Rating:  - a good dream for horror fans
Well anyone out there who loves a great old horror film need not look further than bad dreams. A well scripted horror film made by great production company and a great director in Andrew flemming.
This is a sleeper of a horror missed by many but a must have in any horror collection along side great horrors such as Near dark, Vamp, the Third Exorcist film, the burning and Rosemarys killer that many horror fans may have missed.
If you liked Elm st 3 you will love this title
Rating:  - Actually quite interesting...
For a movie that doesn't have any 'major' stars in it, Bad Dreams is actually quite well acted & made. The storyline is a little more original than most 1980s horror movies; it involves a psychopathic cult leader (played by Richard Lynch) who ordered a suicide by fire. Only one woman - Cynthia (Jennifer Rubin) survives, and 13 years after the suicides she wakes up from a coma. Unfortunately, the ghost of Harris - the cult leader - begins to appear, and several of her fellow patients die terrible ... Read More
Rating:  - Bad Dreams - good viewing!
I'm a horror buff from way, way back. And every so often I feel the need to revisit some of the movies from my scare ladden youth, and the film Bad Dreams didn't disappoint. Okay, because its the early eighties and my memory isn't what it was, I wasn't expecting much. But you know Bad Dreams stacks up pretty well against the over-the-top gore films of today. It has a plot, it has blood, it has your damsel in distress, and it has a very cute doctor. So yeah, I'm gonna stick my neck out on this one ... Read More
Rating: - Not a Nightmare on Elm Street Rip Off.
I bought this movie after seeing the trailer on another Anchor Bay release, Cemetery Man. I knew I would have to buy it, just because it looked like it was right up my alley. After buying and watching it, I was very pleased. However, I have a feeling that I saw this movie a billion years ago on HBO, but just don't remember it.
As for the movie itself, well I love 80's horror movies. Which are different than horror movies, a horror movie is creepy, yet timeless and not dated. Now Bad ... Read More
Rating: - Bad Dreams an original film.
I suppose this movie would have to be classified as a horror/thriller. It has plenty of thrills and manages to keep one on the edge of his seat. Jennifer Rubin and Bruce Abbott have plenty of onscreen chemistry and both their characters' relationship can be quite touching at times, particularly at the end of the film. Richard Lynch is absolutely perfect as the David Koresh-like Harris, who leads his devout, yet very confused followers, to their flaming deaths. It's the seventies clashing with the ... Read More
