Grotesque (1988 film)
Grotesque is a 1988 horror film that was directed by Joe Tornatore. Linda Blair, who previously starred in The Exorcist, starred in the film and was the associate producer. It was filmed at Big Bear Lake.
Joe Corey, of Inside Pulse, wrote, The movie gets weird with a rather arty finale about cinema and reality. This isnt so much Grotesque as Perplexed. Stuart Galbraith IV, writing for DVD Talk, said that the picture is a timewasting jumble of halfbaked ideas, overcooked performances the actors playing punks are ridiculously overwrought throughout, and herkyjerky pacing.Paul Pritchard, of DVD Verdict, wrote that Grotesque makes yet another shift as it becomes an early entry into the torture porn genre, before ending in total farce, as it makes one final genre shift into comedy. A review in VideoHounds Cult Flicks amp Trash Pics said that the film is played too straight to be funny and too badly to be shocking. ........
