Stometer Save your money for something good and enjoyable

VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?

Megamind To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.

triple8 SPOILERS THROUGH:This was really creepy but REALLY GOOD! First I must start by saying this was a GREAT idea!! To bad it wasn't released as a major motion picture. I think there's an audience for this and it would have done really well! This is basically The Twilight Zone-rock-n-roll style. There are four stories, one right after the other and each one is rock oriented while keeping the original Twilight Zone premise. Whoever thought this up is a genius.As for the stories-they all varied. The first one, Disco Inferno could have been a story in itself and concerns two metal heads(boys) who....WARNING-MINOR SPOILER ON THE DISCO INFERNO STORY!Find hell as one big Disco. That's all I'm gonna say. This was supposed to be funny and it WAS to an extent but I actually found it rather creepy as well. Seeing these tough biker/metal dudes morph right on screen into disco guys freaked me out. I also felt a little hypocritical laughing because I LOVE BOTH METAL AND DISCO!! But that didn't detract from empathizing with these kids for the idea of being trapped forever in their worst nightmare. Definitely the best story.The 2nd one was REALLY creepy but the bantering about the different musical generations was funny too and the storyline in general was fascinating. Actually, I take it back about Disco Inferno being the best, the first two were equal.The third one about the maid and the rock star(room service?) again-familiar theme-both comic and sad, the lady who played the maid was GREAT-this story was good too.The LAST one however(more then a feeling I think it was called) I DID NOT LIKE AT ALL!!) MAJOR SPOILER AHEAD!!This was not only just plain sad, but heartbreaking and rather twisted(scratch the "rather" on that.) Didn't go with the rest and didn't belong in the movie. Lousy way to end a great hour or two.This is a must see for any music fan- a MUSTSEE-VH1 should make more of these and I am surprised this, or something similar hasn't been brought to the big screen yet.

THEHELLHECOULD A very original movie (in a derivative kind of way!!!) First saw it on cable and it was a nice surprise as I was not expecting anything of it. Particularly liked the hitchhiker story .

khanada rhodes this is a really good movie. like the taglines say, it's the twilight zone meets rock n roll. of course, my favourite is "room service." it features john taylor. too bad they identified him as "john taylor of duran duran," even though he quit the band over four years ago! anyway, this really showcases his acting talents to the general vh1-viewing public, since i'm sure 95% of the people watching it haven't seen "sugar town." i just hope he doesn't keep getting typecasted as playing a rock-n-roller in all his movies. he was previously in "a diva's christmas carol," but unlike that movie, and "sugar town," this movie shows his ability to act as a serious person, and also kind of lets us see what life might have been like for him in the mid/late 80's (the fame, the parties, the girls, the hotel rooms). a great movie!

Phantom-43 I was pleasantly surprised by this little anthology film. It's not half-bad. A little bit Twilight Zone, a little bit Urban Legends, a little bit...well, VH1. It takes a lot of legends and conventions about rock starts, the music business, and the effect of music on our lives and does some pretty cool things with it. But as is the case with most anthology films, not all are created equal. There's one story that's very good, a couple of cute ones, and one bad one. But even the bad one isn't THAT bad. The first story, "Disco Inferno" is that one. It's not so much bad as it is very predictable. A couple of stoners who don't have much going for them except that they're rabid rock fans get into an accident driving home from a concert, and find themselves at a mysterious club where disco lives all night long. I'm probably spoiling the ending, but it's pretty obvious that they've died and gone to hell...and for them, hell is disco. I can relate. The best thing about this tale is that it features Danny Masterson putting a spin on his "That 70's Show" character. The second tale, "My Generation" is weird and darkly funny. It's about two music-loving, philosophically-minded serial killers who meet up and square off in the Pacific Northwest. If you can get over Eric Roberts as the psychotic Deadhead, you're in for a rather humorous satirical statement on music of this generation and the one before, how they compare and, perhaps, how the statement of the music of the 60's was lost on both generations involved. The third, "Room Service," is pretty straightforward. The story of the constantly-escalating battle of wills between an excess-loving, hotel-room trashing rock star (Geez, they still do that?), and the ultra-efficient housekeeping matron who manages to clean up all his messes with superhuman skill. It's fun to watch because it's so contrived, so based on legend that the tale seems familiar (and check it out, the guy from Duran Duran! An actual excess-loving rock star playing himself!). Not great, but fun. The final tale, "More than a Feeling" is the darkest and the best. It's the story of a recording company exec with a conscience (and no, that's not the fantasy part), who has a talent for picking the next rising star. Unfortunately, every one of his charges rises fast and crashes and burns even faster. This leaves him with guilt beyond all measure, and leaves him ultra-protective of his latest - and last surviving - artist, a young and talented female vocalist played with big-eyed innocence by Marla Sokoloff. I was a little thrown by this one, it being so dark and having Judd Nelson playing a character that wasn't a total sleaze, but in the end I was impressed - especially by the ultra-chilling final scene. Not a mast
