Review of Blood Sucking Freaks (1976) by Todd S — 22 May 2010

[font=Times][size=4]1978 US Director: Joel M. Reed[/size][/font].

[font=Times][size=4]Score: 4[/size][/font].

[font=Times][size=4] Considered by many to be a ?cult classic? I feel that title is over used now-a-days, and this is one of the films it is over used on. I?ll admit, many parts of this movie are so ridiculously bad, so eye-rollingly stupid, that it made me chuckle. I don?t see that as a qualification for ?cult hit? status. This film was straight up sexploitation horror and nothing more. The effects used to achieve its ?shocking? scenes of gore were not bad for the era it was made in, but not cutting edge even in that day. The story has some interesting elements in it, but also some gaping logic holes. The soundtrack is useless and even worse at times than useless, it reaches into the category of annoying. Most of the acting from the majority of the cast is unintentionally funny due to it being so cheesy. As a genre curiosity this one might deserve the attention of hard core horror fans, otherwise it is a total waste of time.[/size][/font].
