A Masterpiece!
it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Well it has been a while since I gave a movie a 1 star rating, but "A Night To Dismember" certainly deserves it. With its horrible editing, script, directing, acting, and even dubbing, hell this movie is horrible at everything.The plot= from what I made out is that we get a young woman named Vicki played by Samantha Fox (The porn star, not the 80's page 3 model and singer) released from a institution after murdering a couple people. But then surprise surprise people start turning up dead.I've looked up some info on this movie and found out that some of the footage is actually missing which is an excuse for the choppy editing Not only do we get some of the same scenes used-over and when the people are talking we don't even get see they're faces only close up's of the back of their heads and feet which makes this movie incoherent, and to make things worse we have a detective talking all the way through it, explaining about stuff that's not even happened, I mean that just makes this movie hard to follow. Another thing as well are the effects are just laughable hot dog sausages used as fingers, I mean come on why was this movie even released, it's not even so bad it's good, this movie is just plain awful and unwatchable.All in all "A Night To Dismember" is definitely a movie you should avoid, and probably the worst slasher movie of all time.
A Night To Dismember is probably one of the worst slasher flicks in existence. I've seen loads, but this one really takes the crown. Perhaps it was the editing problems that made it so unwatchable, but as far as I'm concerned it would have been awful even without these. There is no passion whatsoever, from the director or the actors, which ultimately leads to a dull film. Most low-budget slasher flicks are entertaining in some way or another because the director was a fan of horror films. Not so in this case. The only remotely "decent" scene is when the girl gets stabbed to death in her dreams, and she moans erotically as if she's enjoying it. I didn't keep watching for much longer than this because the film was frying my brain. All self-respecting horror fans should avoid this as it's not good on any level. This and another awful film called Blood Shack are at the top of my list of worst horror films.
Doris Wishman's "A Night to Dismember" is an ultra-cheap and sleazy slasher flick that simply has to be seen to believed.Wishman was an innovative low budget filmmaker.Her directing,editing and marketing of her films was all self-taught and almost all of her films were self-produced."A Night to Dismember" is her only full fledged horror film.It is also a big mess.The editing is beyond awful,the use of same location in several scenes is painfully obvious,the acting is amateurish and the story is illogical and confusing.Still the film is never boring and there are some fairly nasty scenes of gory carnage including ripped out hearts and chopped off fingers.Basically "A Night to Dismember" is about psychotic woman who gets out of an insane asylum and promptly starts butchering people around her.Give this low budget trash a look.4 out of 10.
A NIGHT TO DISMEMBER may not be one of them, but jesus, I honestly can't think of another film so disjointed, so visually unattractive, so inane and illogical beyond belief as this train wreck on film. So, because of that I strongly suggest anyone who seeks out the macabre, twisted, odd and unusual to do whatever it takes to see this movie. Thinking back, I'm almost sure it has to do with a woman released from an insane asylum and a whole lot of elevator music and narration. A detective narrates the entire film (!), telling us things that have absolutely no relation to what we are actually seeing. He stumbles and stutters his lines, coming across like an 8 year old with dyslexia. It's actually very funny. Occasionally, the actors in the film do get to speak (albeit they are HORRIBLY dubbed.) Much of the time when they are speaking, we aren't shown the actors' faces, rather their feet, a couch or a house plant! Oh yes, like any Doris Wishman film we get plenty of shots of people's feet. She must've had a foot fetish, like 99% of America I suppose. Ok, I'm trying to give you the plot of this car accident but it is physically impossible. Woman gets out of loony bin, her brother and sister try and drive her back there (for what reason, I have NO idea), a few gory murders take place (in the HG Lewis gory way) and before you know it, this 70 min. mess is over and you wonder to yourself JUST WHAT IN THE HELL YOU WATCHED. And just in case the movie itself isn't surreal or bizarre enough, Wishman throws in a couple of dream sequences to REALLY throw you off. In one dream, a woman is slashed and knifed to death about 100 times, slashing and knifing, over and over and over.. She moans like she's having an orgasm. Speaking of orgasm, A NIGHT TO DISMEMBER probably has a budget much lower than your average porn. Technically speaking, THIS IS UNDOUBTEDLY the worst motion picture made. Point blank. But, I found enough enjoyment to watch it multiple times. It's funnier than most comedies, and makes not a lick of sense that it BEGS to be watched. A true spectacle.
