Movie Reviews of The Mangler RebornMovie Review: Horror Reborn Summary: 4 Stars
I want to thank the filmmakers for bringing back visceral scares, the kind I've missed for so long. The first horror film I saw in a theater was Carpenter's "Halloween." I was a freshman in high school, and I sat in that theater convinced to the core that Michael Meyers would be waiting for me behind some tree on my walk home. This film, despite the obvious corners that had to be cut because of its tiny budget, brought back vivid memories of that long walk home. The greatest contributor to the film's gut-level horror is Weston Blakesley, who lets his mallet do the talking as Hadley Watson, the repairmen possessed by Stephen King's famously evil machine. Watching Hadley drag a bloodied, screaming victim up a flight of stairs hit me as hard as Leather Face mounting a thrashing teenager on a butcher's hook. I'll be honest - I didn't expect much from this movie, and I was shocked that it could deliver such nasty scares. Too many writers and directors of low-budget horror are satisfied to give us the same three Bs - the boob shot, the butt shot and the blood shot - for ninety minutes, and then call it a day. My thanks to Cunningham and Gardner for creating characters I could care about, developing a barren, creepy atmosphere and building some genuine tension.
Summary of The Mangler RebornWhen a repairman builds a machine from parts of an old haunted laundry press he becomes obsessed and possessed by it. As life slowly drains away from him he serves only one master and it's the machine. The repair man will do anything to feed the machine and keep it alive. His murderous rampage grows out of control and he slowly descends into hell to feed his blood lust.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: HORROR Rating: R UPC: 012236184195 Manufacturer No: 18419
