Diagonaldi Very well executed
Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
willywants A kid with Down syndrome watches horror movies at a drive-in from his basement window and goes crazy, escaping from his house and killing off unsuspecting people at the drive-in. Another entry in the endless line of run-of-the-mill, direct-to-video slasher flicks, and not an even remotely entertaining one at that. Badly shot (mostly on DV it looks like) and featuring bland characters and bad writing, "Drive-in" can be a very painful and slow film to watch; sitting through the film felt more like a chore. There's little in the way of gore (the films showing on the drive-in supplied most of what little we get—-interestingly, almost all of the films are from Troma no less) And the death scenes are usually lame (one involving a girl being strangled to death by dental floss being a real eye-roller). A couple of actors in the film were actually decent (gasp!), but a film can't be fueled by alright acting alone and as a result the film is a terrible bore. Oh, and the nude scene involving the chunky girl…I don't even want to talk about THAT…Completely missable unless you simply MUST see every horror movie ever made.3/10.
Dr. Gore *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* I bought this video for three bucks. The front of the video box cover had a guy with a huge knife hanging out at the Drive-In. I couldn't resist. I should have resisted but I was weak. That knife was HUGE! Who knows what that lunatic was going to do with it? Well, I'll tell you what he did with that knife. Not much."Drive-In" epitomizes the word "padding". Somehow the filmmakers got their hands on a lot of Troma footage and decided to base a movie around it. The "movie" playing at the Drive-In was gory clips from Troma flicks. If it wasn't for the nonstop Troma footage unspooling on the screen, I would have been truly disgusted at this lame movie. Instead, I'm only mildly disgusted."Drive-In" is lame. The kills are lame. The gore is lame. The acting is lame. Everything is lame. Some big hulking idiot wanders into the Drive-In and starts killing people. There's no suspense since no one is even aware that this maniac is in the Drive-In until the last twenty minutes of the movie. Somehow this giant lunatic manages to sneak up on people without even trying. He just keeps wandering around opening up car doors and killing whatever dolt happens to be sitting there.Don't waste your time with this one.
TheEtherWalk This is beyond a doubt the worst movie ever made in history. It is a slasher movie in which everyone dies except for one person, and just when you start to like a character or there is any character development at all they kill them off? You can't have character development cut right out like that. It self-destructs and the whole thing falls apart. This movie is total crap. Don't waste your time. It's not even worth a laugh.
duntrune Where does one start? Poor script? Poor acting? Poor camera work? How about the first part of the movie being shot on video, while the rest is shot on film? Supposedly dead people adjusting skirts? Ultra lo-buck special effects? Haphazard editing? Folks, low budget does NOT always equal terrible work, Romero made Night of the Living Dead on a shoestring, and it's STILL a classic, sadly, this pile of garbage makes fun of Troma flicks, as if this movie is BETTER? Nope, take the writer, director, producers, etc, lock 'em up, throw away the key, and NEVER LET THEM NEAR A SET AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!
