SKIP IT!
I'm a Joe Pesci fan, so although I'm familiar with these cheesy "3 on 1" types of DVD compilations, I rented it from my local video store. Very weak movies you have here. They are B-movies or TV movies from the 70's and they look as low budget as you can get.
The first segment, "Honor Thy Father", was amateurish; although you expect cliches in a mob-themed movie, this one gave you all the bad cliches --badly submitted and badly portrayed by actors who seemed between guest appearances on "Kojak" or "Baretta".
The second, "Family Enforcer", was the best of this bad lot. Needless to say, this was due to the efforts of Joe Pesci.
The third and final movie, "Mob War", I gave up on after the first ten minutes. Rarely do I fail to see a movie all the way to its finish; however, after the first two I could see it was the same old story now getting worse by the minute. Off the DVD went, to be returned the very next day.

Two stars for Joe Pesci's presence.

Not Great Mafia Movies
I picked up Great Mafia Movies plus GMM Volume Two, and Crime Lords, and was disappointed. I went in with low expectations (which in turn was too high). They are no Godfather. These movies will put you to sleep. Video quality is poor and in some instances the color fades to green, yellow, etc. I picked up each one for six dollars (new), and still feel cheated. Save your money for one quality movie.

these movies were OK
i thought that these were ok movies, if you are interesteted in mafia movies it is worth seeing or adding to your collection. Family Enforcer was the better of the three, it also had an apperearence by a young Joe Pesci. ... Read more

Glorified Home Movie
Bog Creatures shows exactly what can happen when very enthusiastic people get together with a little cash, some knowledge of movie making, a mixed bag of aspiring actors, and a lot of determination, yet all without the necessary knowledge and skills to pull off anything more than a fairly poor looking After School Special (in a bad way, not a nostalgic good way). I mean this is so-so quality home movie / student film stuff if you want to pass it around to family and friends for free. Thankfully, I found it in a discount bin somewhere. Sure, there may be some sort of market out there for this kind of thing, but it is a market that seems to only exist by default because there are so many poor B movies out there. Even more so now in this day and age.

The only people I would recommend this move to is aspiring guerrilla filmmakers. First, I would recommend that they watch the special feature MAKING OF thing included on the disc. See the film crews enthusiasm, their hard work, joy, and very high opinions of their own product. THEN watch the movie. Within a few frames you will hopefully understand what went wrong. Bored, I went through the whole thing and clearly the director and cinematographer tried, but just don't know enough about what they are doing. They knew enough to have fun, but in the long run, without necessary skills, this interprets to: They knew enough to be dangerous. This is like a bad Nickelodeon movie (as apposed to a more decent one I guess). A couple of the actors did ok, and the cool stoner looking dude with the tattoo (real or fake tattoo I know not) was probably the best and most natural and I hope he makes it. But their natural acting talent was what was coming through despite the bad movie, bad script, and so-so directing principles. If the director had spent more time helping these aspiring actors to develop their characters, studying successfully proven camera techniques and lighting principles to direct his crew better, and if the script had been actually worked on instead of written in a week or so (according to the very indulgent documentary) then maybe this could have been more of a film. Instead, it's a film that has a feeling of some potential, and has a few moments in it (due more to the genre than the film itself), but ends up showing nearly every frame, WHAT NOT TO DO. If you want to see what a decent low budget horror movie can really look like, watch Phantasm or even Laserblast. If you want a glorified home movie (no joke), get Bog Creatures.

Looks Like An After School Special
This review pertains to a straight to video release called "Bog Creatures". Honestly, I knew better than to watch it for some reason, but I thought a stupid grade B horror film could be fun tonight!
OY was I wrong!
The movie is about some viking warriors that were thrown into a bog, therefore preserving their bodies for thousands of years. Flash forward to the present time. A sexy young group of archeaologists (sp?) are recruited to dig up the preserved bodies from the swamps. Well, you guessed it, the rotting bodies come back to life, rise from the swamps and start stalking and killing the students. Ala a cross between Friday the 13th and a Zombie flick.
Sounds good huh?
The cover art on the DVD case is awesome, very misleading. This movie is sooo cheaply done, it looks like a camcorder. The acting is sooo bad that one of the students has to swallow a pair of underwear after he is caught sniffing them, this scene is sooo bad it is enough to almost make me turn off the film. There is even a scene where a woodsman is leading the students to their campsite, and he points at it, but even the way he points looks "acted".
I won't be a total film snob (hee hee), so I can say if I were 10 years old I would have liked this film in the ways I liked "Saturday The 14th" and "Funeral Home".
The makeup on the Bog creatures themselves looks like the only way the director spent his budget.

Bogma
If your a fan of "B" movie horror, put this gem on your rental list. It has its problems (which are usually budget related with this genre), but it's a neat little quirky throwback of a horror movie. If you pick up the DVD, check out the making of documentary (which I almost didn't notice). Seeing what these guys suffered through made the movie that much more enjoyable.

