AboveDeepBuggy Some things I liked some I did not.
PodBill Just what I expected
HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.
Leoni Haney Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
Michael Ledo Jonathon Poe (Stelio Savante) interviews and lives with "the Chef" (David Fine) a cannibalistic serial killer. The soundtrack, lighting, acting and plot are designed to place one on a boredom coma. Part of a 10 pack of DVDs, " Dark Disposition."Very tough to sit through. Good for 1 punch on the Hacker's card.
brechan I watched about 20 minutes of this movie before it became so irritating that I had to shut it off. The actors are delivering their lines so woodenly that is as though they are reading them from a teleprompter. I used the term "high school drama class"...but in fact, that would have actually been a major improvement. At least some of the people on screen would then have actually been actors. An incredibly stupid premise for an equally stupid movie. If you want to see a movie tied to Edgar Allen Poe, I would suggest 'The Raven'...as it actually uses genuine actors. It should come as no surprise that this 'direct to video' turkey would otherwise never have seen the light of day....If they had first shown it in theaters, they would have to have given the DVDs away for free...a it wouldn't even a bargain at that price.
shoutatthesky This is one of those movies where you find yourself wondering whether the financiers committed suicide upon seeing how much of a disaster the project turned out to be. Apart from the wooden acting, the continuity sucks, the premise is just stupid and unbelievable, and did I mention the acting is terrible. Its not often that I can't make it through at least half of a film - just in case it just got off to a bad start and improves in the second half. This film however, only held me for about 20 minutes and that was all I could take. So to sum up - this is the worst film I have ever seen on every measure you want to consider. Please don't even waste your time watching the trailer. The only possible use this film could have is as a replacement for water-boarding. You have been warned!
alshwenbear1 I own about 3,000 movies, I have watched movies from the beginning of my time, and I am not a such a young person, so, it's so easy to define a terrible waste of time like "Poe". The acting is like watching cardboard character (s), often it seems like they have the script in front of their eyes and away from the camera, it is like they keep rehearsing instead of filming, if this is a low budget film, it does not justify the effort! If you'd like to give it a shot, have the lights on, look at the screen from time to time, then read a book or a magazine,walk to the kitchen and fix a sandwich, without pausing this movie, there's nothing to miss believe me! If you watch this you may ending up saying "Okidoki" and not in a good way! And I changed my vote from two stars to one star, just to emphasize how bad this movie is.
