This was a great movie. The only question I have is: Does the ending on the DVD end with the brain transplant taking place or does it have the extended ending showing the dad, son, and now pregnant Lydie Denier (with the mom's brain inside Lydie's body) on the tropical island living it up? The extended version has been seen on television but I have not seen the DVD and was curious as to how it ended. The extended version definitely adds a more complete picture as to what the family went on to do after the brain transplant. If anyone knows, please e-mail me ([email protected]) and we can compare notes. I like the subject matter and look forward to science-fiction becoming science.
... View MoreThis is a very creepy film with plenty of sex and horror in a very mysterious old old Gothic type dwelling and a basement that looks like ER. Kevin Hicks,(Thomas),"Seeds of Doubt",'96 brings a very good looking and sexy Lydie Denier, (Marie), "Children of Wax",'05 to meet his father, Jan Rubes, (Andreas),"Anthrax",01 because he intends marry this young gal. There is fireworks going on between Tom and Marie, they are making love all over the place and don't seem to ever stop for a breath of fresh air. Andreas is a brain surgeon and has some very strange methods of screwing around in the heads of his patients. The grandfather who has recently had brain surgery views Marie and manages to recover from his brain surgery rapidly and asks Marie if she will take all her clothes off and give him a kiss. (A real Dirty Old Man). This is a very scary film and with all this brain surgery going on, I kept thinking about how veteran Horror Actor, Boris Karloff would have handled this type of operation and Marie !
... View More"Blood Relations" is a truly bizarre horror film.Stunningly beautiful Lydie Denier is being brought home by rich Kevin Hicks.She meets surgeon dad Jan Rubes and together with the son they plan to kill dad and get a huge inheritance.But soon we learn dad and son are quite mad...The film is occasionally truly creepy and weird-the performances are very good and believable.There is almost no gore,but the film definitely works as an atmospheric Gothic shocker.Overlooked classic and a must-see for horror fans!
... View MoreThis is a masterpiece, a brilliantly crafted thriller, with highly sophisticated dialogues and a thrilling plot. The performance of Jan Rubes is fascinating: it is certainly the best maniacal character ever created. Too bad the movie was unnoticed by the viewer and ostracized by the critics.
