Movie Reviews of Bad Dreams
Movie Review: An underrated gem, finally on DVD!
Summary: 5 Stars
I remember seeing Bad Dreams the moment it hit cable. I have always been captivated by psychological thrillers. I guess that goes with the territory being a psychology major in college. Anyway, this excellent movie is yet another sad reminder of how awful movies have gotten since the 1980's, especially the horror genre.
I'm glad Anchor Bay got a hold of this one. As with all of Anchor Bay's releases, the transfer is excellent. The extras are nothing to write home about, but it was still nice for them to include them here. There are three very short featurettes that don't cover much of anything. The theatrical trailer could have been better, but hey, it's just a trailer.
The commentary by the director was very interesting and informative. Definitely worth a listen.
I was going to get this DVD the day it came out, but I could not find it ANYWHERE! None of the stores are carrying it. But of course the stores will carry ten thousand copies of some crappy Hollywood hit that was recently made. Whatever. So, as usual Amazon.com came to the rescue, and with a very decent price to boot. I am thrilled to now have this in my massive 80's DVD collection.
If you've never seen this, give it a go. If you have this on video? Toss the video and get the DVD.
Summary of Bad Dreams
From The Director Of THE CRAFT, The Screenwriter Of DIE HARD, & The Producer Of THE TERMINATOR In the mid-70s, the members of the love cult Unity Fields sought ?the ultimate joining? by dousing themselves with gasoline and committing mass suicide. A young girl blown clear of the fiery explosion was the only survivor. Thirteen years later, Cynthia (Jennifer Rubin of A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 3) awakens from a coma inside a psychiatric hospital with only buried memories of that horrific day. But now, her fellow patients are each being driven to their own violent suicides. Has the sect?s hideously burned leader (Richard Lynch) returned to claim his final child, or is something even more depraved lurking within her BAD DREAMS? Bruce Abbott (RE-ANIMATOR), Harris Yulin (SCARFACE), E.G. Daily (THE DEVIL?S REJECTS) and Dean Cameron (SUMMER SCHOOL) co-star in this intense horror shocker directed by Andrew Fleming (THE CRAFT, DICK), co-written by Steven de Souza (DIE HARD, 48 HRS) and produced by Gale Anne Hurd (ARMAGEDDON, T2).Similar DVD Movies
