- What do you get if you combine Thanksgiving, American TV star Louise Lasser, killer '80s synths and some truly gruesome special effects courtesy of Ed French! Why, it's Blood Rage of course! Twins Todd and Terry seem like sweet boys - that is, until one of them takes an axe to the face of a fellow patron at the local drive-in. Todd is blamed for the bloody crime and institutionalised, whilst twin brother Terry goes free. Ten years later and, as the family gathers around the table for a Thanksgiving meal, the news comes in that Todd has escaped. But has the real killer in fact been in their midst all along?

Twins Of Evil - Blood Rage review by Spoons
Blood Rage is one of a handful of films in an elite group. What I mean by that is there were so many horror films in the 80s that were branded as nasties deemed obscene and subsequently banned, when in actual reality, most were garbage, laughable and never warranted the nasties tag at all. Blood Rage is one that manages to stand out from the dross. I missed this first time around and it really bought back that 80S VHS vibe and excitement you got when you hoped you was about to watch something shocking. This has all the right ingredients of what a video nasty should be. Sure it's dated and by today's standards it's relatively tame, but if you want low budget sleaze that punches well above it's weight then this little shocker hits the mark.
