Review of Carnage

Carnage (1984)
6/10
Low-budget retro charm
3 September 2023
Yes, this movie is really bad. Awful, wooden acting. "Special effects" strings pulling at objects. An ax flies through the air and "chops off" a woman's head (but it looks like the ax was held offscreen and used to knock off a mannequin's head).

Yet Carnage has a definite Z movie charm.

I especially love that it's set in the New York City area. Watching this film, I'm wondering, was this house located in Queens, Staten Island, Nassau County?

I lived in the NYC area in the 1980s, and seeing the streets and cars brings back memories of my youth.

I saw this film on an old VHS tape. The images are washed out and grainy, yet that only adds to the film's low-budget, retro charm.
