Cocaine Bear Film Review

 



Every so often there comes along a film that makes you wonder what genre of film it actually is meant to be. Well one of those films has just been released and heck even the internet doesn't know what genre of film this is meant to be since i've seen it listed as a thriller to an action comedy to a horror comedy and so then join me as I review the film that lets you know what type of film it is just by the title alone with the film in question being called simply just "Cocaine Bear" enjoy.

The plot of this film when tons of drugs are lost somewhere in the woods a drug runner has to find them only to find that whoever has taken the drugs isn't human at all. 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 n this very film was in all honesty just as crazy and insane as you'd expect it to be given the films title that is inn my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this film is Keri Russell as Sari , O'Shea Jackson Jr. as Daveed and Alden Ehrenreich as Eddie. Also starring in this film is Christian Convery as Henry , Brooklynn Prince as Dee Dee , Isiah Whitlock Jr. as Bob , Margo Martindale as Ranger Liz , Ray Liotta as Syd , Jesse Tyler Ferguson as Peter , Aaron Holliday as Stache , Kristofer Hivju as Olaf Kristoffer , Hannah Hoekstra as Elsa , Ayoola Smart as Officer Reba , Kahyun Kim as Beth , Scott Seiss as Tom and Matthew Rhys as Andrew C. Thornton II.

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 alot pf this films cast turning in some good performances for the most part since you do get a few actors in this film who just don't turn in good or even passable performances and that really does bring down the overall quality of the acting in this film.



Doing the CGI for this film is Clear Angle Studios , Exceptional Minds , Halon Entertainment , Rising Sun Pictures and Weta FX. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual CGI 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 CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good with the films CGI bear being the best effect in the whole entire film but with that being said the film does use some really obvious CGI doubles which do stand out by quite a mile.



This film is very loosely based on the true story of a bear that snorted a ton of drugs back in the early to mid nineteen eighties. I say loosely since this film does indeed take some very creative liberties with the story like for example the fact that the bear never went on a killing spree and as as far as I can tell the only people who were looking for the drugs were the local police department but what is true is the fact that Andrew C. Thornton II did infact die in the manor that is shown in this film but as far as I can tell it is the only thing that's true that's represented in this film.

Where as most films like this one take themselves far to seriously this film as the opposite problem in that it doesn't take itself seriously enough. Combining a comedy with any other genre is always a hard task because if you lean far to much either way you risk the film becoming unbalanced and that is the case with this film since it takes it's comedy more seriously then it does being a horror film which means that when a kill does happen it's not as effect as it perhaps could have been as the characters are nine times out of ten still in the middle of telling a joke. 


As a comedy this film does work really well since there alot of really good jokes in this film but that's what you get when you have the pair of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller producing your film. Since they have a very good sense of humor and when you add in the fact that the films director and other producer Elizabeth Banks can be funny of course your going to get a film that has alot of really good jokes in it which makes it all the more painful when this film tells a really bad joke which sadly it does quite often.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and thirty minuets and twenty eight seconds. Which id the absolutely perfect running time for a film lime this one to have since this film doesn't have alot their interms of either plot or story to cover anything that's even anywhere close to being two hours long but at the same time with this film being as short as it is it does mean that all of it's characters can;t be fully developed because the film really has to reach the next plot point.



So now then since this is a horror film that means that I have ti 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 film are in all honesty pretty good. Altho they do get very repetitive with the type of kills that they have since all they boil down is the bear either scratching or eating people which is good for one or two kills but when the vast majority of the kills are done in that way it does get a little bit boring to watch in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall I can't say that this film is better the Winnie The Pooh: Blood And Honey since that film was at least entertaining in it's concept and idea but I will admit that out of those two films this one is the better made film tho n 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 means that this very film earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 6.5 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 IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because of the fact Google Images actually has alot of images from this film up on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all fairly high quality and as well as being as fairly high definition and so then horror fans we ends this review as we always freaking do with our one and true freaking goddess Elvira wishing us all some very freaking unpleasant dreams indeed.

