La feria del terror

Like the lead woman- nope, you don't look ridiculous at all in an anime-wig- it's amusing, but not quite as amusing and funny as it thinks it is. Interesting concept, but I also have to wonder why Clint Howard was even in this? He barely showed up. What a waste.

If you're a fan or gore and cheesy horror comedies you might like this. Maybe a couple things they said made me chuckle but the majority of the dialogue was nothing short of irritating and cringe-worthy. It was predictable. It had a dull plot. It's hard to find anyone to really root for as no one but the antagonists are at all likeable or have anything close to a personality as those are replaced by stupid quirks. But the action and gore is still fun, even when it looks terribly fake, hence why I gave it no less than 3 stars. However not fun enough to want to see a second time. I've got MUCH better horror movies lying around I could re-watch instead.

Bottom line: It's a fun gorefest to kill some time (no pun intended), but it's nothing we haven't seen before.

Funhouse Massacre was certainly a fun experience for the type of movie it is. We all knew coming into this that it would be a wildly unrealistic, poorly acted and cheesy horror movie but pushing that aside, it was a decent watch. The concept itself of killers getting released and coming into a haunted house was very cool. Unfortunately I think there was just a lot of potential left on the table with the characters themselves as well as the action and events that could have unfolded. Despite this missed potential, there was still something entertaining and likable about the whole thing even with its flaws. Decent watch overall.

I tend to love cheesy slasher flicks that don't take themselves too seriously so I was excited to check out "The Fun House Massacre". After seeing some trailers and reading some reviews this seemed like it would be right up my alley. Story seemed somewhat interesting and there were some very interesting names on the cast list (Robert Englund and Clint Howard), but for the most part I was just excited to see some over the top gory kills and from the looks of it I figured this movie would definitely deliver in that department, it did somewhat but it was also a bit of a disappointment.

Six psychotic maniacs have broken out of a secret asylum that houses people who too violent for modern society, from there they descend upon a Fun house (haunted house) on Halloween and take the place of the staff so that they can have their violent psychotic fun without arousing too much suspicion (since people just assume it is part of the act). So the film does a great job of setting the scene for an ultra blood bath, but I think the main problem here (for me at least) is that the kills just weren't all that fun to watch. The effects weren't terrible but every kill was just kind of generic or not brutal at all. Of the six killers I really only felt like two of them were worthwhile, the rest just kind of felt pointless.

The cast was OK, unfortunately the guys I was looking forward to seeing the most (Englund and Howard) had very little screen time, although the little screen time they had was pretty solid. Everyone else does their parts well enough aside from a few people who tried a little hard to be funny (although I would blame the cheesy dialogue for that). I felt like the killers could have had a bit more personality. It seemed like they wanted The Stitched Face killer to be the stand out but she just wasn't an interesting character and really just ended up feeling like a watered down version of Harley Quinn.

"The Fun House Massacre" isn't an awful movie, it does have points where it is fun and entertaining but with the story line and cast they had at their disposal I feel like this could have been a much better slasher movie. They were headed in the right direction with it but at some point they took a wrong turn and the movie definitely suffers from that. In the end it's just another cheesy slasher movie that has a few redeeming qualities but is far from being anything special.

On Halloween night, a group of six terrifying inmates manage to break free from a high-security mental asylum. Their twisted minds lead them to target unsuspecting teenagers who are enjoying the thrills of the newly opened Haunted Scream Park, turning it into a night of horror and terror.

If you enjoy gore, this film is perfect for you with plenty of bloody scenes to keep you entertained. The minor plot twists add an extra layer of excitement to the film. While the performances may not be outstanding, the film compensates with captivating moments that will hold your attention. This is an adventure that won't leave you frightened, but it certainly won't leave you uninterested either, that's for sure.
