I'm a fan a horror movies and I really don't like to judge movies just on their budgets, but rather try to find redeeming qualities about the films. Slasher films aren't the cream of the, after all. DRIVE IN wasn't the worst slasher flick I have ever seen. It was a bit cheesey in parts and the acting was questionable, though I thought the lead actress/heroine did very well with what she had to work with. The story is about a mentally retarded boy named Billy who grows up across from a Drive In movie theater that plays nothing but B-Slasher flicks. Well, they finally go to his head one night and he escapes his house and goes on a murderous rampage at the Drive In. I am not a fan of extreme gore, but I do think that this is one thing that would have helped this film. The clips of the movies that the Drive In was playing were pretty gory, but the actual murders were not. We get off screen stabbings, strangulations, and *something* that happends at a Merry-Go-Round. It was too dark to tell. It was a good effort and definitely a good premise, which could have been pulled off a lot better in the hands of a more creative film crew. The ending was a little rushed too......Overall, if you are a die-hard horror fan, you might want to see this, but if you like the polished, big-budget SCREAM0-type films, avoid this like the plague. 5 out of 10.

A definite winner! Since the budget was very low, I must give praise to the people behind the budget. The music was okay, a bit campy in a bad taste of a way and the directing was quite clear. I guess it was watchable. I must say that the film was very camoy but in the end after knowing what the film was made for, i must say that it was amazing to have accomplished that much. It was al ow budget/ no budget film guys. Of course it was kind of campy, I mean it was a no budget movie, what would you expect-Godzilla. This film was good considering the budget. the people gave it their best and funded it privately, which was genius. No one was ripped off!

Okay, So we see this movie lurking in the corner of the store. Sitting beside the stinker CHILDREN OF THE LIVING DEAD we thought "How bad could it be?" Man were we wrong. At first it looks like a promo for the drive in. But it gets worse and worse. For one, there is NO gore in this movie. Aside from all the hilarious scenes from the amazing TROMA line of movies on the screen. The gore in this is minimal. And when people get killed it just shows gore on the drive in screen and some screaming. its lame! The story is terrible. Bad acting. Everything about this movie is bad. Steer clear! If you see it RUN AWAY AND RENT SOMETHING BETTER!

I'm almost positive that this was a film student's final project. Not in the least bit scary, the "killer" is a mentally retarded kid who kills with whatever's handy, a real estate sign, dental floss, a drive in speaker and a kid's merry go round. The acting is so bad, I'd call it memorized lines without any feeling. Not a movie, more a school project.
