"CHAOS"

[Stacy Davidson]

Anyone seen Chaos yet?

I noticed this quote they've been posting about their film:

"Don't make the mistake of thinking CHAOS is only a horror film. Having seen it, I cannot ignore it, nor can I deny that it affected me strongly and when CHAOS was over, I was filled with sadness and disquiet. The movie works."
- ROGER EBERT


Now, I knew that Ebert had given them zero stars, so I went to go check out the actual review and this is what I found:

"Much of the action involves the girls weeping and pleading for their lives. When the film pauses for dialogue, it is often racist.

So that's it. DeFalco directs with a crude, efficient gusto, as a man with an ax makes short work of firewood. Kevin Gage makes Chaos repulsive and cruel, Quann is effective as a pathetic, dim-witted sex slave, and the young victims are played with relentless sincerity; to the degree that we are repelled by the killers and feel pity for the victims, the movie "works." It works, all right, but I'm with Ed Gonzalez: Why do we need this s--t?"


Funny. Anyway here's the full review:

And here's the funniest horror review you'll ever read in your life on Aintitcool (seriously, I was in tears):
