Terror Toons

Terror Toons, starring porn icon Lizzie Borden and Beverly Lynne, has a bad porn feel to it, only without the titillating sex and nudity. And cohesive plot.

Candy and Cindy are sisters left home for the night when their dad and "mom" leave for a wedding. Cindy receives a DVD called Terror Toons, which unleashes supposed cartoon characters Dr. Carnage and Max Assassin.

I'll give Beverly Lynne and Kelly Liu credit, they at least try to do a halfway decent job, but they are let down by their director and the special effects department. Joe Castro doesn't so much film as he just happens to keep a camera in the room as his story unfolds. The special effects would be laughable if they weren't so nauseating...not nauseating in the sense of "ooh, brains" but in the sense of "ooh, special effects goop."

It took one person to come up with the story, and three to come up with the script. What exactly took three people? The tired cartoon characters running through doors in a hallway? The cop who likes donuts? Strip Ouija?

This is a horrible, hateful little movie that will make you wonder about humanity's capacity to come together and put together something so unbelievably awfully. Stay away from it.

I seem to have had the exact opposite reaction to the movie. I knew that I wasn't renting "Schindler's List" when I picked it up, and the movie didn't disappoint. While there are plenty of rough edges to the movie, it was inventive enough for me to keep my hands off the scan button and watch it. People looking for a little no-brainer diversion might want to check it out.

Obviously this movie is for people with good, dark senses of humor and I think most of the people who say that this movie is bad is because they're either artsy college kids who look at movies seriously(you know, the kids that think that foreign films are genius, just because they're in foreign.) or they have no humor about what you can do in a movie(these are more the kind of people who make fun of things that they don't get so that they don't look stupid.) But, if you like GWAR shows and Troma films, than this movie is for you.

While perusing the racks of my local Blockbuster, my friends and I were set on "Adaptation," the intelligent movie with Nick Cage. But then I saw "Terror Toons" on the shelf and we just had to get it, being in a silly mood.

The film (or video, I should say, since the movie is actually shot on video, NOT on film), which was shot in three days on a budget of $2300, was entertaining, if anything. The actors, who were quite obviously porn stars attempting to make a legitimate movie, were pretty awful; the special effects were creative, although visually unappealing and unnecessarily gory; the storyline...well...we'll just say the storyline is centered around cartoon characters who murder people. But with their acting skills, they deserve to be murdered.

Special cameos by the Devil create some weird morality issues, but by the time you get to the end, you'll be laughing too hard to pay attention.

If you're looking for a serious horror flick, then this one (which looks as though it was shot in someone's basement) is not what you're looking for. In fact, I'm pretty sure this is a comedy.

WOw, this movie sucks. I rented it knowing it was gonna suck but I had no idea it would be this bad... From the opening scene, you know this is gonna suck. The opening scene is fake, funny, stupid, horrible all at the same time. I find it funny how horrible this film is, yet it is very entertaining. The gore is alright, not all of it looks as fake as it does in the first scene, some of it looks okay. Most of the special effects are bad, but not all of it. Some very fake CGI in here, and the Terror Toons don't look like cartoons. The kills are okay, some of them funny, some of them just...bad. I still find it entertaining, I really enjoy this movie. Must see for any fans of really, really BAD movies!
