Rating:  Summary: NOT ON THE COUCH! Review: "That's what the plastic's for, a**hole!"I love this movie so much, namely for the comedic antics of Stephen Geoffreys. Who can forget him riding his scooter and then falling off of it? Who could not love when it rains fishes from the sky! "If you value your life, I suggest you leave me alone."
Rating:  Summary: Excellent! Well, the DVD itself isn't so excellent Review: One of the best "fun" horror movies of the 80's. Perfect atmosphere, great acting, nostalgic for those of us in our 30's. I think most people writing the reviews before me summed up the movie nicely. But I'm here to talk about the DVD itself, since you might buy it and think it's going to be top quality. We all expect top quality when we buy DVDs, so we're always disappointed when we buy a great movie like this and find that it's presented in FULL SCREEN. Also, no features. It's a cheap production, and the movie isn't as sharp and clear as should be. But it's not bad, it's serviceable. I don't think it's worth the price they're asking, but it's a hell of a lot better than the VHS copy I have.
Rating:  Summary: 976-EVIL, Great 80's horror fun Review: I just picked up a copy of this movie and I must say I was not disappointed. I think it was hilarious and it really did strike me hard as an 80's film, but it seemed to make fun of that too. I really must give Robert Englund a big shout out for not having anyone in the nude, not even the basic full frontal. He still got scenes, where other movies would have gone for nudity, across effectively and I know I greatly appreciate it. Ok, so you did see a little bit of the top of the girl, but over all no excessive t and a, it was done in a tasteful way. I also love hearing Robert as the preacher on the television program that you hear in the background. I was really blown away near the end by Robert Picardo(from Star Trek Voyager), he did an amazing job as he always does. Overall a fun movie, but don't expect to be terrified, just expect some fun and some surprises and to have some fun at 80's horror's expense. keep the faith, dEx

Rating:  Summary: Stephen is GREAT! Review: Stephen is the ONLY person who made this film Great! too bad they couldn't have made these into a "real" franchise series, with a Weak sequel that just stunk...the franchise mentality was destroyed! too bad, "Hoax" made a good villain!

Rating:  Summary: 976-EVIL = Wonderful B-movie fare! Review: 976-EVIL is a fine B-movie though I did find some of the aspects of Satanism & Satanic ritual to be biased, inaccurate and geared simply for the movie viewing audience. There's lots of thrills, odd twists and turns and gore to excite and delight any horror or B-movie fanatic!
Rating:  Summary: Not bad 80's style horror film Review: This isn't a great film but mildly interesting. The best thing about it is the reporter from the religion magazine investigating the goings on. Also a highlight is the amusing cousin Spike. The film goes on a bit too long though and might be dull for discerning horror fans. I felt rather grossed out by this one.
Rating:  Summary: Be careful what number you dial Review: This movie's great, it's full of great ideas and cheesy acting, (a classic b-movie)! With the whole dialing 976-evil thing, it brings a scary image back to the horror audience much like the way A Nightmare on Elm St. had done; go to sleep, get slashed by the boogey man with the razor fingers, now in this movie you dial the number, you also get slashed/killed one way or another and the way the victims are killed are pretty well thought out, they're not mindless plots anymore. Anyway, if you want to see a good movie, (this one), either rent it from you local video store, or wait for it to possibly become available from Amazon.com but until then, I've just gotta' tell you to check this sucker out.
