LisaMarie M This movie was ridiculous. What was up with the daughter not doing anything to actually protect herself or her mother. Many opportunities to take control of the situation but she seemed hopeless the whole time. I was actually hoping she would be killed off because of how stupid they made her. I was stressed out because of how they made it seem so easy to be taken by the killer with no intention of defending herself. Wanna waste your time? Watch this stupid movie. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/26/23 Full Review Steve D Fans of this kind of thing will find little to like. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member I generally like Troma Films, but this is godawful. This movie has so few moments of any significance, it is exceptionally boring, the storyline is dull, and the acting is beyond awful. Don’t waste your time. This is nowhere near so bad it is good, it is simply trash through and through Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/07/20 Full Review Audience Member WOW! Was NOT expecting to like this. "C+". Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Never judge a movie by its DVD cover. That's about the only good thing about this film. I hate Troma. What fun is a bad movie if it's done so deliberately? It isn't. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member It was really nice of that mental hospital to allow a patient, incarcerated because he killed three people, to allow him to make his own metal dentures. And it was also nice of the parole board to consider him perfectly healthy when he doesn't speak AT ALL, but just squawks like a chicken. This might have worked if they had hired some folks who could act. Edward Terry is great as Luther, the REAL Mr. Chicken, but everybody else would benefit with a few acting lessons. But it is a Troma film and that's really all you need to know. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews
