Blood Beat is beyond strange. I am often a fan of strange, even if it's a low budget slasher film from Wisconsin about a Samurai ghost linked to a girl's orgasms. It is almost too strange to not be endearing but there are many flaws which hinder it from being AWESOME.
There are scenes where the classical music is drowning out the dialogue and it is quite irksome. In one scene Dolly is speaking with her mother, IN THEIR MINDS and we are left in the dark. It is very hard to know what is going on in a movie when two of the actors on the screen are just looking at each other with expressions of wicked constipation. We…

there are a few thing i liked quite a bit about this movie: three women who can shoot psychic power out of their hands, the constant battle between classical music and threatening synths, and all the vcr effects. everything else is a big question mark.

I'm running scenarios through my mind trying to figure out why this movie exists.
#1 "Hey Fabrice check out what I found in the attic it's a dang 'ol samurai clothes! What should we do with it?"

O K . . .
A young girl goes with her boyfriend to visit his family for the first time over christmas in rural Wisconsin. Once there she meets his mother who takes an instant dislike to her, sensing that she knows her from somewhere. Pretty soon people starts to die and you know where this is going...
No, actually you don't.
People start to die, yes but they are killed by a ghostly samurai who only shows up when the young girl has an orgasm.
And then everything starts to look like an 70s episode of Dr Who, filled with flashing lights and laser effects. I kept expecting Tom Baker to pop up with his giant hair and googly…

So weird, so distinct, so thoroughly insane; a primal scream from deep within the recesses of a damaged mind.
Long detours in the woods; dead bodies dressed in flannel and trucker hats; exploding telephones; psychic painting; an unexplainable clusterfuck of a climax. Its hazy, warped visuals are in turn ugly and angelic, introducing cartoonish special effects into a dusty, shag-carpeted '80s dreamscape. An immediately recognizable setting so natural and unadorned becomes otherworldy. Performances are stilted, amateurish, yet real enough to believe.
This is another language - beautiful, strange, indecipherable. A message from one human to the rest of the world, bounced from satellite to satellite, garbled, broken, and immensely important.

A mix of THE SHINING and POLTERGEIST as if they were directed by Barry J. Gillis. It can't be explained, it can only be experienced.

This one was pretty weird. Woman gets possessed by an evil samurai and starts killing people. A bit of a slowburner with an obnoxious score of loud classical music.
Also had an Arty vibe which sometimes interfered with the consistency of the film. Still unique enough to grab my interest.
The YouTube rip was pretty gritty so I'm curious to see what Vinegar Syndrome does with their transfer.

Low budget possession horror filmed in Wisconsin with Claudia Peyton taken over by the spirit of a samurai. She freaks out at a woodland cabin and folks are threatened with a sword and zap magic while classical music boxes in your ears. Some supernatural gore and flying food can't save it.

October Horror Challenge 2016 Movie #55
Without hyperbole, probably the most fucking bizarre slasher I've seen. Whenever a girl gets to makin' her "O"-face, ghost samurai comes out to slice Midwesterners. Without a fucking bit of it being explained. Then some psychic shit happens. It's hard to hate on something that's so entertaining purely through it's lack of logical thought.
