chribren "Hellroller" is direct-to-video Z-grade horror film from 1992, directed by Gary J. Levinson.Basic plot: Eugene (Ron Litman), a homeless angry maniac who's sitting on a wheelchair, gets to know that his mother is actually an aunt, and that his real mom gave birth to Eugene as a result of getting raped by Siamese twins. After the aunt's disappearance, Eugene sets out to take revenge on the society and the "beautiful people", mostly hot chicks who look like prostitutes.Compared to the standard horror serial killers most of us people know about today (Jason Voorhees, Freddy Krueger etc.), I pretty liked the idea about a serial killer on a wheelchair. This is not something you get to see often. The plot itself of the film was also a good idea.But then there's the amateurish content; How the scenes of very bloody killings were made were pretty poorly done, as especially the first killings were made off-screen. We mostly see the aftermath of the said killings. Speaking about 'kill', my favorite scene in this movie has to be when Eugene impales two prostitutes at once. I really liked the ending too.Also, was it really necessary to have an at least six minutes of Michelle Bauer training and bathing, and later an another six minutes of porn star Hyapatia Lee dancing, stripping and taking a shower before anything happens? I mean, they look somewhat sexy, I have to admit that. But honestly I felt as if these two scenes were made just to stretch out the film's running time.It should also be noted that director Gary J. Levinson didn't only directed the film, he also wrote, produced and even acted in this film. In the film he played as Donald who's first seen taking Eugene's wheelchair down from a trash container.This film is not available in Norway. But if you like the original idea about a serial killer on wheelchair, no matter how bad the scenes of violence were made, I would recommend you to find and track down this film. Because of the said idea and the way the violence was made in this film in general, I'll have to give this film a rating 6/10.
bluty1 "Hellroller" is a totally unique horror movie, about a serial killer in a wheelchair. That's why I like this movie so much. It's not just another ripoff of every horror movie made before. It is different. The killings are way out there, like ironing to death!!! I never saw that before. The special effects are among the best I've ever seen. Wait til you see how magnificent Michelle Bauer dies, after she gets naked, that is! Speaking of naked, porn star Hyapatia Lee strips, before she meets her doom. In addition to a unique storyline, and amazing effects, this picture has one of the greatest horror casts ever, including Mary Woronov, Elizabeth Kaitan, Ruth Collins, and Johnny Legend. I had to hunt this one down, but it's worth tracking down.
yraggx I stumbled on "Hellroller" in the cult section of a video store. The box was amazing, so I figured I'd check it out. I'd heard of this movie, and the plot, a serial killer in a wheelchair, is definitely unique. I wasn't dissapointed. It starts out fast, and is non-stop, one beautiful chick after another getting slaughtered by the wheelchair killer, who does them in in lots of weird ways, like spearing two at once, ironing to death, disembowelment, mouth-stabbing and more. In between the killings, Michelle Bauer and porno-star Hyapatia Lee get naked. Unlike many big-budget movies, "Hellroller" has no filler at all--it's non-stop from beginning to end. It's incredibly original, a very sick horror classic, with amazing makeup effects. It's one of a handful of my favorite horror films that I have to watch over and over again. This one is worth tracking down, especially with the amazing cast that includes Mary Woronov, Elizabeth Kaitan, Ruth Collins, and Johnny Legend.
Kastore ***SLIGHT SPOILERS*** For the better part of two years now, I have been hunting for the worst horror movie ever made. First, I thought it was "The Crawlers" (aka "Troll 3"). Then, I though it was "Horror House on Highway Five", which left "The Crawlers" in the dust in terms of sheer badness. But now I have seen the light, and I recognize the fact that the Absolute Worst Horror Movie Ever Made is "Hellroller".First of all, I'm stumped as to what this thing was actually shot on. It's not film, but it doesn't look like video either. All of the visual effects anybody can do with a standard camcorder and home computer film editor. And it's chock-full of bad blaxploitation-style editing, where it's painfully obvious that a scene was shot at two or more completely different times, and the actors are not in the same place from one shot to the next.The movie itself is about a wheelchair-bound homeless maniac with a bad twitch who wants to get revenge on the 'beautiful people'. I'm all but convinced that most of the cast was played by actual bums and prostitutes, which explains why some of the acting seems actually to be good because the people are just playing themselves. The murder scenes are nothing but laughable, the best being when the 'Hellroller' rams a blunt stick straight through two prostitutes' chests. The opening scene involves a flashback to the Hellroller's childhood when his crackwhore mother gets raped and killed by Siamese twin rednecks (you can probably guess how the twins' 'effect' was done). On top of that, the rest of the movie is supposed to be 20 or so years after that, but the Siamese rednecks are still alive and are servants to another character called 'The King of Bums'. The same actor who plays 'The King of Bums' also plays a mad doctor whom the Hellroller hires to invent a potion that turns ordinary people into bums (I swear I'm not making this up). Hellroller then somehow poisons LA's entire bottled water supply (not tap water, only bottled water because that is what the rich people drink), upon which everyone - even the newsanchors at KRAP 69 - amazingly transform into bums. On top of all this, the movie also includes two extended mindless scenes of a woman (Michelle Bauer) doing aerobics and another woman dancing alone in her room, apparently added in order to push the movie's length past the one hour mark.But that's it. Right here and right now, I announce that my search for the worst horror movie ever made is over, because it is "Hellroller". There still might be a worse movie than this one somewhere out there, but I don't think I have the will to find it, or even to watch it. I'm afraid that if I ever see a movie worse than "Hellroller", it would cause me to lose all the rest of my faith in humanity.
