Customer Reviews

The Last Horror Film, Something Wonderfully Different
"The Last Horror Film" aka "Fanatic", is about a taxi driver from New York named Vinny who's obsessed with the famous actress, Jana Bates. He leaves his mother after getting up money to go to the Cannes Film Festival to try and get her into a moie that he wrote, the only problem is he can't get to her. Now what do you do in a situation where you're obsessed with an actress but you can't get close because of heavy security? Go to anyone associated with her. He comes in contact with many people around her including her ex-husband, agent, producer, and others. And wadya know, they all turn up dead, starting with Jana's ex and director, but no one does much about the deaths because they think they're all just part of a joke. Now that everyone around her is dead Jana is free for Vinny's taking and it all comes down to the superior ending!

This film is great! It's definantly not your typical independent film. It's more! Alot more! You see the main character Vinny start to slowly crack and descend into complete madness. He calls his mother from time to time and breaks down. This film has less gore but more story than "Maniac". Definantly worth checking out, I recomend it to anyone.

CLASSIC CULT FILM!
I am a huge fan of classic cult films, and The Last Horror Film is a must for anyone else that is a fan of such films as well. A guy named Vinny basically is obsessed with an actress that he desires to be a part of his own film. This crazed fan doesn't exactly win her over, and people around her start to dying, one after another. Definately not your borring, let alone average, indie flick from the 80's!

Great slasher with good extras
This is a great slasher movie that I'd recommend to any fans of the genre. A creepy cab driver stalks an actress who he has an obsession with. Continually unsuccessful in meeting her, he "meets" those close to her instead.

The Tromasterpiece release has some nice interviews, footage and extras that makes it worth the buy.
