Fuck originality, we're just gonna use our magic 8-ball of cliched horror tropes and hope for the best. Basically these two girls are drunk and trying to get home and a series of dumb events leads them running afoul of Stabby the Clown. They interact with each other with the most ridiculous, stilted, porno-level dialogue ever just so the movie can pretend it has some sort of plot between gratuitous eviscerations. On so many occasions the characters behave so unnatural and idiotic simply because it makes the writers' jobs easier. Such as the stupid girl who never finishes off the clown on any of the many times she has the advantage over him. Or the other girl who finds a cut in half body in the basement, and just wanders about aimlessly for a good five minutes peering into dark corners instead of calling the police on her cellphone. It's just utter dreck of the basest degree pandering towards proto serial killers and/or Juggalos who get off on watching grotesque violence done to girls and dont really care about anything else. Rockus - Hated this. Part of me wanted to admire it for making a feature film for like 30 some thousand dollars but this hardly has anything redeeming about it. There are two gory kills that seem to be the only time theres much effort put into the movie, and there are just as many if not more moments that offset it by looking extremely cheap and inept, and the film overall looks really ugly. It strikes me as a film from someone who has watched a lot of horror movies but really doesnt have their own ideas for one. Though maybe thats for the best since so many of the choices here are extremely juvenile or just plain lazy. And even at only 80 minutes it still ends up being 20 minutes too long but I suppose thats what happens when youre trying to stretch a previously produced short into a feature length film. Then again there have been films that pulled that off rather well (Bottle Rocket, Shiva Baby) so no excuses. --- I've decided to put my fears behind me. I'm not going back. https://www.instagram.com/horror_obscurities/ ... Copied to Clipboard! |
