Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
MonsterPerfect Good idea lost in the noise
ClassyWas Excellent, smart action film.
Alistair Olson After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Smoreni Zmaj Like Lurking Fear, Bleeders is also inspired by Lovecraft's short story The Lurking Fear. Basic premise is taken from Lovecraft, but plot is completely different than both previous movie and original story. Although, this time it's pretty solid. Screenplay I liked a lot, movie not so much. I have no specific objections, it's simply that overall impression is white-livered. Decent entertainment for genre fans.5/10
Necrotard My friend and I love to rent awful, gruesome, horror films, then sit and make fun of how bad they are (while enjoying the gore). So far, this film has been the most enjoyable for us. The little gnome dudes are funny themselves… and watching them kill is hilarious… Then the characters are so lame and the concept of the gnome's origin is kind of goofy too. There is some gore and some nice images in here, but the concept, acting, and characters just make this film incredibly cheesy… I mean really, how many movies feature a doctor who looks at a corpse that was mangled in a boat's propeller and says "Hm… I'd have to say death by severe mutilation."… WE WERE IN TEARS AT THAT LINE. That was the funniest thing we'd ever heard! Now, whenever somebody gets diced up pretty bad in a film, we have to make reference to it by quoting that line.I gave this movie a 5 out of 10 because it really is awful but I found it incredibly entertaining… in a "Mystery Science Theater 3000" kind of way.(And if you're having trouble finding it, the DVD was released under the title "Hemoglobin".)
RogerBorg I get the impression that the director or editor was trying for a sub-cinema verite feel here. Surely you can't get to direct a multi-million dollar film without knowing some basic tension and shock devices; their complete absence here must - surely must - be deliberate.Whatever they were trying to do, they failed abysmally. There is a certain creepiness about the premise and denouement, but the journey is a real yawn-fest. The creatures are really just pathetic rather than a threat. Cripples armed with garden implements versus hale people with guns isn't really a fair fight, unless the victims insist on being phenomenally stupid. People literally stand around screaming as the creatures... waddle... slowly... towards them, apparently forgetting that they have a gun in their hand! As others reviewers have noted, the sex scene is a complete disjoint, and really out of place. It just highlights what a muddled mess the whole endeavour is.
ldorio-1 I just saw Bleeders for the 2nd time this weekend, and I must say that it's a great film. It's really offbeat and different, and I'm not afraid to say that I give it a 10! You have got to be able to appreciate a classic bad B-movie, and as a bonus, this one is actually quite interesting.If you're fed up with the classic Hollywood bullcrap, and you just want something to check out for sheer entertainment value, then pick up Bleeders - you won't be disappointed... And if you are, then you can join the ranks of all the "holier than thou" pseudo-critics who panned this movie.This is not a spoiler, but I will say, can you imagine being with a significant other that loves you, no matter the RIDICULOUS things that you do? Just think about that one, because it's pretty absurd that the main character's girlfriend wants to stay with him, even when it's revealed what he needs to do to survive!
