Police try to capture someone who is commiting ritual murders of women during Mardi Gras in New Orleans.
Leave your thoughts about Mardi Gras Massacre.
| Alternate EndingTim BraytonA sizable portion of the film consists of watching uncomfortably-framed wide shots of people having deeply uninteresting conversations. |
| User ReviewLee ?Pretty much an Updated version of the 1963 classic Blood feast but instead the killer is an Aztec not an Egyptian. So main reasons why I watched this the title sounded promising and it if it was a semi remake to blood feast I was going to watch it. The film itself is very hard to get your hands on that?s what took me ages to watch it. Low rent semi-remake of Blood Feast. The movie that broke the barrier in showing gore on screen. In this version of the same story, instead of an Egyptian character we have a deranged Aztec high priest as the main character. A serial killer in a welder's mask stalks the streets of New Orleans during the Mardi Gras festival. He is a strange intense-looking guy who shows up at a bar which is also home to the town's prostitutes. The Aztec priest takes a prostitute back to his place and makes her strip. He then ties her to a table in his basement and begins doing some magical ritual. He then proceeds to torture her by amputating hands, then feet. Well like Blood feast there is a detective on the case looking for the killer. The story could have been better but to tell you the truth it never god boring. The acting is rather mixed usually we get a performance other times its kind of bad. The special effects are a big praise in my opinion that the reason this movie landed in the video nasty list. Some of the murder scenes were just unbelievably cool yet sick. Lots of nudity yeah and some sick acts of sexual nature. Music and setting are a different thing the music okay nothing scary about it but I liked the setting not scary but good. Here are some facts I found. The film was listed as one of the DPP's 72 video nasties in the UK and even made the final list of 39 official titles for prosecution. It has yet to receive a UK release. Shot in 1976 but couldn?t be released until 1979. But overall my final verdict is kind of recommended. If you love horrors of slashers your going to have a great time. |
| User ReviewBill BI really enjoyed taking the MST3K piss out of Mardi Gras Massacre but that could have been the 6 tall boys & 4 Caesars that I had drank previously that I was a pretty easy audience. The off the cuff comments were flying like crazy & was was smiling constantly. Im not sure if I watched this straight that it would have quite the charms so I high suggest that you take it in w/ some sort of buzz. Low grade to say the least but if you like the films of Herschell Gordon Lewis you will render a lot of the same enjoyment & it didn't seem to be a train wreck like a lot of his films are. That's not saying it's good but if you're looking for schlocky horror you can do a lot worse |
| User ReviewHollie TMardi Gras Massacre plays out like a cheap porn-parody of Q: The Winged Serpent with all of the sex scenes removed and replaced with montages to generic disco music. |
| User ReviewEric RI'm very forgiving towards ultra low budget drive-in type horror films of the 70s and 80s for the simple fact it was actually hard to make movies back in the day with limited funds and resources (unlike today where any talentless ass wipe can buy a cheap digital video camera, edit their own filth on their personal laptop and somehow convince Lionsgate to release it on DVD). However, even with a promising title like "Mardi Gras Massacre", this film comes off completely incompetent with no entrainment value what-so-ever, even on an unintentional level. The simple plot has an rich, high class asshole who goes around flashing cash and asking bartenders and pimps where he can find the most "evil" women. He then proceeds to take these hookers to his secrete chamber where he brutally sacrifices them to his Aztec God while wearing a gold mask. He disposes their bodies on railroad tracks (why I don't know as this seems like a terrible place to "hide" a body) and two bumbling cops somehow can't crack the case despite oodles of evidence pointing them in the right direction. Die-hard horror fanatics will notice the similarities between this and the plot to Herschell Gordon Lewis's splatter classic "Blood Feast" where a psychopath also sacrifices women to an ancient God. Unlike that film, "Mardi Gras Massacre" lacks any of the campy charm that made "Blood Feast" such a hoot. Lewis also knew he didn't have enough plot to pad it to a full hour and a half and made it last comfortable hour. Not director Jack Weis as he loads up "Mardi Gras Massacre" with so much filler that I nearly fell asleep on numerous occasions. Each killing is shown in its entirety and by the third time it grows very weary and boring. We also get plenty of filler with him stocking up on footage of disco dancing and cops beating the streets asking pedestrians questions. Mix all that with a low speed chase with a station wagon, shoddy editing, non-acting and boring point-and-shoot directing and your guaranteed a film to cure your insomnia. There's tons of female flesh present for people that judge a films quality on that aspect alone but "Mardi Gras Massacre" just a BAD movie, and NOT so BAD it's GOOD. There isn't one aspect of this film that I can recommend, it just plain and simple sucks. I knew I was in trouble when the title card on the film literally had the title painted on a piece of plastic held up in front of the camera complete with shadows of people moving behind it. A sure sign of quality! What kills me more is that Code Red DVD, one my favorite companies, put so much effort into releasing this hunk of crap. They did a tremendous job transferring the film from its last remaining 1" tape master source (all prints and negatives have been lost). Well I believe all films, including awful one's like "Mardi Gras Massacre", deserve to be preserved in the digital format even for historical context and for that I thank Code Red. I do appreciate them also including a beautiful horror host on eh DVD release that bookends the movie which eases the pain of the film experience. |
| User ReviewEddie DAnother nasty that begins quite scandalously. A naked woman being sacrificed during a religious ritual. It's all very gruesome and illicit. Afterward, it becomes tedious. They show the exact same kind of killing three times without much difference. By the end, we're bored and wondering how much longer we have to sit through this tiresome flick. I suppose it could be worse. Watching Toxic Zombies again would qualify as that. |
