Summary: why bother...
Review: Are you kidding? I can't believe anyone with a brain would remotely suggest that this film has any type of viewing pleasure. Read the title... yes, that's right, no your not dreaming, read it again out loud... There, that should sum up why you should never give this film the time of day. I saw this film by mistake on television and literally have panic attacks at the thought of how much better off I would be if I hadn't. I could feel myself getting dumber with every second. Do I really need to say it? Ok, here it goes, don't waste your time. Then again, the fact that your here reading this review doesn't say much...

Summary: Clearly ahead of its time...
Review: Is it any wonder that the critics missed the mark on Thou Shalt Not Kill... Except (TSNKE)? Even To Live And Die In LA recieved a lukewarm reception from the so called 'critics'. It is clear by the general consenus of fans which truly apprecaite this and other fine films that TSNKE simply must not be missed!
This piece of artwork features a generous helping of everything. Action, violence, romance, drama, and of course ... Revenge! From the sleazy cult girls to the kennel owner, you will get to know each and every well developed character. The sets and locations, while clearly independent film quailty, are used wisely to enhance the viewers perception and plotline.
Add - the deleted scene, alternate opening, trailer, audio commentary, superb wide screen picture and cryoted clear soundtrack and you have a rare jem of a film.

Summary: There It Is, G.I.
Review: Never in my wildest dreams could I have envisioned this semi-obscure gem on DVD and yet, here it is. I've watched the VHS version of T.S.N.K.E. (sink-ee) at least 200 times all the way through, but my first DVD viewing was like experiencing a whole new T.S.N.K.E. Scenes that once looked suspiciously lit by car headlights have been transformed into scenes that are clearly lit by car headlights. The soundtrack has been given the digital restoration it deserves and the commentary track is just weird. To realize that at least two other people still acknowledge this film is really spooky. Somebody pinch me.

Summary: Not Great, but entertaining 1st movie by Becker....
Review: Ok, I own most of Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi's movies, so I had to give this movie a whirl (Josh Becker worked on Evil Dead). Overall, don't expect any academy award winning performances or plot. This movie is well below low-budget and I don't think Becker of Campbell (who provide a commentary) are trying to pass it off as anything it is not either.As a movie to sit back and enjoy without taking seriously; you will enjoy it. The commentary shines, very humorous and entertaining all the way through. But, I am partial to Raimi/Campbell movies and others might not be. Once again, get it for the commentary...well worth it.

Summary: Josh Becker is a Creative Genius
Review: There must be something in that Michigan water. It produces talent like Campbell, Raimi, Spiegel, and of course Josh Becker... Do the Great Lakes hold some secret of great cinematic wonder? Perhaps. This is one of the coolest horror films of the 80's. Becker works with almost no budget to recreate the late 1960's. He takes you from the jungles of Vietnam to rural Michigan, and it ain't too bad. So what if the Viet Cong village looks like it was erected on a soccer field! That's the beauty of it. The story is cool and Raimi is great as the psychotic 'Mansonesque' cult leader. You can feel Becker's determination as you watch this film. Check out his other films Running Time and Lunatics: A Love Story (featuring the amazing Ted Raimi).

Summary: A great tale of morality
Review: This DVD edition brings new life into an already great film. Scenes that were barely visible in the old VHS copies are now crystal clear. Be warned, however, that the audio commentary from co-writer Bruce Campbell and director Josh Becker, though occasionally insightful and consistently entertaining, does not give this film the credit it deserves. This is a very good film.

Summary: Amazingly entertaining filmaking
Review: This film is full of suprises. From the plot twists taking us from the jungles of Vietnam to the backwoods of Michigan, this film cant be beat. Some of the best acting youll find in the Raimi/Becker catalogue, this one cant be missed.

Summary: AN ORIGINAL AND ENTERTAINING LOW BUDGET FILM!!
Review: THIS FILM WAS BY FAR ONE OF THE MOST ORIGINAL AND ENTERTAINING LOW BUDGET FILMS THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN.
I HAD READ BOTH POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE REVIEWS ABOUT THIS FILM, BUT I DID NOT LET THEM HAMPER MY OPINION ABOUT IT.
AFTER ALL, EVERYONE'S VIEW ON A PARTICULAR FILM IS NOT ALWAYS THE SAME. IT'S STRICTLY A MATTER OF TASTE! THIS WAS A GOOD WAY TO PASS 85 MINUTES. I LAUGHED QUITE A BIT AT SOME OF THE UTTERLY RIDICULOUS SCENES.
THIS MOVIE IS NOT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY AND IF THIS MOVIE IS TAKEN IN THE CORRECT CONTEXT, IT CAN AND WILL BE ENJOYED!!
WE JUST HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT THIS IS NOT AN OSCAR WINNER, BUT IT IS STILL AN EXCEPTIONALLY ORIGINAL LOW BUDGET FILM! MIGHT I ALSO SAY THAT IF YOU LIKE GORE AND BLOOD AND MURDERS, THEN THIS IS THE MOVIE FOR YOU.
I FOUND IT TO BE A FILM THAT WILL BRING ME NUMEROUS FUN-FILLED VIEWINGS.
TO SUM IT UP, IF YOU HAVE A SICK SENSE OF HUMOR OR A TASTE FOR STRANGE AND WEIRD CINEMA, THEN THIS IS THE MOVIE FOR YOU!!
SO GRAB A BEER, SIT BACK, RELAX AND MARVEL IN THIS MOVIE'S ORIGINALITY AND STYLE!!!
