Picture

Fade to Black (1980)

Comedy/Horror/Thriller     Rated R

Plot

Eric Binford watches a lot of movies. He is the truest definition of a film geek. One day, his sanity takes a turn for the worse and he begins acting out his favorite scenes from the movies. In doing so, he manages to involve his enemies and the scenes usually result in death.

Acting

The acting is ok, but not near as good as it needed to be to make the story work.

Gore

Little to none.

Sex/Nudity

There is a brief post sex topless scene ,and a scene spoofing the famous "Psycho" shower scene.

Final Thoughs

An ok movie, with a somewhat original concept, the was not expertly executed and need to be. Without either great acting, or great gore, the story doesn't work for the entire length of the movie, which is too long to begin with. A movie you can skip, but its also not an entire waste of your time.
