The Mutilation Man

Rating:
Summary: Could have been better
Review: Ok, I watched this just for the violence and nothing else, and it pretty much delivered the scenes of human carnage and mutilated flesh I hoped for- well, left a little to be desired actually, but I found the movie itself to be a little lacking. There really isn't much of a plot, a guy walks around through a wasteland performing shows where he mutilates his body in front of a cheering audience (only a few people). Most of the time is spent showing people walking around and with very little dialog you're left wondering what the heck is going on. There is some bizarre imagery and some good bloodletting but fans of extreme gore should first check out Braindead, Premutos, the Story of Ricky, Ichi the Killer or the Hellraiser films. For low budget underground movie diehards only.

Summary: Great Experimental Horror
Review: This DVD of Andy Copp's wonderful experimental horror film improves upon the VHS. The extras give new insite in to this amazing but emotionally blasting film. See my review of the VHS for more info on this fine film.

Worth every penny.

Summary: The Future of Horror
Review: This is the directoral debut of a Mr. Andy Copp, the same Andy Copp who will be doing the lens work on the upcoming major Hollywood release, "The Feast". I was given this tape by a well-placed friend in the industry and I was totally blown away. Mr. Copp is a fan and student of the genre, and this movie proves that he has graduated up to the level of master. Splatter-gore has always been looked down by the masses (myself included), but the way that Mr. Copp approaches the medium is new, fresh, and inventive. At all costs, do not miss this movie. And be on the look out for "The Feast"
