The Supernaturals Audience Reviews

Mjeteconer Just perfect...
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
lost-in-limbo From the film-maker of "He Knows You're Alone" (1980) "and "Distortions" (1987); Director Armand Mastroianni's generic survival zombie feature "The Supernaturals" has a good concept (army recruits on a training mission in the woods of the Deep South encounter dead confederate soldiers), which isn't entirely realised. In the end it's a passable low-budget, b-grade presentation that's a little too sloppy and uneventful, but is genuinely moody and atmospheric in its backwoods setting. Mastroianni's use of lighting, shadow work and a fog machine, installs some eerie imagery and a few nasty jolts in the back-end. However it really does take its time, before its final payoff --- the characters that you spend a lot of time with aren't particularly an interesting bunch (with some abysmal dialogues too). The scratchy plot doesn't explain all that much about what's going on; it's rather unusual and vague, but this does come off rather daft and cheesy in its on going build-ups. Although it does gradually get better as it goes along. The performances are decent enough (Nichelle Nichols, a pinning Maxwell Caulfield and Talia Balsam) and look out for a cameo by one of the Bee Gees; Maurice Gibb as a Union soldier. At times lousy, ponderous but tautly constructed with some striking visuals and commendable make-up FX when on show.
insomniac_rod I didn't like this movie although the premise is really good. These post-war zombie movies are very popular and this one is very decent. If done correctly, this movie would have the status of a respectable zombie movie. The cinematography is really good and plays a key part in the most important scenes, for example, the ending.The f/x are really are cheesy but work for the movie's purpose. Still I can't recommend this movie for it's visuals... in fact, it's a boring movie with a lot of wasted potential.Watch it only if you get it for free. I catched it on late cable many years ago and I can't say that I regret about it, but I wouldn't watch it again!Try "Stryker's War" for a more entertaining movie in the likes of this one.
Joseph P. Ulibas Supernaturals (1986) is a terrible film. There is nothing about this film that is entertaining or worth watching. This film is so bad that if your t.v. is stuck on one channel and this movie comes on I have one word of advice for you. READ!!! Get a religious tract from your next door neighbor because it'll be far more entertaining than this garbage. Why did they even bother making this trash. It's a bad movie. Not even bad movie lovers would want to waste their time on this rubbish. A group of brain dead soldiers go out playing "army men" on some sacred battleground and learn the hard way that "The south shall rise again!" What happens next? Who cares unless you have some big brass ones and want to find out for yourself. This video has a bad case of tape rot. If you play it in your V.C.R. your tape heads will have to be replaced. Please avoid this movie like the plague. It ain't even worth it. Bad movie. -F
gridoon I've read some pretty extreme (both positive and negative) reviews for this movie, but it's really a very middle-of-the-road affair. It's directed competently enough to keep you from feeling that you totally wasted your time with it, but it's also so derivative that it can even be called a ripoff (especially of Herschell Gordon Lewis' "Two Thousand Maniacs"; it has practically the same plot). The opening sequence is the best. (**)
