I just watched this little rare horror flick, well-detailed in my new favorite book ever Nightmare USA by Stephen Thrower. These crazy film students kidnap their idol, recently deceased Christopher Lee-esque horror star Conrad Ragzoff. His wife contacts him during a seance and orders him to kill his kidnappers, though he’d already killed several people while he was alive, so he probably didn’t need too much motivation. First half is really good, budget and pacing and some believability issues make the second half kind of boring. Some fun kills, a floating coffin and some cool spontaneous combustion. Not really worth the energy of finding it but it’s Netflixable if you so desire. Was released on DVD as “Frightmare” by Troma, and the disc is awful, with some of the worst sound recording I’ve ever heard on any DVD release.
