You can say NEW YORK RIPPER is bad, boring, stupid, crap, worthless, mean spirited, vile, etc. Whatever you can say about NEW YORK RIPPER though, you can't say it's not sleazy. It's over-the-top sleazy and misogynistic. It never shies away from it. Personally speaking, it's sleaz...( read more)
I have a complex opinion when it comes to Lucio Fulci. Many times, I find his work to be wonderfully grotesque and inventive (The Beyond, Zombie, Gates of Hell, etc) but, most of the rest of the time, I find it boring, flat, lifeless and just ugly, like this film. New York Ripp...( read more)
An average crime story. As in previews Fulci's films the gore is excessive and very realistic. Well acted and directed film.
This one is just as seedy as they come: a sleazy, dirty, grimy slasher film. The New York presented here is a den of sexual degradation. Most of the women presented are extremely sexual and turned on by most of the men presented, who are misogynistic and violent. The entire film,...( read more)

Inolvidable Thriller-policiaco Sexy-Giallo, es totalmente alucinante y más que brutal. El Asesino que permanece misterioso todo el film hasta el final imita su voz como pato, y su look, lo que se alcanza a ver fue lo que más me fascino y claro la bestialidad y sangre mostrada en ...( read more)
This one was pretty fucking gory and graphic. To my surprise, it was pretty good as well. I have previously hated Fulci's films that were considered his so called 'classics'. Some of these films include: "The Beyond" and "Zombi 2" and I really hated Zombi 2 because there was noth...( read more)

Dr. Barry Jones, Coroner: He used a blade. Stuck it up her joy trail, and slit her wide open. He could have done a slightly better job if he had more time. But overall, it was a good, efficient butchery.
