Rocktober Blood

Movie is so cheesy, you could make a cheesecake from it. But that doesn't mean anything when story is boring, acting bad and technique of filming even worse. Half of the movie is so dark you can barely see what's happening. Music is kinda cool and ending scene is a real cheesy fun, but the scares are nonexistent (except 1 jumpscare which got me, but to call being surprised being scared is wrong) and nudity shown doesn't help all that much. I was happy when the movie was finally over and I don't recommend it to anyone, except to my fellow horror movie fans on a quest of watching all horror movies and some curious fans of 80-s rock music. It's not the worst thing you can watch, but it doesn't have anything more going for it than what I already mentioned. 5/10, avoid it (if you can even find it) !

Man,oh man did we (a friend and I) strike gold with this piece of cinematic treasure! A plot analysis (lol): Billy the rockstar decides making bad metal songs aren't enough so he kills off most of his friends, save his girlfriend who manages to escape (something I am glad I did not try to do from this film). She gets poor Billy executed for the crime and starts over.. as the new front woman of his terrible band! Of course, Billy boy returns from beyond the grave to kill again and laugh a bunch of times in a very ridiculous manner. Is there more to this than meets the eye? I don't remember-I was laughing to hard. This is definitely a movie you need to take a few alcoholic beverages in with a few friends before hand to fully enjoy, but make no mistake about it, enjoy it you will!!!

This film has one good thing about it, the rock band Sorcery did the sound track and appears at the end of the flick.

A true 80's slasher classic with all the trimmings. The over the top absurd kills (an iron held to the throat) with lots of nudity and even aerobics in leotards. It doesn't get any better than this. If you watch the DVD version there is a part after the movie which shows how the director and his wife rescue Greyhounds now.

The movie is filled with plot holes and not easy to follow. The acting leaves alot to the imagination as far as talent goes. The best part of the picture is the music, played, in part by the rock band "Sorcery". Released as a lp back in 1984. Now, the soundtrack is a collectors item!! It's almost impossible to find anywhere. I recently saw an ROCKTOBER BLOOD lp(not vhs) available on e-bay that went for$89!!! Great music, movie ok......

Billy "Eye" Harper is a hard rocker who killed 25 people and was later sentenced to death and executed.The only survivor of Billy's rampage is a part-time singer Lynn Starling.Two years ago Lynn wants to go with her new band Headmistress on Rocktober Blood tour.But Billy is not dead and he starts killing people around her..."Rocktober Blood" is one of the better heavy metal/slasher movies of 80's.There is a bit of tension and some lines are priceless for example ""I want your hot steaming * blood all over my face".The killings include eviscerations,a nasty impaling and a pretty good decapitation.The acting is terrible,but I must say that I enjoyed hard rocking soundtrack of "Rocktober Blood".7 out of 10.

At the movie's best scene the killer is stabbing dancing girls on stage with a sword/mic stand. He even cuts off a girl's head and throws it into the crowd! Unfortunately this action comes after a lot of dull and not scary stalking. The most unexciting and unoriginal moments include a series of phone calls with no one on the line and the obligatory digging up the killer's grave in the night to see if he lives. The rock music is great and full songs are played several times. If the viewer does not go for power metal or 80's rock videos, they may not be wild about this flick. In a creative scene, the hero is chased by an unseen menace while metal music is played backwards on the soundtrack. A great movie for metal fans with patience for mediocre horror.

Deranged rock singer Billy "Eye" Harper gets executed for killing twenty-five people. Two years later Billy returns from the dead to commit a new series of murders. Boy, does this enjoyably absurd howler completely nail the sleazy decadence and outrageous excesses of the 1980's hard rock scene: We've got hideously massive overpermed hairdos, skintight leather pants, herky jerky break dancing, sweaty aerobics, coke snorting, lots of gnarly head-banging hard rock songs blaring away on the soundtrack, and, best of all, an uproariously ridiculous climatic concert which degenerates into a crazed bloodbath. The slack (non)direction by Beverly Sebastian, gaudy cinematography, extremely variable acting, a silly story complete with a groan-inducing surprise twist, and tacky gore all further enhance this flick's considerable deliciously cheesy charm. As a yummy plus, foxy brunette Donna Scoggins takes her clothes off twice in order to bare her attractive slender body. A total schlocky hoot.
