You might think that a movie named MURDER ROCK would have some rock music in it. Unfortunately, in this case, you would be completely wrong. This was pretty much the start of Lucio Fulci directing really crappy horror films up until he died, which is a shame because his earlier 80's films are some of my favorite gore masterpieces. You might also think a movie from a guy known as "The Godfather Of Gore" might have thrown a few gruesome kills into this giallo-esque story of a black-gloved killer but again you would be wrong here. Your killer here prefers to chloroform his victims and then stick a hatpin into them which might be one of the most boring un-cinematic ways to kill someone besides maybe just choking them or bonking them on the head with a club. This one is all-around disappointing for gore-hounds looking for a fix or giallo fans looking for an interesting plot. On the plus side if you enjoy spandex-clad female asses and homages to the movie FLASHDANCE(one of the alternate titles for this is, appropriately enough, SLASHDANCE) this might work for you, otherwise not so great. AKA THE DEMON IS LOOSE & DANCING DEATH
This movie even makes a shitty music video!:
Would this even be fatal? Certainly not instantly. Not sure how effective this method of murder would be in reality.
ReplyDeleteI suppose if the pin was thick enough and you stick someone in the heart with it it might be fatal. I'm no doctor though(or a serial killer) so I'm not entirely sure about this method.
ReplyDeleteThis makes me think of the scene in PULP FICTION where they inject Uma Thurman's heart with adrenaline. Seems like it might be a risky procedure but most likely not instantly fatal.