See No Evil 2006 Film Review

 



Wrestling and horror are in theory two worlds that should go together perfectly and yet neither has taken advantage of the the others existence at least not all of the time. Well there was a time when the worlds most famous wrestling company dared to produce a horror film and it's that very horror film that i'm about to take a look at today and so then join me as I review the film that proved that horror an wrestling goes together really perfectly with the film in question being called simply just "See No Evil" enjoy.

The plot of this film when a group of teenage delinquents are forced to do some community service at broken down hotel they discover that the hotel also has a serial killer and the group have to fight for their very lives. 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 bad with this films plot giving us exactly what we'd expect from the plot of a slasher but that's also the problem as it gives us nothing new from we'd expect from the plot of a slasher film either in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


Starring in this film is wrestling legend and politician Glenn Jacobs as Jacob Goodnight , Christina Vidal as Christine Zarate and Samantha Noble as Kira Vanning. Also starring in this film is Luke Pegler as Michael Montross , Michael J. Pagan as Tyson Simms , Rachael Taylor as Zoe Warner , Penny McNamee as Melissa Beudroux , Craig Horner as Richie Bernson , Mikhael Wilder as Russell Wolf , Steven Vidler as Officer Frank Williams , Cecily Polson as Margaret Gayne and Tiffany Lamb as Hannah Anders.

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 bad. With all of this films cast members doing their best to make this films script doing their absolutely best to make this films script however the script give this films cast nothing to work with interms of what their characters personalities actually are.



This films does have a rather unique setting that being a hotel which is a setting that I don't think has been seen in alot of other horror films. This is a setting that is a really cool setting just due to the fact that the  killer could quite literally appear from anywhere and that is something that really does make the film alot more scarier and it's a wonder that more horror films especially slasher horror films don' have a hotel setting since there is quite alot that you could do with that setting all of which would make for a really goo movie. 


I'm not making this up when I say that all of this films main characters including all of the ones that we are meant to like are just really unlikable. I get it that might be the point since all of them are basically prisoners but you still have to have characters that your audience actually likes even more so in a horror film since it will make it all the more impact full when they do infact die in this film and all this film did was make me root for the killer and not for the characters that your actually meant to rooting for because that's just how unlikable this films characters actually are.

To make matters even worse is the fact that this film does a switch on who the main hero is by killing of the slightly likable police officer character and replacing him with a bunch of characters that you really don't like. This kind of plot twist only work if the person that your replacing our main character with is actually likable and that just simply isn't the case with this film and as such the plot twist just doesn't work out as well as it could have done because of the fact that the filmmakers chose to make none of it's characters actually likable.


The idea of casting Kane as this films main villain is a genuinely good idea since Glenn Jacobs himself is huge tower of a man. Heck even without any makeup he is a pretty scary looking person and so casting him as this films villain does make sense what doesn't make sense is making this character seem alot more likable then the characters that your actually meant to like since your not meant to like the villain and so making this character who is evil beyond all believe just doesn't work and it's something that doesn't make alot of sense at all.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and twenty three minuets and fifty nine seconds. Which is the bog standard running time for a low budget schlocky slasher horror film like this one to have and to this films credit it really does have the perfect amount of story to cover that amount of running time however I can't help but wonder if this film did have a much longer running time would all of the characters which are very thinly drawn out become alot more fleshed out or if they would remain just as thinly drawn out as they are in the finished cut of this film but again to this films credit when the kills start coming they come at you thick and fast and that really does help with this films pacing.


So now then since this is a slasher that means that I do 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 not that bad. With this films kills being the most entertaining part of the film since you can quite clearly tell that's where the filmmakers out alot of their effort in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this is just an OK film that WWE Films produced and even tho it was quite clearly made to promote Kane and nothing else this film is a very entertaining film to watch 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 means that this very film earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 6 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 IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because of the fact Google Images actually has alot of images from this film up on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all fairly high quality and as well as being as fairly high definition and so then horror fans we ends this review as we always freaking do with our one and true freaking goddess Elvira wishing us all some very freaking unpleasant dreams indeed.

