Earth is a desolate wasteland in Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. Humanity has been decimated by an invasion of Phantoms, insubstantial aliens that extract and devour the spirits of living things. The few remaining humans have retreated to a handful of cities that are protected by massive bio-energy shields. The beautiful Dr. Aki Ross (voiced by Ming-Na) and her mentor Dr. Sid (Donald Sutherland) have discovered that the energy signatures of eight key Earth spirits can cancel out and destroy the Phantoms. With the help of Captain Edwards (Alec Baldwin) and his band of marines, they must scour the globe for the last two remaining spirits before General Hein (James Woods) manipulates the refugee government into attacking the aliens with an orbital laser that may also destroy the Earth.

Hironobu Sakaguchi's film is taken from the popular Final Fantasy video game franchise, which is particularly well suited to film adaptation with its series of original stories, but the movie features entirely new characters and settings. And like Toy Story and Shrek, Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within is completely computer generated. Unlike those cartoon comedies, though, The Spirits Within is a serious science fiction drama with astonishingly human digital actors. Aki, the female lead, appeared in a full-page spread in Maxim magazine's Hot 100 list--and was indistinguishable from the real-life models. The setting and conflict make for incredible action, but it's the larger issues, character interaction, and human elements that really make the movie shine. The Spirits Within is not simply a science fiction movie, in the same way that Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is not simply a kung fu flick. The result is a fantastic summer movie with better action and more emotion than Pearl Harbor, and actors more lifelike than those in that other video game movie, Tomb Raider. --Mike Fehlauer

I would have preferred a live action version of one of the games..........2007-06-21

I will admit, I don't own this DVD. This review is based on having seen it in the theaters.

I was excited to hear about this movie being released, because I enjoyed the games, I had played up through FF8(I don't even remember if 9 was out yet) and I was excited to see my favorite games on the screen. I asked myself, "This is going to be cool! What storyline are they going to come up with this time?"

Unfortunately, I didn't get any indication from any of the reviews in the papers. They all preferred to focus on the novelty of taking computer animated characters and making them all look perfectly real like this was going to be the end of live acting in Hollywood once and for all. Movie reviewers now were debating the pros and cons of computer animated "actors," and I'm sitting there going, "Oh, to hell with that! What's the story about?" Because that's what I loved about the games.

Finally, I saw the movie. And for someone expecting to see a new Final Fantasy-esque storyline on the silver screen, my expectations were not met. First off, after being taken to such places as Baron and Figaro and Midgar and Balamb, why does the movie start off in New York City? Don't get me wrong, I love New York-it's just not Final Fantasy.

Next, the movie is literally all dialogue. Nowhere do you have the random battles, the strengthening of characters in battle, and the preparation for the final face-to-face showdown at the end of the movie. In fact, there was no final face-to-face showdown. The good guys are all on Earth while the bad guy is up in the space station, and he blows himself up.

Square got so hopped up on using the technology that they neglected the plot. They should have started out by creating a storyline using their familiar formula, and then if they wanted to use computer actors to make it, then great. Or if anything, they should have majorly polished the plot they had before handing it to the animators(and if they had done that, they should have used a title other than Final Fantasy).

WITHOUT A DOUBT the BEST COMPUTER ANIMATION of ALL TIME.......2007-06-19

I OWN OVER 95 COMPUTER ANIMATED (not anime junk) DVD's . MIND's EYE (type) . I MUST SAY THIS IS THE MOST REAL LOOKING COMPUTER ANIMATED FILM I HAVE EVER SEEN . THE STORY LINE IS VERY GOOD (don'T know about the vid game -DON'T CARE-) . IN MY OPINION THIS IS PROBILY THE MOST UNDERATED COMPUTER ANIMATED FILM of ALL TIME . GET THE SPECIAL EDITION TO SEE THE MOVIE in BLAST BOARDS and PARTLY FINISHED GRAPHICS (on seprate disc). THIS MOVIE IS ALSO OK for KIDS .

Final Fantasy is a Must Own SciFi/Fantasy/CG Lovers Classic.......2007-06-16

This is a must-buy! I saw this film at the theaters in 2000/2001 and loved it! I knew I would have to own it one day and having just watched it again for the first time in almost 7 years, I have to say the CG is still impressive, the story line is still top-notch, and anything with Steve Buscemi's (sp?) voice in it still makes me happy! This DVD set is an especially excellent purchase, as it comes with many fun little collector's edition items - added bonuses indeed! So, for anyone who loves SciFi, Fantasy, video games, and/or anything with impressive CG then I say this DVD is a must-own!

Pretty Good, but doesn't follow the video games at all.......2007-06-05

This movie was pretty good on a level of graphics and original storyline. If you are a big fan of the Final Fantasy games though, do not see this movie. It doesn't follow the games at all and you will be wondering why they even call this movie Final Fantasy. It has no relevence at all to the video games and fans of them will be wondering the whole time, What the heck is this?!?! It is all new characters and none of them have ever been seen before from the video games. The storyline isn't anything like the video games at all either. It is pretty much a whole different movie that just happens to have the name Final Fantasy in it.

