Valutazione di T-Bag82
"Cannibal Apocalypse" is somewhere between a cheesy '70s action flick, a gritty violent thriller and a b-grade horror film, and doesn't quite work. It never finds a good balance in its hybrid of styles and comes across as inconsistent with a real lack of direction. However, it does have its moments and overall is a decent film for fans of horror.
The plot is about Vietnam veterans who were forced into cannibalism in the war and can't quite let it go back in the USA. It spreads like a virus to anybody who is bitten or "infected" by one of the cannibals and it soon becomes an epidemic.
The opening scene of the film set in the Vietnamese jungles is brilliantly shot and actually creates a grittier, more violent and more realistic view of the Vietnam War than most Vietnam War films do, but this is destroyed by the atrocious music which sounds like a hybrid of a '70s action TV theme and a porn groove.
The soundtrack of the entire film is its major downside as it creates a much lighter mood than what the film needs and is the main reason "Cannibal Apocalypse" crosses over to the cheesy '70s action movie style at times. With a better soundtrack it could've been much improved.
Many of the scenes in the film are quite powerful (except for the music) and the violence is graphic but gritty and realistic, almost in the vein of films such as Maniac, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and even Taxi Driver, and avoids the "glamorized" gore that most horror films tend to resort to. In particular, the tongue-biting scene with the nurse is extremely well shot and with better music could've been very powerful.
Overall, "Cannibal Apocalypse" is a decent film with alot of potential but is let down by a lack of direction and a poor soundtrack. The ending of the film is very clever and open ended however, and the very last scene is brilliant and a great surprise which will have you wondering "Ohh yeah, how did I forget about that!"

"Teenage Catgirls In Heat" is a very average Troma release. Like alot of their other films, it is a hit & miss film with many inconsistencies and just isn't able to hold the viewer's interest for the most part.
The plot is bizarre as usual, and had much potential. It is about an ancient statue of a cat taken out of its box in suburbia, making all the local cats commit mass suicide and then mutate into naked teenage girls who miow, lick, scratch, hiss and purr, with a mission to seduce and kill men. Meanwhile, a cat hunter and his sidekick stumble across them and want to find out what's going on.
The film has its moments, and some very funny scenes. In particular, the date between one of the cat hunters and one of the catgirls. But overall, the comedy is very inconsistent and gets tiresome. Worth checking out if you are a Troma fan, but otherwise there isn't much you'd get out of this.

"The Toxic Avenger" is the definitive Troma release. A perfect blend of politically incorrect gross out comedy and over the top gore. The only flaw in the film is perhaps some of the fight scenes which tend to drag.
The plot centres around Melvin the Mop Boy who works at the Tromaville Health Club and gets constantly picked on by a bunch of teens who get enjoyment from running over children in their cars. One day, one of their pranks goes too far and he falls into some toxic acid and mutates into an ugly monster with a sixth sense for detecting evil and stopping it. He becomes a superhero and cleans up the crime in Tromaville, but as you would expect, things go wrong.
The laughs in "The Toxic Avenger" never stop as every scene is hilarious and reflects a period when film makers weren't concerned with political correctness. Jokes here come at the expense of the elderly, the blind, animal cruelty, killing children, and just about everything else that's wrong to laugh at. The sets in the film are also excellent and like with Class Of Nuke 'Em High, there are strong anti-nuclear messages.
I'd highly recommend this to all fans of offbeat comedy, exploitation cinema and comedy/horror.
