Product Description
From Amazon.com
If disconnected glimpses of classic horror-movie visions were all it took, Horror would easily be counted a low-budget masterpiece. New Jersey-born filmmaker Dante Tomaselli (who certainly has a great name for a horror movie director) has obviously studied the imagery of the Bava-Argento line of Italian horror, and he's conjured some genuinely creepy sights: a black goat standing in the snow, a doll's head melting, a girl sliding silently from beneath a bed. This stuff gets under your skin, no doubt, but it would be nice if Tomaselli supplied some coherent reason to be watching all this. Girl-in-peril Lizzy Mahon is a cut above the generally awkward acting, but the top-lined performer is the Amazing Kreskin, whose kooky mentalism hugger-mugger is cleverly incorporated into his role as a faith-healing preacher. (Tomaselli has Kreskin, Ed Wood had Criswell…discuss.) It doesn't really make sense, but psychotronic viewers will want to see it. --Robert Horton
Additional Features
An audio commentary from director Dante Tomaselli gives hints about what is actually going on in the movie, a "making-of" short gives a whiff of a do-it-yourself horror production (à la American Movie), and backstage footage shows Kreskin using his amazing powers of mentalism on the cast (he also recounts a meeting with Orson Welles and disparages the idea of hypnotism). Plus, there's an 11-minute sequence cut from Tomaselli's maiden effort, Desecration. --Robert Horton

Horror,,shure but horrible storyline,
By Morbid Lust (Fox Hallow woods OR) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Horror - DVD (DVD)
I quite enjoyed "Horror" the eerie black goat sceans where creative and the scares where actualy unpredictable.the sound effects and music was fantastic, good visual effects great makeup and NO CGI for the other computer graphic haters out there!!! I realy wish I could understand just what the hell was the meaning of all of it, but i guess the films creepyness and gore made up for having no storyline what so ever.

a "kitchen sink" scare flic,
By "thegroke" (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Horror - DVD (DVD)
I thoroughly enjoyed this film. I'm a fan of (but not zealous towards) Argento's movies, but really prefer horror to slasher, so this one hit me just right. Every possible creep shtick is utilized; it's both very effective and embraceable. I found myself nodding in appreciation while still being creeped out---the director knows how to pull it off, even with a lower budget than most slasher films use. Great fun, play this one as part of a halloween mini film-fest!

This film is horrible. I am in awe that anyone would hype this movie at all. I cannot believe I actually saw it on the rack at a major chain video store. I have flushed better movies. It's hard to know where to begin panning this turd. It isn' teven funny/bad and I was stoned. Honestly. This Dante guy seriously needs to stop attempting to make films. There isn't enough room for crap like this while Romero is still struggling to get good films made. The people that gave this film a good review are friends of Dante's. They must be. Skip this one and watch ANYTHING else
