Member GwaiLoMoFo Posted October 10, 2008 Member Share Posted October 10, 2008 I had heard nothing about this before watching it, just thought the title and cover looked promising. It turned out to be a great throwback to the 80's style of horror/comedies like House & Evil Dead 2. Funny, well directed, good production values, decent acting..... and Robert Englund (who was kick ass) as a bonus! I loved the fact that they use physical special effects and not one oz of cgi. They put some work in on this one and it shows. I had a blast watching this film! Easily could turn this in a series of films, I hope they do.

Member Morgoth Bauglir Posted October 10, 2008 Member Share Posted October 10, 2008 Robert Englund can fight?! I did not know that. You sold me when you say "I loved the fact that they use physical special effects and not one oz of cgi". I put it on my netflix queue. it is # 73 on the list:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Mark Pollard Posted October 10, 2008 Member Share Posted October 10, 2008 I'll have to check this out. I saw some footage that actually looked far more polished than the cover art suggests. You never know what you're getting with movies co-starring Robert Englund. The only consistency seems to be varying amounts of black humor.

Member GwaiLoMoFo Posted October 11, 2008 Author Member Share Posted October 11, 2008 Robert Englund can fight?! I did not know that. No I dont think he can, at least not in this film. He's the main supporting actor, not the lead/title character. You sold me when you say "I loved the fact that they use physical special effects and not one oz of cgi". I hate the look of CGI in horror films. They used plenty of rubber, latex and caro syrup in this one. You never know what you're getting with movies co-starring Robert Englund. The only consistency seems to be varying amounts of black humor. Most of the humor comes from Englunds character. But I thoroughly enjoyed his performance throughout.
