Judgement Day

good idea, poor delivery and even worst acting. but like so many cult movies this one has a rather unique script, focusing on a day of the dead like celebration that two college kids find themselves trapped in....I will say this it take a true horror fan to watch this movie, much of what you see on screen is laughable at best as far as effects are concerned, but there is something disturbing about the town and premise of the movie. there are much scarier 80's movies, but unlike the other commenter i like the grainy footage (which is mainly due to VHS quality and shaking camera they add somewhat to the mood of the movie.it has been at least ten years since i have seen this movie so i can't remember all the details, but if someone can get it for you cheap or free you should check it out....

FOUND IT FINALLY HERE ^^^^^^^^

I rented this some time ago ...the front of the box showed the devil on it and from there it caught my attention ...the movie was shot in Mexico..the location was great..and then when night rolled around it got downright creepy..some reviewers said this movie had a low budget and no suspence...while the budget is low compared to other films..i have disagree with the suspence part...any time when you have a movie with two normal people trapped in a place that they wish the could get out of...thats suspeneful..i recomend this movie.

This movie to many people is a cheesy low budget piece of trash. The concept however, is what saves this picture in my eyes. The ending while considered predictable by some will still throw a few people. It has it's strong points. Ceaser Romero adds something to the movie. It's more or less a fun no brainer with a twist. Not award quality, but a good late night creature feature.

This movie is so cool. I saw it in my adolescence, and now I wish I could find a copy to own and cherish. I loved the idea for this movie so much, that I plagiarized the story for my seventh grade creative writing class and received an 'A' on it! There's something about the cinematography and scenery that just captures the oppressive heat and humidity of the area that lends the overall film a very sinister undertone. My buddy and I rented this flick from a little "mom and pop shop" in our small town over summer vacation. It was so hot that summer and my parents didn't have air conditioning, but the basement was always cool and damp. So I'd rent all these great cheesy horror flicks to get out of the heat. I'd sit in my darkened basement and my buddy and I would just get the biggest kick outta these movies. Judgement Day was one of my favorites. A couple others that I have fond memories of are: The Curse of the Blue Lights, Spookies, 9 1/2 Ninjas, Popcorn, The Howling, and Dolls. What can I say? I love this movie... And I can't wait to get a copy of this... I can almost feel the preteen hormonal excitement rushing over me again in a nostalgic euphoria. Definitely check out this movie if you're so fortunate as to come across it.

Ugggggghhh.

That was my reaction to this movie. My friends and I surmise that it was created on a budget of maybe $100, filmed on a personal camcorder, and was (stupidly) taken way too seriously during the filming. They actually thought that this was scary?

Well, at least it gave me a different physical interpretation of "Satan," at least... instead of the red guy with the cute tail that has a little spade on the tip, you get a mixture of vampire, devil, and your worst hair day ever all blended into one.

On my list of the best flicks to rent for a marathon of sucky movies, this one is #1!!
