Bury the Bride

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

Recommend if bored.....

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-

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.

So, these characters make some dumb choices. And then they make really dumb decisions. I mean how did you not miss the stupidity of the choices. Women on a bachelorette party have the groom and his backwater friends stop by to "meet and greet." The problem is, these guys (groom included) are obvious rejects from Deliverance, but this only seems disturbing to one of the women, and abrasive for a couple others. Once the intentions of the men are clear, things make more sense on one hand, but all the more unreasonable for the original question of "How did the women choose to get into this situation?" Nothing new then happens but standard tropes of this type of isolated backwater situation. The end isn't too surprising and has an underwhelming tone. Overall, I believe I only fast forwarded about 10 minutes toward the end to avoid the mind numbing chase scene.

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.
