"Fun weird lowbudget horror. . not perfect but still a fun flick"
"Blind buy purchase during the last VS sale. I don’t like bashing movies as it takes a lot of effort to create a movie from start to finish, good or bad. Well, this one is just bad. The transfer and packaging are nice though."
"A fun film on a budget with great slipcover artwork. The scratched film filter was a bit overused, not many special features."
"Not enough of a "joke/parody" to carry the full film and the scratched film look got irritating very quickly"
"Cool artwork, can't say the same about movie, cool ide though"
"No, it's not actually a Troma film, but it has the overall feel of one. Very campy and sleazy low-budget horror. Recommended, if you like your cinema trashy, and don't mind a bit of questionable acting."
"The Disco Exorcist is exactly the kind of gloriously sleazy, over-the-top exploitation movie that feels right at home in the Vinegar Syndrome catalog. This wild blend of disco culture, supernatural horror, sex comedy, and gore has absolutely no interest in subtlety, and its unapologetic excess is a huge part of the fun. The story is intentionally ridiculous, but the film makes up for it with colorful characters, outrageous situations, practical effects, and plenty of lurid atmosphere. The disco-era setting gives the movie a wonderfully tacky visual identity, while the soundtrack and outrageous performances help maintain its trashy energy. It occasionally drags and the humor can be hit-or-miss, but there is enough creativity and sheer weirdness to keep things entertaining. Vinegar Syndrome’s Blu-ray treatment makes this obscure exploitation gem look and sound better than it probably ever has, while the extras add plenty of value for genre fans. A filthy, funny, and gleefully excessive blast of retro sleaze. Four stars."
"Great extras on this release and transfer, like the attempt at 70s films parody"
"Writer Ted Geoghegan and director Richard Griffin deliver a fun horror throwback comedy flick with inventive special fx, plenty of gags, and a little smut. The cover art is fantastic and the film looks great."
"Not what I thought it was going to be. Little raunchy. 5 stars for presentation."
