Scream 7 Film SPOILRR FILLED Film Review

There are alot of films that cause controversy when there being made and heck some even cause it after they've been made. Yet the film that i'm going to be talking to you all today is one of the only films to have controversy about before it even entered development with this film being one that really is either going to be a massive hit or a huge flop either one will fracture a fanbase that really wasn't divided before this film was in development and so then join me as I give you my SPOILER FREE review that sees Neve Campbell make her grand return with the film in question being called simply just "Scream 7" enjoy.

The plot of this film is a few years after the events of Scream VI Sidney has to survive new killings when Ghostface starts targeting her and her family in there new home of Pine Grove. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this film was in all honesty not that bad with the plot of this film being about as good as it was ever going to be giving all of the issues that plagued the film behind the scenes and yet it's a wonder that the films plot was as good as it was as while yes this films plot was a very basic and bare bones plot but in saying this tho that's all it needed to be as not every slasher film needs to challenge you and needs to be this thought provoking film as sometimes just being a dumb slasher film is more then enough and that is very much the case with this film as while yes granted Scream VI did have the better plot but it was also so far removed from being a Scream plot that it might as well have been called something else and the film would have worked just as well where as here in this film the plot is only something that you could do in Scream as it is the typical Scream plot with pretty much nothing new added to it however tho this films plot does feel alot less well thought out then the plots of the previous two Scream films this is despite the fact that the creator of this franchise Kevin Williamson not only co-wrote this film along with returning writer Guy Busick but he also served as this films director on top of that with the plot of this film being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this film is Neve Campbell as Sidney Prescott-Evans , Isabel May as Tatum Evans and Jasmin Savoy Brown as Mindy Meeks-Martin. Also starring in this film is Mason Gooding as Chad Meeks-Martin , Anna Camp as Jessica Bowden , Michelle Randolph as Madison , Jimmy Tatro as Scott , Mckenna Grace as Hannah Turman , Asa Germann as Lucas Bowden , Celeste O'Connor as Chloe Parker , Sam Rechner as Ben Brown , Mark Consuelos as Robbie Rivers , Tim Simons as George Willis , Joel McHale as Mark Evans , Ethan Embry as Marco Davis , Kraig Dane as Karl Gibbs , Courteney Cox as Gale Weathers and Roger L. Jackson as The Voice Of Ghostface.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this film was in all honesty really good. With this being something that was quite shocking as Kevin Williamson hasn't really directed anything before now and therefor nobody would have any clue of what to expect from this film from an acting point of view and while yes there are some scenes that are better acted then others that is something that could also be said for any film and isn't an issue that's exclusive to this film with the films returning actors proving once again why they are so good in these film and heck all three of them are the best actors in the whole entire film as Neve Campbell , Courteney Cox , Jasmin Savoy Brown , Mason Gooding and Roger L. Jackson have just such a good handle on there characters with Neve , Courtney and Roger being able to play there characters in there sleep and Jasmin and Mason being just as good as they were in the previous two Scream films as well but that's not to knock the films debuting actors either as they are really good in this film it's just that for obvious reasons there not as good as the films returning actors with the acting that's in this film not really being helped buy the fact that the script for the film is so bad as it gives none of this films actors absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there actual characters personalities are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does harm the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.

While the films returning characters are handled about as well as you'd expect with them acting how you expect them to where the film does falls apart character wise is with it's newer characters. As while the older characters are handled perfectly fine the same thing cannot be said for the films newer character as there's nothing memorable about this films new characters with alot of them just being so bland and generic even Tatum who has nothing that makes her standout as a character outside of who she's named after and her her mother is and that's it with it feeling like the makers of this film really couldn't be bothered to come up with new and even passable characters as they all just feel like rip offs of characters that we saw in other Scream movies and whilst this can be a good thing as it can be used to connect to sets to films together in ways that are fun and creative here they don't even do that with the characters so much so that it's hard to tell just who Tatum's friends are with the same thing even being true for the friend group in Scream 5 as well which is something that does mean that this is an issue with other Scream films and yet the co-writer of that film also returned to co-write this film and he didn't really learn his lesson on h0ow to create good side characters with this having the adverse effect of making us the audience not really care for any of Tatum's friends when they do start getting killed off as the makers of this film never really gave us a reason to care for them in the first place as they all feel like an afterthought almost as if they were added into the films script at the last possible minuet as that's how badly done that they are.

SPOILERS START HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Look there's no possible way to talk about this film without mentioning in some detail the so called controversy that's surrounding this film. As the star of the last two films Melissa Barrera who was pretty much in negations to return for this film was let go from the film after a post of her's from X went viral i'm not going to say what the the post was about or what it related but let's just say that it had something to do with a conflict that's far more complex and complicated that what anyone possibly understands with the company that now owns the Scream franchise Spyglass Media choosing not to bring her back for this film this was something that her fans just can't wrap there heads around as even tho there is a video of her confessing that she was only ever contracted to do the two Scream movies and the fact that this film hadn't even begun pre-production when all of this went down they still seem to think that she was both fired and blacklisted from Hollywood with things made worse when you take into account that the original director for the film left the film after his vision for the film fell apart when Jenna Ortega then chose to leave with the original writer and director for this film Christopher Landon later saying that he also left the film due to the fact that he received death threats and yet the people who are still on X right now saying to boycott this film are still trying to get it boycotted because of the stuff with Melissa and yet not one of them was saying boycott Scream VI when that same production refused to pay franchise icon Neve Campbell what she wanted for being in the film in the first place which is one thing but then alot more of them would start posting spoilers for this film online which is never a cool thing to do as half of the fun of a Scream film is working out who did it and one of the things that they posted spoilers for was who the killers for the film are.

