LouHomey From my favorite movies..
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
bfan83 Hard Rock Nightmare is a rather obscure entry in the "rock 'n' roll" slasher sub-genre, and not a very good one at that. The plot concerns a rock band who decide to head to the lead singer's family cabin to practice and they are soon picked off by a werewolf, or someone dressed as a werewolf. This boring "horror" film was brought to us by Dominick Brascia and Steven Baio, the creators behind the wonderfully, but fun inept "Evil Laugh". Mr. Brascia's second directorial feature was rather disappointing. It's slow-paced and uneventful and the deaths were unconvincing. It also lacked the zany charm that made "Evil Laugh" so wonderful. The ending was lifted right from an old Scooby Doo episode. I won't give away the ending. However, it is worth seeking out only because of it's obscurity.
zmoviefan A rock band and three groupies go to a cabin in the middle of the woods to practice before they go on tour. One of them has nightmares about a werewolf and wouldn't you know it? A werewolf shows up to kill his friends.The last 30 minutes or so are the best as all the mayhem occurs. I liked the fact that once they realize they are being stalked, they at least try to hide and/or get away.There is a little blood, a little nudity, a little bad acting, a little corny dialog and of course those 80's hairstyles and clothes. My favorite scene is with Tom Shell in the woods being stalked.
