My quick rating 5,8/10. First off, let me start by saying I really like the TV show "Psych". OK, that being said, James Rhoday wrote and directed this which is already a plus in my book. For a first film, this offbeat comedy (much more comedy then horror by far) was actually pretty entertaining. Basically 3 people kidnap 6 people at a bar for the soul intention of eating them. And how casual and nonchalant this is makes the whole atmosphere that much funnier. The jokes are often inside jokes,and over the top but still funny. The gore does not disappoint in the slightest. Each death in this movie is original to say the least leading up to a pretty interesting climax. Look forward to more from him and maybe even a sequel?
This was a fun movie. I fully expected this to be really bad. (I didn't even really mean to watch this movie.) Instead, it was funny with good dialogue, good acting, gratuitous gore, and some wild meandering through the plot. I had no idea where this movie was gonna end up, but its fun qualities made it a great journey. It's not meant to be taken too seriously, and the writing is more intelligent than some people are giving it credit for. I don't understand where the low ratings come from. It's a dark COMEDY. It's not really trying to scare you. Don't listen to them. Watch it with an open mind and form your own opinion. We need more of that nowadays.
Psych Fans beware...this is NOT anything like Psych- it IS however and awesomely fun gorefest brought to us by a fabulous (and clearly influenced as a child by the awesomely fun and ridiculous 80's horror decade that made anyone who grew up in that decade slightly demented in a wonderful way) James Roday. If you love Evil Dead (all of them)Reanimator (and Bride of)Killer Clowns from OuterSpace,Fright Night, American Werewolf in London...goofy gore laden fun- then this is for you. I really enjoyed this movie. The cast was AMAZING there is not a single person in this that isn't fantastic. If weird, dark, sick, funny humor is your jam-then THIS is your jam. Keep an eye out for the LOL funny cameo by James and Dule which was the icing on the already delicious cake of a movie that this was. Check your morals and high standards at the door, kick back and enjoy.
A movie which does not dumb down its characters. Vocabulary is refreshingly in the upper echelon.. Annoyingly Roday has a doppelganger that looks EXACTLY like him and I'm guessing on purpose. (To trick people into thinking he has a big part - he doesn't) Actually made you feel a little sad for the baddie which is no easy feat. Was only going to give this a 5 cause cannibal gore flicks are not my deal but then got to thinking --There is not much to fault in this film except the lack of Psych characters. It is pretty original. That being said I give it an 8 out of 10.
This movie is twisted and wrong in all the right ways. Gravy is a fun movie with a lot of gore. It's a stoner flick at it heart. It smacks of Always Sunny, but leads with a Saw-esque theme that lacks the seriousness that most horror films take on. Nice job, cheers all around..!
