A Crack in the Floor

This is a very standard horror flick, filled with laughable acting and horrible writing. I rented it knowing what to expect and I got exactly what I wanted. The story is very thin and the dialogue is kinda whacked but I really enjoyed it.

The story goes something like this:

33 years ago, a widow and her young son are living in a small cabin somewhere in B.F.E. Well, a couple of hillbillies show up, rape and kill the mother, and beat the tar out of the kid. Thinking they're both dead, the two hicks go on about their business. Somehow, or another the kid doesn't die. He has lived in the basement of the cabin, picking off anyone who stumbles across his nest.

A group of twenty-something college kids (one of them being Mario Lopez from "Saved by the Bell") decide to take a little camping trip.

You can pretty much guess what happens from then on.

I really dig this stuff. I really enjoy campy dialog, and bad film-making, for some reason. This one has all the goods, though. A highlight being Gary Busey. He shows up for a deranged cameo and disspears, but his lines are hilarious.

SPOILER ALERT!

First off, yes, Gary Busey is great, but his appearance in the movie has nothing whatever to do with the plot.

I use the word plot very loosely. This is a slasher flick with no plot and no point to it. The psycho killer (actually a pitiable fellow) leaves not a single survivor. Folks go into the cabin, folks get hacked to death. Period.

Usually at the end of most slasher movies the killer gets killed (or DOES he?), and at least one good-guy/gal character survives to have the requisite scene at the end involving a nightmare that the killer is alive and in bed next to him/her -- aaaaah!! It was only a dream. The end.

I wish I hadn't wasted money to rent this. Gary Busey was funny, but not three bucks' worth.

Apparenlty this is suppose to be a horror/triller movie. Laughed so hard, one of the worst movies I have seen in a while. Acting is awful. Filming is terrible. Special effects, if that is what they are suppose to be, are as good as any you can create at home yourself. Used a 'known' name to attract people. There are actually other recognizable people in this movie, I am not sure why they agreed to be in this. The most money was spent on the cover/poster for this movie. I felt tricked into renting it, the DVD case made it appear to not be as bad as it was, I guess the saying of 'Don't Judge a Book by It's Cover' applies here.Worth watching, just so you can see how bad it really is.

What can I say here that hasn't been said a hundred times before? Folks, this is your classic blueprint for a cheesy horror films. Bad script, atrocious acting, no plot whatsoever, and a killer who lives under the floorboards are the key essentials to B-movie immortality.

The actor that has the most `star power' here is Gary Busey. Wow. What a legendary Hollywood idol he is. Starring in `A Crack in the floor' is probably the reason why he is the highly acclaimed Hollywood actor that he is.

Anyone over 10 will be bored silly. Spend your $3.99 on something more worthwhile.

Grade- D

This one was bad, but I've seen worse pictures.

I only bought this one because Gary Busey was listed, and figured...Even if he only has a small part, it might be interesting. But I was wrong..maybe Gary did it for a friend or the paycheck alone...either way..it seems like he doesn't take this role seriously..when this is said I've seen way worse pictures...This one might have been better if they have had a higher budget to work with. Mostly I don't judge movies even if they seem cheaply done, you'd notice that if you saw my collection of DVD's. But in this case..well.

I'm glad I didn't pay more than 2GBP for this one. I was bored before I began to watch, but my boredom increased me (almost to death;-)during the movie.

The only thing/reason why i'm giving this one 3stars is because of the beginning and the end of the movie..it starts okay...and ends in a way that I didn't expect.You do wonder how it's going to end, and look at every angle...but that's it.

Don't think it was the actors fault,,they didn't have that much.. at all to work with.
