GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

qmtv Crappy screenplay, acting, cinematography, lighting, music/sound. The story was destroyed.I read the original story, and was entertained. I will reread it someday. This film/video sucked. The acting was amateurish. The dialogue sucked. The cinematography sucked, shaky camera, crap editing, and crap fx. It looks like some drunk clown was given a camcorder. Good luck with that! The music/sound sucked. The screenplay sucked. There was some mood and for that I'll give it 2 stars. However, for destroying the story, it must be brought down to 1. Failure. Thanks for nothing.

super marauder Dance Of the Dead deals with a post-war America. Millions of people are either dead or infected by 'blizz', an acid rain that eats your skin off of the bone, or if you live you are infected. Scary thought. Of course there pockets of civilization here and there trying to survive. Okay, what do do for entertainment? The story is about Peggy, a good hearted teenage girl who works in her mother's diner. In comes four teenage thugs and Peggy takes a liking to one of them. She sneaks away with him and sees what's out there by going to the 'Doom Room' a night club of sorts to see the 'dance of the dead'.All of the characters are likable, and Robert Englund's performance is really over the top! I like Tobe Hooper's camera tricks because they add to the insanity of the world in the story.Good story, fine acting, but not scary in terms of "BOO!" moments, but in the thought of how this can happen.

cgyford "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre" and "Poltergeist" director Tobe Hooper adapts sci-fi/horror legend Richard Matheson's short story of twisted teen romance in a post World War III wasteland with a script from the author's son and a score from Smashing Pumpkins front-man Billy Corgan as his controversial entry in the show's first season.Jonathan Tucker and Jessica Lowndes make for a cute on screen coupling, although the former never entirely convinces as a rough and ready street punk, whilst powerful support comes from Ryan McDonald, Marilyn Norry, Lucie Guest and a typically OTT turn from genre stalwart Robert Englund as the Doom Room MC.The master's post-apocalyptic dystopia has a curiously outdated 80's feel to it which couple with the pseudo-psychedelic camera techniques serve to district from the narrative thrust of the story but such is the immense imagination and originality of Matheson's genius that it nonetheless shines through.We're just here for the red.

RainDogJr Here we go with another episode of Season 1, this time the number 3 and the volume 11 of the Region 4 DVDs, Dance of the Dead. As you know, Tobe Hooper directed The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Poltergeist and this time he gives us a decent episode but unfortunately nothing more.The story takes place after the World War III and we have in Peggy (Jessica Lowndes) our protagonist. We know since the beginning that she, and her mother Kate (Marilyn Norry), is still suffering the dead of both her father and her sister but also both suffers the consequences of Blizz. Unfortunately the story focuses more in the typical relation between a teenage and his/her parents so with Peggy's new friends she is going to experience new things and is very conventional this part of the episode since it is just the classic awake of a teenage going against the authority and wanting to have new "experiences". The bar where the new "friends" of Peggy hang out has its main show in the dance of the dead and has in The M.C. (cool performance of Robert Fred Krueger Englund) its leader. Of course all of this are kind of the reflection of that post-war time and of course the best thing of this episode is its final part when you realize about the new "job" of Peggy's sister and why she has that "job". When you realize about the real story of Kate with her other daughter Anna, you will think something like "damn this episode could have been much better with the same basic story" and in the end, what dance?Then and finally, Tobe Hooper's first contribution to Masters of Horror is good to see just once but is also the weakest episode of the ones that I have seen that are only 6 (all from Season 1).
