Thirst For Human Blood
David Cronenberg is becoming on of my all time favorite horror directors. First Shivers and now Rabid. Whats next oh yea The Brood, Scanners, Videodrome, The Dead Zone, The Fly and Dead Ringers. Its a horrorfying disturing film.

The plot: Surgery leaves a Montreal motorcyclist with a bloodsucking appendage in her armpit. Soon she has an insatiable thirst for human blood.

Marilyn Chambers does a excellent job in this film.

Cronenberg stated that he wanted to cast Sissy Spacek in the film lead, but the studio vetoed his choice because of her accent. Spacek's film Carrie was released during this film's production and proved to be a massive hit (and a movie poster for Carrie appears in Rabid when the main character walks by a movie theater).

Cronenberg stated that Chambers put in a lot of hard work on the film and that he was impressed with her. Cronenberg further states he had not seen Chambers' most well-known film, Behind the Green Door, prior to casting her.

Its a disurbing film, but a excellent film.

Great film if not groundbreaking!
I had high hopes for this film to blow me away like The Matrix did when I first saw that at the cinema. It doesn't reach that level, but it's still a cool film with slick visuals.

Just a really cool movie
An awesome jam packed film full of cool one liners and expertly directed by Edgar wright. The music fits really well with the film and every scene is a joy to behold, a real film of it's generation. I feel like this won't become an instant classic however it's definitely one to watch

A pretty good film based on a Stephen King novel. It may be a bit slow for some, but overall it is an enjoyable film about a guy who reminisces about his best summer as a young boy. A good character story which in places has similarities with Stand by me and is quite a heartwarming film.

This has to be my favorite king kong movie. If you watched the new Godzilla film you have to watch this film being linked by Monarch (Monarch is a secret scientific organization that first appeared in the 2014 Legendary Pictures Godzilla film).


 FX are spot on and the acting was great. Also keep watching it past the ending credits.

This film set in Scotland had me laughing all the way through it. It is so funny as they do battle. The girl in this film reminds me somewhat of the girl in the Hunger Games films as she never gives up the fight for survival. . Another film all the family can watch over and over again.

Why such low ratings?
I have seen such low ratings for this film and I don't understand why, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I was curious and became invested in the situation. I feel like this is a very underrated film. I wouldn't say the acting was outstanding, but it worked with the atmosphere of the film.
