      Audience Member Be careful, this one sneaks up on you. If horror fans can make it through the first ten minutes or so of painfully awkward courtship scenes, the misleadingly titled Warlock Moon actually turns into a highly atmospheric chiller not unlike Let's Scare Jessica to Death. The grainy, gritty cinematography nicely complements the film's naturalistic performances, and Laurie Walters is quite convincing as the gaslit girl fighting for her life and sanity against supernatural forces, axe-wielding madmen, and cannibal cults. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member It's considered a cult movie classic on VHS. Google it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member A nice'n'spooky low-budget 70's drive-in horror flick--Overlooked B-Movie Gem!! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member A young woman is taken for a long scenic drive by a new male friend. As the day grows shorter, they happen upon a seemingly condemned resort which turns out to be occupied by a strange, but welcoming, beldame. The young couple agrees to stay there overnight, and learn the horrible history of the old spa...as the woman's story has it, the resort was once a relaxation retreat for the world's elite and powerful, but was closed down after several sacrificial ritual murders committed by a group of Devil-worshipers. Well...predictably, there is similar carnage in store for the new guests, little of which registers as entirely interesting or especially horrifying. WARLOCK MOON opens with a pretty strong scene, but the promise of a movie as good as that is sadly quashed by a marginal story which is paced poorly and never really gets off the ground. Still, it's mighty quirky in a weird low-budget way which may well appease fans of obscure flyball horror flicks. perhaps not a classic, but a worthy watch on late-night television. 1 1/2 Stars 12-21-13 Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Excrutiatingly dull. I got halfway through and was seriously considering FF through the rest when I remembered Joe Bob Briggs had a commentary track. I watched it again from the beginning and was able to enjoy it this time so three stars for the Briggs version. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Super low budget horror film from the early 70's suffers greatly from it's shortcomings but does somehow preserve a nice amount of tension. A couple college kids go out for a picnic and get lost and stumble across an abandoned spa, which is inhabited by a sweet old woman. Well after a tour the kids leave, but a few days later they decide to go back so the young man can pull some sort of story out of the old place for his job, the girl doesn't want to go but does anyway. The girl arrives at the spa first and runs into a hunter that claims the place has been vacant for years and that's when her boyfriend shows up and she goes to meet him and the hunter dissappears but the old woman is back and it's starting to become apparent that there might be some foul play going on.