So, if you haven't played the Final Fantasy video games, then this movie might be pretty good. If you have played the video games before and are a fan of them, then this movie will seem really bad, because it is not at all like the video games and is not what you are looking for in a Final Fantasy movie that is supposed to be based on them. If you are looking for a good Final Fantasy movie based on the games, rent Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children.

This second volume of episodes on DVD from the original Star Trek includes the popular and sexy "Mudd's Women," which introduces the character of interstellar huckster and fugitive Harry Mudd (Roger C. Carmel, later to return in another classic episode, "I, Mudd"). The Enterprise beams aboard Harry and three beautiful and scantily clad women whom the con man is carrying as cargo. The transport damages the starship, forcing Captain Kirk (William Shatner) to take a detour to a mining world for a supply of dilithium crystals. Harry uses the women as bait to get the miners to help him flee from the authorities--but a revelation about his liberal use of an attraction-enhancement drug adds a twist to things. This clever and novel installment in the series grafted the unlikely element of a petty, colorful crook onto a science fiction show, an obvious forerunner of Deep Space Nine's inclusion of Quark among its own major characters.

Also in this volume is another outstanding episode, "The Enemy Within." Written by renowned novelist-screenwriter Richard Matheson (The Incredible Shrinking Man), the story proposes a transporter malfunction that results in Captain Kirk being divided into two versions of himself, one aggressive and brutal, the other sensitive and good. Essentially, the personality mix that makes Kirk an effective leader and balanced man is scattered like so many marbles, and the result is one captain running around mauling women and wreaking havoc while the other is frightened and indecisive. The production is very effectively done, and Shatner's performance is among his most interesting. --Tom Keogh

"Mudd's Women" (Ep.4): Conman Harry Mudd brokers the marriage of three beautiful women to a mining colony to escape Kirk. "The Enemy Within" (Ep.5): A transporter malfunction splits Kirk into good and evil entities.

Customer Reviews:

Just two so-so episodes.......2007-02-11

Although Shatner's acting performance in "The Enemy Within" was exceptional, and Harry Mudd would go on to be the most popular Star Trek guest star behind Kahn and tribbles, these are two pretty mediocre episodes in the mostly excellent first season.

"Mudd's Women" really didn't have much actual sci-fi elements in the episode. The Enterprise picks up con-man Harry Mudd, with a cargo of beautiful women that Mudd is trying to barter off to lonely space miners, for a profit. And the episode basically just addresses the theme of believing in one self, just the way one is. Which is fine, but not too much sci-fi there.

And "The Enemy Within" starts off with Kirk being split in two by a transporter malfunction, into one being gentle and good, the other being aggressive and bad. Not a bad start for sci-fi, but then the episode spends a lot of time on just the trio speculating about all humans' good and dark side to their personalities. This episode also had a plot hole that V'ger could've fit through. Because of the transporter malfunction, the Enterprise couldn't beam anybody else up to the Enterprise until it was corrected, with the landing party stuck on the surface in frigid night time temperatures, where they almost froze to death. But the episode never explains why they didn't use the shuttlecraft to get the landing party up to the ship.

Spock observes, ladies seem to like the 'evil-Kirk'.......2007-02-07

'Mudds Women' take pills making them super-attractive. Attractive enough to control the men in the episode.

'The Enemy Within', escapes when Kirk beams back to the Enterprise and two Kirks materialize, one after the other. One a good-Kirk, the other, an evil-Kirk.

Not to be confused with the episode where Janet Lester takes over Kirks mind by replacing it with her own (where was Shatners Emmy!), or the episode where Kirk is replaced by a mechanical Kirk as part of a plot where humans will be replaced by more perfect machines, or the episode where disembodies aliens, who have their minds stored in mechanical spheres, take over the minds of the crew as part of a mercy mission, or the episode where the crew transports to an alternate universe - where the federation is an 'empire' that rules by maintaining terror, and their counterparts from the evil universe, beam aboard the Enterprise (a fan favorite).

As The Enemy Within unfolds, the evil-Kirk becomes more aggressive, and the good-Kirk more indecisive. Each apparently needs the other. In the end they both go back thru the transporter and become one. Spock observing that ladies seem to like the evil-Kirk.

Early Trek Finds Its Feet.......2007-02-05

To all of you detractors, after watching Mudd's Women for the second time, I found that I liked it much more than I had previously. Sure, it's sexist. But let's delve into that - is it the show that is sexist, or the society itself? When Eve murmurs childishly, "I've never met a paragon before", we are met with an indulgent Shatner smile. And the miners themselves, with their expectations of what a woman should be -- and they are proven wrong in the end. Yes, it is disgusting to watch the crewmembers oggle such women promoting themselves as sex objects, but this issue is addressed, and I felt that in total the episode promoted women (or at those with integrity). Today, it seems sexist since the way we see it, women should really never have had to stoop to that position in the first place - for her time, Eve was positively heroic.

