Dark Asylum (2001)
The camp value in Gregory Gieras’ “Dark Asylum” is priceless and might have been able to stifle the fun but all things considered it only increases it. There’s the humorous opening as a cop car is chasing down a car with two surprise drivers, hear the screams and are led to a sewer where they find the Trasher’s lair. I was laughing at the notoriously bad acting by the police as they gave some incredibly humorous screams. I was in stitches as you could hear the horrible dubbing over the main character’s daughters voice. Despite all of that, this film has a potential to be a really good horror flick.
Cut (2000)
Maybe that’s because I am humongous slasher movie fan. I like slashers. Whether they’re bad ones like “Happy Birthday To Me, Sleepaway Camp” or classics like “Psycho,” “Friday the 13th,” or “Halloween,” I love them all. This one is not an exception, as outside of “Scream” it’s one of the better movie-centric slasher movies made.
Terror Tract (2000)
“Terror Tract” is a fun, freaky, and creepy anthology filled with a trio of horror stories that, although derivative, pack a punch with their clever twists and top notch performances. John Ritter is an unusually quirky real estate agent named Bob who is showing houses to a newlywed couple on a weird neighborhood. We automatically get the idea that this is a weird neighborhood thanks to an incident involving a cat. From there, Bob begins telling our couple a trio of stories, one of which comes with every house he shows.