Back to more pleasant things we actually do have alot more returnee's for this film as we have Matthew Lillard as Stu Macher , Laurie Metcalf as Nancy Loomis , Scott Foley as Roman Bridger and David Arquette as Dewey Riley all back in this film. With the film actually bringing them back in a creative way by having this films Ghostfaces use AI to bring them back as a way to taunt Sidney which regardless of what you think about AI on the whole is a pretty creative idea as AI can be used to create these lifelike images that could very easily trick those that aren't used to looking at a fake image and make them think that someone that they thought was dead is now coming back to get them with the only things that let the idea down being the fact that it does come at the expense of making Sidney look dumb as she does with her heart of hearts believe that Stu is back even tho she was the one that caused him to die in the first place and the fact being that the film doesn't take as full advantage of that idea as it could have done as they pretty much right away let you know that it's an AI image of Stu and not the real person when it would have been more effective to not have Gale or anyone mention that it's a fake image just to so that way they can have us the audience wonder for a little bit longer if it really is him or not only for them to reveal during the films lackluster third act that it's a fake image by then having all of the other dead characters appear as that way you keep Sidney your main protagonist from looking dumb and you get to use this pretty cool idea to as full advantage as you could possibly do at the same time.

Whilst this film is a good film there's no question about that two of the fatal things that it gets wrong is the fact that they don't give you clues as to who the killers are and the fact that the killers in this film are nobody characters essentially. As it's gets revealed that the killers in this film are Sidney's neighbour Jessica Bowden and Marco Davis who is someone who worked at a mental institution with both characters not really getting much screen time before the big reveal infact Jessica only gets about two scenes throughout the whole film before she's revealed and Marco gets one and that's it say what you will about the reveals in the last film but at the very least those killers actually got alot more screen time outside of the Ghostface costume with things being made all the more worse when you take into account that the makers of this film don't really take the time to give us the audience any clues as to who the killers are with the only thing that comes close to a clue being the fact that the images of Stu are AI and Tatum's boyfriend is working with an AI programme and that's it and even thar clue is huge misdirect in the grand scheme of things and yet when you go back to the first film there are plenty of clues as to who the killers of that film as the makers of that film knew that it was well and good to have plenty of kills but they mean nothing if the mystery isn't good and therefor they gave Billy and Stu those little moments where they would sneak a sly little look here and there at each other or one of them would say something that would act as cue for the other one to get into place thus allowing us the audience to piece it together ourselfs and yet here in this film due to the fact that the characters share about five minuets total screen time before getting unmasked none of that happens.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and forty seven minuets and twenty eight seconds. Which is a pretty short amount of time for this film to have as alot of the Scream ones even the bad ones last alot more closer to two hours with it feeling like that this film had a shorter running time so that Spyglass or Paramount Pictures could fit in more screenings of the film and thus earn more money from the film which isn't a bad idea in practice and yet in reality it's doesn't work as while the film does have the right amount of plot there to cover that amount of running time in the first place the film doesn't take the time to fully develop it's plot as the film does have to rush from plot to point without taking the time that it really needed to get there more naturally with this being due to he fact that the film does have a shorter running time with this being something that does also effect the films character development as while it's understandable that none of the returning characters would get character development as they have the previous films to get there character development yet none of the films new characters get any which is something that does make it harder to for us the audience to buy into any of this films new characters as none of Tatum's friends have anything that makes them stand out and be there own person whilst we know just as much about Tatum coming out of the the film then we did coming into the film with this being something that could have been fixed by giving the film a longer running time and yet as the makers of this film are more bothered about giving us exact scenes from the first Scream movie it does mean that both the plot and characters can't that well developed but I really will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho. 

So now then as this is a slasher film that really does mean that I have to actually talk a bout the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally tought / felt that the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With the films kills being the best apart of the film itself as we do get to see some really cool looking kills in the film with alot of the films being really creative and fun kills with us getting to see Ghostface kill people in some unique locations something which does make the kill in this film feel unique and while yes there is only so much that you can do with a person stabbing someone this film does find new ways to stop that from being boring with the best kill in the film oddly enough being the kill of the first Ghostface as there are technically three of them in this film with this first one getting killed about halfway into the film when Gale hits him with her car and while that might not sound like much what does set it apart is the build up to the kill itself as we get to see Ghostface stalk both Sidney and Tatum in there home with the girls walking inbetween the walls of there house to try and get out all the while Ghostface is stabbing into the wall to try and get them with him even catching Sidney in the arm at one point and while the girls do eventually get away thanks to the help of Mark it's Gale who gets the killing blow as she comes screeching in and hits him with her car thus killing him which is something that we haven't seen in any of the Scream films with that scene also serving as a pretty cool entrance for both Gale and the Meeks-Martin twins as well as being a really cool kill in it's own right in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

SPOILERS END HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Overall this film isn't as bad as the critics score on Rotten Tomatoes will have you believe as while yes it is the weaker of the newer Scream films that's not something that anyone will deny it's also not bad as Scream 3 as this film is still at the very least trying to be a decent Scream film with the film more then earning it's currently 78% audience score of Rotten Tomatoes as that's how good that this film is in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review that really does mean that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 7.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in his very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film really are up and on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all really very fairly high quality and as well as being as really very fairly high definition as well and so then horror fans we end this review as we always do with really our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some really very unpleasant dreams.

