      Written and directed by Frank Henenlotter, this oozer specializes in unspecial effects and unspeakable acting. ( Read More )

      The little monster speaks with a comforting, calm voice, and Brian isnt afraid to follow its instructions. ( Read More )
    • Richard Propes

      Gleefully tasteless and filled with enough I cant believe they went there gags to fill several horror flicks, Brain Damage is rather joyfully tasteless, one of the biggest reasons the film continues to be a cult favorite of true fans of indie horror. ( Read More )
    • Jonathan Hatfull

      Its the mix that so many other low budget schlock hound filmmakers have gone for, but so few make it work. Its imperfect, tasteless, but hugely watchable. ( Read More )
    • Anton Bitel

      As high on concept as it is low on budget, Henenlotters 1980s urban horror is cheap, sleazy and irresistibly addictive. Its the best kind of bad trip. ( Read More )
