5.0 out of 5 stars
schlock, Oct 15 2008
This review is from: Schlock (Widescreen) (DVD)
Schlock: is it real or surreal! This is without a doubt the epitome of everything that can be bad with a movie. You name it, it's bad. And yet, it is somehow strangely appealing. Sitting in the dark with your popcorn, marvelling at the sheer drivel pouring from the actors mouths, you become enthralled with it, wanting to see just how bad each and every aspect of the film has been made. This is no fluke, a movie cannot be this bad without careful and meticulous planning. This is the work of a true craftsman, the master's touch is all over this one. Enjoy!

Horribly brilliant ...., April 25 2003
This review is from: Schlock (Widescreen) (DVD)
What can I say about this movie? You have to see it to believe it! After seeing it a couple of times you still will be asking yourself if this is the worst movie you have ever seen or is this a touch of genius, a masterpiece of bad taste. The storyline is horrible, the monster himself is absolutely ridiculous, the quality of acting in the picture is fantasticly poor...The jury is out: this movie is so bad it's brilliant!

Schlocktastic!, Feb 5 2003
This review is from: Schlock (Widescreen) (DVD)
I had never seen this movie before I bought it on DVD. Being a big fan of both Landis and the wonderful Baker "monster maker", I just had to see this "schlock classic," and it does not disappoint! The movie itself is fairly entertaining with many movie references for the film buff and some genuinely insane moments: the title character, The Schlockthropolus, is great fun. The BEST feature of this disc, however, is the feature length commentary by John Landis and Rick Baker. For cult film fans this commentary is a must, providing fun insight and inspiration to future filmmakers and schlock fans everywhere. Great fun, the four stars are for the pure enjoyment of this DVD. A lost classic and another gem from Anchor Bay.
