keane11180 I am a huge Gore Hound, and read the reviews on IMDb and got this from netflix. I thought I was gonna see a movie that was so bad that it's good. I did not get that at all. The gore is so fake. The intestines are obviously pieces of rope because most of time you see them they are bright white. When they rip the girls' faces off (which is done rather easily I might add) there is a squishing noise that is obviously done with someone's mouth making the noise. I know this is low budget, but it's ridiculous that this even got released. You or I could make this film. I watched the interview with Nathan Schiff on the DVD. He said that this was meant to be a satire with a good script and decent acting behind it. However, he wanted John Smihula in it and he was going into the peace corps in two weeks. So, he had to shoot it in 2 weeks and cut most of the ideas he had and just make it a gore film. He wrote the film quickly and had to use people who had never acted before. Here's an idea Nathan, instead of building the entire movie around John Smihula, why didn't you get another actor who could do it,which would have given you more time to make the movie you claim you wanted to? So, contrary to what people say this is not a gore hounds delight, unless you like obviously fake effects with dolls in plain view. HG Lewis had better effects in Wizard of Gore in 1967.
lrc81 This is a extremely low budget movie as you can guess if you've watched any of Nathan Schiff's movies. If you're looking for a movie with a plot and good acting then you're looking in the wrong place. In Schiff's previous movie "Long Island Cannibal Massacre" he presented the viewers with a plausible plot but in this one it didn't come close to that. It's amazing that Nathan Schiff didn't get one single good actor, by good i mean, someone that could at least deliver one line convincingly, that could light up a cigar naturally but no, no such luck. There's plenty of gore but personally it didn't impress me, it's so unrealistic, so fake looking that you can't associate it with real blood, real skin, guts, etc. Watch at least one Nathan Schiff movie, just to get an idea about what he's all about, maybe this one isn't the best choice.
HumanoidOfFlesh Nathan Schiff's "They Don't Cut the Grass Anymore" is an extremely gory horror film about two Texas gardeners,Billy Buck(John Smihula) and Jacob(Adam Berke),who mutilate yuppies.The film mixes the gory imagery with broad comedy.The gore is pretty extreme and disgusting,but the special effects are really crummy,so it's hard to take them seriously.Basically various people are killed and dismembered in the variety of grisly ways."They Don't Cut the Grass Anymore" is much better than Schiff's debut "Weasels Rip My Flesh",so if you like 'em bloody give it a look.Here is my favourite gore scene:a young girl swallows a firecracker before taking a shotgun blast in her crotch!
face_of_terror PLOTTwo `yardworkers' Billy Buck and Jacob are disgusted by the upper society and they express their anger on Northern Yuppies in very different and violent ways..COMMENTSThis movie appeared on DVD on Feb. 24 and I immediately bought it. IMDB has only 2 (by far) reviews on this movie which I liked. Being a gore fan I was really exited about this movie. Itself the movie is only 70 min long though I guess it was enough to see the point director Nathan Schiff was trying to show.well.there's no point actually. This movie has a very poor plot , very poor acting and sometimes really silly effects (barby dolls and e.t.c). Though I liked John Smihula's performance. He plays Billy Buck , a big yard worker who along with his ugly friend Jacob mutilate all those Yuppies. The gore scenes are disgusting , am not going to deny it , sometimes really violent. Everything is shown in really close angle , so you get to see everything , the flesh , guts and everything else you need to vomit if u don't have a steel stomach , which is STRONGLY recommended. People are murdered in very different ways with tons of different weapons like chainsaw , hammer , dynamite , steel pipe and e.t.c. Sometimes you can easily see that they use a doll instead of a body . I guess due to financial problems , because this is a 'non budget' movie. Though it has a great ending. Everything is shot with a cheap hand camera and sometimes scenes are not fit in it (at least in DVD version). Though it has a great ending.DVD version has a good gallery and interviews with the film's director Nathan Schiff and John Smihula who played Billy Buck..plus a few trailers to some short animated parody movies (Attack of the Giant Turtle , Cocktails At Midnight).OVERALLAs a gorefest this movie is a treasure. As a Good Horror movie with so-so acting , so-so plot it's a total disaster..watch for urself..
