It depends what you are into...
Being that it's Troma, you should know it's very low budget and cheesy. (Lots of over the top gore and naked boobies.)
That being said, I think they rock!

they are incredibly cheesy, infact they've got more cheese in them than a swiss cheese factory.
I managed to get through the first one, but only got through 10 minute of the second before I switched it off..... trust me they're bad.

I wouldnt consider them horror.... I would call them 'Goremedy' because the cheese takes away any scare/horror factor.

If it's not horror related then I'm not buying.

rent or try and borrow one of them to see what you think. Even if it was 'real' horror, I still wouldnt consider any of them a worthwhile purchase.

I buy shitty and good horror movies. Doesn't matter to me. All that really does is that they're horror.

nothing in it is supposed to be scary. If to you that means that it isn't horror then it's not horror

I constantly have to explain non-fans of horror what a horror movie is. They constantly insist on telling me horror movies don't scare them therefore they're not horror movies ; they're comedies. Someone check out terror.ca and tell me if this series belongs there. I want to get a screener.