Scream VI Film Review

Regardless of how you feel about the movie we are now just a few short days away from the release of Scream 7. Yet alot of the folks over on X remain just as divided on that film as ever with alot of people hating the idea of existing and others such as myself being genuinely excited to see the new film as it's the latest entry in a series that we all love and yet now the film that i'm going to be talking to you all about is being dragged in the mud for quite literally no reason what so ever so then join me as I review the film that sees Ghostface join Jason in taking New York with the film in question being called simply just "Scream VI" enjoy.

The plot of this film is one year after the events of the first film Sam , Tara , Chad and Mindy and a new group of friends including a returning Kirby and Gale find themselves at the centre of new Ghostface killings and have to find who he killer or killers are before it's to late.  Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this film was in all honesty really good with the makers of the film making the very wise choice to move the action away from Woodsboro as there only so many times that you can return there before it starts to get dull and boring and moving the action to New York means that the film can have this bigger plot where te killer can come out of anywhere something which the film does take full advantage of and while yes this film plot is the typical Scream plot it's what it does with that plot and set up that makes it interesting as having the whole plot effectively centre around the sisterly bond between Sam and Tara is something that does set this film apart as e get to see both character deal with the trauma of the previous film in there own way and while yes it would have been better if the film did have a much more stronger plot to it as the film doesn't really focus on it's plot all that much with the film picking up and dropping it's plot quite alot of the time it's when the film focuses on it's plot that it's story gets to be really interesting and intriguing with the plot of this film also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring inn this film is Melissa Barrera as Sam Carpenter , Jenna Ortega as Tara Carpenter and Jasmin Savoy Brown as Mindy Meeks-Martin. Also starring in this film is Jack Champion as Ethan Landry , Henry Czerny as Christopher Stone , Mason Gooding as Chad Meeks-Martin , Liana Liberato as Quinn Bailey , Dermot Mulroney as Wayne Bailey , Devyn Nekoda as Anika Kayoko , Tony Revolori as Jason Carvey , Josh Segarra as Danny Brackett , Skeet Ulrich as Billy Loomis , Samara Weaving as Laura Crane , Hayden Panettiere as Kirby Reed , Courteney Cox as Gale Weathers and Roger L. Jackson as The Voice Of Ghostface.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this film was in all honesty really good. With this being something that's not really all that surprising as alot of this films actors are a bunch of really good actors with this being something that is proven again in this film due to the fact that there's not a single bad performance in the whole film that doesn't mean to say that there aren't scenes that could have had better acting in them it just means that the quality of the acting in the film as a whole is one that's really quite high and heck any film has scenes in them that don't have as good acting when compared to the rest of the film but here in this film you can tell that all of the films actors both returning and new have a level of care and respect for this franchise as they all do give it there best and because of that we do get new characters that feel perfectly well cast and performances that fit the film perfectly with the best actor in the whole entire film being Melissa Barrera which yes might be a cliche thing to say but it is also the most truest thing that you could say about this film from an acting point of view as she really does nail the role of Sam Carpenter down perfectly with her scenes with Jenna being alot of the best non kill scenes in the film with the acting that's in this very film really being helped by the fact that the script for this film is just so good that all this films actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance ill come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting thats in this very film.

Where this film really does shine is in it's characters as be they old characters or newly introduced characters this film does have some well done characters. With characters like Kirby and Sam being a good example of just how good that this films characters are as Kirby feels like how she did in Scream 4 with her retaining her wit and love of horror movies only ow she has the expirence of knowing what it's like to go through a Ghostface attack thanks to the events of the fourth film with the same thing also being true for the character of Sam as well as thanks to the events of the previous film she's now become to over protective of Tara so much so that it gets to the point where it's starting to drive a wedge between them something which does actually form the characters arc for this film as she has to learn not to be so overprotective of her sister with this being something that does make for an interesting change in her character as it does make sense that after almost being killed by someone that she would want to protect her sister due to the fact that these attacks could and in this case do happen again with both Chan and Mindy not really having any character growth inbetween the two films with them both being the same comedic relief characters that they were in the previous film with the only difference now being that Chad has a thing for Tara and that's it with the writing for the rest of the characters being fine but nothing that's to out there with both Quinn and Ethan being serviceable characters and you can't really get Gale wrong as there are five other films that pretty much tell you how to write her character with the only somewhat badly written character being Wayne Bailey and even then it's mostly due to the fact that he's not in the film all that much in the first place. 

