merklekranz This is essentially a one joke movie. The catchy theme song "Psychos in Love" will stay in your head long after the film is forgotten. The killings are not creative enough and seem overly repetitive with the numerous slashings. The script is padded with Woody Allen type talking to the audience interludes, and overly talky scenes that do nothing to advance the story. "Psychos in Love" comes across as either a sincere homage to "Eating Raoul" or a total ripoff. Similarities abound, same squeeze toy squeaked by Robert Beltran, the frying pan bop on the head, reading outrageous newspaper headlines, and a plumber who wants the bodies for his own secret purpose. - MERK

Tromafreak Joe is a lonely bartender, just looking for a special lady who shares his loves, as well as his hates, namely a passionate hatred for grapes, and an uncontrollable love for a little hobbie Joe likes to call "cold-blooded murder". One night, Kate, a cute little Molly Ringwald lookalike manicurist walks in to Joe's life. Learning about Kate's hatred for grapes would no doubt, give Joe the courage to ask for a date, but once he discovers that she too is a psychotic killer... well, this just might be love. Psycho's In Love is the quintessential Horror-Comedy, truly a breath of fresh air to any lover of Horror, tongue-in-cheek humor, but most of all, B-movies, and I regret that it took me this long to hear about it. Perhaps a bit too silly and overly spoofish at times but one can't deny the enthusiastic, positive feel to the whole thing, along with a thick layer of dark humor that might remind one of something like Eating Raoul. Psycho's In Love is just a pitch-black good time, from beginning to end. Also, I can totally relate to Joe and Kate, I have no issues with grapes, or anything weird like that, but I've always had a phobia of bananas. Anyway, the fact that I never even heard of this movie before this year, and that it only recently got an official DVD (Shriek Show) release tells me exactly how unappreciated and underrated this lovable 80's exploitation gem really is, and I'm sure the cult will grow in time. I suppose You can always settle for Scary Movie 1 and 2, or even 3 and 4 if you're a child, there will be cheap laughs and shameless spoofing either way, but for something with a little more style, head out to Exploitation Country to find out what's so terrible about grapes, and what's so great about being a psycho... in love. 8/10

C G This movie appears to be a weekend project that the team did in their spare time. It was recommended to me by some friends in college and I did enjoy it.The title of the movie explains the plot, and there's really not much more depth to it. It is like a very unsophisticated and non-musical Sweeny Todd. Definitely in the genre of Scary Movie, but not a spoof on other movies, it basically spoofs itself.Technically the movie really is pretty lame. Nothing to write to mama about with regards to cinematography, sound, editing. Though the performances were pretty good, over the top and over acted, but fits the style of the movie well.I would recommend this if you are with a bunch of friends, looking for something to ridicule. Having a few brews would also help.

sexdwarf Ok, PSYCHOS IN LOVE is pure unadulterated silliness from start to finish. Not a moment of it is to be taken seriously and anyone who does take it seriously should seriously have their head examined. It plays out very much like a poor man's Troma film (if that's possible!) replete with lots of unconvincing gore and T & a shots. The two lead actors are a hoot and do their job very well. I especially liked Kate's character and how they made her up to look like Molly Ringwald. Plot is fairly simple: Two mad slashers meet, find they share a similar hatred for grapes (!!) and before you know it, they're headed for the altar! Amidst the romancing and killing, a cannibal plumber named Herman is on the loose. The sub-plot involving the cannibalistic plumber doesn't go far but then, you aren't watching PSYCHOS IN LOVE for depth and characterization. Herman comes to fix the psychopathic newlyweds sink, finds out they are killers, blackmails them and then. I had a fun time watching this thing. The jokes are extremely dark and subtle, and are almost always dead on. A real gem in a long line of slapstick comedy-horror. Recommended for connoisseurs of all things cheap and stupid.