As for other pros, there is minimal overacting from the regular crew, especially Shatner - very nice - for the most part they just seem to oscillate between amused and frustrated in their dealings with Harry Mudd. Mudd, however, comes off overdone, which we sense is less the actor and more the crappy costume and the silly stereotypical role he was supposed to fill -- his character jives better in his second season sequel "I Mudd" (possibly because he's more a sidethought than the obstacle itself).

I admit it; not the best Trek has to offer, even for this early in the series. The next episode, the Kirk-centric "Enemy Within" is an improvement, managing to provide some character development while keeping in high drama. The message that a man needs both his good and evil side to function effectively as a human is a little cliche, but it may have been fresh back then. More important on the decisons being made on the characters -- Spock is slowly staking his claim to logical, emotionless Vulcan territory, while the doctor opts for the other end of the spectrum -- indeed, we even get to see them go at it for a brief scene; the first of many as we all know. Looking back to the ambiguity of "Where No Man Has Gone Before", it's shocking that they've fallen into their roles as quickly as they have - this episode could have been anywhere else in the first half of Season One and I wouldn't have known otherwise. It's nice to watch Spock act concerned in the background; we kind of lose this as the show goes on...

By the way, I still think that Shatner can't act. But it's good fun all the same.

Self-Confidence the Best Drug/Accepting Yourself for What You Are.......2006-03-12

Gene Roddenberry's moralising continues on Vol 2 with 2 more great episodes. In "Mudd's Women" we are introduced to the likeable villain Harry Mudd who tries to sell wives to lonely miners except that the women only keep their beauty with regular intake of pills. Why Harry doesn't get normal girls to begin with isn't explained but I suppose we'll give them poetic license and get on to the overall moral which is to not judge a book by its cover and to seek out the beauty within. On "The Enemy Within", the moral seems to be to accept that we all have good and bad parts of our personality but the secret to success and happiness is to control both impulses for good and evil to hopefully end up with a synergistic, "whole greater than the sum of its parts" situation. Not among the stronger episodes in the entire series but not among the worse either and so recommended.

Not the best Trek--but still fun.......2005-02-25

"Mudd's Women" presents the first of two appearances by the space rogue Harcourt Fenton Mudd (Roger C. Carmel). In this episode, he is pimping for a trio of artificially enhanced women who owe their beauty to a drug. Classic Trek episodes always tend to be moralistic (in fact, that was a point of pride for Gene Roddenberry), but when Kirk (William Shatner) actually delivers a sermon, as he does at the end of this episode, you know they've gone too far. A slow episode, but occasionally fun.

In "The Enemy Within," a transporter accident splits Kirk into his evil half and good half. The premise is weak, because it gives up any pretense of scientific plausibility and drops the show squarely into the middle of magic fantasy land. The only thing missing is a yellow brick road. This episode also features some stunningly egregious overacting by Shatner. This is not as damaging as it sounds. There is something invulnerable about William Shatner as a performer; the worse he gets, the more cheesy fun it is to watch him. Writer Richard Matheson does manage to slip in some interesting stuff about the necessity of a dark side for a successful leader.

Description

Addison Terrill (C. THOMAS HOWELL), a former district attorney now in a lucrative private practice, has what seems to be the perfect life. Sharing a successful law firm with his best friend, Sam Moss (BEN BROWDER), Addison's career is on the rise and he has a luxurious home, a beautiful, sexy wife, Becky (SEAN YOUNG), and a bright young son. But life as he knows it is turned upside down when he arrives home from work late one night to find his wife brutally murdered and his son unconscious in critical condition at the hospital. Now, fingered as a suspect by the police, Addison must race to find the real killer and prove his innocence before it's too late. Out of desperation with no where else to turn, Addison must put his trust in the only other person tied to the case, ex-cop Jesus Vargas (GIANCARLO ESPOSITO). Bitter and humiliated by his removal from the police force, Vargas holds Addison personally responsible for ending his career in law enforcement, and his motivation for finding the killer may not be to Addison's advantage. In order to solve the case and find the true killer, both men must put their differences aside and their lives on the line. Their search leads them through the city's underworld and into a wicked web of deceit. As hard truths become revealed and dark secrets begin to unfold, the ring of suspects close in around Addison and he finds himself questioning the very people he trusted.

Suprising End For Me.......2007-05-29

I had No idea who the killer was until the very end. I thought this was an excellent movie.

Was this actually released theatrically?.......2005-11-28

Putting this on DVD seems like a big enough waste of money. You can tell the film is going to be chintzy on the budget when the lead actress's wig looks like a Halloween prop at your local Party City; however, the beautiful house used for the main characters was the real star here. But this film's redeeming quality is how laughably bad it is. You will find yourself rewinding scenes to laugh again as you won't believe how cheesey it looked the first time - like when the hooker gets shot - a classic death scene! The cinematography never rises above a primetime episodic on a low budget giving it a shot on video feel. The dark night scenes were overlit, and the supporting cast were the real jewels here insuring they never work again. The mention of "Dr. Pepper" numerous times was so ridiculous - did the Texas-based Dr Pepper demand to be featured throughout this Texas production or were they offered some free publicity? Either way, Dr Pepper sure tastes good with Turkey.