Pretty much since the release of Scream 4 fans had been wondering what happened to Kirby as for one reason or another this character just struck a chord with them. With this film being the film that brought her back into the franchise to not only reveal that she survived the events of the fourth film but thrived because of it with her becoming an FBI agent so that she can track down and stop other potential Ghostface attacks from happening in the first place which in theory isn't a bad idea but when you take into account that she missed the previous film it is something that makes you wonder if she was good at her job due to the fact that she missed a whole slate of killings one of which included someone that she may or may not have gotten close to even the fourth film and also featured the death of someone that she would have been close to in Dewey and while yes it was great that the makers of this film did indeed listen to the fans and gave them exactly what they wanted they opened up a whole other can of worms by NOT explaining where she was during the events of Scream 2022 as she is someone who does have interest in these Ghostface killings so she would therefor want to help out when a new set of killings happens in her own hometown but credit where it is due it was fun seeing her interact with Mindy as even tho they are both the Randy character of there group of friends they do have some great banter together that do help to make this film be more entertaining as you never really know just what it is that there going to say or do next but whilst her banter with Mindy was really good it's the fact that the makers of this film don't take the time to explain why she wasn't in the previous film as they go out of there way to explain why Sidney isn't in this film and yet for Kirby they don't do that this is despite the fact that they went out of there way to bring the character back in the first place.

If there's one thing that this film should get alot of credit it's for the fact that the film does take as full advantage of it's New York setting as it possible could have done. As while yes granted Scream 3 also had a big city setting it didn't take full advantage of that with alot of the kills in that film happening inside whereas here we do get attacks that happen in New York based locations like the attack on the bodega for example that is something that could only work in this film as it would feel almost out of place in any of the other films and another great example being the scene where Mindy gets attacks on the subway near the end of the movie as that is a scene that once again could only happen in this film and it's scenes like those two scenes that do prove that the makers of this film really wanted to take full advantage of it's New York setting and because of that they helped to make New York feel like a character in this movie as now the city itself is being attacked by Ghostface an while Jason Voorhees only walked around New York for a little bit before getting killed of in Jason Takes Manhattan Ghostface actually goes to these extremes to make you terrified of being in New York and that is something that the makers of this film really didn't have to do as they could have had it be the typical Scream movie but it's now set in New York and that's it but it's the fact that they went out of there way to make New York feel like character in this film and to have attacks you could only see in this film that do help to make this film be alot more better and while yes it would have been nice if we did get to see more of New York as that would have helped the location feel alot less like Woodsboro it's not something that was really needed to sell you on the film as the very idea of having Ghostface running New York is more then enough to get you excited for this film in the first place. 

Where this film does start to fail is in it's mystery aspect as one of the things that people do go to these films for is to work out who is committing the kills in the film. Yet the film doesn't really do a good enough of not only making the killers be memorable characters outside of there roles as Ghostface but the film doesn't even give us any clues as to who the they are in the first place and yet if you contrast this with the first film we did get plenty of kills as to who was committing the kills in that film be it from Billy dropping his phone right after a Ghostface attack to all of the looks that both Billy and Stu share with each other other when Stu acts a little bit to crazy all of which might not seem like much at first but they are things that clue you into the fact that those characters aren't good guys where as here in this film we get none of that which does mean that when we do get to the reveal of Quinn , Ethan and Wayne all being the killers for the film with Wayne being more of a behind the scenes guy due to his age and Quinn and Ethan being the ones that actually kill people it is something that does come out nowhere as the film not only doesn't build up any of them apart from Ethan as suspects but they also don't give us any clues so that we the audience can work it out for our selves with the only thing that might be a clue being the fact that Quinn mentions that she had a brother that die in a car crash and that's it and that's not enough as we need more then that to go off of and yet it's something that the makers of this film fail to do which is something that does make this films mystery feel a lot more weaker then what it should have been.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly two hours and five minuets and ten seconds. Which to be fair to this film is pretty much the bogstanderd running time for these films and to be fair to this film it does have more then enough there interms of plot to cover that amount of running time in the first place and yet in saying this tho the film really doesn't take the time that it had to fully develop it's plot in the first place with it seeming like that the characters are just doing things for random reasons as so much of what the characters do in this film is in purpose of the films plot as rather it's just an excuse to get some of them in a certain location for a Ghostface attack when that is screen time that would be better served in developing the films plot with the same thig also being true for the films characters as well as the film doesn't take the time to develop alot of it's characters with the only character that gets some form of character development being Sam and that's really it as all of the other films characters getting none whatsoever even Gale who gets a phone call from Ghostface in this film gets no character development which fair enough you could argue the case that she gets her character development in the other films and therefor doesn't need it in this film however that is not something that applies to the other characters as even alot of the returning characters apart from Sam get nothing interms of character development when it would have made sense for the makers of the film to give characters like Quinn , Ethan and Wayne character development but I really will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is a slasher that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With this film having some really good kills as the makers of the film going as over the top as they could do with the films gore without the film becoming an outright parody of itself something which it very easily could have done with the films kills being made all the more effective due to the fact that there is some small effort to make Ghostface scary something which is helped by the fact that the film is set in a location where he can come out of the shadows and attack people from anywhere which is something that is made all the more effective by the fact that there's three people as Ghostface with the best kill in the film not even being a kill as it's the subway attack on Mindy as what makes that scene so well done being the fact that the makers of the film build up alot of tension with there being alot of people on both subways dressed up as Ghostface all of whom could very easily attack one of the main characters of the film with the editing doing a good job of selling you on the fact that it could be Sam's group that gets attacked only for the rug to be pulled and reveal that it's Mindy that gets attacked with the scene in Sam and Tara's apartment being a very close second place for that exact same reason with his film being filled to the brim with alot of good kills and while yes all of the kills in this film barring one are just people being stabbed part of what makes them work so well is the tension that's being built up and that is something that this film does really well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall no matter what you think of this film the one thing that cannot be denied is the fact it is a film that proves that the franchise can tell these unique stories with it's characters and still tell the typical Scream story so regardless of what you think of both this film , the next film or the previous film please keep it civil in the comments as we are all Scream fans after all an that is something that we should all be very proud of being in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 7.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film really are up and on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all really very fairly high quality and as well as being as really very fairly high definition as well and so then horror fans we end this review as we always do with really our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some really very unpleasant dreams.

