Plot: Machines aren't made to rise up against humans, but in this sci-fi thriller, one does. But why? Police detective John Hunton (Ted Levine) is on the case, as he begins to unravel the strange mystery of...( read more read more... ) a folding machine that seems to yearn not for clothing but for flesh. What's behind this lust for blood, and just who is responsible for turning it into a mangling creature? The answer may lie with the gadget's owner, Bill Gartley (Robert Englund).

    I'll give it one WHOLE star because of Robert Englunds great performance... otherwise the movie is something pulled out from a trash-can. I think the worst part is at the climax of the film when the mangler come alive with some quite ugly effects and turns into some kind of monster-dog... chasing the main characters around...

    Thanks to this movie, I know how steampresses really can be. Now I won't allow one within 50 yards of me. They thirst for blood, you know.

    Once again, Robert Englund sure can act like a creepy man! (Or, at least I hope it's acting. Haha.)

    Low-brow and low on budget, this is the mess that results when an attempt is made to stretch a feature film out of a short story. Honestly, does a story about a haunted piece of laundry equipment sound like it could plausibly be stretched into something watchable for 90 minutes? (And forgive the usually superb Ted Levine, please. We all make mistakes.) Just don't make the mistake of watching this movie.

    This movie was so bad that it mad me laugh.... it's so stupid, it's original... at least the ridiculous nature of it keeps you watching.. just to see what stupidness will happen next. I like it.
