Rview wanted: Pieces
 
Saw this disc in a B&M for a whole $5 & I was thinking of picking it up. Anyone got this? I know to expect crap for quality but would still like any opinions or reviews.
I remembered thinking it was pretty funny when I saw it as a teenager but that has been a while. Thanks!

The transfer is sub-VHS.

I watched about three minutes of it and then sold it at the local used CD store.

I'll have to check my copy again, but I don't remember it being "sub-VHS" quality. Certainly it is one of the lower quality transfers put out by Diamond.

It was a weak slasher when it first hit theatres ...and it didn't age too well. But, for what amounts to a price of a rental, it isn't a bad deal... and you can always do, what I plan on doing...give it away to a needy horror fan. ;)

Now if Diamond could come out with "The Mutilator" that would be killer! (pun intended) Gotta love a film whose tagline is "By sword, by axe, by pick...bye bye". :D

First off, for this film the dvd looks much better than any previous release(If you think the transfer is "sub-vhs", try looking at a vhs transfer of this film, it is unwatchable). The film itself is so bad I enjoyed it. The dubbing is terrible, the acting incredibly bad, and the story has huge holes. All of that being said it's a great bad splatter film! The dvd itself isn't great, but well worth the $5.00
