This terrible horror film pretends to tell a moral about internet chat rooms, but really it's a cheap C grade slasher flick.

Reviews for Strangeland
Snider's Captain Howdy is an appropriately scary creation, but the movie mostly lets him down.
After the agonizing torture that was endured I can safely make the statement that Strangeland is now and will be the worst film of 1998.
It's a disturbing, hopeless, irredeemable series of images that will scar you if you wander into it unprepared.
Twisted Sister's Dee Snider makes a movie -- a must-see, right? Wrong-o!
Painful to endure even by modern primitive standards, it's a freaky, funless wreck, intolerable in the extreme.
