Black Circle Boys

this is a great movie, one of my favorite independent films. Dont let the cover fool you its not a horror flick (although it has some disturbing scenes) its more of a drama, loosely based on a true story. Grap some shrooms and enjoy!

Many people would think I would be messed up in the head, but I saw this movie Black circle boys years ago. I wanted to own it, and they no longer carried it in the stores to rent, like they did at one point. I went on Amazon, and my boyfriend bought it for me when I found it. I thought I was the only one to see it, and I wasn't. My boyfriend's friend saw it years ago. Eric Mabius is so hott to me, and so is Kyle. I enjoy watching it. I don't believe in all that satan stuff, and I think it cruel what they do, but all in all I love it!

It's been some time since this film first appeared at Sundance at the end of the 90's but it does not lose it's power... Many will shy away from it's difficult subject matter. It is not a family film. Neither is "Twin Peaks" and that is an indisputable masterpiece. Watch the acting. These actors have much to offer. It's apparent that like most indie films, they need some script-tweaking but that not withstanding, it is worth your time...

I saw this movie on late-night Showtime probably 5 or 6 years ago, and I remembered really digging it. It is "based on a true story", that being the one of Ricky Kasso in a 1984 New York suburb. But it's a very sensationalized version of the story. The real Ricky was a drugged-out dumbass, who killed another dumbass for ripping him off, pretty simple. He listened to Ozzy and Maiden and had a few LaVey books and thought he was a Satanist. He tried to get all the people he knew into it, but they were only there for the drugs. Before he killed the dude he kept telling him to "Say you love Satan!" as he was stabbing him, like 21 times, then gouging his eyes out and smashing his head in. There were two other guys in the woods with him; one was his right-hand man, the other was some dude they didn't really know, who was just hanging out with them for the Acid he was on while he witnessed the murder (which led police to not believe his story).

In my opinion this movie is exactly what you would expect it to be. Sure it is vulgar, sure there are a lot of explicits throughout the movie and much drug use, but it is what it is. Scott's charachter is coming to grips with his friends death and looking to fit in and rebel where ever he can. It is a dark movie not suited for children, but if this is the type of movie that you enjoy and go into it knowing that it is dark, vulgar and morbid, and that is what you want to see at the moment then you get what you rented. No this is not what teens are like, nor is TX Chainsaw real either, the point is just sit back and either enjoy it or hate it, but I give it 4 out of 5 stars. It is what it is.
