It's funny how the 80's trailers for horror movies are more scarier then the ones from now. I don't think I even wanna watch this what's with the garden.
ya know the guide gave this place a 5 star rating...jeez no fresh towels room service lacking ice machine warm bedbugs oh and the effin veggie head garden in back LOL.
im looking for a film quite like this ... all i can remember about it is there is 2 hillbilly type kids with shaven heads and dungares i think that beat up another kid with black hair i think and they have a ramp that is bult over a river , and they ride there bikes into it ?
any help plz will be apprecieated
i watched it in 1998 about dont no if it came out then ?
I miss these types of horror films.. nothing scarier than this shit than the new crappy shit we have now.. all the jason and freddys are all action and no scares.. 80s - 90s rule
@Jazzymgee That's cool, has she shared any stories about the film? Was she in any other movies? Motel Hell is still a highly revered cult classic horror film.
@Jazzymgee WOW ur so lucky to have a family like that! :D
hey small roles are better then nothing :D
i have an aunt and and uncle(he passed last year in March tho :/) that were in 2 films, they played miner roles tho, when i found out i was all like "dayum we have actors in the family XD" i forgot what the filsm were called but they were mexican films so yeah i wouldnt remember the same if its a mexican title XD
...it's funny how all the classical horror movies are scary, but nowadays horror movies are terrifying because the directors and creators use the classical horror elements...
I love this movie. Its campy, entertaining, funny, and has some creepy moments. Overall though the trailer doesn't even match the movie's actual tone, which isn't surprising because obviously they were trying to make it seem scary, when in fact the film isn't frightening at all.
Notice how the van had Charles Manson's face painted on the front and a Red flag painted on the side. Hippies are all about idolizing mass murders (especially if they're the type that brainwash others into doing their bidding).
@msnywoman23 After re-watching it, I realize that it's Ivan's face on the front, not Manson's. He looks like Charles Manson, though. Wonder if that's intentional. Interesting that most hippies were middle-class rather being from the Proletarian abyss.
I've probably seen this movie 100 times and I would still not be able to change the channel if it came on right now. Seriously, it you haven't seen it, se it immediately.
@macroevolve You know i even love the the way superman flew in the old films as opposed to the new one where it look like they pasted the new superman to a backround.the old one looked alot more real.
Great trailer for great "drive-in" style of movie. (Watch closely and you'll see "Cliff Claven" John Ratzenberg in the back of the pick-up truck at 0:33)
why does the voice of the preview narrators change over the decades? anyone ever wonder that? You can just tell this is an old preview by listening to the voice of the narrator.
I watched this once. Maybe I missed the bit explaining why they had to bury the people in the ground alive, but it was a bit inexplicable. Could someone explain why they were buried?
I don't see why everyone says it's funny, cause it aint! It's thoroughly disturbing and sick! And the narrator's voice still gives me nightmares and adds to the effect!!! I really hate the dark now!!!
@Johnlindsey289 This is one of the earliest horror films i ever remember seeing actually. They showed this practically non stop on HBO when i was around 2 and that's when i remember first seeing it. Looking back on it i can't believe my parents actually let me watch it at so young an age. It didn't scare me though. I thought it was cool and my parents bought me my very first issue of Fangoria magazine when i was 3 and it had Farmer Vincent on the cover. lol
I saw this in Times Sq when it was first released, if i remember the ad for the film said "You might Just Die Laughing". I picked this to watch over "Raging Bull"
If they remake this...then they better do a better job and not fuck it up. Like they did Friaday the 13th, and Halloween. And now Nightmare on Elm Street is coming out. I hope it's good.
daaaaaaamn i use to love watching this as a kid along with old kung fu flicks and blaxploitation movies every saturday morining right before soultrain came on. fuck, i missed being a kid in the mid and late eighties eating capt crunch digging in boxes for prizes!!!! they don't make movies like this any more
I finally read the summary to this and it seriousy freaked me out, so I have no idea whether to watch it or not. I'd never leave the house again- or eat meat
This is actually much funnier than it is scary.
