[.ca] Jill the Ripper (Widescreen) (ISBN 0767850661)



Pretty Good Film:
While some are trashing this movie cuase its not your typical Dolph film, I'd tell you to rent it anyways--or buy it--like I did. Its not an action flick, so dont think you'll see Dolph with big guns. Its a mystery, so sit back and enjoy. The killer is pretty much known from the get-go, but its still a good film, and Dolph is getting so much better as an actor. Rent Masters of the Universe and then watch Jill The Ripper. You'll see an amazing difference. Kudos to Hickox and Dolph for a job well done.


It's as stupid as it sounds:
This is one of those direct to video movies that you will pass over, and with good cause. This mess of a film is so stupid, sexually tame, kinky extreme, and plot pointless that it's a miracle it was even made. I'm sure the book it was based off of was ok but other than that you really must question why bother. Dolph Lundergen plays a guy who returns to his home town because his wealthy brother has been murdered. His wife seems upset and the mother is devasted. the movie takes place in the 1970's so they try to have this old movie feel to it. Try again pal. This movie could of easily of have taken place in 1999 and you would have never known. Any ways Dolph wants to find the killer. So he tracks down some of his brother movements and after viewing this video of his bro in a kinky sex act he goes into the under ground sexual organization. Eventually he finds the killer but you will probably be asleep by then. Don't waste your time.


I think Jills just ripped me off!:
Being a BIG fan of director Anthony Hickox, when I saw this movie was available on DVD, I immediately purchased it. However, gone is the trademark Hickox style, eschewing his past "Waxwork" style in favour of a more downbeat work. I secretly hoped it would move along like his movie "Payback", but no, it just ambles along from one scene to the next. However, Hickox's commentary is great. . . funny and sincere. Dolph Lundgren seems to be lost without a big gun or someone to hit, and one only wishes that Hickox would let him loose with a bazooka or something. The DVD is fine, with a crisp picture, and Hickoxs' direction is as stylish as ever. I hope that he will embrace the DVD format further, as I would like to see commentary's on all of his movies. Now, do I buy the other Hickox/Lundgren movie "Storm Catcher"... only time and my bank balance will tell . . .


Dolph Lundgren does have acting talent.:
Dolph never was a good actor only Blackjack and The Punisher were his moments of good unless he played a villian. but with Jill The Ripper he is the only reason to see such a bizarre film. Lundgren and Brett have on screen chemistry.


DOLPH LUNDGREN'S WORST MOVIE EVER!:
DOLPH LUNDGREN SINKS TO AN ALL-NEW LOW IN THIS MOVIE. THIS TIME, DOLPH PLAYS A FORMER COP WHO RETURNS TO HIS OLD TOWN IN THE 70S TO INVESTIGATE THE MURDER OF HIS BROTHER. DOLPH GIVES WHAT HAS GOT TO BE THE MOST WOODEN PERFORMANCE OF HIS CAREER IN THIS ONE. ACTIONLESS PLOT REALLY KILLS THIS ONE. EVEN THE BIGGEST DOLPH LUNDGREN FAN WILL HATE THIS MOVIE. NOT EVEN WORTH A RENTAL. SAVE YOUR MONEY INSTEAD.
