Big Monster on Campus

A teen finds he can return the dead to a living being. An entertaining movie with teen hormones. Take it as entertainment realizing there is no reality to it. An enjoyable but not serious experience. Worth watching. I may well view it again.

Thanks for bringing this classic to my attention , David. Whilst somewhat dated, now, it still contains all the ingredients to make it an absolute cult classic. This movie will move you, make you question life decisions and , futhermore , will will an indelible make on your psyche - the last movie to have this effect on me was Schindler's list, and to a slightly lesser extend, the Italian 70's classic that is Cannibal Holocaust.

Do yourself and those that you love a favour ; invite them around of movie night and emerse all in the beauty that is this movie . There will be tears , there will laughs, there will be unity.

Whilst not a conspiracy theorist I do believe the recent Beckham skit was designed to bring this move to the attention of the masses. Reynolds said this is his masterpiece. I disagree , this movie requires capital letters to emphasise. Reynolds , dear boy, this is your MASTERPIECE. To the end, David Beckham, the world thanks you.

I saw this film in the video under the release title "Boltneck". I was pleasantly surprised!! The film was funny, slick, and really well acted. A Fun Halloween Movie!! I rented with intentions of just "Killing Time" and ended up really enjoying it!!

I don't care what David Beckham says.This movie is an amazing bit of early naughts schlock.

I stumbled upon the 2000 movie "Big Monster on Campus" (aka "Boltneck") here in 2021 by random luck. I hadn't even heard about the movie prior to now as I sat down to watch it. But I saw that the movie had Ryan Reynolds on the cast list and on the cover, so of course I opted to sit down and watch this 2020 horror comedy from writer Dave Payne.

Well, "Big Monster on Campus" wasn't exactly a grand cinematic experience, that was for sure. But hey, the movie was watchable, despite it being a cheesy movie.

As for the storyline told in the movie, well it was semi-adequate. It was sort of a modern take on the classic Shelley's "Frankenstein" story, but with a hefty doze of teen-spirit added to it. So it was somewhat of an odd movie and an acquired taste really.

What impressed me about "Big Monster on Campus" was the cast ensemble. They had a heap of nice actors and actresses to participate in this movie. It was sort of fun to watch Ryan Reynolds in a movie such as this, and he was actually pulling off the movie nice enough. The movie also has the likes of Christine Lakin, Shelley Duvall, Richard Moll and Judge Reinhold on the cast list, so there is a good handful of proper talents in the movie.

While I managed to sit through directors Mitch Marcus and John Blush's 2000 movie, then it was not a movie that I will be fondly remembering or looking back upon. Nay, "Big Monster on Campus" was a bit too mundane and generic. And I bet that I will have forgotten about the movie come next week.

My rating of "Big Monster on Campus" lands on a very bland and mediocre five out of ten stars.
