Review of Alive (1993) by Moofi — 13 Feb 2015
Clearly best Splattermovie I´ve seen to date (uncut already during the 90´s). Besides its fabulous (actually funny) overdriven scenes it shows a lot creativity + originality in scenery, casts, conversations, masks, etc..
The characters are distinct, well-chosen and implemented beautifully. Quotes like "Your mother ate my dog!!! -- ...Not all of it." or "I kick ass for the Lord" are simply classics.
I´m wondering why the movie has been banned in many places, being a comedy after all.
Braindead is very much recommended if one´s in for out-of-the-usual entertainment in this genre.
At the time I heard it had been elected "Best horror-movie of the 20th century" and while this doesn´t seem to be officially true, it is here.
