i enjoyed some of their early films, especially castle freak.

allmykids 06-19-2004 10:03 AM

I also really liked the puppet master movies. Has anybody seen HOUSE OF PAIN or HORRIFIC??? Just wondered if they where any good.

newb 06-19-2004 10:03 AM

I pretty much stay away from Full Moon Videos. Too many crappy ones IMO. The only one that I saw and liked were Subspecies and Castle Freak. I did see The Dead Hate the Living and wasn't that impressed.

Really?? I thought it was pretty good for a B movie. I really liked it when they drug that guy acrossed the floor by his intestines!! :D

Forgot about that one. Tim Thomerson , one of the underated B movie actors.

newb 06-19-2004 10:12 AM

As I look at that list I see a lot of clunkers in there that I started to watch and couldn't get through.

they did more than their share of bad movies, but they did do stuart gordon's pit & the pendulum.

Steve_Hutchison 06-19-2004 10:33 AM

you might wanna take a look at tempevideo.com. They do movies for Full Moon now. But it's far from being what it used to be.

Fastle Freak is my fav, even though it isn't newer

jay o2 waster 06-19-2004 10:50 AM

I meant Castle Freak, and i didn't just edit my firs post because of 2 reasons.

1. Fastle Freak looks funny, and then you can all call me a retard
2. Im a post whore

but mostly 2

At my local video store there's always a bin full of really stupid videos for $2.59. (Actually, this is where I bought American Psycho so they aren't all bad). Anyway, once I bought one called Teen Knight which was about this kid that went to a theme park about the knights of the round table and ended up getting sent back in time.

Anyway to make a long story short, this is my favorite Full Moon video because its the only one I own.

then let me recommend castle freak, pit & the pendulum, trancers and even puppet master

bloodrayne 06-20-2004 06:04 AM

Netherworld, Vampire Journals, Castle Freak, Prison of the Dead (sucked), The Dead Hate the Living (sucked more)...

Even the SEQUELS to their good ones (more than 10 years ago), were way better than any of the shit they have put out since:mad: ...It just really pisses me off because we used to look forward to these, we couldn't wait until the next one came out...Kinda feels like we had something taken from us...It sucks

-->oscam5<-- 06-20-2004 11:39 AM

DEMONIC TOYS! I've got an issue of the comicbook adaptation. I'd like to see that movie.
Netherworld was pretty good.

bwind22 06-20-2004 12:41 PM

I thought The Dead Hate the Living was retarded at best. I'd give it maybe a C-. (And that's pushing it.)

Puppet Master (the first couple at least) are pretty good.

Demonic Toys? Ha! That movie was terrible even for the time it came it out! I accidentally made the mistake of buying it for $2.00. After watching it once, I really regretted that I bought it.

That link Zwoti posted says 'Puppet Master vs. Demonic Toys' but there's no year. Was it never released? (I didn't have time to check the link because I got to go to work.)

Seeyas after work. (Go vote on the Tournament of the Living Dead if you haven't already.)

jay o2 waster 06-20-2004 12:57 PM

I kinda liked dead hate the living

We waited...and waited...and waited some more...I think that it was just a tease :mad:

I don't know anyone who would take a picture of my hairy ass.

Sam The Egg 08-19-2004 02:11 PM

but you said it was mooning, and it's not. Anybody can show their fully-clothed butt. I do it all the time.

What are some of your favorite Full Moon releases? I grew up watching the first few Puppetmaster Films. I always loved them. Also Dollman vs. Demonic toys was cool. I've been trying to find Trancers 1-6 but dont see them anywhere.

Anyone else like the extremely cheesy Full Moon films?

God, I was a dumbass...


I've seen/own two Full Moon "films" : Jigsaw and Totem. Jigsaw is hands down the worst movie Ive ever seen, and Totem wasnt a whole lot better. Id kind of like to see some of their older stuff like Puppet Master or Subspecies, but Im a tad worried after the piles of crap Ive seen...

Totem is in the running for the worst film i've ever seen

The_Return 04-03-2006 03:38 PM

Have you seen Jigsaw? As awful as Totem was, Jigsaw was alot worse IMO.

gorefreak 04-03-2006 07:49 PM

I've never really cared for Full Moon movies. The only one I saw that was worth anything was the first installment of "Puppet Master". Crap like "The Dead Hate The Living" "The Horrible Dr. Bones", "Shreiker", "Rag Doll", "Prison Of The Dead", "Witchouse" pretty much suck. But I do have to give them credit. None of those stinkers can rival that utter garbage that York Entertainment delivers. That and New Concorde. Artisan usually makes a lot of crap, too.... but on occasion, they have a handful that are actually okay.

*sigh*...You guys will never get to know them the way that I know them...Yes, the ones that you have mentioned ARE terrible...BUT...There was a time (before the ones you mentioned were made) that Full Moon was actually GOOD....Puppetmaster series, Dollman, Subspecies series, etcetera...If you want to check out some that weren't so terrible...Try the ones that were made around that time period...And do NOT watch Killjoy or Creeps...

Some of them like Hideous and Head Of The Family are a bit like Troma films...Cheesy (stupid) on purpose...But, kinda fun

filmmaker2 04-04-2006 01:58 AM

I could tell ya some, ahem, stories about working on some of them things.

Especially the ones with Traci Lords in 'em, huh?

urgeok 04-04-2006 03:58 AM

i'd say i know Full Moon about as intimately as anyone here that hasnt worked on them ... and even at their best .. they're pretty weak films. a profesional company that never lost the look and feel of amateur film. Never felt they had to.
I know a lot of people want to like them .. several grew up on them as i did (well, at least through the 80's) but not one of their films was what i would consider to be a good or strong film.

its a who's who of non-actors ... Tim Thomerson is the best they had..
(i know Helen Hunt .. and one or two others have shown up in small parts... they hardly saved the films)

the one consistant is that the music ALWAYS sucked.
They also suffered from unorigionality - when they werent ripping off better films they were ripping off themselves.

This is a company that only survived because of home video.
people will rent anything. they know it and have been taking advantage of that for 20 years.

an whats worse than full moon ?
their shitty branch of kids films Moonbeam.


for the record .. i was even a member of the Fullmoon mailing list at one time ..

sort of like an ex smoker .. i simply cant deal with that shit at all now

This is quite true

Abominus 04-04-2006 02:17 PM

What about Shrieker, everyone loves Shrieker...right? Right? I have to admit I liked Demonic Toys in its own special way as well as the first few Puppet Masters.

Yeah, I've seen some that were okay at the very best, but some were so bad that I was kicking myself in the ass for renting em. Dollman is alright, but it's just a little too cheesy for me. And most vampire films I'm just not really into for some odd reason.

LMAO! :D That's a good one. :)
As for crap like New Concorde and York Entertainment, instead of screwing off and pumping out video after video after video, why not take some of that money, save up a little, get a decent budget and make a movie that's actually good?
