Plot summary

Following the brutal rape of a young woman by a gang of construction workers, a mysterious figure wearing a motorcycle helmet and driving a gold hearse begins hunting the perpetrators down. The masked avenger's weapon of choice, obviously, is a nail gun, with which he (or could it be she?) takes out the rapists one by one. Just who is this murderous vigilante?

As awful as it sounds

I heard that this was the last movie reviewed by the Cinema Snob on YouTube before he created his own website. That's the only reason I watched this stupid movie. You know, anyone can criticize a film for being overly violent. It's better to criticize something that's overly violent and also very stupid. The movie opens by showing a woman being gang raped. Wow, what a great way to start (sarcasm).

The entire movie is then practically nothing but random scenes that show a bunch of obnoxious people hanging out before getting killed by a nail run. Its wielder sounds like a Power Rangers villain. I know it's meant to disguise his real voice, but it's just stupid. The movie ends with the villain jumping off and dying. He just commits suicide for no reason at all. It's just a movie where nothing happens.

People are horribly killed with nails. At least it lives up to its title. There's really nothing else you need to know about the film. Apparently, this movie is somewhat well known seeing as how according to this website, it's been referenced in numerous other films. Just by hearing the title you can give this your own score. I don't recognize anyone in it and I'm glad I don't. *

Cheesy horror for the Handyman!

My type of rotten 80's cheesy exactly! "Nail Gun Massacre" is commonly known as one of the absolute lousiest slashers ever, a reputation it definitely lives up to, but I can't help enjoying every insipid moment of it! All the trademarks for a horrendous slasher are there: awful acting performances, 100% pointless and gratuitous boob shots, thoroughly lousy dialogues and the extreme gore! It's simply a wonderful film, or to use the biggest cliché of horror reviewing: they just don't make 'em like this anymore! The least you can say about Bill Leslie's and Terry Lofton's "masterpiece" is that it doesn't waste any valuable time. The whole point of the movie is already illustrated during the three-minute pre-credits intro, when a bunch of hillbilly construction workers rape a defenseless girl. Only seconds later, one of them is already severely punished for his bad behavior by someone dressed in an army camouflage outfit and operating the titular tool as a weapon. After the credits, which uses cheesy and hysterical laughter for music, the handy avenger cheerfully continues to nail people down, only now he/she says something incredibly stupid every time he fires his/her weapon. After a good twenty minutes, half of the redneck population is already dead, while the local doctor and dumb sheriff are still cleaning up the blood of the first victim. The pacing slows down a little then, since new moronic characters need to be introduced first. But, no worries, the gore only gets sicker, the sleaze only sleazier, and the killer's one-liners more retarded. Too bad the victims die BEFORE they get to hear his/her witty remarks. Also, the initial revenge motive doesn't stand anymore, as he/she is just randomly wasting horny teenagers like the average 80s slasher does. Yes, it's one of the worst of the decade, but guaranteed also one of the single most entertaining slashers out there!

Wonderful junk

What can one say about the movie that uses the tagline "It's cheaper than a chainsaw!"?

Written and co-directed by one-time The Dukes of Hazzard stuntman Terry Lofton (along with Bill Leslie), this movie was inspired by a story that he heard about a nail gun fight at a construction site. While the original script was eighty pages, the final shooting only used twenty-five of those pages and went from a serious film to a sillier tone, as Lofton figured no one would ever take this movie seriously.

At a construction site in east Texas - yay, the theme makes sense - six men assault Linda Jenkins. Months later, a camouflaged killer in a black motorcycle helmet hunts down the men one by one.

This is honestly the only slasher I've ever seen where a victim accidentally urinates on the killer, which you think would have had to have happened by now.

Beyond just the men who wronged Linda, the distorted voiced killer is pretty much indiscriminate about who he kills. Usually, it's people having sex, which seems to happen in every other scene. In fact, the director claims that John Rudder's wife divorced him over his scene with Shelly York as she believed they were really aardvarking.

There's an astounding scene in this where a cashier looks directly at the camera. That's Lofton's grandmother, who worked in the store they used for the shoot. She has the script near her - you can see it - and was really upset when she saw the movie and realized how much sex was in it. The violence, as always, is fine. Just don't have any horizontal mambo, please.

I guess there was construction all over East Texas at this time, which is certainly reflected by this film, which also has a nail gun fight for fun, because why not?

This movie has the longest takes, the most penises, the biggest freakouts, the most Dairy Queen product placement and the strangest synth score I've seen in a film. Normally just one of those things would be enough to make me fall in love with a slasher, but somehow, this one manages to get all of those into the same movie.

So yeah. I totally love this one.
