Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%
Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.
drhackenstine Flat, boring horror movie shot and directed with little talent on a low-budget. A group of annoying, over-aged teenagers on vacation, come across a possessed movie script that basically makes life miserable for them. Some of them are killed off in dumb, cheesy, supernatural ways. The others try to make sense of what's going on and try to stop the evil movie script. Ken Sagoes stars in this, and when things start to get hairy, as usual, he has his swearing fits (see A Nightmare On Elm Street 3+4). Features evil bikers, a psychotic glam/cheese rock band, monsters, gore, a smashed in skull, boobs, bad-acting, an idiot running around with a kite, and so on, but none of it is as fun as it sounds. The story is horribly paced, making this a bore to watch, even with all the crazy elements it tries to throw in. You might wanna see it if you are trying to see every horror movie in the world, but otherwise, find something else. One Star.
mattressman_pdl This spirited little low-budget horror film deserves more than it's reputation. I had the fortune of picking this film up (believe it or not) on DVD and needless to say I wasn't expecting much from a film called Death by Dialogue, with a possessed script and an 80's alt-rock band starring Ken Sagoes, who was one of my favorite characters from NOES. The film does have some ultra cheesy moments but it's decently crazy and gory at times. Plus...nudity. I'd say if you find it on television or in the old releases at your local videostore, be a good-little slasherhound and pick it up and give it a view. As stupid as it is it's worth at least that much.
insomniac_rod It turned out to be a mess."Death By Dialogue" is your typical low budget direct to video crap that is produced after someone's fame. The movie's tag line shown in the cover is "Staring Ken Sagoes, the survivor from "A Nightmare On Elm Street Part III". Sagoes character, Roland Kincaid became an instant favorite on the Elm Stree series and it's very lame to cast him only because of that and worse, make publicity on him.Anyways, "Death By Dialogue" is a joke. There's involuntary humor, cheesy (I mean CHEESY) f/x and boring situations that could desperate the most patient Horror fan. This isn't a must see even to criticize or laugh about. Please, stay away from this trash and don't get fooled by the cover art or the premise, which is as dumb as you can get.Ugh.
dead_dudeINthehouse "Death By Dialogue" is by no means a good slasher, in fact, it came out when the genre was going downhill.. Watch it just to have something to laugh about. I don't think someone can take this film seriously.I won't even talk about the storyline as it's very BORING -not to say stupid-. The producers tried to make a bizarre sci-fi horror film but the result is a pooor slasher attempt. The highlight of the film is Ken Sagoes' major role in the film. I wonder why he didn't last long in the genre. The box features a demonic character surrounded by the 6 peak star... Definately a terrible film that didn't add something to the genre.1/10
