Teringer An Exercise In Nonsense
Freaktana A Major Disappointment
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
Delight Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
Lee Eisenberg First of all, the title makes no sense. There's no evil spirits in this movie, so "Possession" is misleading. The relationship between the killer and his mother was obviously ripped off from "Psycho" (what's with the Oedipus complexes in horror movies?). Overall, this flick has everything that just about every other slasher movie has, except creativity. Most of it looks as if it got made for fun. I seriously doubt that Vancouver wants to be remembered for this. Among the much cooler horror flicks from Canada are "The Brain" and "The Clown Murders".So, this is definitely not one that I recommend...unless of course you want to see a few naked young women.
lthseldy1 This is one of the better of the cheezy and cheaper films I've seen so far under the likes of "Slumber Party Massacure", "Friday 13th" and "April Fools" day. It tries to take the same plot as "Phyco" but falls flat with the end of Frankies mother which could have been more usefull in the movie if her character would have continued on. Frankie plays a strange guy that is looking for love in all the wrong places like underground parking lots, male dance parties and apartment houses. He keeps finding the wrong girl, or what he thinks is the wrong girl and when his contience tells him this, he kills the girl. He then stalks a girl who got away and finds her at a party and begins stalking her there along with the rest of the group which gives him plenty of victims. Frankie is hillarious with his Gomer Pyle laugh, mad war makeup and intence facial expressions. He even kills me with the things he says "What are you doing? Mother would get mad if she saw you doing that, don't you ever do that again!" It's one of those movies that I like to watch just to get a good laugh and in my opinion the killings are even worth watching than most cheezy horror films.
capkronos This stinker, filmed in Vancouver, concerns a psycho (John Johnston) with a closet full of topless female corpses who kidnaps a blonde and makes her take her top off. She escapes, and after the cops do nothing one of her roommates says, "Come on, let's go get him!" (Yeah, right) This leads to the killer supposedly dying in an explosion. But, surprise, he returns to kill everyone. One girl takes a long shower; another takes a bubble bath. They both die. The other five girls from the same house and two male strippers go to a secluded mountain cabin and the killer follows. The guys dance in g-strings, have sex, then get killed. One girl takes a nude shower and gets her neck slit (the picture on the video box) and another girl sleeps in the nude. She dies too. See a pattern here? I only recognized one cast member here; lead actress "Melissa Martin," who appeared in JASON TAKES MANHATTAN a few years later, under the name Sharlene Martin.Score: 2 out of 10
NJJeffNJ I generally like grade B horror movies, but this one just plain 'ol stunk! Bad plot, acting, filming and dialog. Don't waste your time. Some movies are so bad they're funny. This one is so bad it'll just make you regret that you wasted 90 minutes of your life.
