Product Description A possible prelude to Natural Born Killers, Andy Warhols Bad is as low as it goes. Hazel runs a beauty salon out of her house, but makes extra money by providing ruthless women to do hit jobs. K.T. is a parasite, and contacts Hazel looking for work when he runs out of money. She is reluctant to use him for a hit, since she prefers using women, but decides to try him on a trial basis. Meanwhile, the local cop she pays off wants an arrest to make it look like he's actually doing his job, but she doesn't want to sacrifice any of her "associates." Several other side plots are woven in, populated with characters from the sleazy side of life.

Blurry DVD-R/ not a factory original April 1, 2009 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Last I heard, the rights to this film were owned by Avco Embassy Entertainment, and not the screwy company that is marketing this obvious bootleg product. Fans of the original film should stay as far away from this "company" as possible.
Best movie from Andy Warhol. October 4, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
This DVD is of VHS quality but still the same good movie starring Carroll Baker. If you want a great off beat funny movie, this is the classic of all funny movies.
Bad a Warhol classic May 5, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Out of all the Warhol films this is my favorite. Carol Baker is amazing, a great black comedy. I wore out my VHS...

CheesyFlicks edition missing scenes from original. February 28, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I must say that this is one of my all time favorite movies and having seen the VHS edition dozens of times, this edition is flawed. It is missing at least two short scenes, one of which is hysterically shocking where Glenda and Marsha mug a guy in a wheelchair. The other shot that I noticed absent is where the wife of the man with one arm (whose nose hair is growing back) insults the guy waiting for the pay phone in the bar. The copy I viewed had no problems playing.
The DVD plays fine! November 25, 2007 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Just thought I'd come on here and offer my 2 cents for others, like me, who saw all these scary reviews and decided NOT to get this company's (CheesyFlicks) copy of this much-sought-after, criminally under-seen masterpiece. I want to kick myself for waiting! The experiences those reviewers had might be true, but I bought this in November of 2007 and it plays just fine. Plus the DVD arrived immediately with no shipping problems. I actually rented it on Netflix first, then when I saw how good it was, I bought one. We have three DVD players (even a lousy, temperamental one) and it played perfectly on all three. The quality looks like a first generation video transfer, full screen, from a clean, new video copy - which is what this DVD is - so you know what to expect. It's fine! The sound is also crisp and clean. For people that love this film, like me, it's more than fine, it's a miracle. At least until it's officially released. OF NOTE: fans of this film should be aware that the particular print this company used is missing one scene. It's the scene after Glenda and Marsha have left Estelle's apartment after meeting with her, walking down the street talking about how they'll come back and kill the dog tomorrow, and then they suddenly mug those guys in wheelchairs for no reason. That whole scene is just not there. A little research reveals that many versions of this film have been circulating around over the decades, with some scenes missing in some prints, maybe because they were considered too awful (yet the baby scene is still in? Haha!). Otherwise there's nothing else missing, it's all there. WHAT A GREAT FILM!!!
