Evil Bong 420

After watching the previous three films in the series consecutively, the fourth film feels like a slightly different change in structure and tone as it has gone in a different direction.

Still being directed by Charles Band, a lot of the main characters that appeared in the first three aren't present here, and there are a few new additions. Alistair, Bachman, Brett, and the grandpa are not in this film. Also to note, Luann (Robin Sydney) appears to have a character name change. She is referenced as Sarah but still appears to be the same character of Luann (this wasn't exactly explained- which caused slight confusion).

The plot focuses more on Rabbit operating a topless, weed smoking bowling alley. Larnell is present but his role is smaller (beard is gone, attire is different, seems to have grown up more). The Evil bong Ebee of course is still here. Now the Gingerdead Man is more of a central character and he has a few highlight scenes (including an odd explicit scene with one of the bowling employees). Also an odd character named Hambo, which he appears to have a pig snot for a nose as he makes pig jokes and puns. Didn't find him funny.

With the shortest running time (only 53 minutes), this really isn't great as it has a different feel. They made sure to provide the most skin of the franchise so far to possibly distract viewers. Surely the could have added more plot development and more depth, considering the ending felt rushed.

Overall Evil Bong 420 isn't on the level of the original but is slightly more entertaining than the third. It's short run time helps it.

While the whole franchaise is WTF am i watching silly horror comedy, it has some story and entertainment value, even as it has very bad acting, bad camera work, bad VFX, but somehow it adds to it's charms. The first 3 movies are quite ok to watch.

This on the other hand, is total flop. It has basically no real plot, it's even under 1 hour. The director just wanted to see some naked chicks and that's all the movie has to offer. Pointless nudity. The previous movies had plenty of that too, but it somehow fitted the script. Here the script is 10 times plainer.

Lets hope the next movies are better than this.

1hr30mins gone. What am I doing with my life? If the smoke doesn't kill your brain cells, this movie will get the job done.

The fourth in the long-running series, which by this stage has merged with the GINGERDEAD MAN films and now features both series villains in a single movie. Sadly, this one feels just as low budget as all the others, with static plotting and way too much time wasted by having long and unoriginal, not to mention unfunny, dialogue sequences between the supporting characters. There are plenty of returning faces but very little happens in terms of incident or kills, although they ramp up the nudity in this one to make up for the dearth of content elsewhere. In the end, I found it slightly more entertaining than its predecessors, perhaps because the jokes feel like a little more time has been spent on them.

I get the feeling that I should have watched Gingerdead Man vs. Evil Bong before this one, because there's plenty about this film that had me confused, not least the inclusion of Gingerdead Man and Ooga Booga, and Luann now being called Sarah. However, I do suspect that a clearer understanding of matters wouldn't have made much difference to my enjoyment of this crappy film, which is worse than parts 1-3.

This one sees Rabbit (Sonny Carl Davis) opening a topless bowling alley where patrons can also score some weed, but Evil Bong and Gingerdead Man show up to cause trouble. Director Charles Band seems more interested in getting numerous tattooed women to take off their tops than he is in telling a coherent story, the special effects are terrible, with some really bad CGI, and the humour is even more crude and puerile than before (the 'highlight' being a sex scene between Gingerdead Man and a buxom bimbo).

The film is only 53 minutes, but feels a lot longer.
