Re: Clive Barker's RAWHEAD REX
Am I the only person in the world who has ever seen this?
It is an amazing 80's horror movie.
I havent seen it since I was a kid but it was about this HUGE creature type thing, almost a big foot like thing and it would just fucking ravish people with his sharp teeth
Re: Clive Barker's RAWHEAD REX
For people who live in the UK and have a digital box "Zone Horror" a free-view channel... shows this every few weeks.
It's just a typical low budget... horror flick. Unless your a "Clive Barker" buff not much point in making an effort.
Re: Clive Barker's RAWHEAD REX
RawHeadRex is one of my favorite horror movies. On a lot of old horror forums I used the handle PumpkinHeadRex which combined two of my favorite '80s flicks. I understand that Clive Barker wasn't happy with the finished product of this or Underworld/Transmutations (also directed by George Pavlou) and this prompted him to take complete control of the eventual Hellbound Heart adaptation, Hellraiser. RawHeadRex is an atmospheric, visceral, truly disturbing work that transcends its budgetary limitations and works on far more levels than it really should. Please be aware that many, many people are not fans of this movie and often cite the RawHeadRex creature make-up as silly. But to me those people were always missing the point. I always found the make-up to be very ethereal and off-putting. I have been looking for a proper DVD of this movie for the last couple years with no luck. I refuse to pay $200 on eBay for a used copy of the disc. Until then, I'll stick to bootlegs or the old VHS. Great movie and I'm glad to see someone mention it on here.
Also guys, let's not forget we can include discussions like this in our ongoing Clive Barker thread.
