Review of TerrorVision (1986) by Robert H — 31 May 2013
I remember the first time I saw this film, the Beta tape looked so tempting from the shelf in Jumbo Video that I just had to see it. And boy did it pay off. I totally had a blast... of course, I was also a tween.
The second time I saw the film I was on a "date" with someone and she wanted something that was funny but maybe a little scary too. Seeing Terrorvision on the shelf I couldn't help but think back to my young days and think.
.. this would be perfect. Neither of liked the movie at all and turned it off after about 30 minutes. We had sex instead. Now having seen the film a third time... I am brought back to my childhood and loving everything about this film.
The low budget, over acting, crazy concept, lame humour, the dreadful 80s stereotypes, the great gooey grossness and physical FX, etc. all speak to me in ways that make me giddy with delight. Of course, the movie is still terrible.
But it's sooooo bad it's good. Well at least for me it is. What I'm most looking forward to is my next viewing of the film. If paterns continue it will mean I'm likely going to get laid at some point that night ;) Bring on the Terrorvision!!!!
