Gargoyles (VHS)

I know this is an old VHS copy of an old movie, but the description said it "was tested". I bought it for a Christmas gift and just previewed it before wrapping it up. The tape jumps and the tracking is off for a the first 8 minutes and periodically during the tape. I wish I'd previewed it soooner!

thank you i like the movie ,,,,, its not as clear as i like for it to be but still like it lookinh for it for a long time

The first time I saw this was back in the late 70's. As a young kid into "Creature Features" , I was blown away. Nothing at that time was being made especially for TV like this. The classic demon look was really cool.
The cast was great. Bernie Casey scared the hell out of me as the leader of
The Gargoyles. Great job Stan Winston ! The other characters were believable.
Veteran actor Cornel Wilde and up and coming Jennifer Salt and Scott Glenn were great. I even got a kick out of old "Uncle Willy".

When skeletal remains of a mythical nature are discovered in the desert, an old timer calls in a well known college professor (Wilde) who brings along his daughter (Salt) as an assistant. From that point on scary things begin to happen. They enlist the help of some "Dirt Bikers" including Glen along with local authorities. Will they survive the attack of the Gargoyles. Watch and see.

This movie has a great story as well as a great back story (intro),Gargoyles waking up every 600 years. A must see for any horror/supernatural enthusiast.
I think this movie beats out most of the hack and slash films of the 80's.
Intelligently done. Props to the director and production staff! One of the two best movies of the 70's.

I loved this movie when I was a child. I was disappointed when I received the video because A. It took a long time to receive it and B. It was a poor quality copy. I will continue to purchase from e-bay but for right now I am still disappointed regarding this purchase.
