GamerTab That was an excellent one.

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Michael_Elliott The Heisters (1964)*** (out of 4)This ten-minute short comes from Tobe Hooper who made this nearly a decade before THE Texas CHAIN SAW MASSACRE. The plot is rather thin but I guess the only thing you need to know is that it has the feel of a Three Stooges film and the look of one of those Roger Corman Poe movies.The story is pretty lite but there are three men doing a wide range of experiments. That's pretty much all there is as there's nothing really coherent here because it's just a slapstick comedy with some pretty amusing moments including one sequence involving a cockroach that continues to grow. Another highlight deals with a gingerbread man being eaten and then the guy having to pick bones out of his mouth.I was really impressed with Hooper's comic style here and it makes you wonder what he might have done had the horror film not became the massive success that it did. Visually the film is quite impressive and we're also given some pretty good performances from the cast.

bazmitch23 This film is very much in style with The Three Stooges, Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton. It's very cartoony and full of slapstick.I loved the scene where the guy was eating the gingerbread man and he was taking the actual bones of the gingerbread man out of his mouth, that was really clever. The pie fight dual and the giant pie was also very creative. The moment where one of the thieves smacks the other one in the face with the knight's hand and we cut to the man's feet as we see his teeth and his jawbone fall to the floor.This is all very impressive and creative and it's hard to believe the man who made one of the most controversial horror films ever made directed this.
