Alan Jones Starburst Bloody Moon is here to remind us of the yawn-inducing depths that the genre can be lowered to by these uncaring, inept hacks. Jul 28, 2022 Full Review Chris Alexander Alexander On Film BLOODY MOON has moments of that inimitable, free-form Franconian vision and, despite its budgetary and narrative failings, it's a slop-bucket full of lurid fun. May 30, 2020 Full Review Ard Vijn ScreenAnarchy "Bloody Moon" is not a movie which I'd call great, it is too shallow and obvious for that. But it's definitely well-made (rather than well-written or well-acted) and basically achieves its goals. Most important of all, it is NOT boring. Jan 17, 2020 Full Review Fernando F. Croce CinePassion An obsessive liebestod whipped up by Franco in the middle of a throwaway shocker Sep 5, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Pretty cool, yet absurd slasher flick with a hint of giallo, from the often-praised Franco. It's not as sleazy as his other work, but that doesn't stop it from being taboo and pushing all the buttons required to get the censor's panties in a twist. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/27/20 Full Review Audience Member Franco does a slasher and yes it's ludicrous in the extreme. Bloody Moon is silly fun from veteran sleaze maestro Jess Franco and it is easy to see why the DPP got their silly knickers in a twist, this pushed all the buttons, incest, blood on breasts, power tools, a child ran over by a classic car it has all the essential ingredients that annoy the censorious. But fans of 80's slasher movies or giallo pics will get a lot of enjoyment from this German film from the Spanish legend Bloody Moon is a Bloody Treat. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member No moon to be seen... Bloody Moon is one of the video nasties garnered notoriety from the BBFC, the gratuitous nudity and violence definitely made it a suitable candidate. The subject matter was also very dark, it is one of the rare video nasties I'd consider as a worthy candidate. Deserves a watch for blood thirsty horror fans. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Somewhat creepy if not flat-out terrifying with performers who are sort of likeable despite the laughably bad acting. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member What a pile of garbage Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member More slasher Euro-Trash only from the depraved mind of Jess Franco. Better than I thought it would be. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
