New Terminal Hotel

There should be an extra tax for abysmal theatrical productions. This was a wretched waste of time. My senses want to be compensated for the time spent on this.

Since there is a requirement for how long a review should be I decided to think if there was any good walk aways from this flic. I guess the fact that it started off a bit confusing but with enough plot development that it kept my attention long enough to watch more was a promising thing. But soon after I realized that I was only sticking around for disappointment. Others may find this as something interesting or entertaining enough with which to pass the time. Unfortunately, I am not one of them.

Well, this was a dark movie populated with despicable characters.

I suppose this is a tale of revenge, punctuated by someone who completely loses his way. Don (Stephen Geoffreys) is a Hollywood screenwriter, holed up in a seedy apartment, where various people bang on his door, as well as come to visit (never to see the light of day again). One is his agent (Tiffany Shepis), who has been after his "comeback" script for 2 years. But all isn't right with Don. Or with anyone else, really.

Lots of strong characters in this, each one more rotten than the last. Overall, a fairly unpleasant experience, with a real uneasy score setting the tone. But this was certainly interesting enough to stick with, right up to its grim conclusion.

Tiffany Shepis does NOT get naked in this! (other ladies pick up the slack, however). Actually, I thought Shepis' performance was the strongest one in the whole movie, as Don's hard-headed, no-nonsense, AND morally corrupt film agent.

Very poor. A waste of classic 80s cult actors Corey Haim & Stephen Geoffreys. Even with a small budget of 500G they surely could have afforded a few more locations than mainly one room considering the story line definitely was holding up the film. It's no 1408 so spread it around! If it wasn't for the name of the film, you wouldn't even know it's meant to be a hotel/motel. Story line is basically nothingness...no twists or character development...guy kills a few people he ethically believes deserves it sometimes unexplicably wearing a mask and sometimes not and the fact the guy was a writer had no relevance even though they mention that a lot. Finnally no logic to Corey Haim having what I think was meant to be a British accent. Love Corey Haim (rip) but weird accent not a good direction from well...the director. Spoilers...I have none..because there is nothing to spoil. The blurb you see written next to the film title...that's basically it. As the gang in "Friends" said to Joey after watching his "Mac&Cheese" TV show......eh....the Lighting was really good.

Here's an original, clever little horror film. It's a really good film that captivated and intrigued me all the way through.

The thing that I appreciated the most about it is the hard hitting, raw, real, honest, and creative dialogue. I've seen a lot of films and most of them have dialogue that is so normal and clichéd and ordinary that it doesn't grab my attention. But this film is different, this film has dialogue which always captivated me, and always forced me to pay attention(in a good way) to this film. The other thing which is spectacular and outstanding about this film is the out there and, original story. I loved the raw story. Another thing which makes this an impressive film is the unusually and uncommonly dark and hard hitting atmosphere which is due to the dark story, the dark settings, and the dark set ups. Also the acting is really good from Stephen Geoffreys. And Tiffany Shepis gave a great performance. I've never seen her give a great performance before and so that was really memorable and important to me as I've always loved her as an actor. The rest of the actors do a good job as well.

This one is memorable and stands out from most other B-horror movies which have come out in the past few years. It's better than most other B-horror movies of late because of it's fresh feel and imaginative and creative edge. Most B-horror movies being made nowadays seem to be all the same because they don't have any plot elements which is original or unique and they don't know how to make scenes impact viewers, they just use the same slasher movie formula or some other supernatural horror movie formula we've already seen and seen done better. This film stands out with it's ingenuity in the face of a low budget to get ideas, images, and story content out in creative, and unique ways.

It's a stark, blunt, dark, sometimes disturbing, and raw horror film so if you can't take hard hitting, realistic and detailed violence then don't watch it. If you can then definitely watch it, you'll enjoy it.

In this edited-down version of "New Terminal Hotel", screenwriter Don Malek (Stephen Geoffreys, Fright Night, 976-Evil, and quiet possibly one of the worst horror film I've ever seen Mr. Hush), still smarting from his girlfriend being murdered, decides to get vengeance while holed up in a seedy motel room andkeeping a powerful movie producer drugged up in the bathtub. Tiffany Shepis is (former Tromette) Ava, his heavily put-upon agent who becomes an unwitting accessory in the macabre little game he's playing. Oh and Corey Haim has a small cameo for no reason whatsoever.

It's a slowly paced film and I'd only label it horror loosely. However, seeing this after Don's film, Mr.Hush, it can't help but appear to be a better film, if only by default. Worth what I paid to watch it (for the sake of transparency, I get four free rentals from Redbox Instant per month, this is the first one I picked for August) but if you've paid more than me, you'll likely to be horribly disappointed. The film is disjointed, awkward, slow and not particularly engaging.
