Bury the Bride

I had only heard about the title of this movie, but didn't know what the movie was about. And thus, as I happened to stumble upon the movie here in 2024, of course I opted to sit down and watch it, since it was a horror movie that I hadn't already seen. Given my life-long romance with the horror genre, of course I needed no persuasion to sit down and watch "Bury the Bride".

The storyline in the movie is pretty straightforward, though the movie does take a much needed change of direction and pacing around 38 minutes into the ordeal. Writers Krsy Fox and Spider One, with the former also directing and starring in the movie, put together a fair enough script. Sure it wasn't a revolutionary script or narrative, but it proved to be entertaining enough for what it turned out to be.

However, I have to say that it was a bit difficult to buy into the part of the storyline that June (played by Scout Taylor-Compton) would be marrying David (played by Dylan Rourke), because the two characters were just so very, very far apart in terms of types of characters.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, aside from Krsy Fox and Scout Taylor-Compton. It was a rather small cast ensemble, but the actors and actresses definitely put on good performances and carried the movie nicely.

The special effects in "Bury the Bride" were good, and definitely served the movie well.

Watchable, sure, but "Bury the Bride" is hardly a movie that I will return to watch a second time, as there simply isn't enough contents to the script and storyline to support more than just a single viewing.

My rating of "Bury the Bride" lands on a five out of ten stars.

Bury the Bride (2023) is a movie that was recently added to Tubi. The storyline follows a bachelorette party in the middle of nowhere where the groom lives. Things get out of hand when the groom, and his friends, appear with their own intentions for the bachelorette party.

This movie is directed by Spider One (Allegoria) and stars Scout Taylor-Compton (Halloween), Krsy Fox (Underworld Evolution), Dylan Rourke (Jezebel), Lyndsi LaRose (Ant-Man) and Chaz Bono (American Horror Story).

This is a rare Tubi Original that I actually enjoyed. The storyline, setup and settings were good and the plot took a twist I wasn't expecting that was surprisingly good. The horror elements were solid with some good gore, blood splatter, biting and flesh ripping. The diversity of the villains were good. There were a couple frustrating decisions by the characters, but not enough to not enjoy the movie. The ending was okay too.

Overall, this is an average, to slightly above average, addition to the horror genre that's worth a watch for horror enthusiasts. I would score this a 5.5-6/10 and recommend seeing it once.

Hmmmm it has promise. But it's a bit unbelievable that the main actress would be marrying that guy. Not so much because of his looks. It's how he treats people. Seems very uneducated. Makes it hard to believe that the main actress would fall for that. Seems very forced in our faces lol. It does have promise the actual Plot. But nah. I would not rate it a 10. I think I am being more than generous rating it a 5. I do Like somewhat of the suspense scenes. Hmm makes me wonder what's going to happen who will live and die at the end. Which of course I have my theories.

Lolol

Five women from SoCal travel to a remote hunting cabin for an unorthodox bachelorette party. The filthy cabin is owned by the redneck fiancé of June (Scout Taylor-Compton) and he unexpectedly shows up with several of his hick friends for an unforgettable night.

"Bury the Bride" (2023) is cabin-in-the-woods horror helmed by the younger brother of Rob Zombie, Michael David Cummings (aka Spider One), who's the frontman of the band Powerman 5000. Like his brother, he features his spouse/partner in his movies, which is Krsy Fox (Sadie).

Despite the skankiness of Lyndsi LaRose's character, Carmen, she's a highlight on the female front; very stunning. Thankfully, Scout Taylor-Compton's June is more winsome and takes second place.

To appreciate this flick, you have to be able to stomach the white-trash-in-the-sticks horror of "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and typical Rob Zombie flicks. It combines the cabin-in-the-woods setting with bits of "Deliverance" and films that I can't name because I don't want to give anything away. Let's just say that the surprise at the 38-minute mark works well and there are a few genuine scares, as well as effective spookiness.

The movie runs 1 hour, 23 minutes, was shot in Los Angeles.

GRADE: B-

This is by no means a great movie. But, it moves right along with the thrills, and if you just want to have some mindless fun and yell, "kill 'em you idiot!" at the screen, it's not a bad choice for a midnight movie.

It's a horror movie that takes place at a remote cabin, like countless others in this genre. ('Cabin in the wilderness' is a sub-genre of its own at this point!) Leave it at that and try not to read the full description so you don't know where it's going, if you can. That's all that needs saying. I thought I'd throw in a review that makes an argument for watching 'Bury' if you're in the right mood. Peace.
