SPLATTER: THE ARCHITECTS OF FEAR (1986)


  Canadian-made shot on video crap that really stretches the definition of what you can call a movie. The makers of this are going for the whole movie-within-a-movie thing except the wraparound movie is a pretty dull documentary about how they did all the not-so-great gore fx in the other movie which is some nonsense about post-apocalyptic, Amazonian, new-wave chicks killing and/or being killed by mutant fellows. A guy gets fucked to death here with his head exploding and it makes no sense.  At least this section of the show has the decency to throw some completely nude very hot looking ladies into the scenes to liven things up but that's about the only positive point that can be made about this unless you are an FX guy planning on traveling back to the past and doing dodgy FX work. As a bonus it all plays out while grating synthesizer "music" drones on not even giving you the ability to sleep through this making it all go away. A good example of how anything could get a VHS release back in the 80's.

  1. Not worth a buck! I hate this movie and I hate Fang. I wrote a pretty mean review on this movie once. Now its your turn.

  2. I hate Fang with his shitty Renfield impersonation so much that I didn't even mention him. Why would they put a completely fake character into a documentary? It's all so stupid!

  4. It does have tits(and even bare vagina)and blood. Too bad it's in such a gratingly bad video. If you miss your old tape and want it back it's on eBay for very cheap: http://www.ebay.com/itm/SPLATTER-ARCHITECTS-OF-FEAR-VHS-Gore-Special-FX-/380457447734?pt=VHS&hash=item589507f136

  5. Haha I'm sure you will get more then a buck for it. However I can't say you made out because you still had to sit through it.
