A product of the times, Oct 14 2003
This review is from: Trick or Treat (DVD)
Do any of you remember when all that bull that came out in the 80's about playing records backwards and how they had subliminal messages? Well that little controversy is main point of this film. When a teenage metal head plays a demo record of his favorite dead heavy metal singer backwards, he resurrects him as a demonic force. Why this hasn't become an even bigger cult classic than it already is is beyond me. This film is a definate product of the times. I am a huge 80's heavy metal fan, and I really enjoyed all my favorite bands making an appearance in this film in some way or another. The lead characters mom is going through his record collection with a shocked look on here face, and one of the records she comes across is Megadeth - Killing Is My Business. That just made me smile because Megadeth is one of my favorite groups. This film is a must watch for 80's horror film fans and heavy metal fanatics. It may have a silly premesis, but its played straight, and it has great results.

the best movie in metal history, July 12 2004
This review is from: Trick or Treat (DVD)
i was still very young when this movie was made, but i still remember how things were in the 80's and i wish more everyday that things were still like that. its like a flashback everytime i watch this movie. marc price done a great job playing the metalhead outcast which i can really relate to. its one of the only movies that makes you almost feel like your in that time period 20 years later. the 2nd half is a little cheesy, but its well worth seeing. the movie and soundtrack will always be one of my all time favs. i highly suggest it to the next generation of kids who want to see what the 80's were like. this is it. this is how it was!
