Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

Excellent, a Must See

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

The tagline here reads "Imagine "The Twilight Zone" on Rock 'n' Roll." I wouldn't go that far, but it was amusing for what it was. I guess this was a show that aired on VH-1, and it's about what you'd expect of a scripted series on a cable music channel. One fun episode features two metalheads who end up in "disco hell." Another stars Eric Roberts and Chris Masterson as dueling music-lovin' serial killers from two different generations who go at each other (very similar to the "Pick Me Up" MOH episode, really.) My favorite one is about an obnoxious rock star who trashes his hotel suite every night to tick off the sweet elderly room service lady, who has some tricks up her own sleeve. The last episode is the only one with a serious tone, starring Judd Nelson as a record exec who gets a "calling" whenever he hears talent that will hit it big. Unfortunately for his up and coming acts, they all kick the bucket in some godawful way as soon as their records start to sell. Overall, it isn't anything groundbreaking or frightening, but it's an amusing show that most rock fans can probably appreciate.

I basically really liked Strange Frequency, except for one part: the final story, "More Than a Feeling". Although Judd Nelson does really well in this segment, I found the story to be simply too disturbing for me. Also, since the other three stories were obviously intended to be funny, why couldn't they have done the same for this one? However, the other three segments are all thoroughly enjoyable. The first story, "Disco Inferno", was OK, and I thought it was funny to see that guy turn into a disco dancer(I'm not naming anyone, for fear of this being considered a spoiler). The second story, "My Generation", was quite good. Eric Roberts and Chris Masterson do a great job in creating these two interesting, entertaining characters, and I couldn't help laughing when they were discussing which of them should kill certain people, and with what weapon.My favorite story, however, was the third one, "Room Service". John Taylor makes an excellent rock star degenerate/ hotel trasher, and I also really liked the calm, prissy maid, although I fail to see how she could put up with guests like him. My two favorite scenes in this segment were when the maid is telling the reporter about all of the musical legends that stayed at that hotel( I loved how she referred to all of them as Mr., such as Mr. Presley, Mr. Jagger,etc.) and the immensely funny scene in which Jimmy was involved in that little feud with the maid. I couldn't stop laughing as I watched the maid calmly repair all the almost irreparable damages Jimmy did to the hotel room. All in all, this was a pretty good movie.

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!

I think it's hilariously ironic that the writers of the "Disco Inferno" episode of STRANGE FREQUENCY made hell into a disco. I find that would be my luck... I die and go to hell and it's just YMCA playing again and again on an endless loop. I was definitely into the second episode, "My Generation". How true it is.... how growing up and listening to my father's music I would chide it because it was not good like the stuff I was listening to (and that stuff, growing up was all hair bands...). It takes the argument of whose generation of music is better to a whole new scary level... I should have paid more attention to the third episode, as I clean up peoples' messes for a living. However, it lost me on its moral revenge message. The final episode disturbed me. I find it very unnerving a father would actually trick his daughter like this one did at the end. I understand his motives, but still find that he was a little slightly off his rocker.
