3 Stars for Cherry Falls, 4 for Terror Tract

This DVD contains 2 more obscure Horror Films that never made it to the theatre.

Cherry Falls- starring Brittany Murphy & Jay Mohr

Plot- The town of Cherry Falls is shocked when a killer starts offing the teenage population, which happen to all be Virgins. When the students learn about the killers modus operandi, they throw a ''Pop Your Cherry Ball'' where the students can surrender their virginity. This movie is rare in the fact its usually the ones who are having the sex who are offed first, this time it's the virgins. This film was also recommended in Fangoria's '100 Horror Films youve never seen'. Overall, its a decent horror film with a different twist to it.

Terror Tract- starring John Ritter
Now this one was suprisiningly unique. This is a Creepshow like film, except it dosent have the cartoons with the stories.

Plot- A real estate agent is showing a couple around town who are looking to buy a home. Every home they go to seems to have some terrible murder that happened in it. John starts telling the creepy stories when he gets in the house and is showing them around.

Story One 'First House'- About a couple having an affair and some crazy husband or lover who finds them together. They put him in the lake but he ends up coming back. And a twist at the end. Pretty good story but not as scary as the other 2.

Story Two 'Second House'- Wow, this story was good and creepy, I sure wouldnt buy the house after hearing this one. Its about an evil monkey a little girl finds in her tree outside. Her dad lets her keep it in the house for a little bit but still has a feeling theres something wrong with the monkey when he starts biting him and throwing stuff at the dog. He finally gets fed up and wants the monkey out but the monkey wont leave and he starts trying all kinds of tricks to get him out, but the monkey keeps returning and the ending is brutal! This story makes me feel different about monkies now. Excellent story.

Story Three 'Third House'- This story is about a teenager whos having premonitions of a murderer on the loose and seeing pyschic visions of the killings. Hes worried the killer will strike again and is getting feelings so he goes to some therapist lady to tell her. This story would have been great as a whole film. The 'killer' in this film is so scary. Hes called ''granny'' and wears a granny mask that is one of the most frightening masks ive ever seen a killer wear. Whenever he kills he says ' Dont worry, its only Granny!!' then he kills them with an ax or a knife. This one was great.

Then the ending where Ritter has to make the sale of a home before the days up but the couple is so freaked out they dont want to buy a home now. The ending was a twist and it was funny at the same time.

4 stars for Terror Tract, Highly Recommended. July 10, 2006

At Virgin High, It's Put Out Or Die...

Yeah, the movie Cherry Falls seems a little strange making a mini-skirted killer killing virgins of a local high school in Cherry Falls. I like this movie and it's totally better than scream and much smarter also. There is blood and guts, but not much, since it was edited for TV. This movie was going to make it to theaters, but since it the movie was going to have an
NC-17 rating, so they cut it down to an R rating, but the movie got sold to USA NETWORK. You can read the script on the internet, and it was so much better than the movie, but this movie is ok. The characters are hip, Brittany Murphy has black hair in this move, which is alot like Neve Campbell's in scream, but this movie is like Scream in a way. But much better.

Good movie, you can watch this movie on USA on Halloween, or SCI-FI, or you can buy it. October 28, 2005

The four stars is for Terror tract alone.

Terror tract is a horror anthology film like some of the tales from the crypt episodes or creepshow. It stars John Ritter who is hilarious in this film by the way he plays a real-estate manager who is showing a young couple a house to live in a nice and quite neighborhood, that is until he tells them the stories that happen in each of the houses. There are three half an hour stories in the film, the first one tells about a wife that has an extramarital affair but as soon as her husband catches her all hell breaks loose, I won't spoil the suprise. The second story is the best one as it involves an evil monkey that terrorizes a small family, the third strory is probably the worst one as it involves a troubled teenager that is psychicly linked to a serial killer has one gory death sequece but the story just sucked. Overall the film was great and had some suspensful and funny moments that elevated it from being a typical straight to video horror film.

Now Cherry Falls was truly an awful slasher film with Brittany Murphy proving once again that she is the worst actress I have ever seen. The killer in the film gets to kill any one that is a virgin in the small and local town so the students decide to all spend the night at school and sleep with each other so they wouldn't get killed. What seems like a good idea is imediatly destroyed by a bad and patheticaly stupid storyline and it just sucked so bad. I remmember watching this film back in 2001 but it had a different title like virgin high or something like that, I suggest that you avoid this film and just buy terror tract on its own.
