Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

jadavix This movie's title, "Evil Toons", is a misnomer. There is only one "toon" in this movie, so the word should be written in the singular. Furthermore, this animated creature only appears for about a scene and a half - in the beginning, when summoned by some mysterious ancient book, and at the end, when it is vanquished, promising to return in "the sequel", though I don't think they made one.Only the first scene really features any human-cartoon interaction, and this ain't "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" The animation is so poor that I assume the movie's micro budget couldn't really afford to do it, even when it's this shoddy, for more than a few minutes of screen time.I think the four starlets were supposed to be college girls because, well, aren't they always? One of them looks to be in her early forties, and when the token slut invites her jock boyfriend in, he doesn't look any younger, with his thinning hair and beer gut.Of the four, only two are attractive, but of course they all show their breasts. The slut one is among the attractive half of the cast, at least until she takes her top off and we see some weird looking nipple location. Picture a bug-eyed boy with a fly on the end of his nose. I assume these are fake, if not because of their (not overly generous) size, certainly because of the nipples. Mother nature doesn't make them that close together, right?The other attractive one, and the only one who generates any sympathy from the audience, is played by the beautiful Monique Gabrielle, who looks much younger than the other three and only has one topless scene.The other two women have that bizarre '80s style hair that looks like animal fur, like they were dressed in Chewbacca costumes for their last movie and forgot to take the headpiece off. They look much older, if I haven't made that point strongly enough yet, and neither are much to look at, besides.Aside from Gabrielle, the movie does have something else going for it: Dick Miller. Miller is good in anything. David Carradine also shows up, looking suitably creepy, but not doing much else.This movie really has nothing else that might make it worth watching. For a movie supposedly about "evil toons" there is only one toon who is badly animated and barely glimpsed, most of the women are old and ugly, and the "story" is just cliché without any life at all. This is for Monique Gabrielle and Dick Miller die-hards only.

ShootingShark Four women are staying the weekend in a spooky house they've been hired to clean, but before long one of them has been possessed by a demon unwittingly brought to life and embarks on a murderous rampage.I really like this movie. It's cheap, it's stupid, it doesn't really make sense and it has a bunch of young women taking their tops off every five minutes. It does have some bad points too, but it's a lot of fun and that's what counts. Mostly I like it because of the cast; Gabrielle as the wide-eyed ingenue and Stone as the sexpot pixie toon demon vampiress are both wonderful and hilarious in equal measures. Stone really eats up the screen and has a deliciously naughty delivery, licking Gabrielle's blood and observing, "Tangy ! But not too tart ... "; I wish she'd made more movies. As well as that we have old pros Carradine and Miller, both playing it straight, bless their cotton socks, and cult favourite Bauer in a black teddy. The plot is some mumbo-jumbo about a haunted book, soul-shrouds and a cursed researcher of arcane arts called Gideon Fisk (great name), but is diverting enough to cover the film's charming budgetary limitations. There's also a great title sequence by Bret Mixon and a jaunty keyboard score by Chuck Cirino that keeps everything moving along, whilst the film keeps coming up with engagingly goofy scenes like the one where Stone tries to open the wine bottle. In the late eighties/early nineties there were a lot of these agreeable tongue-in-cheek no-budget horror comedies, well made by the likes of Ray, David DeCoteau and particularly Jim Wynorksi. This is one of Ray's best, but a lot of them are great fun, for example Bad Girls From Mars or Dinosaur Island. Flesh fans should note that both Stone and Nix are adult-movie stars; Nix (whose real name is Stacy Mitnick) under the screen-name Barbara Dare.

Lee Eisenberg "Evil Toons" is one of many wacky comedy-horror flicks deliberately not taking itself seriously. This one has four twentyish women staying in an old mansion to spend the weekend cleaning it. A strange old man (David Carradine) gives them a book, which they read and release an evil spirit that materializes as a lecherous canine cartoon character and goes after the girls one by one.Of course, the movie's main strength is the women's nude scenes. Roxanne does a striptease, Megan fondles herself in front of a mirror, and there's other things. In fact, the DVD precedes the movie with an introduction by director Fred Olen Ray...and he's surrounded by naked women with breasts the size of watermelons. Really cool! (does it make me a chauvinist pig for saying that?) But overall, this is just a very funny movie. Probably the neatest character is B-movie veteran Dick Miller as the boss. In one scene, he watches Roger Corman's "A Bucket of Blood" - starring himself - and wonders why the star never won an Academy Award. I agree. On the Oscars just this past Sunday, they missed another chance to award him! Also starring Arte Johnson as the neighbor.

hippiedj *CONTAINS SPOILERS*The story: a group of walking breast implants are hired to clean a house with a badly drawn cartoon demon inside. Basically, Evil Toons is an insult. Fred Olen Ray tried to figure a way to work a "horror" story around situations where gals are topless and shaking their goods, and manages to only get about five minutes of titillating footage in a 90 minute boring feature. If naked gals are what you really want, your money and time is better spent on a silly Girls Gone Wild video. And for what I see they are wanting as a price for Evil Toons right now, you can get at least TWO of the other. Let's face it, the story to Evil Toons was never meant to be interesting anyway, so why sit through a bunch of nothing just to get to some nudity? And don't tell me it's because you actually want a legitimate film.The title Evil Toons is quite incorrect. It should actually be EVIL TOON instead, as there is only one "toon" that appears (and rather badly) for such brief few moments. To then save on the budget for animation Fred Olen Ray has the toon "possess" one of the gals. Then to assure topless scenes, she then attacks the others making sure to tear off their tops first before killing them. Even the scene with the gal stripping and dancing is more laughable than enticing, as the way she shakes her stuff looks rather jarring instead of fun. I still can't figure out how he managed to stretch the time out on this one with so little of what guys are going to be looking for. It's that boring.After seeing David Caradine in a film like Trick Or Treats, I didn't think he do worse than that film -- I was wrong. Here, he just sort of stands near a tree and that's about it. Dick Miller and Arte Johnson are completely wasted here as well. I almost expected Arte to wear his helmet from Laugh-In at one point and say "Verrry INteresting...but STUPID!" to sum up the film at some point. It's sad to see actors like these showing up in something so worthless -- at least a film like The First Nudie Musical delivers all the goods and the known actors in that can still feel respectable.I realize this was intended as silly stupid sexy fun. Of the four previous words I just mentioned, stupid is the only one that fits. It's not sexy, not funny enough, obviously not scary (I don't think that was even expected), and the time wasted to get to the parts that are the draw of the film (the breasts) makes the nudity boring once you get there.I first saw Evil Toons when it was first released on video back in 1990. This film isn't worth it if were handed to you for free. Don't let Fred Olen Ray sucker you out of even a buck for this. All the reviews you see from guys that like it are obviously focusing on the actresses and their breasts -- but geez, they aren't even given all that much to do to even show just how sexy they can truly be. I wish I could get back the 90 minutes taken from my life because of this "film." I've had more fun standing in line at the post office or the bank.
