Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

George Manolis Well, this is a very underrated film! I am so glad I stumbled across it. I just watched it and loved it! From beginning to end it did a great job at conveying a vintage authenticity. This is a rare bona fide homage. A great example is the kids that bring in the ghetto blaster to the shop. I felt like I watching a genuine 70s movie for a minute. My mind was telling me, wait, the quality is very modern and yet, it feels and looks so vintage (I rarely know anything about a movie I watch, apart from the genre - I prefer it that way). anyway, from then on, I was hooked! The attention to detail was excellent. They definitely knew what they were doing. The cast was very well chosen with a great main ensemble. On top of all that, great cinematography, effects (yikes!), editing, direction and score makes this really stand out for me. Definitely as good as It Follows. Believe me, if you consider yourself a true horror fan, you will love this film. I was a teenager in the 80s (I turned 12yo in 1984) and I know a thing or two about movies from that era. I hope there's a sequel! And please give us more homages!!

Seth_Rogue_One With a movie named Discopath which is a humorous mix of the words Disco and Psychopath, cause Discomusic really turns the lead into a full-blooded psychopath. You would expect at least some kind of humor in the movie, but no, you would be wrong.Completely humor-free with the exceptions of a little humor towards the end but by then it's a little too late.Overall pretty amateurish filmmaking with not much positive to say about it.Well okay some of the songs on the soundtrack is pretty good, and was surprised they managed to get "Boogeyman" and "I Was Made For Loving You" in the movie, but that's the only surprise this movie will give you. And it doesn't help that 50% of the movie focuses on some highly uninteresting cops; one with a bad blonde wig investigating the dead bodies the Discopath leaves behind.

dschmeding Now that was a disappointment. The whole plot of this movie is rather ridiculous. From the opening you know this is a low budget production because the acting and dialog are really bad. its often hard to know if this movie is meant serious or funny. I expected the latter because a psycho killer and 70ies disco victims sound like a fun ride. As soon as they used flashbacks to explain the childhood trauma of the guy I was out because that just must be the dumbest thing i have ever seen. The cops remind me of the Beastie Boys "Sabotage" Music Video... fake haircuts, mustaches and acting all over the place. After all this is a really trashy tribute to old horror movies, kind of a funny homage that fails to deliver the fun which just leaves some gory kills. And for todays standard these just don't keep the movie afloat. Editing is often atrocious and really... there is just too little disco in this movie. When I hear a totally misplaced Wilhelm's scream at the end of the movie I know this was supposed to be funny but either i did not get it or the movie makers failed to deliver. Either way... don't waste your time.

Coventry It's truly a joy and relief to know that somewhere in this world (in Canada, apparently) some people are still making refreshing and creative new horror movies! "Discopathe" is a highly original, tongue-in-cheek and clumsy - although I'm sure that's intentional – low budgeted slasher flick that put a giant smile on my face from start to finish. Writer/director Renaud Gauthier (you can also spot him in a delicious cameo appearance as the protagonist's father) thought up a plot that is quite insane and simplistic but the setting, atmosphere and particularly the grotesque make-up effects form a downright terrific homage to the rancid and nasty exploitation horror flicks from the late 70's and early 80's. Duane Lewis is a handsome twenty-something New Yorker, but he has one major problem. The sound of disco music causes him to go out of his mind and turns him into a maniacal killer. Unfortunately for him, disco is something nearly impossible to avoid in the year 1976, especially when sexy Rollerblades-girls practically force him to go out clubbing. After having committed a gruesome murder, Duane flees to Montréal and inconspicuously hides himself as a caretaker in a catholic all-girl boarding school. But even here in this supposedly secure environment, Duane is again confronted with lewd disco-loving girls and his homicidal tendencies rapidly come back to the surface… bigger and nastier than ever! The violence as well as the killer's hateful facial expressions of "Discopathe" will instantly remind genre connoisseurs of all those gloriously controversial misogynic slashers from several decades ago ("Maniac", "Don't go in the House", "New York Ripper"…) but the subject matter here is light-headed and much easier to digest. I realize there might be something seriously wrong with me, but I thought it was brilliantly amusing and nostalgic to witness a crazed killer hack up and mutilate the corpse of a young girl with broken 7 inch records! Renaud Gauthier also included several obligatory but marvelously clichéd sub plots, like lesbian experimenting and perverted priests within the boarding school's walls, obsessive coppers with porno movie mustaches and the ludicrous childhood trauma. And then last but not least, of course, there is the sensational and aptly selected soundtrack. The great, exhilarating music makes the film's relatively short running time fly by even faster and several tunes are guaranteed to remain stuck in your head. "Discopathe" is a more than welcome must-see slasher for real horror freaks.
