Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

bensonmum2 Ecuadorian horror - I guess I can mark that off my bucket list. Honestly, who knew there was such a thing? For the most part, Swamp of the Ravens is fairly typical low budget 70s Euro-horror/trash type stuff. The plot goes something like this: Dr. Frosta is working with a serum to bring the recently dead back to life. Beyond that, the plot gets fuzzy. I'm sure he's trying to do something else, but for the life of me I don't know what it is. In fact, most of the rest of the movie doesn't make a bit of sense. When Dr. Frosta's experiments with the deceased go wrong, he hacks off a few limbs (again, not sure why - I suppose so they can turn inconveniently turn up later) and dumps the bodies in the swamp where their heads creepily bob up and down like apples at Halloween. Unfortunately, the police begin noticing people are missing and body parts start appearing. The police turn their attention to Dr. Frosta's shenanigans. Throw in a girlfriend that Dr. Frosta kidnaps and ties up so she won't leave, scenes from a real autopsy, huge buzzards (standing in for the titular ravens) everywhere you look, dubbing as bad as I've seen, a goofy lounge singer with an absurdly humorous song, bottom-of-the barrel acting, special effects that don't deserve to be called "special", and a touch of necrophilia, and you've got Swamp of the Ravens. While there is a certain amount of atmosphere and there are some creepy moments, none of it is very good. It's a cheap movie and it shows. And, as I said at the start, most of it makes absolutely no sense. A 3/10 from me.

zee This is one of those movies that I think might have a touch of genius to it but might just be bad. It doesn't help that I saw it translated into English, and I don't entirely trust the translator, for surely those song lyrics were different in Spanish.If the song lyrics were correct, we are to believe that there is an American singer who makes a living by touring Central America with a mannequin, who sings love songs about death and blood to said mannequin. This results in standing ovations. And it makes him enough money that he can afford two roadies who do nothing but carry the mannequin. This is now high on my list of possible careers: mannequin wrangler.When he's not doing that, he is seducing a girl by chanting the lyrics to a pop song to her while they dance to it , but off-rhythm and in a monotone. This makes her other choice of beau, the Dr. Frankensteinish character, seem rather preferable even if he is probably going to kill her for his evil, yet incomprehensible, experiments.And, making for a sort of four-sided love triangle, there is a sour-faced, middle-aged scientist coworker whom Mad Scientist buys flowers for. And apparently Ecuador has a large community of panflute players with leprosy. Who knew?Turgid, illogical, sexist silliness with a hint of underfunded genius somewhere.

Joseph Brando "Swamp Of The Ravens" is a very unusual piece of 1970's Euro Cult Cinema. It's story is one that was all all too familiar several decades before this came out. A doctor who has been banished from his hospital for crossing both moral and scientific barriers decides to strike out on his own and continue with his experiments. Except there is no Gothic castle here. Instead his laboratory is located in a shack surrounded by a swamp filled with the doctors used cadavers - which may be why all those ravens are hanging around it. There are some grisly sequences including what looks like a genuine autopsy - not stock footage but instead one which seems to have been performed especially for this film, with the actors present. Add some hazy performances, atrocious dubbing, a couple lepors, and a semi sadistic romance with just a touch of necrophilia - and presto! You have a crowd pleasing 1970's Euro Sleaze Extravaganza!