Knock At The Cabin Film Review

 



I think that it's safe to say that writer and director M. Night Shyamalan is a very mixed director when it comes to his horror films with some of the being really good and others being some peoples worst films ever. Well he's just released a new film and well with his recent films being both critical and box office hits I had to check this film out just to see if he really is bouncing back as a writer , director and producer and so then join me as I review the film that teams up Ronald Weasley with Drax The Destroyer with the film in question being called simply just "Knock At The Cabin" enjoy.

The plot of this film is two fathers and their daughter have to decide which one of them will die all before the world comes it's end. 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 very creative and engaging as well as being fairly entertaining as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this film is Guardians Of The Galaxy star Dave Bautista as Leonard and Frozen and Frozen 2 star Jonathan Groff as Eric. Also starring in this film is Pennyworth aka Pennyworth: The Origin Of Batman's Butler star Ben Aldridge as Andrew , The Omen remake star Nikki Amuka-Bird as Sabrina , Kristen Cui as Wen , Mad About You star Abby Quinn as Adriane and Harry Potter star Rupert Grint as Redmond.

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 cast members turning in some shockingly good performances even Rupert Grint turns in a really good performance as well which was something that really did shock me just because of the fact that i've not seen him in alot of things.



This film is based of off the 2018 book by Paul Tremblay with the book itself being called simply just The Cabin At The End Of The World. As far as I can tell the film does follow the book rather well but there is one key difference that I can't say as it's a spoiler but let's just say that I wished that the film went with this scene as it would have made the film alot more darker then what it actually is and it would have given the film the edge that it very much needs but the change is somewhat understandable as it would have been a bit extreme for mainstream audiences.



What makes this films villains truly standout is the fact that it's villains are for the most part genuinely nice people. This also makes them rather scary as there doing this evil because of the fact that they genuinely believe it to be the right thing to do and also because of the fact that they are nice people as well and while these villains won't go down as the most well known villains in all of horror but they will go down as one of the most interesting villains that there is since they also feel genuine remorse for what it is that they have to do as well.

Unlike with alot of films written , directed and produced M. Night Shyamalan there really isn't a twist in this film. There is something close to a twist in this film which again due to it being a spoiler I can't really spoil it but it's not that good of a twist since it's something that's mentioned quite often which is a shame because it's a key plot point and as such alot of thought should have gone into holding of on this reveal just to make it all the ore shocking and that would have made feel alot more like a true M. Night Shyamalan plot twist.


One of this films key themes is that of family since we find out that our main family was chosen because their love for each other was pure. As such we get to see how this family works together as a family unit and while that isn't something that we get to see in the main bulk of the film when we do get to see it play it makes the characters feel alot more likable which was something that I really liked altho I would have liked if we got to see that this family wasn't as perfect as they make out to be which is something that is only hinted at in this film.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and thirty four minuets and sixteen seconds. Which is the absolutely perfect time for this film to last since it doesn't have alot of story to cover anything that's anywhere even close to being two hours long and as such this film does have some really good pacing with both the story and scenes moving at a great pace and with no scene lasting no longer then what it really needs to altho I would have liked it if this film was a little bit longer just so that they could fully develop all of it;s characters alot more then what it actually does in this film.


So now then since this is a horror film that means 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 were in all honesty not that bad. Altho this film does commit the biggest sin that any horror film can commit and that's the fact that alot of this films kills happen off screen an that is something that shouldn't be the case since this is an R rated film and as such all of the kills should have be shown on screen in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall while I can't say if this film is better then let's say The Departed for example I can say that is a very good film and it's one that shows that M. Night Shyamalan knows how to get good performances from his cast when he really wants to 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 means that this very film really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 6.5 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 I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because of the fact Google Images actually has alot of images from this film up on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all fairly high quality and as well as being as fairly high definition and so then horror fans we ends this review as we always freaking do with our one and true freaking goddess Elvira wishing us all some very freaking unpleasant dreams indeed.

