Tromeo & Juliet, a review by addicted2dvd

Tromeo & Juliet
All the body-piercing, kinky sex, and car crashes that Shakespeare wanted but never had! Join Tromeo (Will Keenan) Juliet (Jane Jensen), and Lemmy of Motorhead as they travel through Manhattan's underground in search of climatic love, violence, and the American Way. Tromeo & Juliet is thrust forward with hyperkinetic performances and a cutting-edge soundtrack. This DVD Director's Cut of Tromeo & Juliet has been lovingly digitally mastered by director LIoyd Kaufman and the Troma Team and contains extra footage you can't see anywhere else.

My Thoughts:
OK... as requested by our good friend Jimmy... I pulled out my copy of Troma's Tromeo & Juliet

Demons, a review by Jimmy

Title : Demons (1985)

Overview
Two girls are given free tickets to a special screening in an isolated movie theater. The film, a violent horror movie, exerts a malevolant influence over the theater patrons who are transformed - one by bloody one - into a horde of crazed demons.

My Impression
It's time for some Italian fun  I will not say that this movie is really profound, but this is a fun one with a couple of jump scare. This is almost a zombie movie, but the protagonists are Demons and honestly those demons could send a crying zombie to his mother in 2 seconds. I like the movie in a movie concept and I would have like to watch this in a real cinema. The effects are great and, at least for the 2 first transformations, we feel the pain of the victims. The hard rock score kick ass, the motorcycle escape at the end on the song "Fast as a shark" by Accept is a classic scene. Sure the story is silly and the dubbing atrocious, but all the Italian movie of this period are like that. Anyway how to not like the guy who dub Bobby Rhodes? Impossible to be more a pimp stereotype than this

Death Note anime/manga/movies comparison, a review by Tom

Death Note
Season 1.12 Love

Light joins the investigation on request of L. L shows him the tapes and Light confirms his suspicion that there is a second Kira. L asks Light to write the response as if he were the real Kira. Kira 2 responds to this message and talks about death gods and the eyes, giving the investigation team for the first time the hint that it is something supernatural. Ren, the death god of Misa, tells her how he/she came to the death note that Misa now possesses. Misa founds out about Gelos, the death god you died because he was saving her from an assault by killing the assaulter. Which is not allowed for death gods and he dies.

This episode covers chapter 26 and most of 27. The first two chapters of the fourth volume. Again it is fairly similar.

The movie contains the story about the death god Gelos.
