Joe Estevez, Robert Z'Dar, and Linnea Quigley star in the film "Rockville Slayer." In a send-up to horror films of past generations and packed with a well-known cult/horror film cast, this movie tells the story of the murder of two high school couples in a small town. Their deaths are just the beginning in a series of creepy, seemingly random, killings. The two detectives assigned to the case discover shocking truths about themselves as they uncover horrific facts about past murders they hope will lead them to the true killer.

A Cut Above
One of the better horror movies that you will see. There is a clear storyline, scenes that will curdle your blood. The director, Mr. Selz, makes ingenious usage of an unused Illinois prison to add realism to the movie. I don't want to give out details-this is a must see for any horror fan. I look forward to more from this director. His passion for the horror genre shows in every scene and in each and every detail. In each scene you find yourself expecting something sinister to happen and it does. Great Great Flick

Pretty Damn Good for an Indie!
Wow! That is all I can say about this one...wow! I am usually not an indie horror fan but I was bribed into seeing this one and to my surprise, it was actually quite good. It has the gore, suspense, story, everything! I don't think you will be dissapointed by this one!

Badly Written Film.
I am giving this movie 2 stars because Linnea Quigley is in it. I usually look at a film if she is present. I agree with another reviewer, the script is all over the place. It makes little sense. It could have been far better maybe with a re -write. The music and direction didn't bother me, but the direction was slow because of the poor slow moving script. No director could have made a quality production with what they gave them. I can only recommend it because it is a penny, plus the postage. If the price went to a dollar, I wouldn't buy it.

dahhh
I would give this movie a 0 if it were my choice.A big fat 0. The reviews before me must be family or have some kind of connection! Bad bad bad the words would come out and you would see their mouths move latter.It was so stupid that I can't believe I got suckered again. Don't waste the time and don't get ripped off like I did...

YOU SLAY ME
I love this type of slasher flick: no name-brand actors, no big budget, good acting and an interesting story that is more than T & A being sliced and diced. One has to place more emphasis on the acting, when there are no elaborite scenes and special effects. I counted about three separate stories within the stroy that all seemed to blend with the murder of the young kids in the beginning of the movie. The people in this movie looked normal: NO STUNNING BEAUTIES WITH EXTRA LARGE BRESTS, NO SEXIEST MAN OF THE YEAR CANDIDATES FOR PEOPLE MAGAZINE, just plain everyday looking people.The story is one of revenge and a lunatic erasing the past. I really hope there are not kids out there as stupid as the four in the beginning. It was kind of not credible that in the midst of having sex with two beautiful girls, that teen boys would be radioing each other for status reports while bragging about there performance in the last football game. Other than that, the movie was well made, directed and told the story it wanted to tell. The killer with the big face is probably typecast in these types of rolls and continues to do an excellent job. Had the deputy and the detective gotten romantically involved, at the end, this would have made for a better ending. Either he could have stayed or she could have went with him, had the director made thier relationship to blossom more during the movie.All in all a good movie. I have paid more fore worse. This one was pretty good.

freaky!!
i normally try to stay away from scary movies but i didnt think this movie would be that bad. maybe its because i havent seen a horror flick in awhile, but i got SO freaked out after i saw it. this is one of those movies that you kind of think about for the next few days..which is also why im finding myself writing this now. there were multiple story lines that kept me hooked throughout the whole movie. right now, i cant decide if it was a good or bad thing that i watched it, but i would recommend it to anyone who actually likes watching scary movies.

Worth a look
this dvd really caught me suprise, when i first popped it in the dvd player i wasnt expected a movie like this. Usually movies with the word "slasher" give you just that, but instead this movie entices you in a garden full questions, and you'll be scratching your head through most of it (in a good way). I guess what im trying to say is this movie definately is reserved and paces itself extremely well, so you arent bored before the opening credits finish.

Nur ein netter Zeitvertreib!
Diesen Film kann man eigentlich nur mit dem Mittelmaß bewerten. Der Filmausdruck ist nicht so ganz geglückt, teilweise ziemlich schlecht. In der Mitte des Films zieht es sich ein wenig hin. Eine große Schlachtung und viel Blutvergießen gibt es hier nicht. Positiv ist die teilweise verwirrende Handlung bzw. Verknüpfung mit dem entsprechenden Lebensverlauf der einzelnen Figuren. Das Ende ist allerdings nicht so passend.

schauderhaft
...aber leider nicht so wie es sein sollte...so grauenhafte Dialoge habe ich noch nie gesehen bzw. gehört!!! Die Idee wäre durchaus brauchbar gewesen, aber soooo schlecht umgesetzt! Kann ich absolut nicht empfehlen!!

Mittelmaß
Sonderlich viel mehr als in der Überschrift beschrieben kann man zu The Rockville Slayer nicht sagen. Mittelmaß. Haut mich einfach nicht vom Hocker. Liegt zwar schön in der Sammlung, aber ein Verlangen den Film noch einmal anzusehen besteht keines Falls. Jeder Entscheidet für sich. Meine Kaufempfehlung ist Kaufpreisabhängig so tendiert meine Rezession eher auf die 2 als auf die 4 Sterne.
