Beaster Day: Here Comes Peter Cottonhell

Not funny and not good at all...it makes no sense except you will see lots of trashy stripper boobs...

UK title - The Beaster Bunny. A giant rabbit is on a rampage at Easter, killing everybody that comes across it. No explanation as to why it is 50ft tall is given, but then that does not seem important here. Difficult to rate this one. On the one hand it's simply awful, in particular the "special" effects yet it is also hilariously and stupidly funny. It's fast paced with kills every ten minutes and they are pretty gory plus it has some gratuitous nudity. There is also a crazy Mayor, with a nod to Jaws. I have watched this for the last two Easters but will probably give it a miss for the next two. It's a case of being outrageously funny first time round but the laughs will wear thin with repeated viewings.

The Bad Things: E V ER Y T H I NG.

Good things: They tried I guess.

I usually pick movies to watch based solely on the title and dvd cover. I really need to start doing more research. I thought this would be a mildly entertaining, almost scary death fest. It was more like a Troma movie with slightly better production. I would have never even been able to guess that it was a rabbit. That being said, the last 10 minutes was really good. I actually laughed a couple times. There are worse killer Easter bunny movies.

The Beaster Bunny, or as it's called here "Beaster Day: Here Comes Peter Cottonhell" not sure who Peter Cottonhell is in the film, but I digress. The film is not great.

The plot is a bit rubbish, but I found that it fell together a little bit better than other ultra low budget films, it had conflicts between the two main characters, one arguing with her Father about getting a job, the other, Doug, believing he should have won employee of the year again.

The special effects were poor, but had a sort of low budget charm to them. The music was bad, and the acting wasn't great either, although you could tell there was an element of tongue in cheek. The ending felt a bit rushed too.

3/10: Mildly enjoyable low budget horror, with a somewhat unique villain and lots of kills.
