy. Had the writer and director tried a more traditional vampire tale instead of focusing on the legless freak aspect, it may have been a better movie.

However, as many have already mentioned, this is pure b-movie fodder.

It's no 'Interview with the Vampire' or 'La Femme Nikita', but it you like Canadian productions and Roy Dupuis, it may be one to add to your shelf.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Grosteque thriller misses being a classic by a narrow margin
Review: If Night of the Living Dead owes its creation to Richard Matheson's classic horror novel I Am Legend, then Bleeders owes a nod to the short story The Lurking Fear, written by the legendary H.P. Lovecraft.

On a small island off the coast of Canada (or New England) the disturbance of the local graveyard rises the ire of its unknown inhabitants, seriously grosteque mutants that are living in tunnels beneath the town. Soon people are disappearing left and right.

And just what does this all have to do with the sickly young man and his concerned wife who have come to the island community to probe into the man's dark family history?

I strongly recommend that you watch this chilling little movie and find out, it is well worth seeing. In fact it is nearly a classic of its kind. Too bad the film is handicapped by very flat and unimaginative photography and a director who does not use atmosphere and mood in any way, shape, or form. Nonetheless this is a solid B-grade thriller that is far, far better than all the slasher movie junk that stuffs most of the rental or sales racks. Check it out, you'll be glad you did.

Summary: Yuck !
Review: Is it just me, or does anyone else notice that Rutger Hauer's career is winding into the abyss? I first saw him in a wonderful WWII movie called 'Soldier of Orange' then in 'Blade Runner', then he played a very convincing Albert Speer in 'Inside the Third Reich' and a convincingly creepy murderer in 'The Hitcher'...then his movie career just nose dived. One horrible...and I hesitate to call them...'B' movie after another he's made. What's up? What next? Rutger Hauer as Bozo the Clown? Barney's Next Great Adventure, co-starring Rutger Hauer as Barney's side kick Side Kick, 'cause Barney likes to kick me in the sides'...? Actually, that sounds better than this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's not a horror its a comedy!
Review: My friends and I were bored one night so we went to rent a video. We couldn't agree on anything so we used the old randomly-grab-a-horror-movie move and well we grabbed this. Upon watching we started off hunched togeter with the lights off expecting a scare any moment. As soon as we saw the monsters we just busted out laughing! The monsters are so stupid and fake looking, and the plot is so not possible that it is hysterical! There is one scene with the monsters and a paranoid old lady in a whelechair that is a classic! If your looking for some great laughs get this movie!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: what just happened??
Review: ok, we rent this thing as a joke hoping it would classic "b" material. What we got is a movie that functions too much on a stupid plot. 2 stars because of the monster box on the boat. Way too funny. Nice narrator too. The ending where the narrator feels it nessecary to say that "his sister showed him love too" or something to that effect.
