The Mangler is by the worst horror movie next to Dreamcatcher,Cabin Fever,House of the Dead, Halloween 3,and Ax Em. Stephen King's short story is expanded to feature length with Tobe Hooper directing. The main plot is a woman is mangled in a laundry steam-roller and then it takes a cop to figure out why the steam-roller is killing the people. The cast is good with Robert Englund as the crazy owner of the laundrymat and Ted Levine(who played the villian Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs)as the cop but the movie is confusing and then turns ludricrous in the middle half. The only good part is when the man is ripped apart in half by the steam-roller's claw.
