Two words: ALICE COOPER!
Cocktail: Since Alice hasn't had a drink in over 20 years I'm going to go ahead and honor his abstinence from the "devil juice" with a nice, cold Bud tall can.
Spoiler Alert! Watch first. Read the following brain dribbles later.
As expected,
Monster Dog is campy horror gold! This "totes cray" 80's romp featuring none other than the bat masticating, duke of darkness, Alice Cooper, is certainly primed to please.
A.C. stars as Vincent Raven/aka himself(art imitating life or just bad acting?), a rock juggernaut with a mysterious past. Vincent and his band of randy skanks are on a road trip to his hometown to film a new music video. Before Vincent can make sweet lovin to the camera like he slipped it a spanish fly on prom night, there's an unexpected road block. The more-to-love Sheriff Morrison informs Vincent and his entourage of an attack in the town. The old creeptastic Sheriff regales them with his theory that pack of crazed bitch dogs are maulin the kind townfolk, but then segues into a story about how "Vincent" used to sit on his lap as a child... "Vinny" looks shifty as hell throughout the encounter and to throw everyone off his trail, peels out and hits a german shepard with the van. He then casually kills the german shepard in it's head with a heavy stone. All normal non-were-fiend behaviors.
The scene crescendos again when some old bloody dude jumps out of bushes and spouts off a cryptic warning about their imminent demise but, as skanks do, they it shrug off follow Vincent to his old digs. Once there, the groupie twats dine on sandwiches and Vincent goes around with a shotgun looking for the missing caretaker.
Blah. Blah. Vincent stumbles upon a book about werewolves. One of the hoes has a nightmare about A.C. as the monster bitch dog. More creepy old bloody dude gettin his perv on.
Denial. Weird family portraits...Vincent's peepaw was either super baked while they were painting the picture or he is a lycanthrope... Scary Monster Dog. Creepy gun toting Deliverance townies. Death. Blood. Dogs. Hysterical laughing/crying.
There was a delay in the voice track throughout the entire movie, which was fairly endearing. Overall, this movie was the epitome of camp. Terrible acting. Ridiculous looking "monster". It was the jam!
Worst: The shitty quality of certain props (ie the Werewolf Book)
Best: If you pass out drunk and wake up at the end, don't fret! This movie comes complete with a musical montage of the major scenes. It's like watching the whole movie in two minutes to a soundtrack of "Identity Crisis" by Vincent Raven!
See it!!!