Infinity Pool Film Review

 



Horror fans every so often there comes an actress that manages to get the horror fandom so upset when they don;t get nominated for a major award. Well said actress also has a brand new horror film out and just like the film that she should really have been nominated for in the best actress category she nails it in this film as well and so then join me as I review the film that makes the Saw films look really like a Disney film by comparison with the film in question being called simply just "Infinity Pool" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when a struggling writer and his wife get meet a couple on vacation they are drawn into a deadly game for the writers very soul. 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 on this very film was in all honesty really good altho the plot does seem like it's treading upon very familiar ground tho in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


Starring in this film is The Northman and Godzilla Vs Kong star Alexander SkarsgÃ¥rd as James Foster and X and Pearl star Mia Goth as Gabi Bauer. Also starring in this film is Cleopatra Coleman as Em Foster , Jalil Lespert as Alban Bauer , Captain America: The Winter Soldier star Thomas Kretschmann as Detective Thresh , Amanda Brugel as Jennifer , Caroline Boulton as Bex , John Ralston as Dr. Bob Modan and Jeffrey Ricketts as Charles.

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 cast turning in some really good performances altho I will admit that this film is perhaps Mia Goth's weakest performance just because of the fact that this films script gives not only her but also the rest of the cast nothing to work with interms of what their respective characters personalities is.


This film does a really good job of showing someones decent into madness and showing how it only effects them mentally but also physically as well. Which I thought was very interesting as it made the film feel alot more tense and alot more exciting as it's thing that we really haven't seen before since alot of films that deal with somebody going insane have it happen and we don't see the toll that it takes on them but here not only do we see the toll that it takes on people but it's also a key plot point in the film as well.



To me this film gave of very strong Midsommar since not only is it a very slow burn like Midsommar it's plot is also very eerily similar to that of Midsommar as well. Which is a shame because this films whole setup is very original but when you get right down to it this film comes across as a rip off of off Midsommar even down to showing a character going very slowly insane which is a shame because films are truly great films and the only thing that really sets the two films apart is the setting of both films since at their core both films are exactly the same film.

Like I just said this film is a very slow burn with this film taking it's time in telling it's story which is something that works both for and against this film. It works for this film because it allows the film to create tension and to fully develop it's characters however it works against the film because it means that for large portions of the films running time there's nothing actually happening and that does make the film boring which is a shame because when this films plot really does start to get going it is a very entertaining film but this film seems to think that you have to pick one over the other where as that simply isn't true since films like Scream 1996 and X for example both proved that you can create alot of tension and have great characters but still be a really entertaining film.


I said at the start of this review that this film makes the Saw films look like a Disney film and that's not only because of the amount of gore on display but also because of the character of Gabi Bauer. With that character being very insane so much so that she could in all honesty put John Kramer to shame since while he is indeed evil you can at least understand why he's doing what he's doing where as Gabi is just insane for the sake of being insane and is doing these evil things not to right some wrong but just because she can and that's it.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and forty nine minuets and seven seconds. With this films running time not really helping this film out since it is a really slow burn of a film and it doesn't have not only the story but also the amount of time needed to do that justice and as such when the films plot does indeed get going it feels like it's just rushing plot points instead of reaching them at a more natural pace which would have been helped if the story was expanded upon in the script and if the film had a slightly longer running time.


So now then since this is a horror film that means that I have to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / resented 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 are in all honesty not that bad. Since this film really doesn't have that many kills but when it does have a kill not only is very brutal and hard hitting but it also means something for the main character as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall while this is a very good film its also a film that is very boring and to be honest feels like that it's trying to hard to be scary which is a shame because when it;s not trying to hard to be scary it is genuinely scary 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 means that this very film earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 7 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 IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because of the fact Google Images actually has alot of images from this film up on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all fairly high quality and as well as being as fairly high definition and so then horror fans we ends this review as we always freaking do with our one and true freaking goddess Elvira wishing us all some very freaking unpleasant dreams indeed.