Old-fashioned Horror Fun!
I went into this flick expecting run-of-the-mill low budget fare and came out exceedingly surprised! This is not your standard horror movie of today. The movie harkens back to an earlier form... it really is a traditional monster movie with all the delight that entails. The "Bog Creatures" in question are Medieval Danish Vikings who have been preserved as mummies in a peat-bog. When some American Archeology students begin to dig up the bog they awaken an ancient conflict... Now, doesn't that sound like a delicious plotline?! The characters are great. The students are a band of misfits and they are lead by a wacko professor who shares a rather - shall we say "odd"? - relationship with his prodigy sister. This is truly an engaging film, steeped in horror tradition yet packing plenty of surprises and "treats" for the viewer.

Keep the lights on!
Scariest movie I've seen since Ridley Scott's "Alien". ... Read more

It's [weak], yet I still bought it (ask me why)
I was first introduced to "AirBoss" at[weak] screen play, political incorrectness (not that that's necessarily a bad thing), and a plethora of military inaccuracies. Yet, I couldn't look away, nor stop laughing. Too bad Mystery Science Threatre 3K isn't still on the air. ... Read more

Over-rated by most of these Reviews!
Yes, I do believe that most of these reviewers have over-rated this film. One star indeed - where do you folks get off with such generosity? I too picked it up because of Sandra Bullock's pic on the cover, but I'm convinced that I overspent - I got it free at the library! I will recommend to them that they put it in the fireplace where it can actually be of some value - little though that will be.

SAVE YOU'RE MONEY!!!!
I give this movie a -10 stars because this movie isn't even worth one star! Well this film is one of the worst films that I have ever seen and wish to never see again. After about 20 minutes into the movie, I fell asleep. This is even worse than when my daughter watch the Teletubbies and they were colorful and did have some method to the madness!!! I gave this DVD away, because it was so horrible, and believe it or not...the darn thing was returned to me with a note that read: "Thanks, but no THANKS!!!" I guess that note says it all. I have filed this "movie" (and I use that term very loosely), in file 13 -- THE TRASH!

Very near the worst movie I've seen
The only movies that come to being as bad as this movie have all been on Mystery Science Theater. I'm sure this one would end up there if it weren't for all of the violence. The acting is downright horrible (never made it to the part with Sandra in it... I was about to throw up after 30 minutes and couldn't take any more). The cinematography is even worse... some of the worst angles, light/dark problems, etc. I've ever seen. I'm convinced games like Doom took their idea from this movie... there are shots where you are following guns around and watching them shoot people.

Another reviewer mentioned that High Schoolers could make better movies... I agree and I'm not so sure a middle schooler couldn't.

I found this one in the bargain bin at Walmart... it doesn't belong in the bargain bin, it belongs in the trash bin.

what a bummer
I HAVE SEEN WORSE, 1950S SCREEMING SKULL, THE BRAIN THAT WOULDNT DIE.
I WANT MY 90 MINS. BACK!
I FOUND THE ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER DIDNT HAVE SANDRA ON THE POSTER AT ALL, IT SEEMS LIKE A GOOD MARKETING PLOY TO PURCHASE THIS DVD , LIKE I DID. THIS MOVIE HAS HORRIBLE STORY , HARD TO FOLLOW,THE ONLY SAVING GRACE WAS SANDRA .
IT WAS A BIT LIKE LOOKING AT AN OLD YEARBOOK.
ACTION PACT, EDGE-OF-YOUR SEAT THRILLER, I THINK NOT , IT TOOK 2 WATCHINGS, BETWEEN NAPS TO FINISH.

Julia Roberts
First and for the record, Julia Roberts makes a small appearance in this film (made way, way, WAY before she became famous). You may not recognize her (apparently one reviewer hadn't) and she probably is quite happy with that. As for the film itself, I found it to be a wacky sexy farce in the tradition of Police Academy, Porky's and all those other films I wasn't allowed to see when I was in high school (but did). There is lots of nudity (and the bodies look great), but what's wrong with nudity as long as everyone is having fun? Lots of kids watch slasher films with an equal amount of nudity and I would rather have kids see this film. Saying it's for everyone is a stretch (this is a solid R-rated film), but if you're not a prude, not a feminist, and just like to have a good time, it is enjoyable to watch. A cult favorite on a lot of college campuses during "underwear only" parties if everyone has a water gun and uses it during the water hose scenes.

Julia Roberts really IS in this movie !!
For the longest time I swore Julia had nothing to do with this awful movie, but sure enough there she is - in bright red pants walking up a staircase in the Firehouse. She doesn't say a word, but it sure is a trip to see her.

LAME
This was the worst movie I have ever seen. Please don't waste your time with it. It was stupid and not the least bit funny.

Nasty movie!
I cannot believe Julia Roberts was in this movie... That is a travesty ... Read more