Dracula In Space Film Review

For some reason film makers seem to think that sending a slasher on in this case a classic horror villain into space is a good idea and yet time and time again it never is. As now we have another horror villain that's left earth for space with this one being more of a retelling of the book then being a straight up sequel to any of the films but it is still weird that the makers of this film thought that it was a really good idea for this character to go into space and so then join me as I review the film that might very well be the most boring film of 2026 with the film in question being called simply "Dracula In Space" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when the crew of the space ship Demeter get a told that they have to haul the cargo from a seemingly abandoned ship the crew discover that they might have brought aboard something far more deadly then what they could have ever hoped for. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that good as the films plot isn't that creative at all with it coming across as knock off of the plot of Alien only without the charm and cleverness to pull it off this wouldn't be a bad thing however if the plot of the film at least advanced alot of the time and yet for one reason of another the makers of this film instead chose to make this film a slow burner film which means that the films dreadful plot goes for large portions of it's already small running time with nothing happening to advance the plot at all now to be fair having a slow burn plot is something that could work if the film in question really had a plot that demands it really be one yet here the plot of the film and the films title demand that the films plot be one that really moves at a quicker pace as given the title of the film you'd really expect the film to have a plot that's snappy and that's fun to watch and yet this film has a plot that's neither of those things with the plot of this film not really being really rather entertaining and nor is it really rather engaging either in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this film is Ash Grey Blonde star and The Bucket star Charlotte Reidie as Captain Harker and this films producer and Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood And Honey 2 star Louisa Warren as Captain Reyes.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that good. With the best word that could be used to describe this films acting being wooden as that's exactly what it is alot of the time it's wooden with all of the films actors turning in these wooden and bland performances with it being made clear as day that this films director Gregory William Randolph Jr. had no idea of how to direct his actors however o be fair to him he has only made two other films before this one with him mostly making short films but he does have to learn how to talk to his actors as that's how you get good performances out of them and if your not going to do that then you better cast some amazing actors in your project something which given the fact that this film was a small budgeted British independent film he was never ever going to do and as a result the films acting does suffer quite alot with the best actor in the whole entire film being Marcus Massey as Dracula as he really comes across as the only one that's actually trying to turn in a good performance and while his performance in the film isn't amazing it's alot better then the performances from the rest of this films actors as they all really feel like that there phoning in their performances with the acting that's in this film not really being helped by the fact that this films script is just so bad as it gives none of this films actors absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there actual characters personalities are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does harm the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.

To say that this films characters are bland and forgettable characters would be a huge understatement as that's exactly what they are. As there's nothing to these characters that makes them interesting characters with all having the same bland character type and look fair enough these films are made cheaply and quickly but you still have to take the time to give us some good characters that we want to see make it to the end of the film and yet in this film what we get is characters that we feel nothing for as the film doesn't give us a reason to care for any of them with alot of them quite literally being characters that are knocked off from other forms of Dracula media with a few of them baring the same name of others that are heavily associated with Dracula which is fair enough but when you give us characters that just remind us of other better characters then you owe it to your characters to make them good and to make them memorable and yet here in this film despite the fact that there's already an android character in the film all of the characters act like there robots with Captain Harker being the stereotypical stoic leader of the group who wouldn't know what a smile is if it came up and hit her in the face Reyes being a useless character who is only there for eye candy and that's really it with the rest of the films characters including Dracula being just as boring and as bland as the rest of the films characters as they do feel like the kind of characters that you'll find in the first draft of a script and while this film might have only had one draft the makers of this film should have spent the extra money and spent the extra time on a re-write as that would then allow them to fix the films characters and to make them better then what they are in this film.

