3/5 Interesting But Not Brilliant
  by Thomas H. Fields (Washington, DC)
Joe Spinell is in good form here, playing a celebrity-obsessed misfit who fantasizes about making it big in film and with his favorite star. I liked the street scenes from Cannes and the cameo appearances. However, it's ultimately not too different from others of this genre (see The Stunt Man and The Player). Spinell was better in Maniac.

4/5 The film itself outstanding, the transfer not so much...

Insane guerilla filmmaking at its finest!

I'm still not over the last Troma release I reviewed, "Getting Lucky", but that's an ENTIRELY different review which I encourage you to check out for your self. In terms of "The Last Horror Film" I must give it 4 stars only because the print and transfer are relatively poor (the rarity of this film should be considered, however). That said, if you want to enjoy this film--which IS highly enjoyable--I suggest you purchase this DVD as it is unlikely that an improved version will be available for quite some time.

In terms of the film proper, it may even outshine "Maniac" as a vehicle for Joe Spinnel's acting prowess and its representation of maniacle obsessiveness. The suspence is coupled with a film-within-a-film playfulness that may have provided inspiration for films such as Wes Craven's "Scream." Stylistically, this film shines as it plays on the conventions of the traditional slasher films while adding its own iconography (you must see Spinnel dressed in drag or touching himself with the starlet's image projected on his bare chest to understand) ...

Those who enjoy finding that hidden gem should flock to this title. It's very difficult not to have fun watching this film. It's also nice to have the option of skipping Llyod Kaufman's introduction, which provides nothing more than boring fluff. The extras are sufficient with an introducing "conversation" with one of Spinnel's closest friends, trailers, and a director's commentary.

Fans of 70s/80s cult films should add this film to their collections, just remember that the DVD transfer/print is below average.

2/5 Thankfully This Wasn't The Last Horror Film
  by Ben Wasden (Uriah, AL)
I bought The Last Horror Film without having even seen it first, because of the good reviews. I'm a huge slasher movie fan, so usually if others like a slasher movie I will too. Sadly, I didn't like The Last Horror Film. It has three things going for it: Caroline Munro, the awesome music, and a surprise ending. Everyone else from the script to the low body count is a bore. If you want to see a fun slasher movie starring Caroline Munro, rent Slaughter High instead.

5/5 Amazing, get it get it get it!

Holy S#!t this movie was fantastic! Everything about it was top notch great directing, brilliant performances, and fantastic score! There's nudity, gore, and an epic story about a stalker/ fanatic!!
And something I have to mention is that THANK YOU TROMA for finally figuring out how to release a DVD! Features are amazing! I can cream on and on but it won't make any good, buy this film now and experience it for yourself! You won't regret it, seriously.
