El asesino de negro

This film takes horror to another level. A truly unique, edge of your seat thrill ride of hellish fear. The character of "Zipperface" is so sickeningly deranged (yet twistedly realistic), there were moments where I had to pause my VCR in order to wretch uncontrollably out of sheer terror. As "Zipperface" descents into a whirlwind of madness, I was almost able to feel his grasp on his own sanity frantically slipping into a maniacal world. Nearly paralyzed by his demonic acts, I watched as he unremorsfully murdered not one, but SEVERAL hookers with a variety of bone chilling devices of torture. The unfortunate whores were only able to scream for a mere moment before their inevitable demise, but those very screams haunted my mind and soul for days. Although I purchased this terrifying film at the dollar store, I feel it was almost worth the money, and would even go as far as saying it could be categorized with such classics as: "Bride of Chucky", "Ninja Cheerleaders", and "Nympho Zombies". Bravo, to the entire cast and crew! I am still anxiously awaiting the sequel!

Wow! This is the movie that should be shown on TV at Two in the morning on Cinemax for all those insomniacs (lord knows they'd probably pass out from boredom watching this movie) Terrible acting, the killer is quite far from scary, I've seen clowns at carnivals that were scarier. Lot's of unnecessary 'skin' in this film, pseudo-porn scenes which are just horrible in more ways than a million, a gawdy soap opera style script which really hurt the movie and the director really had no flair for whatever genre he was trying to create with this film. I could see a group of teenagers with their parents camcorders doing better work than this. I don't think there is a part of me that could recommend this film to anyone...

The first thing you should know about "Zipperface" is that it was shot on video, so it has that peculiar "home-video-ish" look that is terribly distracting and makes it hard to take this seriously as a "real" film. And "Zipperface" indeed looks as if a bunch of amateurs got together for an attempt at a "real" serial-killer thriller. It's not quite that, but it's not as bad as it looks, either. Having a woman as one of the two detectives on the case puts a spin on the exploitation genre. Dona Adams gives an appealingly amateurish performance in the role - her obvious inexperience in front of the camera somehow works for her. Plus, she puts up a GREAT fight against the killer at the end. The red herrings appear ludicrous at first, but ultimately they work - I guessed the killer INcorrectly. And you have to wonder if perhaps Tarantino had seen the Zipperface guy when he came up with the idea of "The Gimp" for "Pulp Fiction". (*1/2)

Seems your Phaithful Phrog is the only one who saw this rarity. Well, there's no use to lose sleep over it : this is an average thriller (Tv movie ?) with an S&M overdose - but why does S&M between consenting adults always have to lead to murder and mayhem ? As a "killer-stalks-witness" story, this one is classical but brisky, but I especally liked the leather-clad killer which seems straight out of an Italian giallo. But don't expect another "Profondo Rosso"

After watching zipperface i felt joy, it was one of the funniest films i have ever seen. It is the same sort of category as Friday 13th and nightmare on elm street films. A sort of comedy horror, very predictable but still very nail biting and exciting. I think that the film is probably better than both of them and i really did like them both but nowhere near zipperace. Not only is zipperface a funny film at time but it is also quite scary foe example when my main man, zipperface decapitates a young half naked woman, this doesn't sound that scary but when you watch by yourself in the dark, on a cold december night it will scare the bejubus out of you. Quite simply i highly recommend this film, its like a party in my mouth and everyone's invited, its that good. Must see. 5 *****
