Movie Maniac added 1 item to Terror Blurbs! Part II (An Ever-Expanding List) list

Plot: Nature revolts as birds attack the denizens of a small town, some of which we follow as they flee. This movie did for horror what Tommy Wiseau's The Room did for drama. Namely, inadvertently create a film so abysmal that one can't help but revel in its aggressive awfulness. The only shock and terror here lies in the quality (or lack thereof) of the acting, scripting, directing, effects, and, well, everything else. Truly wretched but a must for fans of "so bad, it's good" type flicks. If you really want to amp up the misery, take in the behind the scenes material that reveals the delusion and ego of the director. Hitchcock this is not.

Movie Maniac added 1 item to Terror Blurbs! Part II (An Ever-Expanding List) list

Plot: Another grim anthology from Amicus Production with stories written by Robert Bloch (Psycho) all centering on the patients of an asylum. Armed with an interesting framing story that nicely ties into the events by the end and starring an assortment of familiar faces for fans of British horror, "Asylum" packs a somewhat distinctive punch with tales that wouldn't feel out of place in an EC comic or an episode of The Twilight Zone. The stranger stories come off stronger (especially the final section) than the one more "thriller-esque" entry but, all in all, they show why Amicus was renown and beloved for their anthologies. A delight for fans of Brit horror, anthologies, and movies that achieve a lot despite budgetary limitations.

Plot: A reckless man looking to get on the good side of the union of vampire hunters so that he can secure his family's future stumbles into the crosshairs of a rising vampire queen. A dash of exploitation, some horror, shades of buddy comedy, lots of camp and grue, and liberal nods to influences ranging from Omega Man to From Dusk Till Dawn make "Day Shift" something of a busy smorgasbord. The action will please with its neat over-the-top choreography and creative brutality while the comedy is a bit hit or miss, though never bad. Some plot points and characters feel a bit anemic and the soundtrack teases greatness before tucking away the selections before they fully flavor the flick. Still, despite its glaring flaws, the film is breezy, inoffensive fun.
