So Weird!!

lol - I watched this again last night, after taking a couple of painkillers and in the middle of a sleepless night. Perfect timing!! I stand by my first comment; this is an underrated film - but throw logic out the window! Fulci definitely took his "dream-logic" approach a step further with this little weirdo film, which when sleep derived and a bit enhanced, is a good time! I enjoyed it even more the second time around, and loved every bit that didn't make any sense at all! I was also creeped out a tad, I must admit. When something doesn't make sense and you can't quite make things out, it heightens your fright meter, and this is exactly what must have happened to me. I tell ya's, there were some creepy moments!

Anyway, I'm halfway thru Voices From Beyond for the second time, and so far, am liking it less than the first time.

Cheers!

Good, I also believe when things are weird and don't make sense, it makes it creepier. I can't wait, haven't seen it yet but I will soon and I'm looking foward to it.

Yeah you PMS like a bitch I would know

Yeah I agree, this is a great movie.. Provided you see it when your sleep deprived and high on pain killers.

I found this movie to be extremely confusing and I couldn't make sense of it at all, but for some reason I still liked it anyways. I enjoy the atmosphere and visuals so I still had to give it a 6/10.

Even the title is confusing. But it is eerie and not so gory as some of other Fulci movies.