Look to be fair to this film the very idea of doing a Dracula movie in space is one that's a very good idea. Yet it's also one that could go very badly wrong if it's not handled right and that's exactly what happens here in this film as the makers of this film were more bothered by giving us references to Dracula then the were in giving us a fun film say what you will about Jason X but then one thing that you can't say about that film is that it's boring as there's always something happening be it a cool kill or the plot is being moved forward in a somewhat creative way yet here in this film tho none of that happens with the film really taking it's time in letting things happen whilst this is of course done to build up tension which is fair enough as that it something that you do need in a Dracula story but here the film isn't long enough and therefor the film really does need to get to the good stuff alot quicker as or else the audience is going to fall asleep watching the film as there's quite large portions of the film where nothing is happening due to the fact that were getting countless scenes of the characters just sitting and talking which is fair enough as they have to get across plot information but here it comes at the expense of having a fun and entertaining film where as with Jason X that film knew right away that it was going to be a dumb fun filled slasher film and wasn't afraid to be anything more then that and yet given the fact that this film is titled "Dracula In Space" which is something that does make you think that your going to be getting a dumb film the film oddly enough tries to be something that it's not as this isn't a film that demands that you take it seriously this is instead a film that you should laugh at how bad it is and how dumb it is.

Look fair point this film was made very cheaply but for some odd reason this film looks like that it was filmed in the house of one of the producers. Yet the film is meant to take place on a space ship in outer space yet we don't actually get to see outer space in this film barring for a few very badly done FX shots which the film does take great pride in showing us with this being something that does make the film feel alot more smaller as this ship is meant to be huge and yet we don't get to see much of it rather we just get to see a few rooms and few corridors and that's really it which is something that makes you wonder why the makers of this film chose to make this film as they quite clearly didn't have the finds to make it as good as they could have done as they could have had some steam coming out of some pipes and some pipes up on the wall to make it look like that we're in the engine room or for when we are the main eating quarters they could have had some lights on and have some tables in the background just anything to give that set more life and make the the world of this film feel more real and yet because of the fact that the film has some VFX shots which they take great pride in showing us it means that the rest of the film gets to look fan made at best and the effects get to loon decent by comparison with the film having some admittedly cool looking effects for when Dracula is defeated at the end of the film but that doesn't make up for the fact that the rest of the film just looks bland and while yes the makers of this film were working well within there means which is fair enough when you do a film that's set in space the audience expects to see something new crew and creative and yet all we got for this sip was something that's bland and forgettable.

To give this film some form of credit it does do something interesting by having Dracula basically invade the dreams of the characters. With this being done as a way to convince them to join him or to let him bite them which is a cool idea and again to the films credit the film does go as far as they could have done with it given the fact that they didn't have a bug budget to work with in the first place with the only thing that lets that idea down being the fact that nothing very rarely if ever comes of it as while yes we do get some kills out of it they happen very rarely with us not really getting to see how these visions effect the crew mentally which is something that would have been very interesting to see and it would have given us a new and interesting angle as well and yet the makers of this film don't do that which makes would could have been a really cool addition to the film as now we would have the fact that the crew is being made more and more mentally unstable as the film goes on which is something that would have been interesting to see as we don't get to see that happen in a lot of Dracula media and yet because of the act that this film is being ore focused on knocking off Alien then it is in being a good Dracula story that has some really cool things in it it does mean that the only genuinely good idea that the film has feels underused alot of the time as it would have been cool to see Dracula use that skill to get the upper hand on the crew just by planting moments of doubt which yes would have been a small thing but it still would have something that would have helped to make this really bland and boring film stand out from all of the other Dracula films out there.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and twenty one minuets and twenty three seconds. Which for any other horror film would have been a decent running time for the film to have and yet this film is slow burner which is something that doesn't really work with the fact that the film has a really short running time and yet the film spends so much time in just having the characters explore the ship in the first place and not enough time in it's plot with the film not even having enough plot to cover that amount of running time as by all rights the film only has enough plot to cover about forty five minuets and that's really it and yet the makers of the film have lots of scenes that are just filler scenes as a way to get the film up to feature length with alot of those scenes being just way to expand something that usually would have taken a few seconds to do with the film not even using it's running time all that wisely as the film doesn't take the time to fully it's plot which fair enough it might not have to do as this film is telling a really simple story and doesn't need to be that well developed as a result of it as the film spends far to much time in setting up the plot then it does in giving us scenes that actually develop it when it would have made more sense for this film to spend alot more time in giving the film some kind of plot development instead of just having things happening for the sake of it with the film not even taking the time to give the characters any kind of character development as we get to find nothing about any of this films characters heck we don't even get to find the first names of any of the films characters as that's how underdeveloped that they all are as we get to find out nothing about what it is that makes these characters tick in the first place but I really will admit that this film really does have some really bad pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is a horror film that really does mean that I gave to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual kills that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really bad. With alot of the films kills being lame at best and at worst being off screen with the film not really putting alot of thought and effort into it's kills with it feeling like that the makers of his film didn't put that much thought and effort into the films kills as they all feel just lame and while yes granted there's only so much that you can do with Dracula as the main villain as there are only so many that you can see him biting someone before it starts to get dull and boring and to be fair this film doesn't really show him biting someone all that often as alot of the time he just basically takes over them which is something that they don't explain with the film not really having a kill that you could say is the best kill in the film as all of the films kills are just bland and forgettable as they have nothing about them that makes standout as they all just feel bland and generic like they could have been kills that were in other films as there's nothing that makes them feel unique to this film with the film not even taking advantage of the fact that there in space or the fact that they have Dracula be the main villain of the film and yet if the film did any of that then we would have gotten some really good kills in it and yet for one reason or another the makers of the film didn't bother to give us some good kills in it with all of the films kills being lame with the same thing even being true for Dracula's death which is the only semi-decent death in the whole entire film in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 

Overall no matter how bad Minnie's Massacre ends up being it won't be as bad as this film is as this film isn't even a film that's so bad that it's good as it's just painfully bad film that is more then boring to watch as it's also a chore to watch and a chore to get through as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now the i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review which really does mean that this very film really does earn itself a grand old core of exactly a 0 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film really are up and on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all really very fairly high quality and as well as being as really very fairly high definition as well and so then horror fans we end this review as we always do with really our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some really very unpleasant dreams.

