This has to be the most stupid movie that I have ever seen. I know this had to be made as a joke. Bad so called accents and badder so called acting.

Look, I wouldn't recommend this film to anyone that is in for a good scare. This film has absolutely nothing to offer. The plot sucks, the acting is dreadful and there isn't a single death until halfway into the picture. C'mon what kind of serial killer film is that? Maybe they were trying to explain the reason behind the why the guy was murdering folks. But then again, who freakin' cares. We just want to see the blood and naked women. If you are in search of a good serial killer flick, then I recommend The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Halloween, Friday the 13th, etc. Trust me guys, there were plenty of other horror films that were put out that can top some trash like this. Once again, STAY AWAY!!!.2/10

Just watched this movie an hour ago, maybe I should watch it some more to digest it properly, but what the hey; here's what I think. This film is said to be the most faithful to the story of Ed Gein, called here Ezra Cobb. Raised by a dominating mother, Ezra is completely socially retarded and when his mother passes away Ezra's whole world crumbles. He digs her up and pretends she is alive but as if that weren't insane enough he has to get her some companions, dig them up as well or even provide fresh corpses. While all this is going on, nobody seems to suspect Ezra despite him leaving clues (mostly comments) all around him. Alan Ormsby's script is nothing short of superb. Seeing the black humor behind Ed Gein's story, he incorporates it with great success. Apparently Gein showed his collection of corpses to children and told townspeople that he was more or less responsible for these actions, nobody believed him, quite simply thinking of him as eccentric and probably with a weird sense of humor. Ormsby (who also shares co-directing billing here) includes many downright hilarious scenes where Ezra (brilliantly played by Blosom) admits to his doings and isn't taken seriously. The nasty bits are also all too well depicted. The movie is gruesome with some startling gore and some very disturbing moments showing the extent of Cobb's mania. When showing off his skills to a soon-to-be victim his collection of "man-made" objects, like a banjo made of human flesh... well, I just get the creeps. But nothing packs more of a wallup than the final scene where Ezra hunts down his last victim. This is shocking stuff indeed, and it's all true. Orsmby, who also penned the excellent Deathdream, cooks up one hell of a story depicting one of the most notorious maniacs ever. By focusing largely on the humorous aspects the story the film is all the more memorable, but it's not for the squeamish. I think it could be a little longer though, 80 minutes sure go by fast.

Deranged is an adaptation of the same story that inspired such horror classics as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Psycho and Silence of the Lambs, among others. It's the story of deranged psychotic Edward Gein, only in this film the story is a lot closer to how it actually happened than in any of the classics that it influenced. Deranged is a film not for the feint hearted. Shot on an extremely low budget of just two hundred thousand dollars, the directorial team of Jeff Gillen and Alan Ormsby have created one of the most vile and disgusting films that I've ever seen. Subtitled 'Confessions of a Necrophile' for the US market, Deranged tells the story of Ezra Cobb; a simple farm owner who lives with his domineering mother. After her death, Ezra gradually slips into insanity; starting with the unearthing of his yearlong dead mother from the grave. Ezra then decides that she needs patching up, and so embarks on unearthing more bodies for the task. It isn't long, however, before the psychopath is on the rampage for fresher victims... Deranged goes all out to shock from the outset. The image of Ezra carrying his dead mother into her bedroom is sickening in a way that few movies manage. The amoral attitude of the character adds to this sickness, and ensures that most audience members will be uncomfortable watching this film. Deranged benefits from a superb lead performance courtesy of Roberts Blossom. Blossom does an amazing job of convincing us that he really is the psycho at the centre of the film. Usually in films like this, I am firmly on the side of the killer; not really caring about the victims - but Blossom is so vile in this film that I was actually praying he DIDN'T catch his prey! The film has a short running time, but this time is used excellently on a series of nasty and weird sequences, and the movie never really lets the pace go once it has set itself up. On the whole, this film has gained itself a cult following for a reason. It's certainly not for everyone's taste, and it's not as good as the most famous of the films that the story has influenced - but if you like your cinema to grisly and shocking; Deranged is a film that you should seek out!

I rented the dvd and I was surprised in how awful this was. This story hashes the Ed Gein story and still it has enough gore to fill a butcher shop. Robert Blossom acts like a male version of Anna Nicole Smith without the qualudes: and the movie is so bad it's laughable. If your video store has this on dvd watch the second film on the disc . It will be better than this trash

Oh yeah! This is what us genre fans like to call a REAL horror film! "Deranged" is shocking, insensitive, cold-hearted and features a 'you-don't-like-it-go-to-hell'-honesty you can't possibly walk away from! This is the pretty damn factual, and therefore hugely disturbing, reconstruction of the case of Wisconsin serial killer Ed Gein. This guy was crazier and far more dangerous than any fictional horror character could ever be and therefore he was a nearly endless source of inspiration for independent filmmakers who wanted to bring a horrific tale. "Deranged" appears to be very cheap and amateurish, but it's one of the rare films in which the low budget production values actually contribute in making the story more grim and realistic! Ed Gein really was a poor and simple-minded farmer who went absolutely berserk after the death of his beloved mother and he refused to accept her passing away by replacing her with cadavers that he kept in his house. The characters' names have been altered, as well as the timing of the story, but Ezra Cobb's actual crimes are frighteningly truthful and portrayed with a chilling eye for detail. The film's biggest trump is unquestionably the casting of the rather unknown actor Roberts Blossom whose impressive and straight-faced performance will make you more than once wonder whether he isn't a real madman! Other aspects that definitely increase the creepiness are the constant funeral music that guides the film and the colorless, depressing set pieces. "Deranged" is not a total gorefest (mainly due to the lack in budget) but the murders are nonetheless explicitly illustrated and quite bloody. Strangely enough, the film's devastating tone is regularly undercut with brilliant flashes of morbid black humor, like Ezra's encounter with an overweight widow who talks to her deceased husband. In short, "Deranged" is a typically 70's cult treasure that should be watched by every horror fan on this planet.

This movie is just plain bizarre--not scary, not disturbing--just weird. Envision the actor who played the "Snow Shovel Killer" in Home Alone as Norman Bates, and that more or less says it all. The story of Ed Gein was the inspiration for Psycho, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (the original movie came out the same year as this one), and Silence of the Lambs. Seeing how the story influenced the other, superior movies is perhaps the only reason to see Deranged. I knew we were in trouble when the voice-over narration (a same device used at the beginning of Chainsaw Massacre) turned into a bona fide crime TV reporter, who makes frequent appearances in the film while the events unfold. This is pure camp, although it's not a particularly good or scary film. It was released on DVD with Motel Hell, and the two movies have some things in common (cannibalism, rural settings), but Motel Hell is slightly better because the filmmakers were in on the gag. In this movie, I don't know what they were thinking.

If you can stomach the plot of this movie, then I think that it's fair to say that you will like it. The bloodshed is kept to a minimum (considering the subject matter), but the film should still probably be avoided if you are squeamish or easily offended. However, for people like me who can enjoy a warped sense of humour and don't mind a little gore, it's a pleasant way to spend some time.
