The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

The Video Dead (1987)

Starring: Rocky Duvall, Roxanna Augesen
Director: Robert Scott

Premise:
A television with a satanic curse unleashes zombies onto the a neighborhood.

My Take:
There's a lot of bad stuff in this flick, such as acting and linearity of the script. However, the story itself is original and there's are decent laughs. And for the budget, the make up/special effects are good.

Rating: Warning (but very watchable)
