Title: Pig with a Chainsaw
Post by: Begita on February 04, 2007, 12:12:39 PM
I am trying to figure out if i have all the facts of this movie, someone else asked me what it was called and now I have been trying to figure it out and am almost at my wits end so here is the info I have about this movie.

I has to do with some teenagers trapped on an island that has a monster/guy with a pig's head and a chainsaw. His head is a pig's, not a mask. I remember an "American Gothic" type feel to it. I know it's not Motel Hell. It's more "B" then that.

Any thoughts ?

About when was this seen and when does your friend think it was made?

I asked, because this sounds like "Piggsy" from the PS2 game "Manhunt."

I'm pretty sure that's Motel Hell. I have the t-shirt with the saw wielding pig on it, it's one of my favorites!

The island part is dfinetly NOT MOTEL HELL,though the backwoods feel and pig headed chainsaw guy sounds exactly like MOTEL HELL. Also,I recall no teens in MH,beyond the 20ish bride of Farmer Vincent. The others were a rock band,an S+M couple,and various snoops. The hero was the dorky,chunky guy from the old CHiPS TV show,playing a cop.

The best match I could find has something like a pig's head, but no chainsaw mentioned in any review.  Found a review with a picture of the killer from "The Slayer" here:

i remember seeing a direct to video release of some horror flick not too long ago boasting a pig faced killer on the front, dont recall the name ill stop into blockbuster and see what it was called.

Yeah, I don't know what year or anything.
thats the only info she had, I immediately thought Motel Hell as well.
sometimes details get messed up though, and people who think it was an island the victims were on happend to actually be a park with a water fountain.
but from what I could gather from her, she figures it isn't Motel Hell and is something else.  :question:
but I'm stumped

That'd be Full Moon's "Dr. Moreau's House Of Pain"

Nathan of ColdFusionVideo.com has a review that sums up the film nicely:

Not sure if this is the film that the poster is looking for, but I'm sure it's the one that Joe is thinking of.

Ah!  Good one, Skaboi!  It was that movie and the review at coldfusion that I was really thinking of, so disregard my previous post.

I recently ran across the description of a film about a demon killing people, supposedly in Miami's "Nigerian Community" (it was actually shot in Africa).  The information I found describes a demon that could fit your description and it does also mention a chainsaw at the end.  However, not certain how well your memory of a group of teenagers matches up to the elements.

The movie's name is "Headhunter" and I came across it in the Psychotronic Video Guide.

I don't think it's "Headhunter." I have that crap-fest on VHS and I really don't recall any pig-headed chainsaw wielding maniacs. Perhaps "Slaughterhouse" (1987) is the culprit?
Here's the IMDB page: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093990/

yes it does sound like Slaughterhouse .................... creepy cover too I remember it ... dam or was it Dr. Moreau's House Of Pain?

I just skimmed through "Slaughterhouse" and while the film is set in a way that says either "island" or "coastal," it does not appear to fit otherwise.  Moving this to the unsolved archives, pending anyone who recognizes it or more info.

OH SH!T I'll bet it's the BOARDING HOUSE!!!!! (Look at the trailer in the BAD MOVIES section!!!! It's a pig headed monster...with a chainsaw!!!!)  :buggedout: :buggedout: :buggedout:

BOARDING HOUSE wasn't on an island, and I'm pretty sure the pig-head was not the one with the chainsaw (though I need to watch it again).  I wouldn't be surprised if the original poster had mixed up two different movies.

I have never seen the movie...but it was just a shot in the dark,based on the trailer. Ah,well....!

The film you might be thinking of is called Hack(2007).I saw this and it involves a group of college students that are invited to an island to study wildlife by a psychotic couple who(unbeknowest to the kids)have their own sadistic plans;to make a horror movie with the kids reenacting murder scenes form famous horror movies.There is one scene towards the end where the male killer wears a pig head and has a chainsaw.However this is only like a 5 min scene and the killer does not wear this through the whole movie or does not have a permenant pig head.This might be what your friend was thinking of.

Are we absolutely sure that it's not Motel Hell?

Hmmm.....was going to post a picture of the cover of an issue of Fangoria that shows a guy wearing a pig's head and holding a chainsaw clearly identified as being from Motel Hell...

But when I tried to do it it tells me that I can't post pics as a guest...I'll have to register.

So I register and now it's telling me "Sorry, you are not allowed to post links."

So why the hell did I bother registering?  :lookingup:

Anyway, I guess go on Bing, search for "Fangoria" and you'll find the page I did.

Well no kids on an Island in Motel Hell and the OP said that he is not talking about Motel Hell.So most likely not Motel Hell.
