100 Tears

This is a pretty average horror/slasher movie. I grant the makers they squeezed in a lot of kills and especially fans of decapitations and guts will like it. The movie is about a serial killer in a clowns outfit who slashes people by the dozen with his hack-axe. Two detectives are on the hunt for the "teardrop killer" who leaves bloody tears behind on the murder scenes and got a back story they slowly unfold. Its like two plots running along each other... Clown slashes people with some entertaining ideas (liked the wheelchair down the stairs shot) and the detectives uncover the story with real bad acting. Basically the movie should have concentrated on the gore because this is where its strong side lies... the acting is real bad, the music is annoying (always the same hardcore techno over the kills and one music sounds a lot like being taken directly out of Hellraiser). The pseudo plot will bore the gore hounds to death and especially fails of bad acting and inconsistency. "100 tears" is rather for the trash/splatter fans but I guess because the director couldn't decide which way to go this one will soon be forgotten. And BTW... the closing scene sucks and like in many movies made me think they didn't know how to get out of their scripts mess.

This film is like wine, it is an acquired taste. Whilst some people may like it, others may not.

This film is also not meant for the broad public. It is targeted. In my opinion, only those who like gore/slasher flicks would like this film. Others,, don't even bother.

I am not terribly enthusiastic about gore/slasher flicks, I didn't like this film that much. Plus the progress is rather slow and it got me restless halfway through the film.

Again, as I said, only watch this if your a die-hard, super fan of this kind of genre. Otherwise, find other films instead.

I first saw this in 2008 on a dvd which I own.

I remember the dvd seller guy persuading me to buy it n describing how scary n gory the movie is.

Revisited it recently but on a fast forwarding mode.

Apart from the gore there is nothing redeeming about this low budget movie.

There is absolutely no tension n the scare is zero. Plus there is zero nudity.

I found the chase sequence involving the dwarf very funny.

At times the movie gets very very monotonous n tedious.

Some of the scenes are shot in too much darkness n the grindhouse/grainy look doesn't help at all.

This doesn't need a sequel or a prequel.

A huge creepy looking clown Gurdy walks through a halfway house and systematically slaughters at least a dozen people with meatcleaver.The gore flows freely in the first 15 minutes.Two reporters Mark and Jennifer are investigating the legendary 'Teardrop Killer',who's been butchering unsuspecting groups of victims for 20 plus years."100 Tears" is among the goriest indie slasher movies I have ever seen.I must say that the bodycount is truly high and the killings are over-the-top including several juicy decapitations and dismemberments.The techno score is annoying,the acting is mediocre and the climax is abrupt,but if you enjoy drowning in the sea of blood and guts "100 Tears" can't be missed.7 out of 10.

Attention all splatter enthusiasts, thy day of deliverance is at hand! Gurdy the clown (Jack Amos) has arisen to cause enough bloody mayhem to drown you! 100 TEARS is the tale of Gurdy and his gore-drenched trail of vengeance against... well, everyone! The opening scene alone is worth its weight in entrails!

TEARS also stars Raine Brown, who redeems herself for having been in the impossibly inept floater known as WOODS OF EVIL. Here, she shines with maniacal glee, giving an utterly insane performance!

So, if your tastes run toward the ultra-gory / funny, and eeevil, homicidal clowns are your delight, then look no further than this micro-budgeted bloodbath!...