Scream 2022 Film Review

 



Scream fans last year the Scream franchise made a big comeback with a film that nobody knew that they both wanted or needed. While it would have been super easy for me to make this film review a tie in review for the upcoming Scream 6 I thought that since it's been well over a year since the release of Scream 5 that now would be the right time to give it a proper review now that we've all had alot of time to let the film sit with us for awhile and so then join me as I review the film that really did very successfully resurrect a dead franchise with the film in question being called simply just "Scream" enjoy.

The plot of this film is twenty five years after the first Scream movie a new set of killings start happening in the town of Woodsboro and it's up to a new group of friends to find out who this killer is before it's far 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 very film was in all honesty really good with this films plot being refreshingly good and being a breath of fresh air for this franchise in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this film is Neve Campbell as Sidney Prescott , David Arquette as Dewey Riley and Courteney Cox as Gale Weathers. Also starring in this film is Melissa Barrera as Samantha Carpenter , Wednesday star Jenna Ortega as Tara Carpenter , Jack Quaid as Richie Kirsch , Dylan Minnette as Wes Hicks , Mason Gooding as Chad Meeks-Martin , Kyle Gallner as Vince Schneider , Jasmin Savoy Brown as Mindy Meeks-Martin , Sonia Ben Ammar as Liv McKenzie , Mikey Madison as Amber Freeman , Heather Matarazzo as Martha Meeks , Skeet Ulrich as Billy Loomis 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 very film was in all honesty really good. With this films acting rather rightfully getting alot of praise from both critics and fans alike and it;s really earned since all of this films cast members turn in some really good performances in this very film.


This film is all about subverting expectations since from the opening scene we see scenes and tropes that have been in the previous Scream movies and here they play out differently. Heck even the fact that this film kills of one of the main legacy characters is subverting peoples expectations since we always go into one of these Scream films knowing that Sidney , Gale and Dewey are going to make it out of the film alive and OK and so when Dewey gets killed of in this film it not only subverts your expectations because now it makes you think that if Dewey could die the maybe the other legacy characters can now die as well.


How this film handles it's legacy characters to me proves that this film was made by fans of the Scream franchise. Since all of the legacy characters in this film act like you'd expect there character to act and the same thing even goes for Billy who despite being killed of in the first movie is still just as bone chilling as ever and even tho I don;t really like that in this film he's kind of portrayed as being an anti hero it is still great to see this character back and the CGI on the character does look rather really good as well.

Speaking of Billy Loomis I really don't like that they brought this character back since to me this franchise has been very realistic. As such having Billy Loomis appear in a very supernatural kind of way takes away from that realism which is a shame because he really does get some good scenes but I feel that the film would have been overall better of if that character wasn't included in the finished film just so that little bit of realism could still be maintained and plus you'd then get the mystery of who Sam's real father even was in the first place so it would have been a win win situation.


To me this film relies a little bit two much on nostalgia for the first film which does work both for and against the film. Since it means that we get alot of great scenes between the characters but it also works against in that it means that you have to have to watched the first film in order to order to understand what;s gong on in this film and as such that means that alot of this films feels alot more like homework which is a shame because when thew film does make a reference or a joke about the previous films it usually adds something to the plot of this film.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and fifty four minuets and eighteen seconds. Which I will admit is a tad bit on the long side for this film to last even more when you take into account that this film doesn't put that much focus on the actual mystery aspect of the film which is weird because with this added time that is something that the film could have done and still have told a really well done and a really well thought story but for some reason they just don't and as such the film oddly feels a little bit longer then what it actually is.


So now then since this is a slasher that means 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 films kills not only being rather intense and actually scary but this films films are also really cool and are really very gory to look at as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall out of all of the Scream sequels this one is quite easily better then Scream 3 and is one par with Scream 2 for me that's not a knock against this film it;s just that I love that film so much and so being on par with Scream 2 is for me a good thing 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 sch that means that this very film earns itself a grand old score of exactly an 8 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 the official Scream fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being the official Scream fandom wiki page simply because the official Scream fandom wiki page  actually has images from this film up on the official Scream fandom wiki page and pus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on the official Scream fandom wiki page were all fairly high quality and as well as being as fairly high definition and so then horror fans we ends this review as we always do with our one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some very unpleasant dreams.

