Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

I don't know how anyone can give this more than 1 star, wish we could give it minus stars. The acting, editing, script, actors, music everything was awful. Sometimes a movie is so bad its funny even when its not supposed to be, this was even that.This has to be the 2nd worst movie i have ever seen, i have no clue where the $75,000 budget went, it looks more like $7.50. Avoid at all costs, the people who like it must be involved in the movie. I wouldn't pay anyone involved with this, in fact they should pay us to watch it and if i knew how bad it was i still wouldn't have watched it even if i had been paid to watch.Complete nonsense.

A man who works for a local airline gets a pay cut, but refuses to let his wife get a job. After working long hours, he stumbles upon her diary where he finds tales of her sexual exploits with the man's best friend and various others. Rather than confront his wife, the man snaps and seeks his revenge on each of the men. But they don't stay dead easily.You're seeing my high score and I know you're wondering why I rated it so high. The film, admittedly, is critically awful, but great by camp standards. We have a psychotic looking husband (played by Asbestos Felt, which is a great name). We have creative use of household appliances. The sound quality is rather poor in some areas, the video quality is very, very poor. But I think this film achieved what it set out to achieve -- a good, fun little flick with some blood.And I have to say it had a great plot. Sure, it's pretty simple and towards the end it really doesn't make much sense. But the basic idea and the twist are very good (hints are dropped for the twist, but even with the back of the box giving me yet another hint I didn't see it coming and really enjoyed the creative turn). You might have to suspend your disbelief for a while when you start wondering why the police aren't looking for all these dead men, but this is horror -- we don't need to worry about the details.There's good gore, but not what the cover says. Charles Balun says it is "a 9 on the Gore Score (with) several pleasingly repellent splatter sequences." This is an exaggeration. I'd give it more like a 6, or a 7 if I was being generous. It's really not very gory through most of the film, with even a severed head scene being more silly than anything. The only really great scene is one with a chainsaw. I had high hopes for the lawn mower scene (see "Dead Alive") but it really didn't amount to much. So, it does have some pleasant gore, but I've seen much better.Not being familiar with the other films from Tim Ritter, I can't make a full analysis of this film compared to his other works. But I will say this one is quite enjoyable, and the DVD is a steal when you see what is available for extras -- two commentaries (which I have yet to listen to) and a full-length documentary on Ritter's filming techniques. It's not Steven Spielberg, but if you're looking to make some low-budget horror (and after seeing enough films, you probably are) this is a great tutorial on how to really get the best looks from the least cash.This film is is not for those who want Hollywood actors, great music or special effects or quality sound and picture. It's poor in all these areas, and the documentary is even of lower quality if you can believe that. But if that poor quality makes you think this is right up your alley, it probably is. While I didn't get quite the film I expected (I thought it would be more like "Hobo With a Shotgun") I certainly came away with a feeling of warmth in my gullet.

I recently got this flick on DVD and from all I've read about in other reviews was really anxious to see it. When I was done I was very surprised. They don't make movies like this anymore! I guess the greatest thing about this is that it doesn't try to be that serious "which is evident during the head scene and the zombie finale" and it doesn't get so goofy that you don't even understand it. Heres the plot newlyweds tom russo "Asbestos felt" and Lisa "Courtney lercara" move to a new neighborhood and for a while everything goes alright. Except for toms nosy neighbor. But then he thinks his wife is having affairs with his friend and visitors. So he starts to kill them one by one. And the last fifteen minutes feels like your on a bad acid trip. This movie features several creative deaths like the screwdriver and clawhammer deaths. "gotta love the ceiling fan death" and fellow gorehounds will not be disappointed. mild bad acting but a great soundtrack even though it features the lamest porno music I've ever heard makes this an independent classic you must see.

Caution---some spoilers and other bad movie details (if you're reading this, you've probably already seen it and are equally appalled).I remember, back in the mid-80's, reading about this film in FANGORIA and the long-defunct publication SLAUGHTERHOUSE. If I recall correctly, "Killing Spree" was being touted as an 8-millimeter film, not 16-millimeter. Anywho, the "hype" behind this super-cheapie made it look fairly inept but successfully gory.Oh, but how my memory comes back to haunt me...I just saw "Killing Spree" for the first time a few days ago, and my gosh, I seriously disliked the film. I had hoped for something that was at least fun...I had always figured "Killing Spree" would be cheesy stuff, but man, are the gore effects bad! This is no offense to the effects artists who may still be employed in the industry...the film's budget takes the biggest blame for the effects' limitations. As has been said in past comments (to not be overly repetitious), the sound, dialogue, acting and lighting are all cruddy.I could write better stuff than this while in a coma.My major complaint is that the gore sucks! How anyone can enjoy this film on that level is beyond me because (as I say, darn my memory) the pictures advertising the film made the effects look so much better than they are. The main problem is the execution of said effects; a screwdriver would not pierce a skull like that, c'mon! And, a sledge through the face!? Sorry, not buying it, not unless that puppy was sharpened first.Asbestos Felt...gimme a break! I see where he performed the "rap" featured in the end title song...wow, a double threat, actor and rapper!Tim Ritter, what's up? Is this the best you could come up with? I don't mean to make this a personal issue, but there are so many better ways this story could have been done on the same budget and with the same over-actors. You could have had Asbestos imagine all of the murders he commits, and have him wake up next to his wife at the end, together and happily ever after...you could have given a little more motivation for some of the murders, such as the ultra-silly (not good) scene on the beach, where our favorite home insulation-actor drowns another actor (as unconvincing as such a thing gets) and storms off, all obviously shot without sound (less expensive) because everyone in the scene is strangely silent...you could have had Asbestos shrug after he realizes he had killed all those people for naught, wink at the camera and say "Hey, it's our little secret" (I know these suggestions are terrible, but) Anything would have been better than punishing us with the worst zombie-ressurection sequence I've seen since Liza Minnelli made her comeback (okay, cheap joke, but you get the idea.)Man, oh man, I cannot understand why this film had so much hype behind it while it was being made. Perhaps it had something to do with the final dedication at the end of the film to Herschell Gordon Lewis...yes, I agree, he is the Godfather of Gore and all, but he still made more entertaining gore films than this and the effects in Lewis's films (dare I say?) were more realistic."Killing Spree" was very disappointing. I expected it to be entertainingly, self-consciously bad. Instead, it was totally-incompetent, with subpar gore, and acting and dialogue that cause the brain to question its own purpose. This is not entertaining, just numbing.Jupiter, Florida...you must be proud...
