Rating:  - Very good 70s horror film
Less well known horror film of the mid 1970s featuring a capable cast. The core setting of the film is at an old drive-in. Apt setting & atmosphere selected for this film.
Piper Laurie is the title character, Stuart Whitman turns in a decent performance as a pivotal character, as does Roger Davis as a medium of the occult, & Janit Baldwin as Ruby's daughter who's possessed by her late father, a gunned-down gangster.
Employees of the drive-in are murdered one by ... Read More
Rating:  - DO YOU LOVE ME RUBY?
ASHEEEE-BA-BA-BEE! It still gives me the WHILLIES!
I am speaking of my title caption spoken from the
Paul McCartney eyed Janit Baldwin. You see I saw this
on a WED. in 1977(I do not know how I knew it was a
Wed. But I do.) it was a double bill of The Hills
have Eyes and Ruby. Piper(where is the Oscar for Carrie)
Laurie plays Ruby a former gun moll who is haunted by
her slain lover who possesses their autistic teen daughter

Rating: - Bad movie...but in a good way
Ok...this movie was never going to win any awards. And it's not even good. But for a b-movie film buff like myself...it's a great film! It is certainly a film with character. The only thing that the film has going for it is Piper Laurie. She's awesome as Ruby! The movie itself is trying to be like the movie "the Exorcist," but is unsuccessful at it. This version is the good version. There was a badly edited version with a lot of cuts and most of the violence taken out. You won't like this ... Read More
Rating:  - COOL THO NEGLECTED HORROR CLASSIC
What makes a horror film a classic? What ingredients does one need to include to make such a film to deserve a praise word as 'classic'? In 'Ruby', a highly ignored film from the 70's is called a classic for it's sheer nerve in being one of the earliest 'body count' films that actually had a story to tell without giving the audience a handful of meaningless murders to people we didn't care for.
At the time of the film's release, it was relegated to the Drive-In circuit, and a few lesser 'hard ... Read More
Rating:  - Kinda Silly
This movie was watchable, and succesful at the box office but not scary in the least. Piper was great in this film. In the special features I heard the director of this film speak of The Blair Witch Project, stating "it must be good markenting because he sees nothing scary about the arrangment of some sticks."
Well I would say to him, the thing that was scary to some people about the Blair Witch was what you don't see, not the sticks it is not the gore and blood because there isn't much of ... Read More