Entertaining.......2005-05-14

An entertaining 94 minutes of "who done it" intrigue.
Was good to see Sean Young again.
C. Thomas Howell looked a bit ragged.... is his health OK ?

Admittedly we guessed the plot and the killer at around 30 minutes into the movie and at times the plot twists made us think we might be wrong.... but we were right.

Despite figuring it out so early, it was still entertaining

A Killer Within .......2005-04-16

A Killer Within does a good job of coupling some original surprises with a character-driven plot. No easy feat for sure, and trust me, the script could have easily been turned into a lousy Lifetime Channel movie of the week without the right direction and cast.

Becky Terrill, played by Sean Young, leads the caricatured life of a stereotypical Dallas socialite. Her posh North Dallas house is ridiculous, her Mercedes is pristine and her dependency on alcohol is ravenous. The only thing that seems to bother Becky's Prada-clad existence is her 4 year-old son.

Becky's husband, Addison, played by C. Thomas Howell, is a high-powered corporate attorney with some codependency issues and a raging Dr. Pepper jones. Addison comes home from work to find Becky brutally murdered, apparently at the hands of someone targeting Addison. The lead detective fingers Addison as suspect number one and his investigation basically ends there.

But Addison, who has made some dangerous enemies during his climb to the top of the food chain, has a suspect of his own. In order to find the killer and protect his innocence, Addison reaches into his past and enlists the help of Jesus Vargas, a former cop played with enthusiasm by Giancarlo Esposito. Esposito's performance as the renegade ex-cop is the most authentic in the film. The lawman and the lawyer strike an uneasy alliance as they navigate the seedy side of Dallas in search of Becky's killer.

Director Brad Keller does a masterful job of introducing just about everyone as a suspect and the guessing continues to the very end.

A Killer Within.......2005-04-16

A Killer Within is a decent murder mystery. This indie flick isn't the next Million Dollar Baby, but it will keep you entertained for about an hour and half.

The plot is well written and there's a good ensemble cast (C. Thomas Howell, Sean Young and Giancarlo Esposito). The basic premise is that Addison (Howell) is a big-shot lawyer, who comes home one night to find that his wife Becky (Young) has been murdered and his young son is unconscious and badly injured. With the help of his business partner and an ex-cop, Addison goes on a search to find the real killer.

Ben Browder's performance as Addison's business partner is also worth mentioning. Sci-fi buffs will probably recognize Browder from Stargate SG-1 and Farscape.

If you're into murder mysteries, it's definitely worth taking a look at.

FAT SLOB EATEN BY AN ESCALATOR.......2006-09-08

This is probably the goriest and most puke used Troma movie ive seen so far besides The Toxic Avenger Part IV. One of the best scenes in Terror Firmer is when the killer Grabs the fat movie producer and eats him with the axe in the business building while he is getting sucked into the escalator! Surely the intestines and blood spilling looked like rubber balloon animals but hey, it's Troma! Im really happy I bought this film, but I did not recieve my free mini poster that claimed was inside the case. Oh well, the film is worth the false advertising. The fat naked guy running through New York and getting his head crushed by a car is a classic! Disc 2 also has the Terror Firmer video game which is tons of fun and incredibly gory. BUY it. ! Although I hear that Troma's new movie "Poultrygiest" is gonna be gorier than this?

Not Tromas best........2006-05-02

I have mixed feelings about this movie, I think it was a slight let down. The movie was filled with gross-out humor,But what can you expect from Troma. The movie is about a killer within, a Troma movie set,The killer turns out to be a sick,Demented Hermaphrodite.The film has some memorable gross-out scenes. If you are a fan of Troma by all means by this movie.

funny and stupid.......2006-03-11

best movie ever-will fufill your need for both digusting nudity as well as terrible acting.

just amazing. about as good, if not better than citizen toxie!.......2006-01-31

while terror firmer is nowhere near the excellence of the classic tromeo and juliet, it is very entertaining and gripping. also cheesy and hilarious. i recommened you dont show this film to sensitive viewers until you have built them up to this level of troma. to get someone into a troma junkie, i must say start with the first toxie and cannibal! the musical. then you can move up to tromeo and juliet and finally this monster! i really dig this new age troma crew with the likes of will keenan, ron jeremy,lemmy and the guy who plays jerry(i forget his name) and such. this is one of the three essential troma films of the new troma era. the other two being citizen toxie and tromeo and juliet.

"dont give up the fight for truly independent cinema!"