Sick 2022 Film Review

 



For some strange reason Peacock is becoming the home of bad horror movies with They / Them and now the film that i'm about to review for you all today. I have to admit that when I first saw the trailer for this film about a week or so ago I was excited to see this movie because it looked fresh different and funny but now that i've seen the movie I have to say that the opposite is true and so then join me as I review the film that is basically a rip off of the first two Scream movies with the film in question being called simply just "Sick" enjoy.

The plot of this film is during the early stages of quarantine two best friends go to a lake house so that they can quarantine together only to get caught up in a deadly game of cat and mouse. 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 pretty weak at best with this films plot being so thinly drawn out that at times it's hard to tell what the actual plot of this film actually is in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this film is The Craft: Legacy star and Pacific Rim: The Black star Gideon Adlon as Parker Mason and Bethlehem Million as Miri Woodlow. Also starring in this film is Teen Wolf star and Man Of Steel star Dylan Sprayberry as DJ Cole , Super 8 star and The Kissing Booth franchise star Joel Courtney as Tyler Murphy , Alone star Marc Menchaca as Jason and Twin Peaks star Jane Adams as Pamela.

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 bad. With all of this films cast doing their absolutely best to make this films script work well enough for them but the issue is that this films script gives them nothing to work with interms of what their characters personalities are and so the performances can only be OK and nothing more then that since the script won't allow for that.



There are alot of shots in this film in this film especially early on in this film that would have been scarier if they went with a different angle when filming. However with the shots that they chose to go with it makes the film less scary because you can see the killer coming and so there's no impact on the actual scare now because you know that it's coming and when you know that a scare is coming that makes it far less scary and far less effective of a scare and this is something that could have been fixed if you just didn't show us that the killer was present in the scene with us.


To me this film is trying so hard to be like Scream since there are alot of scenes and ideas in this film that were done so much better in that first Scream movie. This really shouldn't come to that much of a surprise since the co-writer and producer of this film is Kevin Williamson who of course created the Scream franchise but even so when your doing something that was done so much better in your most well known horror film then maybe you shouldn't do it in a lesser film like this one because all it does is remind people that they could be watching a much better film.

I will give this film this it is better then They/Them in the fact that this film is at least trying to be good where as that film was just flat out bad. Plus this films satire can be pretty funny at times but at the same time when the satire is only funny half of the time and the other half of the time is filled to the brim with cringe worthy jokes then there's something wrong with your film which is a shame because when this films satire is funny that is more often then not when the film is at it's most entertaining and when it's at it's most enjoyable.


To this films credit it does have some rather likable characters but at the same time it's characters are also very forgettable. This is really doesn't help the film out at all since even tho the whole point might be to make them likable and more like real people you also need to make them memorable for better or for worse i'm always going to remember of They/Them because they were memorable but for all the wrong reasons where as the characters in this film are just straight up forgettable and will be forgotten about by alot of the horror fandom five minuets after they've seen this film.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and twenty three minuets and six seconds. Which is both a plus and a negative for this film since it means that we don't have to spend alot of time watching this pretty bad horror film but at the same time it works against the film because it now means that none of this films characters can be fully fleshed out since the film now has to rush to the next plot point which is a shame because this films characters were fully fleshed out it could have gone a long way in helping this film out in the longer run.


So now then since this is a slasher that means 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 pretty tame. Even when compared to the kills in other slasher films the kills in this film while they are cool to look at just come across as being lame and kind of tame to look in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this film had all of the potential and all of the pedigree that it needed to be a good solid horror film and yet it just doesn't live up to all of that potential and so all we are left with is a mediocre horror film and nothing more then that 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 means that this very film earns really does itself a grand old score of exactly a 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 IMP Awards . Com , the official Scream fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being Google Images simply because of the fact Google Images actually has alot of images from this film up on Google Images and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on Google Images were all fairly high quality and as well as being as fairly high definition and so then horror fans we ends this review as we always freaking do with our one and true freaking goddess Elvira wishing us all some very freaking unpleasant dreams indeed.
