The death scenes are very well done, and then you've got to thank Toe Tag Pictures for the great SPFX work. Other than that though, the movie is pretty shitty. A lot of hype and not much else, I've come to hate the movie much less these days, but still not one I consider good.

For every movie that exists there has to be someone who likes it.

You're not alone though, there are a couple here who like it, including Metapher.

toe tag does have good effects! and theres no denying that. I think the director of the AU films, Vogel, could be a very good director, but goddamn Toe tag movies are some of the most boring movies ever

I'll admit, the movie isn't entirely good. The only reason I'd say to watch it would have to be the gore effects in the film. Otherwise, skip it.

I am totally intrigued....so many opinions. I must see this....:hmmm:

yeah, the gore effects are well done...but I just got the feeling that the only reason the director made the movie was for the sake of just making people would be grossed out at...not real point or drive for the movie. I'm all for exploitation cinema, but not when it's made by someone with a severe lack of talent

I really don't see Nick Palumbo making another horror movie anyways as he has managed to piss off a lot of people in the horror business. Including Fed Vogel and TTP. Not to mention the fact that he sold almost all of his stuff, I'm pretty sure you can still find it on ebay, he has his domain name and company up for sale for $3-4k.

Had to see this..and I had to see it soon...so I did it. Watched it on this veohtv thingy...Yeah..so I am new to underground films..easily amused by all the gore and taboo subject matter.....this was fantastic!! woooooooo wonderful ending to my perfect day. Acting was mediocre..but so what. Awesome killing scenes, the insane killer was..just that..insane , sick perverted...hell yes, just how I like them.This film shows the depravity that exists in the world that most choose to ignore and pretend doesn't exist. Took on a subject matter that I have never seen before. The film quality is superb.. the background music and soundtrack are dead on. A vicious film that is very well made. :rocker: 8/10

The film is good and look beutiful as it's shot on 35mm. The director is a complete tool however. Avoid the "R" rated version like the plauge they cut out ALL the blood and I do mean ALL OF IT!!!

zombhorror

01-05-2009, 11:13 PM

best buy just sells the r rated i you have to get the unrated online unless some store luckily sells it theres too much in there to cut out the r rated is probably very shitty

I thought it was a beautiful film.. loved the music.. blood.. not gory enough though, for me. And the German outbursts were kinda annoying.

Murder-Set-Pieces is a guilty pleasure at best IMO, it is completely derrivative and exploitative, relying solely on the gore and sensationalism and not quality or character development. That being said, it has its place and its audience. The R-rated version should never have come into existence, since it completely removes anything that makes the film worth watching.

I don't know if anyone else got this, but the copy I once owned had terrible audio clipping and shots of static out of nowhere. Did anyone else experience this? I couldn't get through the movie all too well based on how bad my audio was (no matter what tv or sound system it was on).

Watched this one earlier...pretty sick. Death scenes were wicked. Held my interest...barely

Wouldn't give it high praise like some critics have ...i.e. Fangoria.

Found this film to be absolutely dreadful, did nothing for me. just seemed pointless.

Sven Garrett was flat out horrible.

:starefreak: I just asked how much of the city you can see in it...

koolmike

08-04-2009, 03:12 AM

Didn't see your question. I would recommend you see it being that you're from Vegas. Don't wanna spoil it.

Metapher

08-04-2009, 03:46 AM

Like Cata mentioned earlier, I am a fan. To some degree. It's no masterpiece and should only be thought of as you would think of a trashy 70's sexploitation movie. Just sit back and enjoy the ride. There are cool killings and excellent Toetag Pictures effects, and that's all I have ever asked from this film.

But yeah, Nick Palumbo is a major tool. He said he quit the horror business, sold lots of TTP stuff that they personally gave him because they were friends, and also tried to sell both his world rights for Nutbag and Fright Flix's website. And now he's back with "Corpse". I'll watch it, but he's still an ass.

Been wondering on this solely because it was set in Vegas. Does the city play a role in it at all or was it just a random setting/location they decided to go with.

<~ Went to the same hs as Cerina Vincent. She was a senior when I was a freshman I believe...

Maybe someone who actually likes the movie and has watched it more than once can give you a better or correct answer (incase mines not). As far as I recall though, Las Vegas didn't have too much to do with the story.

There are a few shots with Vegas in the background, and the amount of prostitution does play into who the killer kill's, but other than that it's just a location. Not completely random, but doesn't impact the story much.

The movie amused me somewhat... some minor little barely noticable details that made me smile...

Like the wet nasty "Schlorp!" sound made when he pulls out of a rape victim... found out later that the "shlorp" sound was captured from some dude eating watermelon... cracked me up.

Yeah... I'm a sick fucker...

Otherwise most of the truly "SHOCKING" moments of the movie that has given it it's notoriety are nothing that I haven't seen before... when you are a fan of nasty underground horror, there's very little that can shock you... it's all about how it is delivered.

Agreed. I only recommended that he watch it because it is filmed in his home town. I love seeing movies that are filmed in my town, even if they're not the best.
Always look for people
I know in the background :D.

I wouldn't be surprised if I'm the only one making films in my home town :D Not that fun to scout people in the background when watching them then.
