Oh boy, who came up with this turkey? It begins with the suicide by cop of a deranged individual who is resurrected by his two nephews, well, his head is. The suicide was clearly planned in advance, this is all part of a nefarious scheme dating back thousands of years, a scheme whose completion requires human blood, and a few other things. What else do we have? Well, the villains of the piece are clearly not the sharpest knives in the drawer, the cops are moronic, but not all of them, one lady detective is too feisty for her own good and makes the mistake of entering the diner where the villainous brothers are based without a warrant or back up, a fatal mistake, well nearly fatal in her case, but there is no shortage of dead damsels herein. And a few dead guys.Is this film really a comedy? That remains to be seen, fortunately it has one strength, it is relatively short at around 72 minutes.

I know this is the 80's but really can this movie be any worse??? SO you have an evil Uncle who is into an ancient cult. He gets killed and his nephews dig him up and keep his brain in a jar. The jar then begins to talk and tell them how to revive the cult of Shitar. The nephews then have to kill repeatedly and keep the body parts as a stew. The acting is horrible..especially from the Police Captain and the male detective. The male detective is a horn ball and so OVER the top. The whole plot is so dumb that I can't believe I finished this movie. The final scene with the "blood feast" is so over the top and ridiculous. All I have to say is if you are sitting home and say.."I would love to see a stupid movie from the 80's with lots of gore" ..here is your movie. Just like my Summary title says WOW THIS IS BAD!

I stand somewhere in the middle on Blood Diner (1987). It has everything I want from a B-grade horror flick. Tons of T&A, really cheesy acting, a paper thin plot, over the top (almost comical) gore. But somehow it just can't shake it's cheap production values and almost retarded direction. Blood Diner was developed as a sequel to Blood Feast (1963) but ended up being a stand alone film with emphasis on comedy/dark humor. Anyone expecting a riveting, well acted film is obviously going to be let down. If you expect that kind of film from a movie titled "Blood Diner", then I hate you. Blood Diner is a cool flick to check out cause it features some really entertaining scenes. Such as a naked chick performing karate on her attacker, a topless aerobics class getting machined gun down, deep fried body parts, tons of 80's T&A, and a talking brain with eyeballs. It's a cheesy film that doesn't try to be anything but outrageous and comedic. Blood Diner is best viewed under the influence of a few brewskies. Check it out for cheap but don't spend $ on it.

Right from the git-go with a hilarious scrolling warning of violence to come, the viewer becomes aware that nothing in "Blood Diner" is to be taken seriously. What you get is an over the top dark comedy, that races through 88 minutes at a frantic pace. It all begins with Uncle Anwar's talking resurrected brain that lives in a jar. He commands two doofus nephews in a hilarious scheme to resurrect a Lumerian Goddess. Nothing makes sense, a topless aerobic's class massacre, a female cop named Jackson who looks like a Michael Jackson clone, a competitor diner owner who communicates through his ventriloquist's dummy, a death by falling stalactite scene, and it goes on and on. The film must be seen, as describing it is futile. "Blood Diner" also has an outstanding doo-wop soundtrack. Highly recommended of it's type. - MERK