'Terror Firmer'(Troll) 2-DVD release w/many special features.......2005-04-09

As most movie fans might say after they were to walk out on the first half hour of this flick,"This is one weird-ass mother-f***in' movie!".Unless you have a rather dry or sick sense of humor,you might want to avoid 'Terror Firmer' altogether.I,myself thought it was a scream.The plot is a low-budget movie company in their attempt to make the movie 'Toxic Avenger,Part IV',when they discover the entire crew is being stalked by a sexual deviant.If you believe you've seen it all in movies,just WAIT until you see the culprit when he shows everyone how his abusive father had messed him up for life.Ugh!!After seeing this DVD,you might never want to visit a big city again.Recommended if you're bored on a weekend night.

really creepy.......2005-08-17

This is the film I used to break out from time to time and show friends back in the day because NOBODY saw it at the theatre. It always got a very good reaction because it is a very creepy film. Even today the stop-motion effects will give most folks the creeps even while they're busy knocking the older effects model. The film seemed to be a labor of love from director Phillipe Mora because there are some genuine creepy moments that still work to this day 22 years later. Ronny Cox is the sole "name " in this movie although many may recognize R.G. Armstrong, Don Gordon, or L.Q. Jones. Don't let my positive review so far sell you however, there are plenty of lousey acted, slow paced scenes that add up to nothing here except filler acting as background info for the scenes of the "change" that takes place for the lead actor. The real emphasis in the movie is the special effects which were for the day awesome, but today are a bit goofy, but genre buffs will appreciate the effort nontheless. Still a good rent or cheap purchase.

One of the films in this set really stands out: Collinsville. It has great production values for a lowbudget film, interesting charcters, is well shot in cool locations.

These four films are great for night in the dorms being creeped out . All follow a theme of a the beast within all of us with characters that aren't that different than people you know, except that they all have a dark side. Particulary notable in the DVD collection is the film Searching For Haizmann. This a creepy tale about three college kids looking for facts on the anti-christ. They find more than they bargained for.

The story is awsome and it ends in a way I would never have guessed. The thing about this film too is especially the two extremely hot female leads. In their search they interview a particularly creepy character played by the greatest actor of all time, Clint Howard. Me and my friends kept watching his scenes over and over. Tippi Hedren from the old Hitchcock films is also in this one which is cool. And that guy who played Flounder in Animal House plays a completely wacked out professor obsessed with the anti-christ.

Back to the hot chicks, they're worth the price of admission alone. Jenny Mollen who you've seen as the wearwolf in the TV show Angel, plays Grace in this film. And Grace is aptly named. We've all been wanting to see more of her since that Angel episode. And if that's not enough Colombe Jacobsen who played that goth chick in Men In Black II is in this one too playing the part of Hannah. But in this movie she's not goth at all, she's more like a hippi chick--and hot, hot, hot.

Anyway see this one first. The plot is cool and the story is really intense. I'll write more on the other films later.

John Fiore, from the Sopranos is great in this film. I also enjoyed the twists. The production looks great! The band Blue Illusion was excellent as well. This film is very entertaining

Another fun romp through CAMP BLOOD!.......2005-10-07

What can you say? Nothing's better than watching pretty girls run through the woods while being chased by a big nasty killer clown! This isn't a big budget adventure - but as long as you go in knowing that it's a fun and campy story - well... then it WILL indeed be a fun and campy movie! The gals are hot... and you just can't help but give a little cheer each time someone who deserves it gets all slashed up... Relax... enjoy it! I did...

Can you smell that? We must be "Within the Woods"..........2005-10-01

If you want to see a really scary, well produced horror movie, stay away from this one. The director must have thought ripping off other horror movies done much better was some kind of homage but it's not. The cast does the best they can, although the lead actress's greatest talents lie hidden underneath her shirt, and we're not even given the pleasure of a glimpse (nice going brainiac). The scene at the end in the control room was unintentionally hilarious, when the guy gets his hand chopped off by the killer clown and screams, you'll scream too... with laughter.

As cheesy as this movie is it does have some entertainment value if you want a laugh, when you're done watching it, the DVD makes a nice drink coaster.

Average giallo with above average gore.......2007-05-22

I don't really envy Lamberto Bava. Sure, he's a director in the movie business, which means he comes into contact with very hot chicks on a daily basis. That would definitely rank as a plus in my book. His career also means he doesn't have to put up with the daily grind like the rest of us mere mortals. Another plus, I think. A final positive? He makes horror flicks. That's fun with a capital 'F'. He gets to stage all sorts of bloody mayhem, capture it on film, and entertain weirdos the world over. I still don't envy him, though. Why? Look at his last name. Having the name "Bava" in the horror business would be the equivalent of laboring under the title "Spielberg" or "Lucas" in the United States. Lamberto Bava is the son of Mario Bava, a legendary Italian filmmaker who could lens a movie in any genre with astonishing ease. Mario made romantic comedies, westerns, science fiction, gialli, and a host of horror films. I've never seen a Mario Bava film that I disliked. All of his pictures contain that certain something that makes them a good viewing experience. Lamberto, on the other hand, has a tough time living up to his father's reputation.

"A Blade in the Dark" is a giallo, one of those infamous Italian murder mysteries larded with red herrings, an enigmatic killer, and hot babes. It was only a matter of time before Lamberto tried to cover ground previously explored by his father. This movie is the result, and it's not a winner. The story focuses on Bruno (Andrea Occhipinti), a composer currently scoring a horror film for his director friend Sandra (Anny Papa). The opening of "A Blade in the Dark" shows a bit of the film Bruno's laboring on. A scene unfolds in which three kids, one of them played by Giovanni Frezza (one of the most annoying child actors in the history of the world, by the way), dare one another to descend into a darkened basement. Down the stairs goes the kid, and seconds later a bloody ball comes bouncing out of the darkness! Huh? Oh well. It's all a set up to get us into the story of Bruno and the strangeness he's about to encounter in the seaside villa Sandra set him up in so the composer could create a masterpiece. From the sound of the music he's banging out on his keyboard, I think it's safe to say John Williams doesn't have much to worry about.

