Movie Reviews of Cherry Falls & Terror TractMovie Review: 3 hours of terror! :) Summary: 5 Stars
Wow, I just got done watching this "Frightmare Double Feature" and I was very pleased..., I went against my better judgment and bought this DVD after reading some semi-positive reviews of both movies. I was very pleasantly surprised!I watched Terror Tract first, because I was sure it would be the more superfluous of the two movies (it's got John Ritter in it for God's sake). But it actually turned out to be an anthology film (like Creepshow and Tales from the Crypt) with three very entertaining short stories interwoven by a disturbing wraparound sequence featuring Ritter trying to sell houses in a community that is not all that it appears to be. Each story, including the wraparound-Ritter sequences, has a strong (sometimes familiar) story with a surprising, satisfying ending. It's a fun movie...not really a fun as in "comedy", but it's a good, fun, vengeful-dead-husband-evil-monkey-psycho-granny-killer horror. Cherry Falls was also a real treat. It's a straight horror movie that borrows from about every recent Scream-esque film out there, and then adds some surprising twists to keep it fresh. There's no annoying fake "jump" scares (well, maybe one), the killer's motives actually make sense, and the whole movie has an air of paranoia about it. It really keeps you guessing as the script is very solid and the acting is all-around excellent. Both movies are in anamorphic widescreen (with a surprisingly strong Dolby 2.0 audio track...the thunderstorm in the Terror Tract Evil-Monkey story sounds awesome) and are on the same side of the disc. There are no extras except scene selection...HIGHLY recommended!!
