| User ReviewJake SCriminally insane is a bad movie by all accounts, but that doesn't keep it from being some campy horror fun. |
| User ReviewSylvester KIt's one of those "It's so bad that it's good" films, kinda like Pink Flamingos, but more murderous. It's one of the little gems from the 70s. Now to think about it, it's kinda satire to today's obese people with mobility vehicles that refuse to diet at any cost. It's campy fun. |
| User ReviewLars JSomeone should reallyh remake this. I would love to see a morbidly obese woman on a rascal scooter killing people. |
| User ReviewBrian CSo bad it's good. And it is very very bad. At the same time we can't help but laugh at the most ridiculous dialog, and the adventures poor Ethel gets into. And all because she just wants the key to the fridge. Criminally Insane is not a good movie in any way shape or form, but it is hilariously bad, and can't help but smile at the sheer awfulness of everything. |
