Screamboat

I really wanted to like this but it was just so cringe. I don't feel like I heard one laugh actually hit. The budget felt too small, the mouse nothing like steamboat which was daissopiinting. The Disney princesses were a fun idea but then it didn't finish the joke as in none of them were killed in the fashion of the princesses they were. Also the acting.. Really took me out of it. Better than Mouse Trap, but that is not saying much.

The Disney nods didn't entertain me, the film feels like an eternity, the kills just aren't good largely due to the fact a rat is doing them. The lighting is abysmal, the performances are terrible and it felt like a chore to get through. The rat design is laughable, obviously the budget is low so there are limitations but I just couldn't get on board with this. I'm sure there's a crowd out there that will like it tho so please go form your own opinion.

This film is passable, if you've seen the trailer or know what this is even about, you'll be getting exactly what you were probably expecting - a bunch of purposely expressive characters you'd wanna see killed in true slasher fashion. This is a goofy, extremely self aware film that delivers on just that - if you're expecting anything serious or anything on the aspect of plot that isn't purposely cliche, then you're not watching the right film. Some complaints lie with the pacing, as well as how rushed the end began feeling and looking. Some kills could have gone farther with the hype of people being behind Terrifier, but worry not, this film delivers in its own special take on that; filming in some spots feels jarring and even blurry, some cheap spots. Some genuinely good moments of laughs and self aware dark humor, along with some really fleshed out and decent scenes. This is much better than some other films in this joke wave, however it's far from anything spectacular or good. Memorable? A good film to watch with friends and even catch in theaters for an experience? Yes. This film is serviceable at the very least, I'd recommend if you know exactly what you're walking into - which you should.

They made a fun, campy, balls to the wall (you'll see what I mean) movie. Definitely the best public domain film I have seen. They took a swing and made this funny with gore. It's pretty much a spoof on Disney and Streamboat Willie but has some heart. This may not be everyone's cup of tea but if you let loose and take it for what it is you'll enjoy yourself. It's refreshing the route these filmmakers took and didn't follow the Winnie the Pooh dark route. I mean how can we take a little mouse killing series? And the filmmakers didn't either, the way they did it was the only way something like this could be successful. Well done!

I have to admit that I harbored zero expectations to this 2025 horror comedy titled "Screamboat", given all the crap that has been released recently with the likes of Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Popeye, etc. But still, I hadn't watched this movie already, and given my love o all things horror, of course I had to check it out.

Writers Matthew Garcia-Dunn and Steven LaMorte put together a pretty straightforward script. It wasn't particularly outstanding, but I will admit that the movie was actually oddly entertaining for the cheesy thing it was, pardon the pun. There was something oddly enjoyable about the movie, which I suppose was because it was so far out there.

The only one on the cast list that I was familiar with was David Howard Thornton, and he was portraying the mouse. It should be noted that the acting performances in "Screamboat" were fair.

Sure, "Screamboat" is by no means a cinematic gem in the horror genre, but it was actually an entertaining enough off-beat slasher horror comedy.

And there was actually enough blood and mayhem to keep a seasoned gorehound such as myself sated.

My rating of director Steven LaMorte's 2025 movie "Screamboat" lands on a five out of ten stars.

This movie is terrible. Absolutely terrible. The acting is horrible. It feels like they just pulled random actors off the street without an audition. The storyline is damn near a nonexistent. It's a pathetic attempt at anything I mean I hope and pray people didn't waste their money watching this in theaters. It's funny at times which is why I gave it three stars out of 10, but that's not enough to make up for just a complete lack of anything good in this film. The lead actress is terrible. In fact, the entire cast is horrible except for the mouse actor. This should have been a comedy. It should've been marketed as a comedy and any attempt that seriousness should have been avoided. The budget was high enough that they could rent out a Staten Island ferry, but not high enough that they could avoid using terrible looking green screenshots. The costumes were horrendous. Things were shoehorned in that made no real contribution to the storyline like they were ticking boxes. Complete waste of time. Box office flop this movie should've gone straight to streaming it never should've reached movie theaters and for that reason I'm out.
