Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Spangelus I don't know what that other reviewer was smoking, but this movie is not just bad, it's dreadful. I have watched possibly every low-rent, low-budget horror movie that has ever been produced, and this ranks among the worst. It was only out of a sort of train wreck curiosity that I continued watching this movie after the first five minutes. The acting is awful, just completely rank in the most amateurish fashion... not to mention being subject to seeing a very unattractive woman expose herself to the camera. Look, I realize that overseas markets really go for breasts, but let's be honest here -- do we really want to see that? The entire film is just a disaster, from start to finish. It's amusing enough for the completely D grade cheesiness of it, but if you're looking for a good horror movie, this just doesn't measure up in any way, shape, or form.

heavyevidence It's rare now a days to pick up a movie at the local video rental outlet and then come home to find that it actually does the DVD's cover justice. It seems there are simply so many over hyped, boring & poorly done low budget films currently circulating on DVD. Recently I have ended up choosing movies based on labels out of previously garnered distrust, rather than relying on typical disappointing case artwork and story lines. It seemingly all adds up to just another "once bitten twice shy" perfect case in point for a frequent movie viewing skeptic like myself. However, this movie is different. WAY different. It's obvious 5 minutes into the film that you're witnessing as much chemistry in action as you are great character acting. This movie's cast just clicked and keeps clicking right to the end of a fast paced and anything but boring film. Each character reinforces the film's bottom line as was the case back "in the day" of the good old Black n Whites. Intriguing dialog and outstanding primary character development roll out during the film like a blood soaked, tightly rapped red carpet as it startles and slaps the unsuspecting feet of the viewer repeatedly. Nelson & Tucker work wonderfully as a team to bring out the best in their cast. They present an entertaining suspenseful story with a degree of sheer magnetic relativity that's undeniable. There is not one primary character actor in this movie that I won't be attentively watching for in the near future. Take a bow ladies & gentlemen for a job quite well done. This is a first class B horror film.

musicnj2005 As far as low budget independent horror movies go, this one is pretty good. Its clear a lot of love went into it, and its shortcomings all seem more due to financial constraints than any lack of talent (its limited locations, with nearly no establishing shots is amongst the easiest budget indicators). The characters (some acted much better than others) are all unique, and for once, not carbon copies of every other horror cast out there. Great dialogue ensues, and a great deal more character depth than most horror fare treats us too (those are good things, if you want mindless splatter, steer clear, this one actually has some depth to our pro and antagonists) While much of the movie is left in the dark (why are the psychos on this current run from the law, and why do they draw even more attention to themselves by killing friends and family along the escape route?, why is Aunt Rose a magical old hag, and why has no one ever stumbled on her monstrous son in their own home?) Long story short, great writing, decent (and sometimes great) acting, decent fx and bloodshed, couple pairs of really decent tits, and a lot more character driven story than the vast majority of DVD horror out there. The DVD itself is kinda dry, a dull behind the scenes feature with a few cute crew moments, and a few of the cut special effects, some deservedly deleted scenes, and nothing else. No trailers, no interviews, no commentary, but still definitely worth the rental.

HEFILM One of James Tucker's better films. Quirky acting, funny, odd, disturbing at times, he also edits his own projects and that's probably one of the stronger elements here, the pace moves quickly.The story is a combination of several types of films which keeps it fresh. The early going is a bit rough, some of the most poorly done scenes are right up front which makes one wonder why Anchor Bay bought the film since distributors supposedly only watch the first ten minutes and those are not good minutes in this movie. This opening sets up the groups of people who will end up at the mercy of "Auntie's" powers during the last 2/3rds of the story.The acting is uneven but most of the actors have their good moments. Dad is probably the best overall. Yes I guess it needs to be said this is a very low budget shot on video "film" the lighting is flat but at least there is none of the greenish or grainy lack of all quality that can happen with video.Worth renting for the well acted comedy scene where a topless would be actress character talks on and on about her "career." Brilliant.It's the story and unexpected, sometimes funny, sometimes gross turns the film takes that keeps it together along with the quirky actors who seem to make the most of the best moments in the movie, if not always making the most of the lesser moments. Tucker, as director could pick better angles to stage his scenes in, but certainly deserves credit for holding it all together.
