Mardi-great!!,
This review is from: Maria's B-Movie Mayhem: Mardi Gras Massacre (DVD)
This movie was an easy purchase, being that it is the first movie the company has filmed out of the porno genre (so I am told). It is filled with some of the best lines and the finest bad acting. The killer even has the best requirement for choosing his victims "is she evil". If you like a good sacrificial ritual with some decent effects 70's style you will dig this, a gem of a movie.

Finally released and not a bootleg.,

This review is from: Maria's B-Movie Mayhem: Mardi Gras Massacre (DVD)
This one is finally out in a non bootleg form,the music and throbbing score when the priest emerges masked from behind the curtain to torture is amazing,creepiest music and a pounding disco bass makes the scenes worth the price of admission.The ending is terrible and ruins the film,but the last victim tortured does a strange innocent naked little dance for the killer and he asks her to leave this place quickly.She repels his wish and says "You've paid good money for me,lets get it on" Totally insane movie,only could have been made in the satanic seventies,captures the spirit of 1977 and 1978 when life was a surreal endless party,unfortunatly it ended and were stuck in a fabricated unfun controlled world now.

GRUNGY GREATNESS!,

This review is from: Maria's B-Movie Mayhem: Mardi Gras Massacre (DVD)
When you think of the term Grindhouse, or Drive in Sleaze, well Mardi Gras Massacre fits the bill . This very low budget flick delivers exactly what you would expect from 70s exploitationa cinema. The actors mostly sound as if reading lines from cue cards, most scenes are shot on the streets, taking advantage of "free" locations that actually help the feel of the movie a bit. There is plenty of nudity,and I think every single female in this played hookers. Anyway, the killings are all the same, every time the guy did the same ritual, wich by the third time really has you rolling your eyes. During the Mardi Gras scenes you can tell alot of the people on film were NOT part of the movie and were hamming it up for the camera. The story rolls along fairly slowly, if you can call it a story. A cop falls for a hooker with a heart of gold... Blah blah blah..there is even a love montage, of them strolling thru the park holding hands, and junk! Then they break up, she gets drunk and has a dance scene in a disco! NOTE: (the gay guy wearing a leatard in the disco is a hoot!) And there is alot of Disco music in this movie, I mean alot!! Be careful not to catch yourself half way thru the movie holding your arm up in the air like John Travolta!!! You can tell this is a really dated movie,because in one scene the cops are in a local shop questioning people, and there is a huge sign advertising WINE SKINS SOLD HERE. What the heck is a wine skin?!

0.5 STARS: Lame,
By HorrorMan "HM" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Maria's B-Movie Mayhem: Mardi Gras Massacre (DVD)
"Mardi Gras Massacre" sounds like a great movie and looking at the cover of this DVD case, it looks like it would be a good movie, but the fact of the matter is that the title and DVD case are far and away the best parts of this so-called horror flick. Unfortunately, this is the type of movie that is so cheaply done that it is devoid of style and substance; the acting is very poor and the movie's action is rigid, i.e., it just doesn't flow well at all. That being said, the worst part of this movie is the story itself, which just does not work at all, especially given the poor execution. There really isn't much of a plot. Basically, this movie is about and idiot who brings prostitutes back to his place and butchers them, but there is no real meaning to the movie. "Mardi Gras Massacre" is nothing but a cheap flick with a lot of very fake blood and gore signifying much ado about nothing. It's too bad this movie sucks so bad because the title sounds good. There could have been a movie here, but the creators of this movie were very unimaginative in their vision behind this very sorry excuse for a horror flick.
