title represent neon maniac ( 1986 ) director represent joseph mangine cast represent it really doesn not matter and trust me review represent oh my god . lover of extreme cheezyness and bad b movie rejoice . i have discover a truly cheezy and utterly bad film that you lover of z level entertainment can totally immerse yourselves into . neon maniac . the story go something like this . a group of high school kid decide to hang out a the local park and you know and the usual teenage stuff represent beer and make out and bad eighty music . so in the midst of this little party they be have 12 psycho killer pop out of their underground layer and decide to kill the 12 kid in the stupid way possible . but wait . one of them escape . and the killer cant have a witness run loose and so they decide to go after her at all cost . so thats where our movie begin . when i pop this film into my dvd player and i be ready for what be come . i know that this movie be go to be cheezy beyond all hope and that the acting and music be go to be terrible . yet in spite of all my mental preparation . i still could believe how terrible this movie be . and i have see some bad film in my lifetime . and i have manage to enjoy a few of them precisely because they be so bad like for example troll ii or demon wind and but neon maniac be just too god awful . i thought and well it get a cool premise . twelve different creature kill off people leave and right . i think there be some possibility for cheezy and trashy entertainment . something maybe along the line of the toxic avenger film or something . you know and the type of movie that you know be low grade but you can have some fun with . well and sadly that be not the case with neon maniac . first off and we get the creature . heres the thing about them . they look stupid . i mean and there one thats suppose to be some sort of jungle boy and his get this little bikini on . there one thats suppose to be a samurai . one be suppose to be a war veteran . but heres the thing and you can never really get a good look at them . it seem the budget be so low that they hide the make up and their face in a lot of shadow . so you can never really connect with any of these creature or monster . they be just a bunch of undefined shadow and and i mean this both literally and metaphorically . heres the bad part represent these villain be weak . they have absolutely no motivation a to why they kill . they have no origin story to accompany their sad existence . they be just there . and they kill . thats it . you would think that with such a wide range of character appear in a movie you would have some sort of cool reason for them be who they be . i mean a it be and they be these crazy as cartoon character samurais and war crazy veteran and indian and biker dude who we know absolutely nothing about . they just pop up from their underground layer with their crazy halloween costume get up and kill people . what be this a reunion for the village people . as far a we know and there no mutant and no alien invasion or toxic waste be spill anywhere . these guy just exist . and it do not matter to the filmmaker to explain to the viewer why . anyhows and aside from the villain look absolutely ridiculous and give me a few reason to giggle and we also get some of the bad character in the universe . girl survive the killer attack and so what do she do after 11 of her best friend be murder . she go to school a if nothing have happen . then and when one of the character know where the villain hide out and what kill them she decide to go to the local battle of the band show instead of try to get people to help her and kill the creature . come on . where be her priority . one of the character be a horror movie director wannabe . and shes film her vampire movie in a graveyard . the vampire in her little film be about to suck the blood from a virgin . but there one little problem and shes film this during the daylight . heellllooo . anyhows and there many little thing like this that let you see that a bunch of idiot be the one in charge of make this movie . the movie have some of the bad music ever commit to a motion picture . ever see one of those crappy as wed video with that terrible syntheziser music on the background . well thats exactly what they use through out this whole movie . and it really really blow . trust me on this . aside from all this and i find some mild enjoyment in the 80 nostalgia trip that the movie be . it remind you just how bad the fashion and fad from that decadent decade be . in one scene there a battle of the band go on . but just between two band . one band be a chicago wannabe ( we get to hear not just one but two of their god awful song . ) and the other be a mix between every other hair band that exist in the eighty . anyhows and i find this movie only to be good for a giggle . you will only enjoy it if your previously warn of how bad it be and you be ready for it . or if your really into this type of bad film and enjoy watch a film thats so bad and that you just have to watch it to see where film can go when hand to complete incompetent . watch neon maniac only work if you know that this be just a huge piece of cheeze thats mean to be laugh at instead of take seriously . you have be warn . rating represent 1 out of 5 .