Late Night With The Devil Film Review

Whilst mainstream horror films are these days mostly all sequels and remakes there are still original horror films being made. With the film that i'm going to be talking to you all today being one such a film as while it's a found footage film it's setting is one that's fully original with it's central idea being a wholly original idea as well and so then join me as I review the film that has well over a minuet and thirty second of opening company credit logos with the film in question being called simply just "Late Night With The Devil" enjoy.

The plot of this film is during the broadcast of his talk show host Jack Delroy finds himself and his guests being tormented by something otherworldly. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good with this films plot being one is refreshing and is new as its one that hasn't been done both before and since this film and yet this films plot does also feel very by the numbers as you know where it's going to go before it goes there with the thing that makes it stand out being the fact that you don't know how it's going to get there in the first place and while yes this films plot could have been alot more better then what it was the fact that it was told through this seemingly lost episode of a fictional TV show is something that does make it feel unique and make it feel all the more real as for all we could know there could episodes like this out there and yet down being let this films plot down is the fact that it does feel really thin with the film only hinting at it's plot during the very brief backstage segments that are in the film and yet even then nothing that happens in those segments effects what's happening on stage during the main portion of the film and while that may be more true to how TVs are run it's also something that does make this films plot feel more like an afterthought as the film barely focuses on those segments with the plot of this film also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this film is David Dastmalchian as Jack Delroy , Laura Gordon as Dr. June Ross-Mitchell and Ian Bliss as Carmichael Haig. Also starring in this film is Fayssal Bazzi as Christou , Ingrid Torelli as Lilly D'Abo , Rhys Auteri as Gus McConnell , Georgina Haig as Madeleine Piper , Josh Quong Tart as Leo Fiske , Steve Mouzakis as Szandor D'Abo , Paula Arundell as Diane , Christopher Kirby as Phil , John O'May as Walker Bedford and Michael Ironside as The Narrator.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With all of this films actors turning in some really good performances in this film something which surely couldn't have been an easy task to do and yet they all pull it of really well and with alot of this films actor being at best little known actors it's a wonder that we got some really got some really good acting in this film and yet its made clear as day that this films writer and directors Colin Cairnes and Cameron Cairnes really did know how to get a good performance out of all of there actors in this film with the best actor in the film being David Dastmalchian as he really does fully embody this character him fully capturing just what alot of late night talk shows hists were most likely like back in the seventies whilst also making the character fully his own and if the man wanted to continue making movies not just horror movies but movies in general then he really could make it as an actor as he is just so good in this film with him being full of energy when he needs to be and yet during the films backstage segments we get to see that the Jack that we see on stage is vastly different from the one behind the stage and all of that is something that does come through in his performance with the acting that's in this film really being helped by the fact that the script for this film is just so good that all this film actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.

Where it could be argued that this film well and truly shines is in it's character as the film does give us some really well thought out characters. As the film does make sure to make all of it's characters do have somethin about them that does make somewhat close to being likeable characters like Jack for example yes he is a fame hungry character but he's also someone that did very deeply care for his wife as well with that care and love being something that does drive him to these extremes in this film and to the films credit it is something that they didn't need to do and yet it's something that they did and because of the Jack as a character does come across as being a more likable character because of it with the same thig also being true for all of the films over characters as well with them all having something about them that does make what could be seen as being these really unlikable characters now seem all the more likable like for example Carmichael Haig who is a bit of skeptic and is someone who is just trying to do the best with little that he has in the first place with it being made clear as day that the makers of this film really did put alot of thought into this s films characters as all of this films characters are some really well thought out characters with them all having something to do with the main plot of the film and them all impacting the plot of the film in some way shape or form be it due to them dying or due to them impacting the character of Jack in someway with this being something that you don't really see all that often and yet here it is in this film little known that not alot of people even know about in the first place.

Whilst there is no doubt that the Paranormal Activity films helped to make the found footage genre as popular as it is today they also helped to run it into the ground by being the same film even single time. Yet here in this film we get something that does kind of change the game a little bit as whilst yes it is still a found footage movie it's done in a unique way as its not someone holding up a camera all the time when they wouldn't normally be holding a camera rather it's tape from an episode of a TV show that only aired once and that's it and that unique setup alone is more then enough to make what is a tired genre of horror seem fresh and new as now we get to see things that we normally wouldn't get to see like all of the behind the scenes stuff which might seem like small things at first but it's the small things that make all of the big things work as this is a concept where we have to buy into the set up in order for the film to work and if we don't buy into it then the film itself just flat out doesn't work and yet because of the fact that the makers of this film made sure to fill the screen with alot of detail alot of which could be seen as hints of what's to come later on in the film they all combine to make this films set up work all the more and it's this kind of dedication that does prove that found footage films when there done right can work but sadly alot of them like the Paranormal Activity sequels aren't done right and it's those kinds of films that we remember alot more then the good ones when it should be the other way around as these good movies when they work can be works of art and yet alot of the time they end up being terrible films that we forget right away because of the fact that the makers of those film had nothing new to say with them.

