30 in 30 - DAY FOUR - I, MADMAN (1989)



What is it with all of these movies from 1989 lately? Ha! Here we have another "stinker" from the late 80s decline. It wasn't a terrible film, just very formulaic/derivative. Girl reads horror novels and as she does, the things she reads start to come to life. Murders ensue, her policeman boyfriend doesn't believe her story, and then the killer begins to stalk her by the end! A decent protagonist, some good SFX, but some really terrible acting. It's a b-horror movie for sure and if you're looking for that kind of thing, then you will enjoy this. Hell, there is even a hairless, stop-motion animated monkey demon that shows up too! Have fun with it!







I remember this getting the cover of Fangoria back in the day as if it was some sort of second coming horror hit. I had to laugh then (and still do now) over the "More over, Freddy" line. Yeah right.
