Bunnyman

The plot for this movie is simple a group of young morons are tormented by a maniac dressed in a bunny costume. The execution however is terrible.

If your one of those people who shout at the screen every time a character in a horror movie makes a bad decision prepare to scream yourself hoarse. This movie has possibly one of the most moronic group of characters I've ever witnessed. Every decision they make is either the wrong one or just plain stupid. Some choice examples. Never once taking the opportunity to overwhelm a single bad guy when they greatly out number them. Always running off and leaving their friends to die. But my favourite is when the Bunnyman has been chasing them in a truck and is trying to run them off the road they pull over and the Bunnyman pulls up behind them. What do they decide to do? Wait him out, both the truck and the car just sit there for what is portrayed as several hours. DUMB.

The Bunnyman is not alone though he has a pet hunchback chained up in his house. There is also a normal looking woman who has a rather mean streak connected to him. In what way we never find out is she the sister, the mother, who cares, I certainly didn't by this point. If your wondering what the Bunnyman looks like under that bunny head I'll tell you, disappointing.

The gore effects are few and far between pretty much everyone has a chainsaw (the Bunnymans' weapon of choice) shoved into their stomach. But you don't see it, you just see some blood spray up their face. All the kills are off screen so it doesn't even have that in it's favour.

The acting is pretty terrible but then so is the dialogue so you can't win. The sound is also annoying I found myself turning up the volume to hear the talking and then the chainsaw would start going or a car horn or some other irritating sound and it would be deafening.

The movie was a massive disappointment for me. I was expecting something like motel hell, but it was nothing like it. I wasted my money on this movie and the only comfort I can take is that the makers of the film probably didn't get their deposit back from the fancy dress shop they got the Bunnyman costume from.

Some of the reviews for this movie (and so many others) really get on my nerves. You're reviewing a movie about a slasher who wears a bunny suit and then griping that "the acting is terrible" and the overall movie is horrible. When a blurb says that a film is supposed to be "the most hardcore" anything I can almost guarantee IT'S NOT. As a proclaimed B- movie aficionado, you should know better.

This isn't the worst low budget movie ever. This isn't even the worst low budget movie with a slasher in a weird costume I've ever seen. So, I ask of other reviewers: What exactly are you looking for in a low budget slasher flick with a dude in an Easter Bunny suit? Fellini?

Now then. I actually quite enjoyed the movie. Despite what other reviewers have claimed, the acting is surprisingly good. I've certainly seen much worse. Hell, I've seen worse in the last 24 hours. The action lagged in areas and the gore wasn't really explicit enough for me (I'm a total gore hound), but overall not too shabby.

Don't let the Negative Nellys above scare you off. Check it out!

This movie is about as "fun" as a bunny making doo in your hand. Don't be conned by the gimmick. Killer in bunny suit. That's about as deep as that rabbit hole goes. The script attempts to expand the mythology of the killer and his crew but it fails miserably and leaves questions unanswered. The acting is terrible. The motives of the characters are insulting. The characters will actually make you loathe them almost immediately with their initial plan of action on first contact. It's hard to empathize or have any interest beyond that first encounter. So there's a sequel...how shocking...these guys love to take horror fans money because we're so loyal. If you watch it...make sure your pal is footing the bill and remember that you heard it was bad. Rub it in when your done...it's the only satisfaction you'll get watching this pile of poo.

After reading a blurb about this movie declaring it "the most hardcore horror film of the year", I set out to watch it for two reasons: I either had to know how awesome it would be or how wrong that blurb was. It was wrong. Dead wrong. In so, so many ways. Allow me to explain.

I can excuse a lot of things in low-ish budget horror movies. I understand you do what you can with what you have. I had to stop making excuses for this movie after about 20 minutes. The acting is among some of the worst I've seen in quite some time. It actually made me cheer on the ridiculous antagonist solely because I wanted all of these kids dead so I wouldn't have to put up with their unique brand of suck anymore. Then there's multiple levels of laziness. Putting the bad guy in a bunny costume? Are you kidding me? The only reason you do that is because you're too damn lazy to do the makeup. Same goes for all of the kill scenes. They're all implied, never shown aside from some blood spray. Yes, it saves money but it also makes you look lazy and incompetent if you use that style every single time.

I'm trying to think of something redeemable in this movie and I just can't. I was almost mad at myself for sitting through the entire 90 minutes without throwing something at my TV. Low budget horror movies are supposed to be fun...or at least an attempt to get away with something that wouldn't really go over well in a theater. But this...this is just a failure on so many levels that it's embarrassing.

I saw a lot of reviews giving this a very negative review. However I have seen so many horror movies so much worse it makes the money film look so much better. There was a few bad things on the script when the boy put down the chainsaw when he could have killed the guy there was several times where they did things like that which kind of ruins the movie. However putting a mask on of a rabbit was kind of interesting at least it kept you in suspense not knowing what he looked like. I kind of reminds me of Friday the 13th with that Jason character. Anyway it wasn't as bad as what people say here I actually kind of enjoyed it for a low budget horror movie.
