The Lift

[Pieter de Wolf]

Dude...fell off my chair and almost died laughing when I discovered De Lift while scrolling through this list. I remember talking about this flick for days when I'd seen it for the first time as a kid. Too bad there aren't any oversized reptiles, insects or amphibians in this one, but it sure beats the hell out of the vast majority of Dutch films and I can actually live with the fact that it's broadcasted on TV at least twice a year.

btw, am I the only one that would like to see Katja Schuurman or Chantal Janzen being eaten by some giant latex critter?;)

Pretty bad movie, but there is one way to make it a little enjoyable.  Get a good stock of beer and sit down with some friends.  Everytime a character says the word "lift" everyone shouts the word out and drinks.  Much better movie this way.

First of all, my reaction upon discovering this review was, 'huh?'  Second, "Wait a minute!  A killer elevator movie?"  Third, "I check this out!!"  Overall, another crappy movie and I must say that decapitation reminds me of the Last Crusade for some reason.  For an R film, that wasn't really that graphic, just... weird...

English:  This is indeed a great dutch horror movie. The first time when i saw this movie, i liked it.  

(Dutch) Nederlands: Dit is inderdaad een geweldige Nederlandse horrorfilm. De eerste keer dat ik deze film zag, vond m al goed.

I am waiting for the promised follow-up known as "The Escalator"

@ Guilherme Oliveira, it is not in Deutsch, it is in Dutch!
Deutsch is the German word for German.
Dutch is the English word for Nederlands (Dutch in Dutch).

You can watch "The Lift" and tear it apart together...it's embedded on the page Horrible Movies on Facebook!

I just saw this movie, and I would also like to know the names of the English dub actors. Some of them sounded like they were the same actors from Robotech (1980s).

(Neither the closing credits of the movie nor IMDB give the names of the English dub actors.)
