Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
TheLittleSongbird As bad as Return of the Living Dead: Necropolis, and it was (very), Rave to the Grave is even worse, few if any horror film series have ended on such a thud as much as the Return of the Living Dead did with this.Necropolis at least had some pretty good zombie make-up and one cool song saving it from total doom. Rave to the Grave has neither, making all of Necropolis' flaws and amplifying them to worse degrees as well as making more on the way. Like Necropolis, this movie is incredibly poorly made, camera work is haphazard and unfocused, editing is sloppy by making scenes interminably dull and sometimes incomplete-feeling, there is a complete lack of atmosphere and the special effects and pathetic zombie make-up looked like very last minute jobs. The music is once again overbearing and takes one out of the movie completely.Rave to the Grave's direction is incompetent, to call it anything like flat or sloppy would be insulting to those words and tension, fun (it even manages to be far too tiresome to have any kind of novelty value) and suspense is non-existent. The script is filled to the brim with stilted lines and misplaced and grating humour and what anything remotely resembling a story is thin, dull, dumb and sometimes incoherent with zero scares and even less tension. Once again the zombies, as well as looking bad this time around, are very underused and are both goofy and lifeless, you never feel the menace at all.The characters are paper thin and irritating and the acting is some of the laziest and most obnoxious of any movie I've seen recently. Overall, Necropolis may be and still is a disgrace but this final entry is even more so and by far the worst of the series. 1/10 Bethany Cox
GL84 Following his grandfather's death, a teen's discovery of hidden canisters containing a secret chemical causes a horde of flesh-eating zombies at their school's Halloween rave and forces them to stop the bloodthirsty creatures.There's a lot to like with this one as its quite fun. Among its better elements is the fact of this one going with a pronounced sense of fun here with detailing the way the events plays play out in here. From the start with the discovery of the canisters and how it leads to the revelation into the true contents inside, this brings about what could've been fun in the synthesized drugs leading to the zombie outbreak on the school campus. There's some good times to be had from the group going after the zombies in the dorms or out on the football field as the earlier scenes featuring the drugs being distributed which allow those fun action scenes to get paid off quite nicely. These here manage to set-up the craziest part of the film in its' finale as this gets way from the school encounters into the titular rave which really offers up a lot to like with the crowd dancing away in costumes providing a perfect backdrop to hide the victims getting ripped apart, the frantic panicking of the crowd provides a ton of great action and there's tons of exciting action here in this one doling out the big attack where swarm is quipped out by an attack helicopter that's really spectacular. As well, there's some genuinely creepy scenes involving their attempted escape from a horde of zombies in a black-lit room illuminated only by the gunshots in the room that's balanced out by the comedy of the bumbling agents for a rather complete scene here. Add in fantastic zombie make-up for the creatures and rather impressive kills and gore that all gives this one a lot of good points against the few small flaws here. The main one here is the rather convoluted way this one goes about getting the virus and drugs across the campus. The way it works before in getting the capsule and the ever-increasing swarm of zombies into the film's action was rather fun, yet once that's been curtailed the clunky way it switches over to the party is a little off- beat to feel shoehorned into the film like this, especially with it being the film's main point here. While some of the humor is hit-or- miss, especially with the sudden appearance and running joke of the series' main zombie villain appearing, on the whole these are the main issues holding it down.Rated R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, pervasive drug use, and Nudity.
fabjoerob such a TERRIBLY BAD movie shouldn't have been/be made...SERIOUSLY.SUCH A WASTE OF PRECIOUS MONEY,TIME etc...can't BELIEVE THIS!!!1...CAN'T BELIEVE I watched PT.4 and 5 from START TO FINISH as a result from the 2nd half of this movie,i started to think,when will this movie(READ TORMENT)ever end?!!!.the only worth watching factor were the main protagonists,but sadly,even they didn't really take away the Disappointment/BOREDOM FACTOR.and those 2 terribly cheesy FBI wannabes?!!!...i don't even want to mention them.and tar man?!!!...can't the makers just let him ROT IN PEACE?.even after 20 yrs At least still A 'REALLY SHORT LIVED'CAMEO?!!!.oh well...At least he WON'T HAVE TO chase after victims WITH HIDEOUS 80'S FASHIONS ANY LONGER...HEEHEE....I'M SOOO BAD...such a TOTAL DISRESPECT to the 80's ones i feel...they were the best...the makers should have invested the precious money of these movies into something MUCH MORE SERIOUS...I SERIOUSLY weep for those who rent them,better yet,those who WATCH THEM IN THE THEATRES...SOB SOB!!!
TdSmth5 Granted that none of the sequels compares to the original, this movie is quite good. Filmed in Romania, it has very good production values for a B-movie. The visuals are good, the effects are good, although it looks like some gore may have been edited out; the cast is so so. The re-recording has it's problems. The story worked for me: a college kid discovers tanks of the infamous trioxin at his dead uncles home. His buddies try it immediately to see if it makes them high and then start selling it as a drug. Meanwhile, two goofy Interpol agents are on the search for all trioxin tanks out there. There are a few funny moments, perhaps not as many as the producers intended. The gore effects are excellent, the main zombie that appears later in the movie looks great. Speaking of looking great, there are plenty of hot babes who don't mind getting topless. I guess it takes foreign filmmakers to bring back fun horror movies the way they're supposed to be: bloody, gory, fun, with hot naked chicks. If you're tired of PG-13 "horror" with no gore and no nudity, then this movie is worth checking out.
