Unhinged

I first viewed this movie on a rented VHS copy which had a loud hum on the audio track which made it not worth watching , however when I found that the movie is now available on DVD , decided to give it a go and found the video and the sound to be 100% better , worth adding to ones collection of horror movies , hard to see why it was banned there are ones worse that have been released .

Just my opinion judge for yourself.

Slow pace but gory enough for me.

Im a HUGE fan of old horror flicks. This one is OK. It has a weird ending and is very unexpected.

great

I think this is far beyond being a cult classic... I don't think I hould comment on the content.

3 girls are stranded at this old ladies house and get picked off one by one all the while every time this happens the remaining girls or girl think nothing of it asking the old lady why didn't whats her name get back yet from hours ago or whatever and they seem to be not so worried. The continuality is horrible as the girls have totally differnt clothes on from scene to scene(in one scene a girl has different clothes on after panning across the room and back!)There's a quick shower scene with a couple of girls from back in the day before shaving was in style).Being a guy i thought i'd mention the only redeming quality of this terrible boring mess of a movie,oh yeah 1 of the kill scenes was cool,but both of these points are a combined total of 20 seconds long and you have to deal with the other 99.5 percent of this stinker. Totally not worth your time unless you want to torture yourself waiting for some fun slasher action to take place,as i mentioned that's a couple seconds long,minus the boobs and bush.It's also very far in between the rest of this snoozer. I can,t see why this was banned in the U.K.,didn't they have Porkys' and Friday the 13th there. If your curious remember that old saying curiosity killed the cat. Don,t touch this if you see it in the dollar bin like i did, life's too short but not short enough to write this and help out my fellow humankind. Save your dollar for a candy bar or homeless person on the street corner. Revised update haha!but in the end I'm a sucker for atomospheric mood settings and loopy moog snyth soundtracks. On second viewing ....some 5 years later,this slasher flick has rubbed off on me. And I would say check it for a few bucks.....and a few beers ...the movie was still horrible but in an enjoyable way

Three young pretty girls go on a road trip to a concert. All of a sudden they meet into an accident due to a storm which drives them off the road. They are taken in by a kindly couple & an old lady in a wheelchair in a Gothic-style Victorian mansion where everything & everyone seems a little odd...I bought this DVD from Best Buy with the lurid titles that said that this low budget American film contains "NUDITY, VIOLENCE, LANGUAGE, DISTURBING THEMES", & it was "BANNED IN ENGLAND IN 1985 & WAS PULLED FROM DISTRIBUTION". Wow! What clever marketing by the producers of this DVD to disguise the fact that this is nothing more than an average slasher, teen-aged girls in peril film. Needless to say, I was very disappointed when I saw this independent;y produced low budget American horror film. As a film by itself, it was not bad. It was filmed in grainy film stock which conveyed good use of lighting which gives a very atmospheric look to the film. At times, the film looked very muddy which is a big disappointment as well. The nudity was there, but not as lurid as the film suggested. The gore was minimal, only bloody moments & the actual killing were done off-screen.Very disappointed in this film. Good for a rental...maybe. Just your run-of-the-mill slasher film. Nothing more. You can probably find more disturbing & creepy moments if you bought LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT in which this film tries to emulate, but failed. Watch LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT instead.And the audio commentary by "The Detractors" was very annoying & not comical at all.I give this film 2 stars out of 5.

As described in a lot of reviews, this is the best possible for this movie, for now, because the original negative prints were lost.This DVD edition include 2 options: 4:3 or 16:9.4:3 is clearly the best option, because the 16:9 version is zooned from 4:3. 16:9 version have less defintion and less video frame content. 4:3 shows a more complete frame, with better quality, sharper than 16:9 version.

A slow boiler with some pretty tame gore scenes. This was briefly banned in the UK. Looking at it now it is hard to imagine why. It is a borderline 15 in my opinion. Maybe the slight nudity got it the 18? However it does hold together well. Good cast. Great storyline. Some stunning locations and sets. Worth adding to your collection. I haven't seen the remake yet.

This is an underrated little gem.Very atmospheric and creepy with a killer finale.The acting seems to have been slated but I thought it was passable.If you're a fan of 70s and 80s horror like myself you will in all probability like this.I'm glad I invested the time.

a good movie with a twist in the end.

A very enjoyable Horror/Thriller, quite tame though now to what's on the market these days, but well worth watching.

Great dvd great service
