Amazing Underrated Obscure Bizarre Films PART 8 (50 movies items)

"A low budget horror flick that slowly works its way under your skin and becomes deeply entrenched in your mind and somehow, your friggin' heart. One of the most unappreciated b-movie horror films I've ever seen. It gets to ya. "

"Bob Clark on todellinen kulttinimi. Mustalla Joululla katsojiaan järkyttänyt ohjaaja tuli 70-luvulla tunnetuksi pienistä, mutta tehokkaista kauhuelokuvista. Deathdream on todella hyvin alitajuntaan jäävä kokemus, joka kuvastaa loistavasti sodanraadollisuuden sekä antaa hyvän näkökulman luopumisen hankaluudesta. Zombiteema on erittäin onnistunut tekosyy repiä kaikki sodanarvet auki. Tämän Clark tekee taiten, kuvasto on rankkaa, muttei mässäile verellä. Tunnelma luodaan pikemminki"

Andy stays in his room and avoids contact with almost everyone, yet ventures out in the night to commit horrid acts of murder. As bodies begin to stack up and evidence points more and more at the Brooks residence, Andy's father begins to question him and his nightly activities. Instead of kicking down doors and taking no prisoners, police officers talk to Andy's father and let him kno” read more
