Unmasked: Part 25

Set in London...A horribly disfigured, Jason-esque serial killer (named Jackson) scarred (literally and figuratively) by a traumatized childhood develops a romantic relationship with an attractive, blind would be victim that causes him to reconsider his life of murder and aspire for something deeper. One of the best genre-benders that balances the incredibly difficult task of being highly effective as a hardcore gory slasher, an offbeat dark comedy, and a tragic love story. As good as satire gets using its meta style to explore both the horror genre and the idea of inescapable fate in a way that's as thought provoking as it is amusing. 👍🏻

Its an ok film, but must only be viewed by lovers of the horror genre. Deaths couldve been better. The british of the film kind of gets annoyin, but its ok. It's also slow paced, not enough slashings and i dont find it all that satiricle. Very similar to the film the Toxic Avenger in certain ways.

I rented this movie a while ago and I really liked it. To my surprise I saw a copy for sale and bought yesterday. Just watched it and well, I was super disappointed. It was totally cut missing most of the gore, male/female frontal nudity and violence. I was so mad. +Stay away from the box that says rated R+ Anyway, the movie is funny and you gotta love the clothes these people wear. The accents somethings get to you, but other than that it is a lot of fun to watch. This is sort of a Friday the 13th comedy. The killer even wears a hockey mask!

Jason dating a blind girl while doubt if he should still be mass killing. It's totally dry British comedy but it's super funny and actually takes its jokes premise and thinks it through. Extreme gore and some genuinely funny stuff BUT I can see this not being for everyone. It's not a spoof or slapstick, it's dark comedy satire. But holy moly, it's great if you're into what it's selling. Like SUPER great.

From reviews and comments I have read about this film I see that not many people rate it. I however beg to differ. This a fantastic film that puts a new light on the normally one dimensional stalk and slash killer. Get your mates round, buy some beer and prepare yourself for something fresh. The gore is spectacular and Jackson even shows his face. Think Braindead or Bad Taste or even the Troma movies. They are in no way meant to be taken seriously but to this day still rank up there as some of the finest horror movies ever made. I recommend this highly, although watch it with your tongue firmly in your cheek.

wow, out of all the movies with cool names, this one takes the cake, and eats it to. not only does this have one of the best movie names ever, its one of the best slashers too! the film is about Jackson, a slasher who is following in his fathers footsteps by stalking and killing people, he even has his own movie made about him! after killing off another batch of drunk people, he meets Shelly, a beautiful blind woman who can see (or not see) past his disfigured face. the hook up but when Jackson sees he cannot stop killing he is torn between his love life with Shelly and killing. the film has some very good effects for its budget and if you a fan of romance this movie has it share of touching moments, Jackson is played by Gregory cox, who does a great job in the role, and Fiona Evans is really good as Shelly. give this a watch if your a fan of horror, romance or comedy, because this has it all and does a fine job with it! my score: 10 out of 10

This movie is a masterpiece - I can't believe it's not at LEAST a cult classic. It laughs at Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street, all those "5 Teens in a house w/ a madman" movies, and that's just for starters. If you like this kind of humor (the European caustic, sarcasm kind, as seen in Cemetery Man, to name another great movie) you will absolutely LOVE this movie. Beautifully bad acting (intentionally so), some of the wittiest dialog I've ever seen, GREAT characters... from the basic concept of this film, all the way to the final implementation, this film is BRILLIANT! Check it out! Recommend it to all your friends! It's great, and NO ONE has ever heard of it...

This is an entertaining movie. I didn't "get it" til the end, though. Maybe I was just tired. It deals with how serial killers from slasher movies can't even stop killing or ever die no matter what and how boring that kind of life must be. And his name is Jackson, like Jason. Very clever. But I thought it was worth watching and there are some really funny parts. The person who mentioned it was like Toxic Avenger was very right. I'm surprised Troma hasn't picked this up. I didn't quite understand the whole father figure dude. What did he have to do with the movie and why was he a bum? I liked the blind woman, she was pretty cool. I never thought about how blind people don't have to turn on lights... hmmmm

Well "many years ago" we used to rent cheap movies every Tuesday as they were about 10 Dkr (2 us dollars) each. We saw a lot of bad movies and some brilliant ones. One of them was Unmasked. Or "Hand of death" as it was called here. Took me ages to find it under the real title. It is so bad that it is kind of fun. When he ends up with that blind girl and is pretty upset with her "sexual preferences".. but has no problem with killing people.. had us in stitches. This "movie" is perfect for killing some time with a few friends and some beer..
