Burning Moon (1992)

Option 1Can't Watch?

Wait 30secs. Movie still not playing? Click the "Can't Watch?" tab.

If the movie didn't load, it means you are being blocked by a security service we use. This can happen for a number of reasons.

Click this first

A new tab will open and a basic security check like a captcha will be performed. After completing the check, close that page and return here.

Refresh this page. Wait 30 secs. The movie should load and you can just hit play.



If it still doesn't play, Click here to watch the movie

The movie should now start playing in a new tab of your browser or begin downloading to your device. This option has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the movie player will not include these subs with this method.

The new system here has been designed keeping in mind even people with low internet speeds sub-8mbps. Even if you have a really bad connection, you should still be able to watch the movie without any issues if you:
Start the movie. Pause it. Wait for 30-45 seconds. Start playing again.

This 'Can't Watch' method really only works if it's your specific device/browser that's interfering with the player. There is no real advantage of speed here. Or if there is a temp network glitch or read lag from the server disk.

If you're still having problems, try using 'Incognito mode' in your browser. On iPhones, especially older ones, use Chrome instead of Safari. Might help.

IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check which is often automated.

AKA:

Plot – Spoilers:
The Burning Moon stars director Olaf Ittenbach as Peter, a disgruntled young man uninterested in work and living with his family whom he detests. After a run-in with his parents, Peter’s ordered to stay in and babysit his little sister. Hateful of the lockdown, he shoots up and begins telling his sister effed up tales designed to unnerve her. There are two tales here – the first one’s about a serial killer looking for love and the next one, a serial killing rapist priest.

The Burning Moon has some amateur acting going on – at times it looks like the crew brought in their family and friends who try hard to keep a straight face. Then there are those bit role actors who take their roles so seriously it’s almost comical – like the waiter at the restaurant when Julia and the killer are making small talk. But the odd thing with this flick is that every now and then it serves up an impressive and unexpected scene that makes it a worthwhile watch, especially if you’re into ’90s gore movies.

I like this one. Both stories are cool but I liked the 2nd one, “The Purity,” the best. 3 stars.

Ending effects were great. Reminder to repent and accept Jesus otherwise you will spend eternity in Hell with Ben Shapiro because all Jews go to Hell per the Bible. Gotta believe in Jesus.

It is not A Clockwork Orange. Funny in a low rent way. Worth a look.

It was fun to watch… to be honest I didn’t expect much form this movie but I really enjoyed the first story, the character of the murderer was complex and it was entertaining but I didn’t get the second one, the vision of hell was cool tho…

Some of the acting was awful and it took me out of the movie but there were a few nice gore scenes and the last 15 minutes were fucking wild and made it worth the watch.

The end of the second tale didn’t made sense I didn’t get if was supposed to be hell or some random clip, probably a pilot of Premutos.

This film may not win any awards because the acting is amateurish at best but it seems to be the style of Olaf Ittenbach who is the king of german splatter films, many of which are on this site. What he lacks in direction is offset by some great gore, especially in his depiction of hell in the last story. I enjoy these films because they are not try hards, what you see is what you get. Dard Divorce and Premutos are also good examples of this genre among many others. The comedic acting brings to it a certain charm that reminds us not to take this stuff seriously. I watch them to take a load off and not have to think too much and just have a chuckle every now and then.
