NYR is in my top 10 giallos! I love this movie! I don't think it's slow at all and if I showed most average joes this movie they would all say this movie is nasty with all it's gore. Just the way I like my giallos!

exactly. to wit, watched a real heap of crap called The Slaughter (...the plot of which i can barely bring myself to relate...) which featured a rather "nasty" death featuring intestinal spewing etc, whilst having my tea! ie it was a dull as dishwater film (with reallybad audio, so i missed half the dialogue anyhow!) which only a xtian shut in would find offensive. pass! give me a squeaking psycho anyday! you could put on a "virtual" sleaze tour of New York with all the films theyve done over the years... oops this was meant o go under Daemonia's last reply...must quote more often...ahem. |

Yeah, I can understand how someone could be disappointed by it, the experience of discovering the film now and seeing it back in the day, on a blurry Dutch subbed VHS bootleg (like I did) is so different I can well understand it... I loved it and still do. I took the gore in my stride but Alexandra delli Colli getting toe-f*cked - when I saw it first in the early '90's, this 15 year old had no idea you could do things like that with your feet

Yeah I agree. It was one of the few nasties I didn't see at them time, so I've had no nostalgia or feelings for when i first saw it. Unlike Zombi 2, Evil Dead and The Exorcist. I viewed it now, as a thirty something and as said everything looked dated and badly paced. |

I wasn't disappointed at all with it, I have the first BU DVD and the Shameless edition and will definitely be upgrading to Blu Ray in the near future. Yeah the duck quacking is a bit of a joke but overall it's a pretty grim and vile film that I put in a similar league with the two David Hess House films, each to their own though I suppose "They all float down here, they allll floaaaattt!!!"

Anyway, the film is still punk rock for me.... if my wife walked in while I was watching it, I'd probably switch it off... it's still a raw, offensive film even if the violence has lost its edge over the years... Stories of the uncut print being deported from the UK are true - the BBFC was really concerned about the scene with the broken bottle - their theory was, it could be a weapon anyone could improvise on the fly...

You're quite right, Wes.The New York Ripper is a film I wouldn't feel comfortable watching in the company of someone who wasn't familiar with the genre (especially the stronger stuff).

I've got the house to myself tonight so I think I might have a sleazefest, certainly got plenty of films that qualify "They all float down here, they allll floaaaattt!!!"
