Fright Fest

Where to start?

Thankfully it's only 87 minutes long. Any longer would have been cruel and unusual punishment, and I haven't done anything wrong!

The script is bad. The music is bad. The direction is non-existent. The special effects and makeup are awful. There is no acting ability on display whatsoever.

Avoid at all costs and find something better to do with your 87 minutes.

I like all kinds of movies. They don't have to be cinematic masterpieces or high budget films for me to enjoy them.

That being said, this was horrible. These 10 star "rave" reviews have to be fake. If somebody actually did like this boring, plodding mess it should still only rate a 6, maybe 7, tops.

Nothing was interesting, yet I stuck it out until the end thinking maybe it was a reverse horror flick, in that the body of the movie was bad and the ending would somewhat redeem it (as opposed to the more prominent opposite). Nope.

The only thing I could think of that was remotely positive was Pancho Moler's performance. I mean, I like Dylan Walsh, but even his character didn't interest me.

No, this was lame, predictable (which generally isn't bad in itself but didn't help this movie's case), and pointless to watch. The ending was just as bad as the rest of the film, and felt like it was going to continue for a couple more minutes yet just stopped. I couldn't even handle watching it straight through, I had to break it up between two nights of viewing.

So don't believe the 10 star ratings. If, by some miraculous universal paradox you did find this entertaining, then it still wouldn't be worth a 10. I absolutely hate coming on here and seeing those kinds of pandering reviews since they ruin any kind of fair representation. Which is usually when I decide to add my own.

That's why this is here. To let you know that this boring sludge fest is nowhere near close to being a "perfect horror masterpiece" no matter what your tastes are.

Ok This film isn't going to win Oscars for best acting or directing. But it's great mindless watching for Halloween! People giving bad reviews would be right to but I think it's just a Hollywood diversion type of flick and not supposed to be an art movie of any kind, it is what it is. Saying that it was very cliche and the sleezy director types really rubbed me up the wrong way. I don't like this depection of a director as it gives other filmmakers a bad name. But it's a pretty fun film.

I've never felt compelled to write a review until this. Everything, editing; story; music; acting; and production are awful! I'd be embarrassed to put this out as a media studies project. Seriously, the worst film I've seen in memory.

It obviously isn't meant to be a serious horror movie, but overall the acting was bland, the plot poorly executed, and the jokes not funny. Leave this on in the background for white noise, I guess. It's a typical B movie with nothing particularly special about it.
