This cheesy gem is coming to DVD 05/10/11 http://www.amazon.com/Sledgehammer-Ted-Prior/dp/B004N7NJ0Y/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1301292468&sr=8-4

Legit release and remastered from the original tapes. Bad movie lovers should rejoice 

Sweet! Loved a lot of SOV flicks and this one's been on my "must see" list for a while. I'd like to see Hollywoods New Blood get a legit dvd release as well - haven't actually seen it, but there's something strangely appealing about these type of movies.

DO NOT WATCH THIS.

This movie needs to be taken off the "B-Movie Must See" lists that people make.

There's only one reason that people resurrected, watched, or convinced themselves that they enjoyed it, and it's shallow... It was "shot on tape".

That's all.

I love a bad movie, but this movie needs to be about 20 minutes long. There are only a few funny scenes, and the rest of the time you are just going INSANE waiting for something to happen. It's slower than TREE OF FREAKING LIFE!

I know "shot on tape" is rare and charming, but it doesn't make a bad movie a good movie. Please take this one out of recommendation circulation.

Half the movie was shots of one thing in slow motion. For example there was one 5 minute scene of just two teenagers prancing through a prarie with acoustic fingerpicking in the background.
