Patchwork

Yes folks, if your a fellow fan of horror movies, your going to spot the obvious rip off, of Reanimator based on the classic H.P. Lovecraft short story: "Herbert West Reanimator."

It's a classic bring the dead back to life and combining body parts like this was explored in 'Bride Of Reanimator.'

Depressingly, Stuart Gordon or Lovecraft are given no credits to this obvious rip off, but where this one is worth the watch(it's amusing) is that the reanimated person has to deal with 3 to 4 personalities at a time which makes it interesting and the reanimated individual is still sentient and capable of more than zombie talk.

It only get's a 5/10 due to the fact it's well and truly been done before and to be honest a lot better with the Reanimator franchise but never the less some kind of guilty pleasure was saying: 'Yippee, more Reanimator.'

Worth a watch if only for the comedy value and for horror fans of Reanimator. Alas it doesn't feature any actors of the calibre of the great Jeffrey Coombs but with it's budget, would you honestly expect it?

Enjoy it for what it is.

Really surprising gem that I wasn't expecting! It isn't the best comedy-horror out there, but it was still pretty hilarious. It does take a little bit before it gets good, but it does get there so be patient with the beginning!

It does come in parts a little like an anthology, but it all ties together. Basically three women get sewn together using different parts of them to make a "Frankenstein-type" woman. You see segments of the final product and the hunt for the people who did this to them, but you also have segments where you see each individual woman's lives beforehand leading up to. It bounces around a bit, which is a little different. But not anything you can't keep up with.

What's great about it is all three woman are so opposite of each other, so seeing all three as one is pretty hilarious!

Definitely not over the top great, but it was a pleasant surprise with decent acting, bits of horror and lots of funny moments.

Also - Owlcat is the pet everyone needs!

"Patchwork" immediately caught my attention with its interesting and alluring movie cover/poster. I continued on to read the synopsis, and the movie still seemed to sound interesting still.

The movie starts out quite good and does prove to be quite interesting and entertaining. Well at least up until around midway or so, then the movie starts to lose its momentum and becomes somewhat of a more confusing and messy act. And it didn't really recover its former momentum and gained pacing again. And I must admit that from about halfway and to the end then my interest in the movie was fast dwindling, but I stuck with it to the end.

The concept of "Patchwork" was quite interesting, and it was a nice approach on a classic Frankenstein-story. However, the movie just didn't really stand out as being memorable. This is the type of movie that you will watch once, then am unlikely to return to it and watch a second time around.

I will say that the special effects in "Patchwork" was quite good, and there was some interesting make-up on the three young women whom were stitched together into one woman.

Tory Stolper (playing Jennifer), Tracey Fairaway (playing Ellie) and Maria Blasucci (playing Madeleine) were doing good jobs individually and together with their given roles, and they carried the movie quite nicely.

"Patchwork" is listed as a horror comedy, but there is very little elements of horror to be found in the movie, so it is more of a comedy with a pinch of horror spice added to it.

I must admit that I had somewhat higher hopes and expectations for "Patchwork" than what director and writer Tyler MacIntyre managed to deliver. As such, my rating of "Patchwork" ends on a very mediocre 5 out of 10 stars.

It's an alright movie, the whole movie is spent trying to figure out who did this to them. Which is quite obvious from the get go, then there is another layer added in the third act of this, which didn't add to much depth to the story aside padding it out.

The movie is spit up into several different acts, which gives the movie a nice chance to flesh everyone out, some of them are quite good but they don't really add much to the story. The big bad, I would liked to have seen more of, like what where they doing before this. You saw snippets but you never really get to deep dive into it, the best part for me was the girls interacting with each other and the love interest. The whole going on a rampage and killing random people, I didn't really get but it added more to the run time.

There was some really dumb stuff to, like running away from the lab. Where they got Frankensteined, only to go looking elsewhere for the person who did this. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense, overall it's a decent movie, not sure if I'd watch it again. Frankenhooker is a much better movie but it was a decent watch.

For the first 15-20 minutes, I thought this was the stupidest movie I've ever seen. But then it took a turn for the kooky, in a good way. Well acted and surprisingly funny. I expected there to be many negative reviews on this site from people who watched only the beginning but gave up, so I'm glad to see all the love.

That said, I think many viewers will not experience this the way I did, and won't appreciate its particular humor. But give it a try! There are small moments of refinement that show the makers paid attention to detail, from actress' facial expressions to an addition of music at unexpected moments (like a certain scene set in a frat house).
