MCT:August 13, 2008Fans of the Tales from the Crypt series and The Twilight Zone should appreciate this early-Eighties anthology of horror tales. "Terror in Topanga" is the tale of a woman terrorized by a maniac when she just has to make a trip to the store for some cigarettes. "The Bishop of Battle" is notable for a very young Emilio Estevez as a teen whose obsession with video games gets the better of him. There's a definite nostalgia factor as he hustles other kids for money on the Paleozoic-era arcade games (listening to punk rock like Black Flag and Fear on an early-model Walkman the whole time). Perhaps the strongest segment involves B-movie stalwart Lance Henriksen as a priest who gives up the clergy and leaves his parish. While traveling across the desert, the hapless padre is pursued by a mysterious black Chevrolet pickup that systematically demolishes his car (shades of Spielberg's Duel). "Night of the Rat," rounding out the quartet, is just that; the story of a family who has a problem with a really big rat. While this little collection of tales tends to telegraph its punchlines well in advance, it still offers up a satisfying chill or two by way of its pacing and suspense, and with a bit more gore than the usual made-for-cable fare.

MCT:November 1, 2007Pretty much a hot chick quits smoking, Emilio Estevez gets abducted by a video game, Lance Hendrixson kills satans truck with holy water and a family gets terrorized by the demon rodent. A lot like outer limits. Pretty fun.

MCT:February 20, 2007Nightmares is a great 1983 film with 4 great tales of horror. This is another underrated film of the 1980s. Great actors like Emilio Estevez, Lance Henriksen, Richard Masur, and Verinica Cartwright star in this classic.

I haven't seen this but I did see the film Nightmare In A Damaged Brain, which was also called Nightmare or maybe Nightmares. The axe scene at the end is good, and the cheap filming quality makes it better than it would be if it was filmed well. But nothing ever happens! This "killer" goes around doing barely anything. In the end, he gets about 3 people. OMG WHAT A BRUTAL MURDERER! HOW COULD HE!
The whole film feels like a fantastic opening building up to the meat of an awesome film. But all we get is a neat ending. It's like an hour of preparation for a dumb kid decapitating some prostitute.
The beginning was good though, when the killer was screaming. Actually I think my version is cut but that's no excuse for anything!
