Strangeland (1998)

StrangeLand is STRANGE
Well, they got the title right! This is the strangest movie I've ever watched. It wasn't scary, but just plain weird. If you're looking for movies for Halloween, don't waste your money. If you're in to s&m and pain, then go for it!

Okay, no more piercings for me!
Dee Snyder of Twisted Sister created and starred in this horror film. It is about a serial piercer and torturer whose on-line name is Capt'n Howdy. Briefly he meets teenagers in an on-line chat-room and invites them to party at his place. He then tortures them through piercings. He pierces things I never thought were possible! I decided to stop with my navel after seeing this! He gets caught by a somewhat lame cop. Lame, I say because he enters the twisted guy's house with no back-up, you can guess what happens. Capt'n Howdy serves one year in a regular jail and about 3 years in a mental institution. He comes out supposedly A-okay, but a bit nerdy and all his piercings and tatoos magically gone! He returns to his house, told to take his meds and he'll be okay. Well the town's people want revenge on him and the fun begins... You really get a feeling for the mind of a dark and twisted serial killer. However in this film, people get tortured and nobody gets killed, well, almost no one. There are some scenes that make you even feel sorry for Capt'n Howdy! I like horror films about serial killers, so this one interested me. Besides that Dee Snyder was in it. If you like heavy metal and Twisted Sister, you should like this one. It has its weaknesses with the plot, tatoos and piercings that go away and then reappear like magic and some bad acting, but overall it kept my interest, I was never bored and was on the edge of my seat the whole movie.