Where the film does somewhat fail is the fact that it's not really all that interesting of a film with this being due to the fact that the film does feel a bit boring at times. With the film feeling like that its stuck on repeat mode alot of the time as alot of the time whenever Jack introduces a new guest something creepy happens and the guest ends up being traumatized by it which is fine for one or two guests but the whole film is like that and it is something that dies make you feel like if the makers of this film just couldn't be bothered to come up with something fresh and new to help to carry the film and to help make the film seem alot less dull and boring as it would be very easy to write this film as being a dull film due to the fact that the film does give you alot of information about Jack right at the start and it expects you to remember it all when it is something that would have been alot more better served if it did that in pieces as then we the audience would still have this mystery about what is really going with Jack and it would also have allowed the film to break away from it's formular but given that this film is trying to do something new with the found footage formular you can kind of forgive it for not doing all that much with the formular that it's forced itself to have as the film after all is meant to be about a forgotten episode of a chat show and those kinds of shows do have this strict formular that they all seem to stick to and if this film is going to lampoon them and put it's spin on the setting then it does need to stick to that format as well even if it is something that does end up hurting the film alot more then it does help it. 

As a film it easy to see why this one has pretty much been forgotten about as while it is a really good film it's also one that's not been released by a major studio. Which does mean that it more then flew under the radar it just straight up avoided it all together which is a shame as this is film that does prove that you can find these weird original films in Hollywood you just have to look for them alot more harder yet at the same time due to the fact that this film is a found footage film it is perfectly possible that alot of people might have grown tired with them and weren't ready to give this film the chance that it deserved as while yes it did still make alot of money at the ox office it is something that hasn't left that much of an impact on people and yet when you compare this film to Paranormal Activity which like this film did make alot of money at the box office but that film did something that this film as good as it is just didn't do and that's the fact that that film caught people's attention and yet due to when this film was being released it just wasn't able to do that as these days people are more quick to move on to the next big thing and because of that some really good horror films like Good Boy and like In A Violent Nature do end up being forgotten about this is despite the fact that all of those films are still really good films in there own right and could be seen as being game changers for the world of horror if only people where more then willing to take a chance and be inspired by them like how they were with the Paranormal Activity films and yet because there not this film is destined to be one of those films that will only be remembered by die hard horror fans and not by the mainstream stream audience that might have liked it in the first place.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and forty one minuets ad forty one seconds. Which to be fair to this film is a perfectly solid running time for this film to have as it is a film that really does need to be that long due to the fact that it does have so much plot to set up in the first place with the film just about having the right amount of plot there to really cover that amount of running time in the first place and yet in saying this tho the film really doesn't use it's running time all that wisely due to the fact that the film really does take the time to fully develop it's plot with the film being more focused on being a spoof of seventies talk shows then it in giving us a more well thought out plot when it could have done both just by giving more scenes that help to flesh out the films plot and that help to make the plot of the film be all the more stronger then what it is in the first place with this even being true for the films characters as well as the film doesn't really take the time to fully flesh out all of it's characters and to give them much in the way of character development when the film has plenty of opportunity to do exactly that and could have done exactly that firstly by cutting one down on the really long opening company logos and secondly by having the film showcase more of what it's characters are about instead of just giving us snippets here and there which yes is true to the talk show format but what works for a talk show wont and in this case doesn't work for a feature length film as we know as much about all of this films characters coming out of the film then we did coming into the film but I really will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is a slasher film that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual scares that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual scares that are actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. With all of the films scares being really creative and as they should be down right scary with it being made clear as day that the makers of this film really did put alot more thought and effort into this film scares then they did anything else as that's where we get to see just how creative that this film really is with the film even having some really impressive looking practical effects in it as well with the best scare in the whole entire film being when Carmichael hypnotizes Gus into thinking that worms are inside his body with worms being something that Gus hates the most with the thing that takes that scare over the top being the fact that we see Gus then rip open his chest to reveal a giant worm inside of him which then proceeds to pop out his eye with Carmichael then revealing that it was something that he only did just to prove the June was wrong about what happened with Lily with the film having alot of these over the top and creative scares that does prove that found footage films can still be scary if you have the right team willing to give you genuinely good scares and that is something that this film does have as alot of this films scares are really good scares with them being the kind of scares that do stay with you long after the film is finished as that's how good that they are in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall whilst yes this is a good film and it is one that does deserve to be talked about alot more then what it is it's also a film that you do have to be in certain mood for watching due to the fact that yes this film could be seen as bit boring at times but once you get to the good that's when this film really truly something to behold in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad thing that are in this very film in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly an 8 out of 10 from me.

Now then as or where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has images from this film really are up and on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all really very fairly high quality and as well as being as really very fairly high definition as well and so then horror fans we end this review as we always do with really our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some really very unpleasant dreams.
