Hanger Trailers

A horrifying tale of revenge that begins with a back-alley abortion, and ends with a bloodbath so vicious that it brings a new meaning to 'an eye for eye.

And for that, I give it a perfect 10 out of 10. Not a single person here on this site gave this movie a perfect 10? I am shocked. I guess everybody missed the point. This wasn't supposed to be a "Feel Good" movie that you sit down with your wife and kids and watch. Nor was it supposed to have good acting! This is a Troma style movie....plain and simple. The acting was perfect to FIT this film. This was not supposed to be any Award winning performances here...This is supposed to be, what it is! I don't understand why so many people complain about the movie in their review. If you didn't like the movie, you didn't have to watch it!Hanger does its job perfectly. I admit the movie is kind of depressing at first, but it does draw you in. The story is good, and the events that take place in this movie, are well, I'll let you watch and decide for yourself! I had to review this one when I was that not a single person gave it a perfect 10 rating. I think it truly deserves a perfect rating, as this movie is one of a kind. Never have I seen so many offensive things take place in one movie. Before this movie, my previous favorite Troma movie was UNSPEAKABLE...but this movie surpasses that in all aspects. This is a must watch for any Gore fan, or any fan of extreme cinema. The way it is done however, is comedic, and so, don't expect to be too disturbed by this one. This wasn't meant to be a disturbing movie at all, and that is obvious by all the comedy in the film. However if you like Comedy horror spoof gore films, you should love this movie.

In today's realm of horror films, one director who I'm not a particularly big fan of is Ryan Nicholson. A part of the newer generation so to speak, he's an effects man (whose worked on the infamous "August Underground" series) turned director whose movies seem to take a juvenile approach to shocking and offending people with nasty gore and all kinds of depraved behavior. In all honesty, I'm making his efforts sound much better than they actually are, when in reality, they are very difficult to watch, and not in the "this is disturbing" way. I mean in the "why the hell am I wasting my time on this bulls#!t?" way. Case in point: "Hanger", which may be his worst effort at trying to offend viewers yet.The film starts with a pregnant prostitute named Rose (Debbie Rochon), who becomes a hooker (remember, that's what they become when they are dead-or at least the show "Archer" says so) and has said fetus aborted via wire hanger. Well, said fetus actually survived, and years later, is a has grown up as "Hanger" (Nathan Dashwood.) He's also a bloodthirsty maniac out for revenge, and a man named "The John" (Dan Ellis) believes he's the killer mutant's dad.That's the plot to "Hanger" in a nutshell. In case you're thinking "that's it?", then you are not alone. In actuality, the movie is essentially an excuse for Nicholson and his cast to get away with all kinds of gross and all around perverse behavior, which would be fine if it weren't akin to a kid putting on a geek show to shock and offend us. Look, I'm all for shocking movies, but this tries way too hard to be shocking and all around disgusting, and it's clear that's all it has going for it. I know Nicholson is making something for a niche audience, but me? I don't have time for a movie that has things like an grotesque, racist Asian stereotype, tampon fetishes, graphic masturbation, and plenty of rape, mud and nastiness and nothing else. If trying to gross out and offend audiences in an attempt to be subversive is all you have, then get out of here, because I want nothing to do with you.It also doesn't help that nobody here-not even genre vet Debbie Rochon-does a good job here. The whole cast basically either mails in their performance, or goes over the top to the point of sheer banality. I know, these are all supposed to be unlikable characters, but come on, at least give us some decent performance amidst all the filth. Also, there's a Lloyd Kaufman cameo. Look Lloyd: I love ya man. I love what you've done for independent cinema, and I know that you are always willing to appear in someone's movie. That out of the way, come on man, can't you at least say "no" to appearing in a movie once in your life?Speaking of which, "no" is what this movie gets. There is no reason to see this piece of s#!t. I'm sorry, but all the filth and ugly behavior in the world does not make for an entertaining movie. In fact, it makes for a tedious and god-awful one. Seriously, this movie can go to hell.

Live Feed was a good gory movie, Gutterballs was better, so i was very excited to view Ryan new movie, Hanger. Unfortunately, it was a let down for me. Don't know why, maybe I'm getting old. Maybe. But Hanger was very boring, i watch the Uncut version, and yes, its hardcore gore, with very good bloody fx and very good looking naked bimbos but its just boring. I hope one day to watch it again and start loving it, that can happen. The first time i watched Live Feed i didn't like it and then it became a movie that i watched easily four times if not more. 4/10 for Hanger but all my support to Ryan Nicholson for always try to deliver the goods with extreme gore
