30min in & all I can say is "this movie rocks!" That goddam narrator is amazing!
shareHe's eating turkey.
shareHe's about to eat the turkey! He's about to eat the turkey! Nooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!
shareWhat an odd experience this is wathcing this awful unheard of to me till 45 minutes ago movie, and now find multiple people watching with me from all over America, or whereever TCM is shown.
I'm in Kentucky (where something like this may yet happen).
From where are you watching?
Did I mention the AWFUL acting.
Hes convulsing and now they are showing a leaf for to long a time and hes walking towrds camera, ITS DARK!!
They just showed his Turkey form & I almost wet-myself laughing. Holy crap! He wrote her a note!!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHHAH!!!!!!! AHAHAHHAHAHAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!! HAHA!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm in New York City by the way.
shareHer line delivery need to be in the Smithsonian. BTW the Holy girl looks a little like Paris Hilton in the face.
I see a Tiger picture. The star of this movie had his tiger Bobo escape and be shot by authorities. It was on the news.
Its just him with a Turkey head on. Walking through the woods now.
I HAVE to see more of this guys movies, if they are anything like this.
This movie is kind of like being tortured. My screen was so dark for so long I thought something was wrong with the set.

The audio isbad. There is a constant hiss throughout the movie.
You'd think TCM ro woever owns this would spend a couple million to clean this up.
DIGITALY REMASTERED with CGI TURKEY HEAD!
This site should have a live blogging system like others do so we strangers can all watch terrible movies together in the middle of the night. It would really increase their page views as well. Where do I collect for my great idea?

Focus please!

xactly what I thought. But they would make people pay for it. You have to give credit card info or buy something on Amazon just to post here.
Shes being strangled now. And Tukey is watching.
To see that this classic was actually on the same night/channel as Lawrence of Arabia means that this movie has arrived! I saw this through Netflix last month and loved it. I how Stephen Hakwes is getting royalties for having it aired on TCM.
sharei was channel surfing and read the description and saw a few minutes and
immediately had to find out about this awful (acting, plot, etc) movie.
None of these people made other movies.....wonder why? :)
shareThis movie needs to be re-made in.........3-D!
shareIMAX 3D !
shareKnowing how things are they probably WILL remake this.
Yes Lucas and his gang should reformat this for IMAX!
Do not let Lucas touch this movie.
shareMy ears! Yikes!
shareLucas could put CGI animals in the background, add the scenes that were cut out do to the fact they were filmed 30 years too early, and only now had the technology to cahch up.
Oh, its ALLLL a dream. I bet he is a WERE-TURKEY. Changes in the full moon.
watching this movie in victoria BC
it is a classic; damn, a power saw too..haha
this makes ed wood seem oscar worthy

Usually I would care that I couldn't understand the dialogue in a film, but I guess in this case it is an act of mercy.
Herschell looks like Kurt Russell.............with Down Syndrome.
PS
Did the narrator/director just have a coughing fit on camera??????? BWAHAHAHWHAHA!!!!!
I'm going to use my DVR to re watch portions of this.
Don't worry its over now.
What did everyone think, or has everone's brain shut down by that fact that something like this was payed for and made into an ACTUAL MOVIE!
If this movie weren't so delightfully bad, I'd have figured the narrator's coughing fit was an intentional comment on the evils of tobacco...but that would be giving them too much credit.
shareI wonderwhat the rating is for TCM right now. There seem to be almost double digits, not in millions, Just 12 maybe 15 people.
Don't chain smoke in your own movie guy.
Now they are kissing. Its all happy now THE END
WTF?!?!??!? There's supposed to be another 20min of Blood Freak. I don't wanna see some "punk rocker" get ink. Yeah this chick is punk, Sid Vicious just came back to life simply so he could kill himself again.
shareTCM does that quite offten. Sometimes 30mins early or more.
Now they are palying Ron Howard stuff. Alot of his movies ae on the level of Blood Freak I wonder they'll be on TCM Underground.
I'm a negi-punk.
shareI can't believe I never saw this one before. What a goddamned masterpiece. Love the guy breaking in every so often with his little gems of "philosophy". I'm also pretty shocked at the lack of nudity, given the target market for this - I guess the filmmakers really WERE Jesus-people! Too funny! Yikes!
shareMaybe funny enough to be a stoner movie? huh? turkey puff? huh?
FAQ:#1 IMDB quote
"You're just jealous"
Santa is real
Just got done watching it with my wife. It was like a car accident...couldn't take our eyes away. My favorite was the off-screen noise during some of the scenes. Did the crew not realize the camera was rolling? Did somebody make this on a dare? Somewhere between Manos: Hands of Fate and Plan 9 From Outer Space.

What a movie! Needs more nudity. A couple of the chicks aren't bad.

There is one redeeming feature. It is OVER.
I was out and I get home and my dad told me about this and I didn't believe him, but here it is. He said it was better than anything MST3K did.
TCM is the *beep*

I was flipping channels last night and came across this gem and could not look away. Just when you think you've seen the worst acting on screen, it would hit a new low...
Everything about this was unbelievable... the acting, the cinematography, the lighting (or lack thereof)... absolutely dreadful, yet I can't remember laughing so much in a long time.
As far as a film goes, this one is one of the worst, but as far as being entertaining, well, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Oh. My. God.
I SOOOoo wish I had known there was going to be an impromptu live blogging session going on here for this KILLER of a movie! I like to think of myself as a connoisseur of bad movies. My personal favorite for the longest time has been The Creeping Terror. But THIS.... this is something else all together. All hail Blood Freak! And let's all write to TCM and give them some credit for dishing out the goods. This Underground season ROCKS and we should let them know that!
Taped this last night on my vcR and watching it now.
shareFantastic movie. The high (really low) point of the acting had to be the two scientists. It seemed like they slapped lab coats on two somewhat illiterate people off the street and told them to read off of placards.
shareThose guys were great! They weren't illiterate, they were just totally hammered. The guy with the round clean-shaven face especially seemed just pleased as punch by all the events in the film. Appreciated the super-duper scientific Tupperware on the top shelf of the "lab,", right next to the gallon bottle of spring water.
Wow! Finally seeing this is really cheering me up for the new year!
I feel like I should carry this around with me in a portable DVD player in case I run into someone who's thinking of commiting suicide. "Wait! Don't do it! You think you've seen it all, experienced all that life has to offer and it's still not enough - well, let me show you something UNLIKE ANYTHING YOU'VE EVER SEEN OR DREAMED OF SEEING......"
It was certainly ... different. Something to be seen to be believed.
I rate it 5/10 (on my B movie scale) -- where "The Brain that Wouldn't Die" rates about a 10 and Ed Wood's "Plan 9" rates a 4. I've yet to see a bad horror movie that rates a 1 yet, there's always something to like about them.
I wonder if Friday Night's airing of "Blood Freak" on TCM was the largest audience that this movie had ever reached?
