So I got this movie awhile back and now I just go to watching it..
I love movies with Dont in the title..
Like
Don't Go Into The Basement
Don't Go Into The House
Don't Look in the Attic
Don't
Theres also another title for this movie called "The Burning"
Oh and this movies full of burning
So This movie basically follows this one guy named Donny who when a kid was tramatized by his mother burning him when ever he did anything bad or slightly bad, or she just thought he was thinking about something bad..
So one day as an adult, Donny goes home to his sick mother, only to find her dead..His reaction to finding his mother dead cracks me up, because its..slightly creepy
He instantly goes into denial saying shes sleeping..then he hears this voice in his head telling him that shes gone now and he's free to do what he wants and it will help him..
So what does he do?..What any other Man-Child with a strict crazy mother who burns them does!
Plays records loud and jumps on couches..
So then he hears his mothers voice to only realize she isnt alive..This happens alot, and he has nightmarish visions of the his burnt victims getting vengence..
So now that his mother is dead, he is no longer tortured by her..what does he do?
Well Donny goes picks up wemon, takes them to his house only to knock them out and burn them alive..
Its just like what Jesus would do..
So after killing a few people(though you only see one die..)
He goes to a priest and tells him his troubles(excluding the killing people thing)and asks for help..the priest gives him advice and asks to help him out..
Through out the movie he gets calls from his friend asking him to go with him to bars, or why hes not going to work..Their relationship is kinda wierd..I mean if his friend didnt have kids and a wife you would think hes gay..
Well after not killing people for awhile he and his friend decied to go to a Disco with 2 ladys..
This leads to one very long clothes shopping scene and another long disco scene..In the disco this girl tries to get him to dance, freaks him out and he throws a candle into her face...He then rushes out and gets his a** kicked by her brother..
Angry and freaking out he decieds to go back to killing esspecailly when 2 girls need a ride, and the only person picking people up is him..
So he knocks them both up and ties them up, meanwhile his friends are going to stop him(The guy and The Priest)
Once there they set free the girls, and the priest catches fire(Thats got to be blasphamous..)
Then he has a vision of all the people he killing going and attacking him as crispy zombies..he then burns the house down with him in it, and dies..Reminds me of another movie/book..(Carrey)
Then the last scene in the movie is a scene where this kid is hit by his mom and the voice the guy had goes to him now..
The soundtrack to this movie has kinda beat City Of The Dead by having more then 2 songs that arnt re-used from other movies..but the soundtrack is still pretty crappy..I mean its just Disco music..Which is really strange since its the 80's..
Also have a problem with the people in this movie catching fire..looks..wierd..
But Overall:
Overall:
Gore:4/10 I wish I could have seen more then just one person being burnt..
Quality:8/10 Pretty nice quality
Theme:1/10 Horrible Soundtrack
Villians:6/10 I liked the guy, hes more of a tortured demented person, who doesnt mean to do bad..
Screams:3/10
Overall:7/10
Fun to watch..but if its anything over 10$ its not worth it(I got mine for 7$)
Bodycount:
1.)First girl
2.)2nd Girl(Which you dont see get killed, but you see the burnt corpse)
3.)The Mother
4.)Donny
5.)3rd girl?(Not sure..if he killed 3..I think he did)
There were no good quotes so heres the taglines:
"Threshold into terror!"
"You Have Been Warned!"
"In a steel room built for revenge they die burning... in chains."
"It was too late to tell them.."
