Hulkeasexo it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.
jacobjohntaylor1 This movie is not scary. It is just boring stuff with collage kids. the last minute is kind of scary but not really. It has an awful story line. Awful acting. The ending is very awful.
Chris Barry Ring of Terror is one of those films that, after watching it, you feel compelled to tell everyone you know, if only to warn them about the trouble they will face if they are ever unfortunate enough to cross paths with this piece of total dreck.Imagine a film noir with no crime crossed with a horror movie with no horror and this is pretty much what you get.Astonishingly dull in every respect and yes, the college students all seem to be in their forties.I'd say it's like watching wallpaper dry but that's insulting to wallpaper.
hitfan I watched this movie at 2:00 AM on DVD. It's one of those public domain cheapies that you can buy in the bargain bins. I got mine as part of the 50 movie megapack "Nightmare Worlds" for which I paid $20 for. So this movie basically only cost me 40 cents.The best part of the movie is the graveyard caretaker who opens and closes the movie. The setting up of this character really does provide the mood and atmosphere. While not the greatest movie, I found it entertaining nonetheless and I was wondering how the protagonist was going to have his demise.For fans of 'retro horror' this might be worth a look.
mgconlan-1 I wouldn't call this the worst movie ever made (I'd save that dubious honor for "Shriek of the Mutilated," which I once made the mistake of watching on a local MST3K-type show called "Schlock Theatre" in San Diego in the early 1980's) but it's certainly right up there. Starting with the ponderous opening scene in the cemetery with that idiot narrator (who makes Criswell's contribution to "Plan Nine from Outer Space" seem brilliant by comparison) chasing his cat around the set (the cat, showing more intelligence than any of the humans connected with this film on either side of the camera, kept trying to get away), to the sequence in which the narrator gives away the entire plot (you can't write a "spoiler" about this film because the filmmakers already did it for you!) to the main part of the film in which a bunch of distinctly long-in-the-tooth actors you never otherwise heard of attempt to impersonate college students, to the soporific pacing and dialogue delivery and the fact that nothing happens until the very last few minutes of the movie, this film is just dull, dull, DULL! You keep wondering where's the ring, where's the terror, and what's the point of this film's existence. Even the MST3K crew couldn't make this entertaining, though they did have a lot of fun lampooning the, uh, "advanced" ages of the cast members.
