Blood Pageant

Blood Pageant is the kind of movie you want to see more than once!

The comedic romp behind the scenes of a reality show competition is very enjoyable! The PA (played by Leo Gilmore) says to the other PA (played by John Ernst) that "you never tell the producer's wife where the producer REALLY is." "These are things they don't teach you in film school." The producer (played by David Chokachi) is so well played and he is so caught up in his ratings that he doesn't even care about all the mysterious deaths and disappearances around him. He plays off of the uptight and frustrated British director (played by Steve Spiro) so well! The comedy they bring is worth enjoying. The movie arcs in horror and there are some cool scares, but this is not a slasher film. It is a campy comedy horror with a mysterious twist ending. Snoop Dogg was such a good addition as the judge of the reality show. Ten stars! I bought it on Amazon!

Did not know this was going to have this many comedic scenes. Loved the satirical take on reality shows and also for having a positive message at the end. A true good vs evil story.

I mean wow! This is one of, if not the worst film of '21. Its a supernatural slasher religious film. Thats right I said religious film. Its about a house set reality show where the cast and crew gets killed by a entity that makes stock sound noises. Its a total mess to say the least but I hated the religious message that treats any non religious person as a immoral idiot. But at the same time the main girl is completely unlikeable. Possibly the worst female protagonist ever. Plus the film is 115 minutes and does not need to be. Also I get a kick that when the two girls look up history of the 1600s there are photoshopped pictures. Snoop Dog is here and Im sure they filmed with him for a day, maybe two at the most. Hes in 5 brief scenes. I hated this film.

Who is writing all the 10 and 9 star reviews for this movie?? Snoop was literally the only saving grace! Terrible acting, dialogue, plot, music- really it is pretty unwatchable, but I must be a glutton for punishment, because I watched the whole thing! :D :D :D :D.

This is so absolutely inept, poorly made, amateurish and annoying that it's unfair to label it as a film. I can only imagine they spent their budget on Snoop Dogg's cameo, (or somehow 'Bowfinger-ed' him into the film), and everyone else worked for free. There's a few actors trying hard, but the direction so absent, the cinematography so stale, and a story so nonsensical - this isn't even "fun" bad... it's just bad. And kind of depressing.

And then it slowly becomes frighteningly apparent this isn't a normal horror movie - it's "faith based." It's a non-horror horror film, where any scares or laughs are lost to nonsensical monologues about the power of Jesus. It's almost as if Jesus' PR team paid for product placement throughout the film.

Not all faith based, or Christian films are bad, (The Exorcist, The Mission, Constantine are all different, unique, compelling and entertaining), but this one definitely is. For both the faithful and non-faithful this is nothing but a weird, confusing and boring exercise in formulaic filmmaking with zero creativity, intellect or sense of humour.
