People seem to really like Mary:
"Just finished watching Mary, Mary, Bloody Mary. Wow. I wasn't expecting it to even be noteworthy. But it was phenomenal. Very atmospheric and creepy. And the story was superb, love the giallo-esque approach to the copycat "killer". And the twist ending completely took me off guard. It was very classy and not at all what I was expecting. Seriously, I freakin loved it!
If you were on the fence and not sure about picking this one up, get it! It was amazing. Its not a cliche 70s Vampire movie. It takes the mythology in a different direction. She almost like a tortured soul that despises being a vampire and hates doing what she does but knows that she can only fight off her hunger for so long before she has to do something about it. Its a very nicely done flick. I enjoyed it the most out of the ones I've seen so far. (Only 2 left, The Redeemer and Savage Streets!)"
"Mary Mary Bloody Mary has been criminally overlooked; it was my most anticipated title from this batch - I can't stress enough how much people should check it out. Mary Mary Bloody Mary is a great horror film; the type that if people knew more about it they'd have been begging someone, anyone, to release it. I'm confused how some movies get elevated to cult status, but other good ones get overlooked."
"I was also really impressed by Mary, which I hadn't seen or had even been aware of previously. One of those moody, downbeat, and dreamily eerie films that the 70's specialized in. What made it most effective for me was that Mary remains surprisingly sympathetic throughout, despite her bloodlust. Certainly the 'best' film that Code Red has released on Blu-ray so far."
"Mary Mary, Bloody Mary should have been a horror classic by now. I'm shocked after reading up on just how under-the-radar it has flown. (Well, even I didn't know what it was until Code Red's blu-ray, and I'm not the only one ) It's practically flawless imo. Hopefully it gains some sort of following now that its in print."
