Viewing Notes

The third film of BTSNAT was a choice from Josh (@VHSIsTheTruth) who unfortunately couldn’t attend but picked one of our favorite movies last time, Banned. This film is also almost equally hard to find and Josh was gracious enough to give us a video intro that, without it, this movie would of been much more of a chore to watch. That’s not to say that in the end I didn’t enjoy it, I absolutely did, but it requires a certain level of explanation before delving into this mess.

Science Crazed is a shot on video horror movie that is made up of maybe 30 minutes of actual footage that is then stretched out into feature length. Because of this there are multiple repeated scenes throughout the movie. For instance, the shot of the killer, a man sized baby born just hours before via the evils of science, walking down the hall is used so many times that if you tried to drinking game it you’d be dead of alcohol poisoning before the first act was over. Then you have scenes stretched out by having the actors paused, faces half hidden in darkness, like a demented film noir, for what feels like minutes at a time, just staring at the cameras, deers in headlights.

So yeah, a man baby with a torn, bloody tshirt, jeans, work boots & bandage covered face roaming hallways, women doing aerobics for 20 minutes, a swimming pool scene and a detective trying to stop him. This movie is a huge mess but also one that in it’s endless cycle of repeat shots and long takes becomes nearly hypnotic.

I hear from Intervision that they’re working on a release of this. If you thought Sledgehammer was something else, wait until you see Science Crazed. I want to see this with an audience who’s brains will explode from the madness.
