After seeing the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, I can't believe that Tobe Hooper made this kind of absolute rubbish. I'm a big fan of zombie movies in general, but this was ridiculous. Zombification inducing fungus? A mongoloid with a cleft palate that feeds people to an evil well? Of all ways to kill a zombie, if you could even call whatever these people become zombies; they certainly aren't zombies in any traditional sense, but of all ways to dispose of them, SALT? I could write a better movie in my sleep. The acting was bad. Let me say that again. The acting was REALLY bad. The cinematography was horrible. The dialogue was inane, clichéd, drivel. The music added absolutely nothing to the movie. Tobe Hooper has done much, much better work in the past, and hopefully he will do much, much better work sometime in the future. As for this movie, I could have spent it took to watch it trying to decipher the cryptic messages left in my regurgitated alphabet cereal.

The plot of "Mortuary" goes like that:single mom played by Denise Crosby of "Pet Sematary" fame and her two children,a teenage son and young daughter move from Chicago to a small town.Crosby has just finished Embalming School and has leased a rundown old mortuary Fowler Brothers Funeral Home.Her son finds a job at a local diner and quickly learns the story of Bobby Fowler;a boy so hideous his parents kept his face covered with a 'death shroud'.In the early 60's,the Fowler parents are murdered and the boy missing and was presumed dead,but the myth is he's alive and living in the catacombs under the graveyard and funeral home.First of all I can't believe that Tobe Hooper,the man behind horrifying horror classic "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" directed this mess.The script is laughable,the comedy elements are stupid and unnecessary and finally there is no suspense.The minimal amount of blood doesn't help either."Mortuary" fails even as the parody of campy 80s horror.Avoid this crap like the plague.Sorry Tobe,try harder next time.

It was a horror movie and for those looking for movie nirvana go away. It was well done and the plot didn't jump around. The whole thing had a H.P. Lovecraft feel and even had a semi stolen quote from the master himself. This was worth a watch for any die hard horror fan. Definitely not a buyer unless it is 5 bucks but definitely a renter. It did as someone said have a chainsaw massacre feel at the end but having an accual creature gave it a super natural feel. The zombies were well done and they would truly make Tom Savini proud. Although I'm not sure why the star trek captain was in it, it could have been better cast. But she still did a good job especially towards the end of the film.

I'm giving this movie a two only because I like Dan Byrd and I've always liked Denise Crosby, but they are really slumming it with this movie. The movie is full of old and tired horror clichés. The old story of the poor, deformed, abused kid supposedly murdered but still living....somewhere on the grounds. Beyond that, there wasn't much of a story. A family moves into a falling apart old house with a tiny cemetery on the grounds. The mother is a mortician. A weird crawling black fungus creeps about the house and eventually infects both the living and the dead. But, the movie drags so much, I was ready to stop watching after twenty minutes. No one but Dan Byrd's character is even likable in this movie. There's not much of a story. And the zombies are so underused, you'll be asking, "what zombies?" Avoid this movie, there's not much to see with it.

This movie was CRAP. The previews led you to believe it was something worth seeing but it wasn't. The acting was terrible on so many levels. The only relatively decent acting came from the mother but shes been in the business a while so we can only expect it from her. There really was no solid plot it kept jumping around. Reminded me a lot of something a 5th grader would try to write for a creative writing assignment. One minute there's some legend of a mutated child/man who haunts graveyards the next there's black ooze thats stealing peoples souls! It was hard to keep track of exactly what was going on. And does no one in this town die of natural causes? I mean they stated it was a small town and with their death rate they should be off the map in a week. Also when the living people were taken over they could still talk. The dead were just... mentally incapable it's like they lost their brains when they died! The ending left so many unanswered questions. It was like they just went "O crap we've run out of money in our budget we have to end it now lets slap together something really dumb!" What happened to Rita? What about the creepy guy with the cane? Why in the name of all that is sane in this world would someone move into a house like that in the first place. What about the diner chick? Does she survive? O and where did the sheriff's car go? You mean to tell me no one noticed it was there? This movie was truly one of the worst movies I've seen in a LONG time. It puts shame to the horror genre. The only good thing about it was that cracking jokes at this was so easy a 5 year old could have done it, and that made it fun to laugh at.

This is the worst movie I ever seen in my life,The only bright spot in this movie was Courtney Peldon, the story line is hard to follow, and being in the funeral service myself, I know they don't let unlicensed people go around embalming bodies or running funeral homes, no one embalms by using a book in front of them, you have to go thru school, then there is a internship to serve, after that you get your license, and what is with the green embalming fluid in the machine she was using? If this is the kind of movies this guy directs, then I will make it a point to never see another movie he has directed, I cant believe that he read over the script, then said, sure I will direct this low budget awful film, again, the worst movie I have ever seen in my entire life.

Why all the bad reviews for Tobe Hoopers Mortuary?It is certainly not as bad as some viewers have made it out to be and if they were to watch it again they would see so.How does one describe Mortuary?Entertaining.Like an episode of Goosebumps on acid. A family Played by Denise Crosby,Dan Byrd,and Stephanie Patton, who has just lost their father lease an old Mortuary with a graveyard to boot.They fall in with some of the local teens Alexandra Adi and Rocky MarQuette to learn that they're new home has a dubious past.As well as a creeping(lovecraftian) growth that brings the Dead to life. The acting is well done by most of the cast.Dan Byrd captures displaced youth well.Stephenie Patton is engaging as the little sister.Adi looks very nice.Marquette's character has a nice twist.Its always nice to see Denise Crosby as the mom in a movie again.She gets to go over the top.Lee Garlington has a nice bit as Adi's Hippie mom. The Zombies certainly look dead enough.There is some nice creepy atmosphere and sense of dread.There are also a few jump scares that work.There are even some touches of Hoopers old Chainsaw to some of the underground sets. What really cold-cocks viewers is a totally unnecessary-shock ending(I think that where the bad reviews started)That drags the down the charm and creepiness that Mortuary had built up.Its like a kick in the stomach.The movie could have done without the Bobby Fowler subplot.It has been done a thousand times. Mortuary does not break any new ground in horror movies or Special Effects.But it was the cast that made it watchable,and it is clearly a Hooper film with his touch. (Note.This may be updated for when the movie is released on DVD)

The widow Leslie Doyle (Denise Crosby) has just lost her husband and moves with her teenage son Jonathan (Dan Byrd) and her young daughter Jamie (Stephani Patton) to a mortuary in a small town in California that she has bought with the intention of starting a new business, practicing her knowledge as mortician. When they arrive, Leslie realizes that she was lured by the former owner, Elliot, and that the decrepit Fowler Brothers Funeral Home was completely abandoned and with problem with the septic sewer. While Leslie tries to improve and clean the place and start embalming corpses, Jonathan is informed about the legend of Bobby Fowler, the deformed son of the Fowlers. Meanwhile a weird substance attacks people, transforming them in zombies. Mortuary has a very scary atmosphere, with an old cemetery and a nasty and creepy house. The make-up, special effects and soundtrack are also very good. Unfortunately, the flawed screenplay spoils a promising horror movie. There are lack of explanations about Bobby Fowler and the creature that transforms the locals in zombies, and lots of mistakes. For example, in addition to the goofs listed in IMDb, the sheriff's car parked in front of the funeral house simply vanishes when he is attacked. My vote is six. Title (Brazil): "Mortuária" ("Mortuary")
