Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
wolfskindancer Given the other comment on this movie, I would like to say that I am not affiliated with the writer/director or any cast of this film. I did, however, register on IMDb just because this comment had to be made. I also must say that this is one of the greatest "get a bunch of friends together and make a movie" films I have ever seen. It is campy, made on a shoestring budget and not very technical at all. That said, if you can just get over those things and come at it with the will to have fun, you will enjoy John Johnson's cheesy monster flick.The reasons? What monsters do you like in your movies? This movie has gory zombies, sexy vampires, a mad scientist and various assorted freaks. It has the talents of scream queens like Debbie Rochon and Brinke Stevens.The number one reason I love this film is the character Neil. He has already seen the movie, and in fact is kind of a fanboy who is watching the movie along with you in his bathroom. Occasionally he pauses the film to tell you what just went on and why it is absolutely awesome. For this experience alone this movie is well worth watching.Don't take the movie or yourself too seriously and just enjoy it.
Francis ***SPOILER ALERT*** This movie sucks scrotum... cause I can't say B*LLSMay I just say that I have seen not only one, but TWO separate versions of this film... and I don't even know these people. As a supporter of poorly made films and people that live within a 100 mile radius of me, I feel it only appropriate to see what's going on in the community. This movie makes me feel like I should be doing something in the film making business. That first comment was pretty spot on, though i must admit the main villain in the movie is played well by... whomever the fk he was. Also, the villain I am talking about is the scientist that sings about man-bags. This movie had too many damn villains, but no real plot. I think that was the problem. Also, I don't care if Matt Damon or Ben Affleck were in this or not, that plot could not have been worse if J.J. Abrams had produced it.Now with all the insults that I have said, may I just say that I love movies that come from fecal matter. So if you are into movies that are less creative than George Lucas then this is right up your alley.
esparks-5 How can you NOT love this movie? Have I watched so many "bad movies" that I am brain-washed? No, maybe I have watched so many GREAT independent films that my mind has been opened to the awesomeness of low budget independent film. I think John Johnson did an awesome job with this movie. I laughed my ass off watching it the first time. And you know what? I laughed my ass off watching it for the 7th time the other night when I showed it to a friend. If you're so uptight that you can't relax and have a good time with this movie I feel bad for you. Sorry Matt Damon and Ben Affleck aren't running around high budget scenery dealing out jokes. If that is what you're looking for, don't look here. If you are looking for a genuinely funny movie watch this. John Johnson does a great job acting also. He pulls off what reminds me of a Bruce Campbell-like fighting yourself scene in the hotel room which I really loved. Neal, who goes from the bathtub viewer that's watching the movie with you to actually being IN the movie is hilarious and keeps the laughs rolling along. My personal favorite is Dr. Noches played by Jay Barber. He is hilarious and did a great job with his part.I don't get why people complain about lighting and camera work. THIS IS AN INDEPENDENT MOVIE! Some of the best movies I have ever seen have poor lighting, bad camera work and non-famous actors. Everyone I have played this movie for LOVES IT! Maybe I am just lucky and have a very open minded, cool group of friends.
D-Sligar OMG! This film looks like a home movie, but worse. The first comment, and only comment, I read hyped it up a bit, though I'm positive now that it had to have been the director or writer. There appeared to have been no post-production work at all done on this, so you have very bad lighting effects, abysmal audio quality, and just plain shoddy cuts throughout. If the first comment suckered you into watching even a few minutes of this film, please click the little button that says it didn't help you at all so that it will get bumped out and won't sucker more poor souls into thinking about checking it out.I have seen some really, really bad movies in my time and this one takes the cake. Realistically, it should have stayed on the Internet and never made it to a real DVD. Don't even bother looking for this int he bargain bins at your local Dollar Store, since I don't think they're that dumb. I don't know how best to warn you about this so let me sum it up:1. Sound - They appeared to have used the built-in mic on the $300 camera they shot the film with. Background/ambient music is campy at best, more like something you'd hear at a circus. 2. Video - Poor lighting, bad angles, no post-production, just plain home video-esquire. I've seen better fan films than this. 3. Acting - Non-existent, plain and simple. There are times when the "actors" (I really shouldn't tarnish the title actor by applying it to anyone in this film), actually stop what they're doing to see what's supposed to be happening. 4. Story - Not there, very choppy and jumps all over the place.Do not waste your time with this poor excuse for a campy horror comedy. They tried to throw in a little kin here and there, but come on, even that doesn't save the film unless you want to see a little amateur boob action. If you do happen to become a victim of this film, please vote so we can bump the canned votes off that try to hype the film.Man! I need to watch something good to erase the dreadful memory of this nuked film! Maybe a little YouTube action will help, since the acting and stories are so much better.
