This is one of the top 10 horror films ever made! The fantastic special effects make this a true classic! This is a masterpiece of gore!

Whoopsie! Check the Internet Movie Database listing on the main "Pigs" page--this movie has about fifty damned alternate titles, including "The Strange Love Exorcist"--wow--and stars Katherine (The Swarm) ROSS! I asked 'Fenris' about Ms. Ross' participation in this travesty a while back before I wised up and checked the IMDB; his copy apparently has an alternate name for Ms. Ross...who can blame her? Search for it as "Daddy's Deadly Darling." I HAVE to see this wad of yak!

The IMDB has been corrected; it ain't the same Katherine Ross.

My . . . gosh.  Movie . . . awful.  Brain . . . won't function after . . . watching.  Must . . . type . . . like this.

according to the IMDB, Marc Lawrence who played Zambrini , helped write that movie Mickey Blue Eyes

Not only is this bad, it's almost impossible to sit through. Being drunk does not help during the "film" but it certainly helps afterward.... Right up there with "Nail Gun Massacre."

When I watched this God forsaken movie, one prayer came to mind " LORD, GIVE ME CANCER NOW!"

"Pigs" is a brilliant low-budget movie. It makes use of the simplest elements and succeeds in surpassing its limitation by leaps and bounds. How sad that so many narrow-minded people would trash simply because they saw no "gore."

When you hold a film to such shallow standards without even the simplest attempt at appreciating it, it's truly a tragedy.

Back to ignorant bashing we go.

I should also add that the sing-song nursery rhyme repeated throughout the film is an excellent dramatic device. The review is extremely shortened and highly misleading. It makes the movie sound as deep as a 90s teen horror Wes Craven flick.

As far as the actors ending up as starving artists, Marc Lawrence has starred in countless gangster roles throughout the years and is a very well known, accomplished actor.

A bit of clarification which seems to have completely escaped every one: the jumpy dialogue, dream sequences, and *everything* else about the movie which everyone is so conviently ridiculing are all done intentionally: they are the very things which create the nightmarish feel of the picture -- and no, not because they're "bad," as if that wasn't obviously enough a cheapshot.

"Somebody's waiting for you, somewhere down the road!"
I can't believe noone has mentioned the catchy theme song during the credits.  This is by far the worst movie I've ever seen and I know my friends agree.  I now eat pork, ham, bacon and other pig products as much as possible just so that I can feel like I am evening the score.  Not only has it not erased the painful memory of this movie, I now have high blood pressure and will probably die within the next 6 months.  Thank you, PIGS, for ending my life.  At least I won't have any more nightmares of being trapped in a pig pen while a crazy, old farmer tells me I'm a troublemaker.

dustin(horror fan,you get the point!)

I knew Mark Lawrence is a great character actor. But now I know he also is a great director!

Shew...This is bad. I lived through it somehow. By the end of the movie my mind was so blank I had no idea what was going on.
