Little Dead Rotting Hood

Has far as B-movies go it is not horrible. The acting is about where you would expected it to be. Really the only thing that kept throwing me off was the sheriff's half latino daughter when both parents'were clearly caucasian.

The Asylum has been around for a while now, and yes this movie is from 2016, but i watched it in late 2022. I know what is The Asylum and what they produce. Sometimes i enjoy myself decently with their low budget movies, sometimes i really don't. In this case, it was alright...

If you decide to watch an Asylum movie, you should know what you gonna get wich is basically average to subpar acting, mediocre scripte, bad CGI and more often than not, some nice naked girls. This movie check all the marks.

The acting is alright and actually better than expected, the nudity is completely useless to the script but very welcomed as that lady is very hot ;) and when it comes to special effects, the CGI is terrible because lets face it, The Asylum never really get much budget, and it looks like a Playstation 3 cutscene at best, but the practical effects and real dogs they used to portray the wolves were decent.

Obviously they had to go around a few things, you got A LOT of close up shots of the real animals and the camera can get pretty shaky at times, but it never look super terrible or anything.

The script ain't amazing by any means but its serviceable. For a movie call Little Dead Rotting Hood tough, there is a lot more screen time for Eric Balfour's Sheriff character. That said, he was probably the best actor in the movie.

The reality is i saw this movie for rent for 1$ during the Halloween discounts on Xbox, i knew what i was gonna get when i saw it was an Asylum movie and it was just that, no bad surprise at all. I was fine paying 1$ for that and it was midly entertaining for that 90 minutes. Thus why i am giving it the average rating.

This plot Oo :-D

Lady in the woods passes the crown to her granddaughter to become some kind of Zombie-Vampire-Werewolve-Buffy-Chick, so she can protect the small town from a supernatural evil, the Denmother. Why she had to be dead for that, who knows...

It felt like an over-length Buffy episode, and it showed the same trademarks - TV look, effects that change between super bad and surprisingly good, dialogues from hell, and a cast that is fairly talented. Especially Eric Balfour, this good old veteran, does his job just as good as he always does. Bianca A. Santos, the "Red Rotting Hood", did her job well, too. The rest was overacted mostly, but still okay.

Some of the Special FX were really bad, like the 3 guys changing into wolves - I've seen this done better by small YouTubers. Some other scenes were really cool though - the director knew what he had to do with a small budget and focused on key scenes done well. A fight in a small town, at night, with lots of trained animals, flame throwers, 30 or more extras, CGI - this is not easy ! The main antagonist effects (don't wanna spoil you guys !) were not state of the art (or time), but still looked good - you needa be fair here, this is not a 200 Million dollar Hollywood movie.

Also, finally a horror B-movie without any night scene problems. Not one single time I had to try hard to recognize anything in dark scenes - so, good job from the lighting and camera department !

The dialogues are the biggest weakness of the movie - they were bad, and I mean like, super bad. The actors tried their best, but some lines cannot be delivered in a good way, not even if Meryl Streep would say them.

Overall, the movie is totally okay. It is not art, it is not even a good movie in the pure meaning of the word. But it entertained me fairly, and if you look for a "brains out, amusement on" movie, this might be the one for you, especially if you like Werewolves or creature horror in general.

There is even a pretty awesome female nudity scene - oh my gosh, was that chick hot. Uff.

So, get it, guys, nothing wrong with "Little Dead Rotting Hood", maybe besides the stupid title. In general, I probably would not have taken the Red Riding Hood story as background, it was not needed. But however, again, nothing wrong with it.

Have fun, and beware of the Denmother.

Maybe keep your dog out of the room, the tons of animal noises might make him nervous ;)

This is really worthless. It aint worth your time. this is 88 minutes I will never get back. The story is okay, but the acting, the cgi, the "wolf". All of it, it's just bad. BAD. Do not watch. I am being honest with you people that it aint worth your time. Just ignore this movie and find something better to watch. Just listen to these words: No. Do Not Watch this video. It is horrible!

No bite intended - sorry no pun intended of course. The movie might be apt for my (accidental?) first pun. All kidding aside though: this is a low budget affair. Still casting wise, it does have quite a few people in that you may know. Marina Sirtis? What Star Trek Next Generation fan does not know her? Well I reckon she needs to make some money - why not appear in this as .. Grandma? Exactly.

Than you also have Balfour - someone who at one point or the other was a shoe in to be the next big thing. Maybe I am wrong, but women (and I reckon some men) where (and still are) quite into him. If you wonder about the story here? Well do not ... there is nothing surprising here ... some nudity, some violence, predictable twists and all that ... still if you have a heart for low budget horror movies and are willing to give it a pass (for its fun/pun title) ... go ahead: make your day (or night)
