Question Is Dee Sniders' "Srange Land" worth checking out?

Any of You guys seen "Strange Land"?
I haven't seen it and was wondering if it was any good.:)

Anything Dee Snider or Twisted Sister related is worth checking out. Really though, I saw the last 1/3 of this movie, didn't seem horrible... or great.

I'm not a metal person at all, so I think it's a lot more of a statement that I liked Strangeland a lot, and found it touched on some cool stuff and had a number of very interesting scenes. The acting is a bit uneven at times, and it's not a brilliant script, but it's a good horror movie that actually has a point.

It's worth watching. Certainly not anything to write home about, but it's far from bad.

It is really pretty interesting. Overall, I don't think it is all that great (it feels really disjointed) , but it defintely has its moments. Worth checking out.

I've wondered this too...I'm kind of afraid to check it out, considering everyone I know who HAS seen it says its really disgusting ;) I don't know, curiosity will probably get the better of me sooner or later though.

There's more bondage than gore, and it's more of a disturbing premise than anything. I wouldn't call it "disgusting". Plus, Robert Englund's in it, and if irony's your bag, his perfomance is pretty enjoyable.

No I wouldn't call it disgusting really, no more disgusting than many other horror films I am sure you have seen. I don't think it ever goes too far. But the subject matter itself would be distasteful to many people. You can say that about much of the horror genre though...lol....