The hijinks kick into high gear when Bruno discovers a woman, Katia (Valeria Cavalli), hiding in one of the house's closets. Hmmm. That's weird. Anyway, the two engage in mindless dialogue before Katia sneaks off and leaves the house. She's brutally murdered outside by some kook sporting a utility knife and clad in female attire. Bruno, noticing Katia's sudden disappearance, goes looking form her only to discover a diary she dropped outside. A clue! Upon reading the diary, Bruno learns some intriguing bits about the villa's former occupant, a woman named Linda. It's intriguing enough that Bruno begins to delve a bit deeper into the history of the house. He finds a locked door downstairs that he can't get into, and learns that the room has something to do with Linda. While all this is going down, other women suddenly show up only to fall into the psycho's orbit. Bruno's girlfriend Julia (Lara Naszinsky) and Katia's friend Angela (Fabiola Toledo) both meet their grim end in or around the seaside villa. What's going on? It turns out that the answers lie in the very film Bruno is working on. Prepare yourself for a shocking denouement in which the movie reveals all.

I'm sort of kidding about a "shocking denouement". "A Blade in the Dark" isn't really shocking at all in terms of plot or character development. What we're dealing with here is an average, muddled giallo that doesn't live up to anything made by Mario Bava (or Dario Argento, for that matter). I had a tough time keeping track of what happened as the film progressed, and the conclusion is a real groaner in terms of logic. Another negative plaguing the film is the lousy dubbing. Really, this movie contains some of the worst dubbing in the history of cinema. It's so laughable and distracting that it takes away from the movie's impact. What rescues the movie from the garbage bin is the gory kills. We see women sliced and diced with that utility knife in ways that will make the hardcore gore fans cringe. The killer wraps one gal's head in plastic and then proceeds to slam it repeatedly against a tiled countertop until she dies. The stabbings go on and on in nauseating detail. The murders in "A Blade in the Dark" are so violent that even Europeans had problems with the film. Too, it's hard to ignore the inherent misogyny in these crimes. Those wacky Italians!

Anchor Bay, which I'm told doesn't exist anymore thanks to a buyout, brings us a great DVD version of the movie. The picture and audio quality should keep most buyers happy, as will the extras on the disc. We get a trailer for the film, liner notes from Mario Bava historian Tim Lucas, and a twenty-minute interview with Lamberto Bava and scriptwriter Dardano Sacchetti. This last feature, called "Behind the Blade," is neat to watch, as the two men reminisce about making films on a low budget and offer their opinions about the film business in general. So there you go. If you like gialli, you'll definitely want to give "A Blade in the Dark" a shot. It's not nearly as good as the movies made by Lamberto's father or those from Dario Argento, but the excessive gore and laughable dub job should keep you marginally entertained for an hour and a half. Three stars.

Entertaining Enough. 3.5.......2005-01-29

This is the only Lamberto Bava movie I've seen, and it's pretty good. It's a giallo, and massively influenced by Dario Argento's work, particularly 'Tenebre'. (On which Bava was a assistant director, I believe) And no, it's not as good as that movie, or 'Deep Red' or 'Opera', but if you like all those films I think you'll at least find this to be quite watchable, and there's a good chance that you'll rather like it.

As with all giallo or slasher films, the quality of this film is primarily derived from how interesting the murder/horror scenes are. Fortunately, the ones here are quite good. Unfortunately, all the other aspects of this film are a bit sub par, but this doesn't effect the overall enjoyment level of this film much. 'A Blade in the Dark' was originally made with Italian television in mind, which likely hurt the film in a number of ways. First of all, it doesn't appear to have been made with an English audience in mind, so the dubbing isn't up to snuff, either in terms of performance or translation.(And the dubbing/dialogue never tends to be very good in this sorta film) It is never really incoherent, I guess, but it's pretty damn inelegant most of the time, and is occasionally laughably stilted and unrealistic. That, and there are some rather weird translations, such as when one character refers to another as 'cockroach', in a manner which suggests that this is a term of endearment. The basic plot is that there is a musician living out in a large, empty house, where there are a number of murders.(Or apparent murders. They don't find the bodies until late in the film.) Part of the reason it doesn't work as a mystery is because it's trying to hard to hide the killers identity. Virtually everyone is setup as a potential suspect, but no one really stands out, and the only way to figure out the killer's identity would be to be abundantly familiar with the genre's clichés. And there isn't really much of an investigation. The characters just sorta sit around and talk about who the killer might be, or whether there really is a killer at all.

