Psycho Goreman

A nonstop hilarious cheese-fest. Loved every minute of it!

Hey it was a lot of fun!! i was really anticipating this film since it was announced. Loved the effects, loved the character designs and the story (mostly) bbbbuutt a few gripes if i may. Firstly i felt they really tried to cram as much stuff into this movie as possible and to me it kinda never really let goreman sink in or shine as a character. It just moved so fast with so much back story and cut aways and outfit changes and songs that it Just kinda felt like throw everything at the wall and hope it sticks. Not all was stuck by the time the credits rolled. Also i have to say and i dont want at all to discourage or knock the young actress because she was aces in her role but man oh man was the main character annoying. The truly evil one in this picture. just such a bossy bratt and i really felt had they approached her character in a different way it would have elevated the movie for me. Its hard to juxtapose goreman as the ultimate evil against someone who is even more of a dick! Annyway aside from that this is a really fun ride and pretty much what youd expect. Solid 6.5 outta 10

Psycho Goreman is a movie that knows exactly what it is trying to be, and exactly what its limitations are. It's a five-star three star movie that embraces the fun rubber-suit splatter gore aesthetics of cheesy 80s flicks, the kind that Troma excelled at (but without the vomit and nudity that often went along with it - the main characters are middle-school students after all). The monsters in the film feel like someone decided to do a comic version of Warhammer 40K - strange, horrifying, with gothic elements that incorporate weird baby faces, disturbing technology, magic and machinery. Now put all that firepower in the hands of a truly psychotic middle-schooler, and make it a comedy. It's good, dumb fun that embraces its concept to an almost ludicrous degree. If things like Toxic Avenger, GWAR and Terrorvision make you giggle, of it you just wondered what a weirdly violent Alf-style sitcom based around a Warhammer 40K chaos demon would look like, there's lots to love in this film.

...this would be that love child.

It's campy, and silly, and it's definitely people running around in rubber costumes, but it's humorous and amusing.

As others have said, this is a love or hate kinda movie. You're either going to think it's garbage or you're gonna chuckle and enjoy yourself. I had a great time, and I sense a cult film waiting to grow into its status.

'Psycho Goreman (2020)' is like 'Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (1993 - 1996)' meets 'Evil Dead II (1987)' by way of 'Flash Gordon (1980)', a schlocky Saturday morning show crossed with a gooey splat-stick comedy and a campy sci-fi throwback. It's the kind of thing that knows exactly what it is and doesn't care if you like it or not. Frankly, its irreverence is charming. Though it isn't hilarious, it provokes a genuine chuckle perhaps more often than expected and is generally just about subversive enough to properly work, despite its somewhat generic arcs and obviously low budget. Though some may be put off by its low-fi bizarreness, it ought to hit the spot for those who it is aimed at and that's all it really cares about. It isn't going to win any awards or break any box-office records, but it isn't trying to. It feels very much like a passion project that was just as fun to make as it is to watch. Its budget is put to good use on some generally impressive special effects, which only very occasionally take you out of the piece's purposefully 'cheesy' aesthetic. Even when they do, the visual concepts are unique enough that you can easily forgive any money-related shortcomings. It's an entertaining time pretty much from start to finish. If you meet it on its own terms, you should have a good bit of fun with it. 7/10.
