Boobirt Stylish but barely mediocre overall
Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
RyothChatty ridiculous rating
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Sandcooler "Satan's Black Wedding" doesn't quite have that irresistible "what the hell am I watching?"-factor that Nick Millard's much more famous effort "Criminally Insane" had but hell, if Millard can't put a smile on my face anymore you can honestly pull the plug on me. Just check out his unique editing style, the guy can't splice in a shot realistically to save his life but that's why we love him. Who cares if two actors talking to "each other" don't even appear to be in the same ZIP code, it's all just part of the charm. Especially if one of those actors is the otherwise completely unknown Ray Myles, who gives a genuinely excellent performance as some sort of half-vampire, half-satanist (have your cake and eat it too). Lead Greg Braddock is somewhat less impressive, but his amazing underacting is a spectacle in its own right. He walks into a room covered with blood with a look on his face like he just found out the supermarket is all out of his favorite shampoo. My sister died a gruesome death, I am...mildly irritated? Nick Millard is a huge cinephile though, and occasionally this almost shows here. Some shots in this movie are actually quite stylish, there's some "Nosferatu" influence in there but it's tough to be classy if your vampires have plastic fangs. But still, I was sorta into this from time to time. The cinematography looks good, the music is repetitive but creepy nonetheless, this really is quite above Millard's standards. It's not quite as entertaining as some of his other work, but it's almost what you call accessible. If only it had an actual ending instead of just stopping at a random moment, that would have helped it even more.
Michael_Elliott Satan's Black Wedding (1975) ** (out of 4) Mildly entertaining film has a brother investigating his sister's suicide. He eventually tracks down the killers to a church, which is being used by vampires for Satanic rituals. This is a very cheaply made film running just over an hour and while there's nothing too original going on here it does remain interesting throughout. If you don't expect The Exorcist or Rosemary's Baby then you should get a few minor grins out of this film. There's some nice, if cheaply done, gore scenes to keep things moving. Outside of that we get some really hammy performances, which lead to a couple laughs.
CMRKeyboadist "Satan's Black Wedding" is in no way a good movie. But, It isn't all that bad of a no budget film. Sure, there are many grade B through Z horror films that are good and bad, but this one is actually entertaining in a strange sort of way. Don't Expect "The Omen" or "Rosemary's Baby" with this one, but check it out if you can find it. The storyline isn't anything to original as it starts with a woman slitting her wrists and bleeding to death. Go ahead a few days and we are at her funeral with her brother and few others. Her brother, whom is a Hollywood actor, decides to check out the place in which she did herself in. When he gets there he discovers that the police scene hasn't been changed and that there is blood all over the place. The police detective doesn't believe this to be a suicide thus starting the brothers search for what actually happened, leading him into a dark world of vampires with silly looking teeth.First I should say that the special effects are definitely grade Z. No gore but an extreme amount of blood. The vampire teeth are just hilarious as they look like something that you could buy from Wal-Mart. The movie did have some nice atmosphere with a halfway decent soundtrack minus a few moments where the pitch got way to high and it hurt my ears. The acting was also silly going from mediocre to just plain bad. Especially during a love scene that is about as boring as watching the grass grow. Last, but not least, check out the very end of the movie at the "The End" screen and listen to the music fade off horribly. It was just hilarious.I got to recommend this to anyone that loves 70's low budget cinema. Definitely worth the time. 7/10
EyeAskance *minor spoilers*A man travels to California to unravel the mystery surrounding his sister's death. He learns that she had been writing a novel about Satanism, and spent much of her time at an old church outside of town. Soon, he begins seeing her in the company of a creepy-looking priest(and with a decidedly bigger and sharper set of chompers than he'd remembered), and eventually learns a horrifying truth...that he and his sister have been chosen by Satan to be wed in very unholy matrimony, and to become the proud vampire parents of the Antichrist.SATAN'S BLACK WEDDING is an under-the-radar obscurity still largely unnoted by the votary of horror fans...an unfortunate thing, because for all its technical shortcomings(production values are nearly nonexistent), this gritty grassroots flick actually delivers in a strange way. It's thick with eerie emanation, and serves up some surprisingly savage vampire attacks. The affrightment is beneficially italicized by the film's gloomy score(of mostly spare, crunching piano), and a cast of total nobodies perform acceptably for such a proletarian production.A strange little appurtenance from the muster of 70s drive-in horror, SATAN'S BLACK WEDDING is a film many will disregard as tossable schlock. That being stated, it may just as well prove a rewarding excavation for those drawn to remote film oddities.5/10
