Movie Reviews of Freaks

Movie Review: I love this movie!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I finally bought this movie! Everytime it would air on TCM my 15 yr old daughter and I watched. It's not a scary movie, rather fascinating to see actual freaks of nature, not hollywood actors dressed in prosthetics and makeup. Prince Randian rocks. No arms or legs yet he rolls his own cigarettes, strikes a match, lights up and smokes. WOW! Have you ever seen a real pinhead! Not the freak with pins sticking out of his face, but a real pinhead. This movie has 3.

Movie Review: Freaks
Summary: 5 Stars

Reviled and in some places banned on release, Tod Browning's horror classic is like nothing else you'll ever see-bizarre, bold, and altogether brilliant. A standard soap opera premise is elevated by the conceit of "normal" people as villains, "freaks" as heroes. Browning gets the most out of his unusual cast, mostly non-actors, and creates an eerie, chill-inducing atmosphere throughout. Don't miss that knockout climax.

Movie Review: Good classic
Summary: 5 Stars

I know some people dislike this movie, citing bad acting and what have you. But keep in mind that in the 1930's, 'talkie' films were still pretty new, and they did not have editing tools like we do today. I wish there could have been more to the movie's story (doubtless if it were remade today, it would) but for its time, it was a good movie and still is in its own way.

Movie Review: Freaks (Warner Home Video)
Summary: 5 Stars

I like this movie. It starts out just a little slow but it just keeps getting better.
I read where some people complained about the poor video quality. If you want a very good copy, buy the Warner Home Video copy and NOT the copy put out by Triad Productions Corp.
Warner Brothers always put out top quality copies. (No, I do not work for Warner Brothers)

Movie Review: As a film, all things considered...
Summary: 5 Stars

It's fantastic. There were no "special" effects and makeup back when this was filmed. These are real people, and alas, considered freaks, too. The storyline is a classic "evil woman/good kind man", and a predictable ending, but it is one of my all time favorites, (and I pretty much don't like movies,) just because of the cast and the era it was filmed in.
