The Wickeds

Seven young people have decided to spend Halloween night in an old,run down house supposed by the local community to be haunted.However during the night a couple of grave robbers-one of whom is played by porn legend Ron Jeremy-drop by,terrified beyond belief.They are on the run from an army of bloodthirsty zombies,which will not rest until it has killed off everyone in the group."The Wickeds" by John Poague is a laughably bad zombie flick filled with lame acting,absurd situations and tons of cheesy splatter.The script is incredibly poor and rips-off "Night of the Living Dead" and "Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things".Still Ron Jeremy's character and plenty of zombie mayhem are obvious highlights of this crappy flick.3 out of 10.Not recommended.

The cover was false advertising. I actually was excited to rent it and every time I went to Blockbuster they were out of it.. so I'm guessing a lot of other people were fooled by their cover. Although they were pretty smart to get people to see it (which really, is the main goal) by the misleading cover and synopsis, there was nothing even remotely close to what the cover was like. I spent my time laughing at the bad acting, shadows of the camera guy, cheesy special effects, lame plot, Ron Jeremy?, well why waste my time even talking about it.. the movie just plain sucked.

Don't see it.

I don't even see a point in writing a good review for something this bad, so I will just rant...

This movie is so bad I only watched 15 minutes of the whole thing. Or even less, seeing as I did fast forward through the whole film.

It is awful. The acting was awful The script was awful. As were the editing, the camera operator, and so on. Even the sex scene was out of order. Until now I didn't think that was even possible. Possibly one or two of the zombies had good make-up. That's it when it comes to the good stuff.

I didn't expect a lot from it, but it didn't cross my mind that it could be this bad. That anything could be this bad. I can't believe someone actually made this. I feel mentally scarred for life now, it was so awful.

I would give this a minus rating if I could, but seeing that 1 is the lowest rating, I will have to settle for that...

Don't even think of watching this. Never, ever.

Now, let me begin by saying that i love cheap horror movies. Can't get enough of 'em. I adore "Plan 9 from Outer Space". I loved "Chopping Mall" and "I Dismember Mama". But this... abomination...

Shot on camcorder in a local graveyard and what seems to be someone's garden shed standing in for the requisite "Evil Dead" shack, this stars (and i use the word advisedly) porno legend Ron Jeremy and the local amateur dramatics society. When the Hedgehog of Sex puts in a movie's best performance, things ain't looking good.

Anyhow, the plot - such as it is - involves two cretinous gravediggers stealing an amulet from the body of a magician / vampire, who promptly rises from the grave to retrieve his filched property, and conjures a horde of zombies from the surrounding graves to help him besiege a shed full of dozy students in which said gravedigging thieves have taken refuge. Leaving aside the question of how a vampire summons zombies, what follows is some of the most inept stuff committed to film. The girl who is spuriously "possessed", gaining spooky eyes DRAWN ONTO HER EYELIDS had me paralysed with laughter rather than fear.

Worth viewing only for the hot brunette chick (Kelly Roth) and the awe-inspiring stunt sequence where a guy hangs and drops a whole 3 feet onto some straw. They even play it in slow motion for maximum devastating effect. This film may well be toxic: do not approach.

A group of kids decide to spend Halloween at a house in the countryside being used as a set for a low budget horror film next to a large cemetery where two gravediggers bring the dead back to life by stealing a piece of jewelry from a corpse. Okay, time for the pros and cons. The pros: Ron Jeremy. The (former?) porn star was the best thing in this film. He was the only actor who seemed comfortable in front of the camera, and he seemed to be the only one who didn't take everything too seriously. As a result, he managed to give the film it's only enjoyable moments. The cons: Ron Jeremy is the best thing in the film. That should tell you everything you need to know about the rest of the indistinguishable actors and actresses who spend the entire movie screaming or yelling at each other. It became a bit of a headache, which was made even more infuriating because there is not a bit of common sense in the film, i.e., why did Jeremy and his friend run to the house rather than going to their own truck. Why everyone just doesn't get the other car going. Plus, does there have to be a ghost too? If you can't get the zombie thing down, don't even thing about doing ghosts. Geez, Louise. Enough already!

Truth be known, I sought this film out. I saw a trailer for it before "The Revolting Dead." I hated "The Revolting Dead," which had the same plot about grave robbers being tormented by the returning dead, but I thought this film had to be better. Oddly enough, this film was better than "The Revolting Dead" thanks mainly to Ron Jeremy. (One final note, without meaning to, I have just seen Ron Jeremy in three out of the last four horror movies I saw. I guess there must be a law requiring him to appear in every horror movie under a certain budget. This performance was the best of the three.)
