I really wanted to like this one, being a fan of all the horror legends it contained. It started off like it had a plot, but then the director said "Nevermind, I'll just do whatever.", and the movie collapsed in on itself.
Not much to like about this movie ... it made no sense and the acting was really bad.
Words fail me...
I'm a huge horror fan and love low budget, indie stuff just as much as mainstream movies but there is simply nothing positive to say about this catastrophic mess.
The premise is so simple and soooo enticing but the end result is just an incoherent disaster. How could ANYONE consider this to be a finished product?
It makes no sense, characters drift in and out, scenes appear out of sequence, nothing is ever explained ... it's just a cluster of epic proportions.
The actors themselves must have watched the final cut and wondered how the hell this came together.
I am horrified that I spent money on the DVD and you can be certain it's going straight into the bin now.

I love super bad horror movies. But not this bad. Sid Haig, Michael Berryman, Gunnar Hansen, Kane Hodder, Dee Wallace, Barbara Crampton, R.A Mihalov, Tony Todd, Bill Mosely.....wasn't enough to save this drivel. Saying it made zero sense is giving it too much credit. If you like lots of gore and boobies and 80's Moog synth sound F/X, then by all means...sit through this.
I don't know what's worse... the fact that this movie is an absolute mess or that I wanted to love it and it left me with blue balls. The lighting is awful, the editing was done by a blind and deaf person, and the ending makes zero sense. The only reason it got as many stars as it did was because they did manage to corral a lot of horror legends into one place.

- GoofsA "hemophile" is someone with blood clotting issues, not someone who likes blood, which is a "hematophile". The staff would know which term is correct. Also, it is a disorder that almost exclusively affects males, with exceedingly few females developing it.
