MBunge This honestly disgusting piece of tripe does have one interesting visual effect and one nice piece of gory makeup. It also has a cast that couldn't act their way out of a wet paper bag, a plot that's built entirely around the fact that the killer is limited by the length of his extension cord, dialog that sounds like the instructions for a TV remote after they've been translated from Japanese to French to English, a main character defined by as assload of drool and a weird homoerotic vibe in the 2nd half of the film where muscular guys keep taking off their shirts for no real reason.Jack (Aaron Gaffey) used to be a successful office worker, the big dog of the cubicles. Then he and his old high school buddy Mike (Kyle Yaskin) went to a punked out drug dealer to get high and Mike ended up dying of an overdose, shaking and foaming in a dirty alley while Jack was afraid to call for help. Unable to deal with that, Jack ends up a homeless addict with a weirdly infected growth on his left arm, spending his nights on a mattress as the watchman for an abandoned machine shop in the worst part of town.One night, a drug dealer that Jack owes money to busts in on him and gives him a drug cocktail of PCP, heroin and speed to try and kill Jack. Instead, it turns him into a paranoid murderer who grabs and electric jackhammer and starts killing everyone who comes into the machine shop. Egged on by a belligerent hallucination of his old friend Mike, Jack slaughters his drug dealer, the drug dealer's right hand thug, the guy who owns the machine shop, a guy who's buying the machine shop, the Eurotrash assistant of the guy who's buying the machine shop, the girlfriend of Jack's lesbian sister and most of a cleaning crew hired to clear out the machine shop for sale.This cheaply made splatterfest is oozing over with various bodily fluids, jam packed with people who just stand there and scream while a jackhammer is inserted into various parts of their anatomy and filled to the brim with Jack's drug-fueled delusions about the evil forces out to get him. The camera work and visual look of the thing is much more advanced than you'd expect, given the extremely low standards of the rest of the production. It's so poorly written and poorly performed, however, that this 89 minute movie feels like it lasts longer than a Presidential election season.With this sort of low budget, low brow, low rent cinema, you could spend hours making snarky comments about its multitude of deficiencies. I'd like to focus on the most obvious bad writing on display here. Only two of the characters Jack ends up killing appear in the first half hour of the film and when the rest are introduced, they might as well be wearing name tags that say "Hello. My name is Victim #whatever". The film spends far too much time telling us about Jack, especially when all we need to know is that he's a crazed druggie, and far too little time on everyone else in the story. The result is that The Jackhammer Massacre is like watching cows being herded through a slaughterhouse, getting killed one after the other as they move down the line. That's not an entertaining way to spend your time.This movie is legitimately violent and sopping in blood, saliva and other watery substances, so if that's what you like, you can find it here. Even if that's what you're into, though, you really ought to find it in better films than this. The Jackhammer Massacre is something you can only enjoy if you're drunk, stoned or dumb and watching enough garbage like this will make you so dumb, the only things you can do are get drunk or stoned.

Chris Mackey (guestar57) JACKHAMMER aka Jackhammer Massacre , Director's Cut. Written and Directed by Joe Castro. Starring Aaron Gaffey, Rachel & Rob Rotten and Joe Haggerty. This is an amazing ride, It has stuff YOU have never seen in Horror, Before ! The acting was all believable, The story very unique. There were tributes to Laserblast, Leaving Las Vegas and American Werewolf in London. Special effects were something like Davids, Cronenberg and Lynch. Let's discuss the relationship of a man and his Jackhammer. The tool looks real and makes hamburger helper out of a lot of victim's body parts. While watching it,Got a weird sensation of Déjà vu and it's because of Charles Band handling of Laserblast. This movie showed you don't pick on someone with Issues or Aliens will make Him KICK UR ARSE ! Some scenes,should be spoiler warnings; The dueling Land Of The Giants hypodermic appendages/ screw driver brain surgery/ and never unplug your extension cord, Too funny. Joe Castro and Steven Escobar should be given more money to make the film there effects can imagine, But JACKHAMMER is a good start. Oh,yeah, Great Anti-Drug message too, In case the MPAA is reading this, LOL.

3-D There is not one thing about this movie that is good.The first half of the movie focuses on this guy shooting up, and hanging out with half-naked men. The guy's friend overdoses and dies, causing him to continue his downward spiral into street drugs which completely turns him into a junkie.Suddenly, the junkie starts to hallucinate, and see his dead friend (who is still half-naked, even as a mirage) who tells him to kill people. The junkie obliges, and starts to murder random people who come into the business (that looks more like an abandoned warehouse) where he is working, since everybody in town somehow has a key to the front door.Despite the jackhammer being attached to an extension cord, the junkie is still able to chase people and kill them, easily. And, for some reason, when he is injected with what looks like radioactive waste, it actually gives him superpowers, and he regains all his stamina and is able to jump onto rooftops from the ground (after falling off of them).The acting is atrocious, the story is incredibly boring, the make-up was crappy, the dialogue was terrible, etc. basically, just everything about this movie was complete garbage.And, seriously, what was up with all of the half-naked men? I think every male character stripped for absolutely no reason at all. I'm glad they all got killed by a super-powered, jackhammer-wielding drug addict.

Dr. Gore *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* When one rents a movie called "The Jackhammer Massacre", it is not unfair to expect certain things. You certainly should expect a Jackhammer and hopefully a Massacre to go with it. I'm pleased to tell you that both of these things are to be found in the B-movie gorefest that is "The Jackhammer Massacre".A guy becomes addicted to drugs and jackhammers. He ends up in an abandoned building. Victims just keep marching inside the slaughterhouse. That's a good thing for him because his extension cord isn't long enough to reach the street. Soon many people will be jackhammered. Jackhammered mouths. Jackhammered arms. Jackhammered backs. Jackhammered heads. That's a lot of Jackhammer.So if you're dying to see a buffet of carnage via Jackhammer, rent this movie immediately for pure jackhammer satisfaction. Anyone else who is thinking of renting this and is not a drooling B-movie fan like myself, I advise you to step away from this video and run far, far away.