Yeah, this film is far from plausible, but I don't really buy that it is any less plausible than your average Argento film. Sure, nobody calls the police, but no charred dummies are mistaken for corpses, nor are vengeful ravens used to identify the killer(Opera), no apartments are left unwatched by the police despite the fact that the killer is known to have dropped a note off there, in person, and will almost certainly do so again (Tenebre) and the entire investigation does not depend upon sheer luck and happenstance (Deep Red). (Well, actually it arguably does, but that only makes it equally implausible) Still, the whole murder-mystery is less interesting than in those films, for the aforementioned reasons. The film also has some pacing problems, which I suspect may have been created by it's intended medium.(It would need to fit into a time slot, on TV) Thus, the latter portions of the film are a bit too talky, with characters frequently just sorta rambling on without really discovering much.

This film isn't as stylish as lots of other Italian stuff, but it's nicely crafted, particularly during the murder scenes. It lacks any elaborate camera movements or surreal sets and lighting, but it is nicely shot, and the murder scenes have got a nice rhythm to them. Sadly, the first two death scenes are definitely the most interesting ones. The first one is the best, and it's really quite brilliant. It's a very extended scene, showing both the stalking and killing, juxtaposed with shots of our musician protagonist working on his music, and the following disposal of the body, and the near discovery of it by said protagonist.(I can't come up with his name right now. Sorry.) The most effective part is when the killer is dragging the body over a staircase, with the head brutally thumping itself against the steps again and again. The next, more famed scene, is less extensive, but still quite impressive. It is one of the most brutal murders I've seen in this sort of film, and it has a fairly nice, extended buildup, but there are a few basic execution flaws. Most notably, it involves smashing someone's head against a counter, repeatedly, but the attempt is less than convincing, as the killer sometimes lifts the head all of an inch of the counter before smashing it again, and it often doesn't seem to be being done with any real force. That, and I swear the sound isn't quite in synch some of the time, so that the smashing sound doesn't come at the right moment.(I haven't watched it carefully enough to know for sure, however). Still, it's a very effective scene, with a very cold and vicious finish. The rest of the murder scenes aren't as interesting or original, but they get the job done. The film isn't terribly gory, but it is very forthright and harsh with the violence, which probably works better overall, and is fairly typical of this sort of film.

The film looks and sounds pretty decent, as you'd expect for an Anchor Bay release. Lastly, in case you didn't notice, you ought not to buy this version of the film, as there is the 'A Blade in the Dark'/'Macabre' disc which is also available. I haven't actually watched 'Macabre' yet, so I can't vouch for it's quality, but that disc only costs half as much as this one, and I'm betting that `Macabre' is worth -15 dollars, at the very least.

A Dario Argento He's Not.......2004-11-15

Lamberto Bava is lucky to have a dad like Mario. According the the bio in the DVD, his dad used to feign illness to let Lamberto direct scenes from "Shock." How nice of the more talented Bava to humor him like that! It also said that Mario asked Lamberto to help him with scripts when the story wasn't so good. After you watch "A Blade in The Dark," you'll ask yourself, "What was Mario thinking?"

This movie begins promisingly enough. Three young kids (although sadly, none of them are malevolent) enter an old creepy building late at night. One of them throws a tennis ball down a long, dark staircase. In some sort of bizarre Cool Kids Club initiation ritual, the two really tough kids tell the third wimpy kid he has to go down and get it. If he doesn't do it, he's a sissy little girl. They begin to chant, "You're a female, you're a female," over and over again until he starts down the stairs. (Thanks, boys. Some of us were born this way!) Seconds later, we hear a scream, and the tennis ball flies up and hits the wall behind the two boys, leaving a bloody stain.

After then, the opening credits begin, and the awesomeness has ended. We then learn that the prologue is actually a scene from a horror film the main character has been contracted to score. As it turns out, the scene was based on an actual event that happened to someone the director really knew. Alright! I can get behind that! That opening scene really held my interest! I wanna know what happens next! Tell me more!

Sadly, I never got to find out. The "traumatic childhood experience," that is obviously very central to the plot, is never explained. All we know is that it was based on a story told to the director by her friend, but never what the whole story actually was. What we never find out is what really went on down there, why did the little kid scream, and most importantly, why was the tennis ball bloody?

Like most giallos, this one is about a regular guy who is not a detective or a police officer, who is trying to solve a murder. Dario Argento, undoubtedly the master of the giallo, usually has his protagonist as an eye witness to a murder who sees some weird detail that he is sure is important, but the police don't take him seriously. This leads to the protagonist trying to solve the mystery himself. But this, of course, is AFTER the protagonist has already gone to the police and they didn't buy his theory. This isn't really a very hard concept to work into your script. However, this guy never even goes to the police. The director he's working for asks him the same question I'd been dying to ask the entire movie. "Why don't you call the police?" He explains that since there are no bodies, they would think he was nuts. Well, if you don't have a body, you can't make an arrest, and it's true that none of them have been found yet. But this is AFTER he's found a blade-shaped hole in his bathroom counter top with blood coming out of it. Now, I think that constitutes physical evidence of foul play, don't you? That at least warrants a police investigation. Maybe if they did a search of the area, they could find out where those bodies are?

