Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

ElWormo I hate to give this such a low mark, because there were at least half a dozen times in the first half hour when I thought The Editor was about to blossom into a note-perfect giallo homage. A few brief scenes mimicked exactly the kind of bad dubbing/dialogue/acting/lighting/fashion etc of the original 70s Italian giallo horrors it's clearly inspired by. Frustratingly however these were just teases, and the film seemed more interested in being some kind of hip underground indie-flick slasher that didn't remind me much of anything giallo based, and it started to *seriously* drag. The lead character's virtually comatose performance didn't help much, and the plot soon got impossible to follow. After 45 mins I didn't really know or care what I was watching any more.Overall The Editor is nowhere near as bad as the absurdly boring Berberian Sound Studio (the closest modern-day comparison I can think of), but I wish they'd concentrated more on paying tribute to the classic giallo clichés instead of becoming a directionless and rather average slasher.

Peter Mckain Another great from astron-6, this time depicting the Giallo genre. It has references all over the place particularly to Bava, Argento and Fulci even Videodrome and from beyond also the mandatory Fathersday references. The plot is well written the basis being it's about an editor going insane. It has gore, it has style, it has amazing camera work, it has 10 times the budget of Fathersday, it has great makeup, it has hammy acting and deliberately bad dubbing and Steve Kochanski returns to do some animating. Along with the original crew, we are joined by Udo Kier, known for his role in the notorious video nasties Flesh from Frankenstein and Mark of the Devil, we also have Lawrence R. Harvey from Human Centipede 2 which makes for a fun movie. I still prefer Fathersday which is more a take on exploitation films but this is a great counter piece but more "family friendly" with amazing re-watch ability even if you don't watch Giallo or didn't like their previous movies give it a shot they have really stepped up their game and it is great fun to watch.

trashgang If you never have seen those old school Italian horrors called Giallo then you will never understand this flick. The way the sound was created (overdubbed?), the score, the editing, the lighting it all referred to the seventies galore of the Italian genre.The story itself is what it should make funny, sometimes it was sometimes it didn't work at all. But overall this flick delivers on gore. The effects are top-notch. But again, it's the story that tears it a bit down. You can refer to those classics but don't exaggerate. After half an hour you have seen it all on that part. So if you aren't into Giallo's then this isn't going to be your thing, for the geeks they will search to all those references made towards the classics, I did, and get lost of the story somehow and that isn't good news. But it contains what makes a good Giallo, the glove, the POV from the knife, the eye stabbing and of course a lot of gratuitous nudity.But the story guys....Gore 1,5/5 Nudity 2,5/5 Effects 4/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0,5/5

dcarsonhagy "The Editor" is an homage to Italian Gaillo films (think Argento and Fulci). It is a tale about a former film editor that, due to a horrible accident, has lost four fingers on one of his hands, thus putting him in dire straits so to speak. Gruesome murders start happening to all involved in his latest movie, and he becomes the prime suspect.I would like to acknowledge everyone involved with this movie. They did not stray one iota from the crazy, simply-unable-to-follow (sometimes) script. The movie was poorly dubbed, as was usually the case back in the day, the plot all over the place, the "look" of the characters was on the money, the acting as "bad" as the majority of those 70s Italian films could produce, full nudity of BOTH sexes, and tons and tons of gore. I laughed out loud on more than one occasion because the actors took this so over the top, they all seemed to just be enjoying themselves. I was also quite astonished to find this film was made in Canada!"The Editor" was unrated but contains graphic violence, full nudity of both sexes, adult situations, and language. If you want to have some fun, check this one out. Recommended.
