Rating: Summary: Shoddy slasher peice! Review: A very strange film about kids being turned into murderers by a mad doctor. Notable only for a scene where a guy start's pissing blood!
Rating: Summary: Odd but an interesting premise Review: The gist of the story is revenge by Dr. LeSange against the town who didnt appreciate his ideas on behavior control...the music is typical tangerine dream and enhances the moodiness of the film..i saw this on HBO 20 years ago and videotaped it...not as shocking as when I first saw it except the scene where the cop's son is given the injection...ive seem worse horror films and would recommend it
Rating: Summary: could have been worse Review: The movie isn't bad. It's not great either, but definitely isn't bad. I have to hand it to these guys. I live in the town that it was supposed to take place in (Galesburg, Illinois), and they actually do a good job makind New Zealand look like my town. There are a few shots, that are almost too close to the real thing. I haven't seen this movie in awhile. The local video store had it with the title Dead Kids. They don't have it any longer, so unfortunately I can't give much more recommendation. I would still say to give it a shot.
Rating: Summary: Even Stranger Music Review: Very odd horror/slasher flick with its real New Zealand location subbing for a generic anywhere USA. The musical numbers ranging from Popular Mechanix to Lou Christie (for God's Sake!)is actually a lot of fun culminating in an almost Twin Peaks masquerade/dancing party.Special effects are mininmal, as is the blood but nobody plays an erotic college prof. better than the English actress involved,a real hoot and reminded me of the old 1940s' Spider Woman vs. Sherlock Holmes
