Silent But Deadly

I saw Silent but Deadly for free on my video on demand satellite and I wish I could get those 90 minutes back. The movie was just terrible. The CGI is horrible and not even unintentionally funny, it's just really bad.

It uses all the cheap comedy clichés of casting a topless bimbo and even a little person. Didn't casting little people for a cheap laugh go out of style in the eighties or something? I remember when Bizarre used to use little people for cheap gags all the time and even then it was wrong. I can just see the writers/directors/producers of Silent but Deadly saying "Hey you know what would be hilarious? If the sheriff was a midget! That's funny right? Because they're shorter than us?" Everyone in this movie should be ashamed. The thing is you know the actors weren't even paid well because this movie was obviously made for like a few thousand dollars. Pat McKenna is the only recognizable person in this other than Jason "Jay and Silent Bob" Mewes and I have no idea why he is stooping this low when he has been in real movies and TV shows.

Jason Mewes I am not surprised to see in anything but I'm still very surprised this is the biggest pay check his agent could scrape up for him. I have never been a fan of his work or his comedy but at least he is in some big budget stuff. I have to say he is the only character in this movie I didn't hate, maybe because he doesn't really talk. He is much less annoying than he is in Kevin Smith's movies.

The rest of the cast is terrible, especially the jerky cameraman who can't act at all, and the bimbo I already mentioned who can't even deliver her lines or die properly. The CGI in that scene alone is so horrible I am convinced they had students do it for free. Avoid this movie at all costs, it is not funny and you won't even laugh at how bad it is, it is too pathetic even for that.

I'm disappointed I didn't find this little gem of a comedy/horror before 2017,but,in my defence I do live in Australia and movies can sometimes take a while before they are released here or they can never be released on the aussie market,but find it I did and I had a ball watching it.The CGI is deliberatley poor and as such it suits this offering well and adds to the laughs.The camera work is well done but the true joy of this movie is the comedic acting,never over acted and a joy to watch.Jordan Prentice is simply wonderful as the little person sherrif and with Benz Antoine as his straightman deputy the combo really works well,in fact the entire cast work well together as a whole.but for me the highlight is Kim Poirier,who is wonderfully funny with a great laugh,beautiful,and seen in all her natural glory,that alone was worth watching.I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and would easily recommend it to any comedy/horror fan,definately a watch again and again movie.

This is a pointless and stupid movie. Very predictable, terrible acting, awful jokes, zero production value, the worst CGI I've ever seen, this is just stupid.

Let me start off by saying I am a horror nut, I can watch horrors anytime of the day or night. This horromedy slightly succeeds in the comedy aspect of this horror, but the blatant cgi effects makes this movie look cheap, kinda like those syfy movies. The plot is simple enough, local goat-lover kills family then goes on a mini and mildly entertaining killing spree. The comedy here is provided by a duo of local cops investigating the murders, there a chuckle here and there but not nearly enough to salvage a horror movie that looks like they spent all of 50,000 to make. The majority of the kills are cgi and does not look real AT ALL. The cinematography is OK, the acting for what its worth was OK, the movie was not.

This movie is awful.

The actors are all awful. Especially Jason Mewes who is probably just there for a quick pay check.

The writing is awful. The story doesn't even make sense but worse than that all the characters are unlikable and stupid. Logic flies out the window. And even worse than that it's not even funny with zero laugh out loud moments in the whole movie.

There's nothing good about this movie. They even stoop to doing littler person jokes like we are supposed to just laugh because the sheriff is a little person? How is that funny?

The hero of the story is a camera man who just seems like a d-bag and who also is not funny.

I thought I recognized the stupid bimbo from the nude slasher shoot scene so I looked her up and it is Nicole Arbour who did that fat shaming video and that was her 15 minutes of fame where everyone hated her and she got blasted on The View then never heard from again. It's nice to see her in this getting two lines to say and shaking her boobs around for the few people who actually will see this movie, guess she'll be doing porn movies soon. She's actually pretty good looking. Then again this movie is from 7 years ago so who knows now.

One last thing the CGI and effects in this movie are a total disaster. With the few slasher scenes they had why not just do practical effects that aren't super expensive in small scenes like this? The CGI is so clumsy and cheap looking it is literally like they did it in a high school's A/V club room with whatever software it is that comes with most computers.

All this could be forgiven if the movie was at least funny accidentally, you know like other movies that are so bad they're good because at least you can laugh at them (like Troll 2 etc), but this is never funny that way, it's just a sad movie that has no real point existing.