I know that if the police had gotten involved, he would have been asked to leave the house, and there would be no movie. Call me an armchair quarterback if you want to. I'm not trying to say that if I found a bloody dent in my bathroom, I would react more rationally. But Argento was able to create characters that were believably obsessed with solving the puzzle. This guy's only motivation is his safety, and that's a problem that could be easily solved by calling the police.

Let's quickly review this movie's strength's: for one thing, it has the hot babe who played Eva in Aenigma, the Lucio Fulci film that borders on the absurd. (I say that as if it's the only one.) Not that I really care about that hot babe, or anything, I just thought you might. Also, the death scene in the bathroom was very well done. Lamberto managed to do the blade-through-the-hand thing even better than the master Argento did in "Phenomena." That's pretty impressive, because I don't think I ever recall watching any horror movie and saying to myself, "they did that better than Argento!" even if it was in "Sleepless."

Getting back to other things that really annoyed me...there is a red herring that makes no sense whatsoever. We find out that one character has been telling ridiculous lies about where she's been. The main character even goes to the trouble of finding a PHONE BOOTH to make the call to find this out. Anybody who watches giallos knows that a phone booth means serious business, and an important plot point is about to be revealed. However, as it turns out, these gigantic lies have nothing whatsoever to do with the story, and we never even find out why she told them! Now I can appreciate the red herring. And I know that if you don't have at least one, Dario Argento will kick you out of his Super Secret Giallo Society. But if you're going to have the main character enter a phone booth to discover someone else was lying to him big time, you obviously want us to think she's the killer. Then, when you pull the rug out from under us, (you really had me going with that phone booth) could you at least explain what the heck was going on there?

Lamberto Bava's finest moment was by far the supernatural horror flick, "Demons." In that movie, people enter a theatre and begin to transform into Demons for reasons that seem to exist, but don't really make much sense. But that part doesn't matter, because it's fun. Unfortunately, "A Blade In The Dark," is a giallo, and when giallos don't make sense, they just don't work.

You Are A Female! You Are A Female!.......2004-01-06

Lamberto Bava's A BLADE IN THE DARK from 1983 is one of the greatest giallos of all time regardless of the dubbing, which is rather incongruous and weird at times. This movie is a combination of the great Dario Argento's DEEP RED (my favorite giallo) and TENEBRE (Awesome ending!), where a composer is drawn into a bizarre murder mystery involving the former tenant of the villa that he's rented to compose a horror movie score. This movie had me on the edge of my seat whenever the killer was on the loose; the box cutter clicking made my skin crawl and the bathroom scene made me cringe with fear! The scene where the director of the horror movie in question gets strangled by the film of her own final reel, the one she doesn't anyone to see, left an impression on me; this was perfectly ironic and kind of humorous when you consider that the director is killed by her own movie! I also like the humorous tone of this movie (I actually read the booklet that came with the DVD, which is how I learned about the sense of humor); this must be a precursor to SCREAM in that respect.
Lamberto Bava learned a lot from his father Mario and Argento, with whom he worked with on INFERNO and TENEBRE, which is why this film is so good. I loved the music score in this one as well and I still have it stuck in my head as I write this review! In my opinion, although I knew about this movie since I read about it on Terrortrap.com (which summarized the entire film), the way the killer is revealed made me scream just like the ending in TENEBRE did! A must for giallo buffs and horror movie fans alike!

God Has Punished Me, Yet Again..........2002-09-25

Do not watch this DVD. It is soo scary and gave me nightnares. It would be real good to watch for Halloween in a dark room with your friends, if you have any after showing them this movie. It's too scary and good people are in it that act real good and scary. I ate popcorn while I watched and now I do that every night, pop popcorn and watch this movie in the dark, by myself, because all my friends are too scared to watch it over and over again, but not me. I like being scared. Especially around Halloween time and I also like owning two copies of this movie on DVD because I know I will wear the copy that I keep watching, because it's soo scary, out. So don't buy this DVD, because my copies might wear out and I'll need to buy another one and there's no telling when a scary movie like this will be real hard to find. Buy 'The Tigger Movie' because I own two copies of that one too and it's not soo scary but it's a good movie and I think that you will like it. But if you want to watch my copy of this DVD, I think that would be fine as long as you close your eyes with me during the scary parts, which come at different times of the movie. If you do find a used copy of this movie then buy it because I don't buy used copies and that would be fine. If there's anything that you want to know about this movie just ask because I know everything about it and all of the scary parts. I don't even know who could write such a scary movie, they must be real nice and smart, but scary too. Thank you for reading.

PSYCHOLOGICAL DOODOO.......2005-11-15

I saw Ripper I and don't remember a whole lot about it, so in going into RIPPER 2, I was a little leary about what to expect. If you haven't seen the first Ripper, this one will probably be confusing anyway. A different actress takes over the role of Molly and there's so much plot twisting and lack of cohesion that this movie is merely a dull waste of time. The trend of overabundant lesbian sex is once again used as padding and the murders are staged so haphazardly no terror is induced. The acting by all is really pretty bad. Let's hope we don't have a RIPPER 3, although its ambiguous ending suggests we might be burdened with it. This reviewer will not go for a third run though!
