The Immortalizer (1989) Reviews
Hard to find for a reason
THE IMMORTALIZER was, uh, interesting. It certainly didn't kill me during its hour and a half duration, but it didn't impress me much either. A group of kids are abducted in an alley by musclehead mutants (in a scene featuring cinema's least convincing head crushing sound effect) and taken to a fancy house in the suburbs. Here Dr. Divine and his team are performing brain transplants for his rich old patients so they can have young bodies again. Hey, this was quietly remade with a big budget a few years later as FREEJACK! Who knew that when you transplant an old person's brain into a different body that their new voice will sound exactly like their old voice? With all this talk of pineal glands and the use of a glowing green serum, you can almost see visions of FROM BEYOND and RE-ANIMATOR dancing in the producers' heads. But the production literally doesn't have the guts to pull it off. I've never understood why, when someone is making a low budget horror film, that they don't pack it to the edge of the frame with gore. The acting is uniformly terrible, with the only good performance coming from Clarke Lindsley as the assistant Dr. Price. He has a nice evil laugh. The only other thing of note about THE IMMORTALIZER is that it features lots of old people doing their own stunts. Seriously, most of the cast takes some serious bumps for old folks.
Waste of film
I just saw this movie on Flix after timer-taping it. I grew up watching F Troop and had a major hard for Wrangler Jane so I was shocked, literally shocked, to find out after seeing this film that the degenerate homicidal nurse was Melody Patterson, who looks pretty good but also looks completely different and is unfortunately poorly photographed. I would never have guessed it was her in a million years. What the hell is she doing in a picture like this? I agree with the guys here that the movie lacks what it's pushing. No sex, no gore, no tease. It's also a remake of the Atomic Brain aka Monstrosity (1964 or thereabouts). Most of the action is tedious; the main character spends enormous amounts of time running around the crazed doctor's house and basement, and the neighborhood in general, or being roughed up by the cop, all of it boring and time-filling. Now if the Italians would have made this, half the film would have been the Slingblade/Uncle Ernest/Jack Elam henchman fondling the unconscious nude girls. But you only get that for 20 seconds.
I WANT HER
Scientist use Hulk Zombies to kidnap young adults to be used for brain transplants for old people. The film followers two double dating couples. The production was campy and at best silly fun. However it is dated and the humor isn't there to make it a classic. Playboy Playmate of the Month September 1986 Rebekka Armstrong provides the nudity. No swearing. Implied sex. The newer release of the film cuts out the goon groping scene.
Not Bad...............
i have to say that despite what other reviewers have said about this movie i liked it . it has a decent plot and the acting isn't that bad . The movie is once again about a group of teenagers who become kidnapped and then taken to a house where there are doctors who perform brain surgery to switch the brains of the young and old 'to give the old eternal youth 'But if there surgery fails the victims turn in to flesh eating monsters . The special effects in this movie are decent and has a fair amount of violence ' I recommend watching this movie if you liked THE SURGEON (1995) ' RE-ANIMATOR (1985) or DR GIGGLES (1992) . I rate this movie a 8/10 . this movie has only been released on VHS and LASER DISC so if your local video store still has it i recommend renting it'
Man oh man
I just saw this movie this morning and oh my GOD it was horrible the story was so bad until I had to continue to watch it just to see what was going to happen next. The acting was horrible also it look like the actors was standing around waiting for each other to say there lines. And if they forgot their lines the other actors will say it for them. The only one in the whole entire movie that could act was the noisy neighbor across the street. Of course they had to do away with her. And you never seen what happen to her body later on. The movie quality was so low budget until I could've made a better movie off of my entire milk money at the 99 cent store. But if you wanna great laugh go buy it. If it cost more and 2 cents please call the police and let them know your being rob.
