Summary: Rabid Grannies has its moments
Review: Ahhh... where to start. First off, this movie is VERY badly dubbed and the picture quality is about 6/10... aside from that it's bearable once you get towards the middle of the movie where the gore and all the fun stuff starts. The beginning lags and left me uninterested. It's worth the 9.98 to add to your Troma collection but I suggest another Troma classic before you go and buy this one... say...Tromeo and Juliet.

Summary: Absolute crap
Review: Despite a good title, Rabid Grannies disappoints in all levels and the dubbing is so horrible that your better watching this crap with subtitles. The movie is plotless and very pointless with very little gore(The DVD version is R-rated and the special features include deleted scenes that feature the bloody effects on the Unrated version). A bunch of people in a mansion celebrate a kids birthday party and two grandma's get rabies and start killing all. Rabid Grannies shouldn't be in the Troma industries and just burned in toxic waste. If you want a good Troma movie try Toxic Avenger or even that chessy,low-budget Redneck Zombies.

Summary: The Best Bad Movie Ever
Review: I cannot, as other reviewers have done, compare this to the Troma catalog, as I am no connessieur of Troma movies. I am, however, a bad movie buff. The worse the better, I say. And this one takes the cake.
Obviously bad over-dubbing, questionable acting talent, and a soundtrack that just rocks. And the plot? Hoo boy... 2 elderly, wealthy sisters gather their family together to celebrate their birthdays. All attend, speaking ill of their elderly "aunties", hoping to cash in when the ladies croak. The disowned member of the family sends a gift to the sisters by way of an amazingly terrifying messenger. Upon opening the gift, the sisters unwittingly release some mysterious green fog which turns the ladies into...yup, you guessed it - RABID GRANNIES!! They visciously tear through the entire family, with some gore scenes that are truly terrible. I can't even tell you the ending of the movie, as I haven't yet seen it - I've watched this movie over a dozen times and every time I fall asleep before the movie is over. Don't take that as a bad (or worse, as the case may be) sign - I do this frequently, whether I like the movie or not. I just don't get enough sleep.
My point is, if you're a fan of bad, and I mean really terrible, horror movies, then you should definately seek out a copy of this classic.

Summary: So Bad It's Good!
Review: If you're looking for a movie with a plot you should know you won't ever find it in a gore movie. The gore is funny, disgusting, and just down right sick. I liked that! If it wasn't for all of the extras and trailers filled with porn type materials I would have given this movie a 5 star. No where in the movie databases did I find that this DVD contained so much nudity but it does. The movie itself just has one scene that isn't to risky however the PSA and other trailers on this DVD are what I consider soft porn material. It's still worth buying so pick one up before you can't get your hands on thease grannies any longer.

Summary: What else can you expect from Troma?
Review: It was the absolute worst movie I have ever seen (And I've seen allot of bad movies) You have to be a really big Troma buff to sit through this one.

Summary: Another fine foerign feast from Troma!
Review: Not as silly as the title suggests, but still silly. I loved this tender (yeah right) story of two aging sisters who receive a special gift on their birthday from their devil worshiping nephew, and all heck breaks loose. Lots of blood and gore. Badly dubbed movie from Belgium. More funny than scary. Interesting musical score. I could watch it again and again.

Summary: Mean Grannies!
Review: Okay, the first half hour is boring..snooze, snooze, snooze. You see a set of ta-ta's, but still boring.One of the Grannies opens a box, a gift from who?...who knows, never find out. They become rabid once it is opened and they become plastic creatures that foam green goo--awesome, thank you. A Night of the Living Deadish appeal, the characters lock themselves in rooms throughout the mansion while the Grannies lurk throughout the hallways. The demented nature of this film made me give this four stars despite the quick ending. The gore is moderate, but the implied effects are well-done. Strings of meat, limbs going down stairs--that kind of stuff. This is laughable, but at a descent price, worth it.

Summary: These biddies bite!
Review: Rabid Grannies is about 2 old ladies inviteing everyone in their family over for their birthdays.But when a package is deliverd from one of the black sheep in the family it unleashes fumes that turn the grannies rabid who then go on a killing spree killing anyone in the mansion.Rabid grannies is an ok film compleate with bad editing,a boring begging,and bad special effects.Something I was disapointed with was that this was the r rated version and not uncut although you can still see the gore on some of the speical freatures I'd rather see it intack.Also with a title like rabid grannies you'd expect a film that doesn't take itself too seriously but this one is dead seriousious.although there is some good to it like the dubbing which is hilarious and although not all gore scenes look good there are a couple that look decent. Extras are normal a commentary track which I found really funny not because of what the guy was saying but of how his voice sounded,some special effect interviews,all the gore missing from the film,troma related stuff,and the troma intellengence test 2 which was the first time I saw the second one and the tour of troma ok film that I think most people should rent before buying with a good supply of extras.

Summary: eh....
Review: rabid grannies is decent....for all tromaniacs its a maybe...i have been amazed by troma movies in the past but this movie...i rate it "eh" its decent but the fun thing about troma is it mixes sex, gore, and comedy well.....this movie has a lot of pointless talking and no sex at all, but it still has gore.......and damn fine gore....but if your looking for movies like that i sugest "class of nuke em high" or "army of darkness" first, those movies are the same style and are a lot better......
