Ensofter Overrated and overhyped
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
Leofwine_draca EVILS OF THE NIGHT is an openly trashy B-movie flick from 1985. It's notable for featuring a bunch of ageing Hollywood figures (in some cases in their last performances), an untalented young cast of jocks and bimbos, and a plot which seems to have been concocted of bits and pieces of this and that. The first half an hour consists of one interminable sex and nude scene after another, with a little cheesy death thrown into the mix; copying the Friday the 13th franchise, it seems. Then there are a handful of bizarro medical experiment scenes in which poor old John Carradine shows off his arthritic hands and Julie Newmar shows off her incredibly long legs. Most of the later plot involves a couple of murderous garage mechanics, played by a couple more old timers, Aldo Ray and Neville Brand. Expect big hair, random laser effects, endless nudity, and some cheesy gore scenes.
Michael_Elliott Evils of the Night (1985) ** (out of 4) Now here's a strange little oddity. A group of aliens come to Earth where they hire a couple masked men to go out and bring teenagers back to their lair. Once there, the aliens drain them of blood so that they can live.EVILS OF THE NIGHT is a pretty bad movie but at the same time it has such a fascinating cast that you can't help but be slightly entertained by the madness as long as you're fans of the actors. You've got TV legends Tina Louise and Julie Newmar playing the female aliens in need of blood. You've got John Carradine playing the person that they follow. Then you've got Neville Brand and Aldo Ray playing a couple no-good characters. Five famous and well-known stars surrounded by some young talent with many of them having adult titles to their credit.Mardi Rustam produced some well-known films ranging from Al Adamson junk to Tobe Hooper's second film. It's clear from this movie that he wasn't meant to be a director but what's really strange about this film is the fact that it looks like a decade too late. If you've seen Jerry Warren's FRANKENSTEIN ISLAND then you know that film seems to be about thirty-years too late and that the director didn't progress with the times. The same can be said here because this is just such an old-fashioned film that you can't help but wonder who it was aimed at.Of course, the director was at least smart enough to throw some blood to the viewers and there's quite a bit of nudity early on. There are also some pretty silly sex scenes where the women are totally naked and being nailed by men who are still wearing their pants. I'm not sure why but I've always found this to be quite funny. The only saving grace to this picture is the fact that it have five well-known faces.
vampi1960 evils in the night is a bad movie but not poor,but it does have its moments.its kind of a soft core porno slash sci fi film,it does however waste the talents of great actors;John Carradine,Julie Newmar,Aldo Rey,Neville brand and Tina Louise(strike that Tina Louise is'nt a great actor)aliens kidnap sex starved teenagers that look like they wandered off the Friday the 13th lot.but john carridine is really wasted in this sleazy film as an alien.look for 80's adult star amber Lynn displaying her charms.there are a lot of goofs one is the spaceship,its 2 different spacecraft,one that looks like the shuttle from battlestar galactica. the other looks like a flying saucer.i know it was a low budget but thats just too obvious.Aldo Rey and Neville brand are buddies running a gas station auto repair shop,just don't take your Toyota there.if you want to waste about 90 minutes on a bad film this is it.don't expect close encounters of the third kind.think plan 9 from outer space with soft core porn.also in the movie is Fred Olen Rey's tough girl actress dawn wildsmith as one of the aliens.i give it 2 out of 10.just a little above being poor.
blackie-5 This is one of the cheapest, most offensive, all-around worst horror movies ever made. Truly an insult to even the most undemanding video renter. Tina Louise, Julie Newmar, Aldo Ray, and John Carradine apparently all needed a little cash. Although they have all been in other trashy, bad movies, this has to be at least close to the absolute rock bottom for all of them. The only interesting thing about this movie is watching people who once had careers "perform" in something truly awful.
