I guess I have no one to blame but myself for sitting through this tripe more than once. Thanks to Trakt, though, I won't ever make that mistake again. I kept thinking _"This seems familiar"_ but it wasn't until the dancing tarantulas came prancing out of the woodwork that I realized, _"Oh cripes, I **have** sat through this one before..."_ As a huge fan (back in the day, mind you...it was back in the day!) of Lucio Fulci's _The Gates of Hell_ I wanted to see this one when I found his name attached to it on a horror movie blog. The overall presentation was par for the course for those eye-popping, brain-squishing, shuffling, blind zombie flicks from the 70's and 80's: cheesy horrible music throughout, innumerable macro-lens close-ups of staring eyes, shuffling, moaning, gasping, groaning, tossing the head about in despair while remaining frozen in place (as opposed to the real-life scenario of screaming and running away). The plot had holes in it that were big enough to drive a truck through...and in all my born days, with my true-to-life arachnaphobia, I never realized that if you were lying on the ground paralyzed from a bad fall, that chirping, squealing tarantulas would slowly eat your lips off your face, burrow into your eyeballs, and chew out your tongue while you laid there unable to move or even make a sound. Overall, the eyeroll effect was a perfect ten; the gore was a ten; the stupidity of the characters was a ten; the sudden appearance (from somewhere, still not sure where?) of a whole new round of bullets for his empty revolver rated a ten; the inability to escape from zombies whose speed would make a sloth look like the Flash was most definitely a ten, and Dickie, the German Shepherd: definitely a TEN. (I loved the scene where it prominently showed - in slow motion - Dickie running out of the house, his balls just a-flapping; wouldn't catch a scene like that in today's animal scenes! LOL) So, I suppose if you add all the incredibly, unbelievably horrid parts of this movie together, it rates ... well, at least CLOSE TO a perfect "10" on the "AWFUL" meter. Now that I've sat through it (again) and made notes, hopefully, I'll never make that mistake again.

FINAL NOTE: If you're really, really...I mean like **REALLY** into gore movies, then by all means, you'll probably enjoy this one...as long as an actual story doesn't matter. Because there is no story...in fact, most of this doesn't make any sense, but at least it's gory. :face_vomiting:
