Summary: Falls "short"
Review: An original idea for a Horror movie. It had lots of potential but as the movie progresses it just becomes another really bad B flick.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: BAND ON THE RUN
Review: Director Charles Band has given us some strange but fun movies such as THE REANIMATOR, but in this one, I think he's gone off the deep end. In the VIDEO ZONE feature, he extols his cast saying how good actors they are? Charles, please....there's not one solid performance in this whole movie, and your boasting of the originality of having the monsters three feet tall is ridiculous. How frightening can these clowns be? Rhonda Griffin and Kristin Norton are the worst actresses I have ever seen, and Bill Moynihan is atrocious. Only Justin Lauer as the hero comes across with any kind of screen presence. This one's not even funny enough to be considered camp.
Is it time for the Full Moon to set? With movies like this one, I'd say so.

Summary: UNDERSIZED. UNDEAD. AND ANGRY.!!!!!!!!
Review: Dracula. Frankenstein. The Werewolf. The Mummy. They're alive-and they're angry. These scary subjects of innumberable nightmares have been brought to life, but there was a problem in the process...
Though imbued with most of the expected attributes, the creatures' creator made a little error in the equation. The frightening fiends materialized in miniature! Three feet tall and not happy at all, the miniscule monsters embark on a mad mission to complete their creation-at any cost!

Summary: A review of the DVD, not just the movie!
Review: Ok, Full Moon films are either hit or miss, so I'll skip any type of review and get right to the important stuff -- THE CONTENTS. This is a double sided DVD. On side one you get the feature film and a 15 minute feature called VideoZone. Almost all Full Moon dvds come with VideoZone installments. For the novices out there, the VideoZone is Charles Band's video magazine with news and previews of upcoming features and of course the mandatory making of the film section. Pretty neat stuff with tons of cast interviews and a chance to see Phil Fondacaro guzzling Budweiser (priceless!) Side Two has over 40 trailers from the Full Moon vaults and it's great to see current superstars Helen Hunt, Demi Moore, etc showing up as supporting players in many of Full Moon's classic series like Trancers, etc. The quality of the movie transfer is excellent. All of the graphics and colors are intact. Some of the trailers are not up to par, but they probably are the best available. Charles Band knows that these DVDs tend to be purchased, not rented, and he has taken the extra care to provide a little extra bang for your buck. Sit back, pop open your favorite beverage and enjoy this wacky stuff.

Summary: a hoot
Review: Phil Fondacaro is great (you've seen him in many a film) and the idea is funny. Filmed well, script could have been a little better but well done nonetheless. Good musical score for such a low budget flick. Kid's will love it, adults will grin.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Midget monsters terrorize the world!
Review: This horror comedy is more dorky than funny. A mad scientist steals the rarest of rare first editions of classic monster stories, all so he can bring them to life and rule the world. Well things fall a bit SHORT (ha ha ha ha ha ha) and the classic creatures come out as midgets. Forget that the monsters characterizations are all wrong and that the Wolf Man was created largely in movies and not in a classic book. This movie is just made to laugh at and, as with most of Full Moon's fodder, is quite entertaining in its own moronic way.

Summary: widescreen 3-D film presented flat and cropped
Review: This is an Ok movie for kids, but the real interest is that is was shot in widescreen and 3-D, not a common thing these days. Director Charles Band also made the better 3-D film "Parasite" (1981) which was also the first film starring Demi Moore! This video is flat and cropped from widescreen so why bother?
