X Film Review

One of the most underrated horror films in recent memory is also the film that not only has a prequel film out but also has a sequel film out this Friday. With both this film and it's prequel film having been released in the exact same year and well then with the third film due out this Friday it was only right that the tie in review fro that film also be the first film in the series and so then join me as I review the film that technically has to scream queen in it with the film in question being called simply just "X" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when a bunch of adult film filmmakers arrive at Texas farm to film there next movie they discover that there's something far more sinister going on with the farm elderly couple owners. 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 the films plot being honestly really refreshing as it gives us a new twist on the slasher genre whilst at the same time also playing out alot of the tropes that were and still are seen today in alot of slasher films as well with the films plot also giving us a story that whilst could have been alot better is also an oddly refreshing in some cases new story as well which really is something that the makers of the film really didn't have to do as they could have gave the exact same slasher plot from those seen in the eighties and the film really would have been a very passable film but they went out of there way to give us a new story to tell in the slasher genre 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 future scream queen Mia Goth as Maxine Minx and Pearl and future scream queen Jenna Ortega as Lorraine Day. Also starring in this film is Brittany Snow as Bobby-Lynne Parker , one of this films producers Scott Mescudi as Jackson Hole , Martin Henderson as Wayne Gilroy , Owen Campbell as RJ Nichols , Stephen Ure as Howard , Simon Prast as The Televangelist and James Gaylyn as Sheriff Dentler.

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 tought / 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 truly wonderful performances with the actors that you expect a good performance from really delivering on the acting side however what makes the acting truly standout is the fact that you also get good acting from those that you don't expect a good performance from like the films producer and singer Scott Mescudi as Jackson Hole who really does turn in a good performance in this film with the true standout performer in this film really being Mia Goth as she really does deliver two great performances in tis film is both Maxine Minx and Pearl with the acting in this film really being helped by the fact that the script for this film is just so good that all this films cast 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 film.

To be frank this film does have a bunch of a characters that are both extremely likeable when they need to be an extremely unlikable when they need to be as well. With the best of example of this oddly enough being Pearl herself who for the vast majority of the films running time is presented as someone who is just the stereotypical old woman who doesn't always know what she's doing and that is something that makes her enduring to us the audience and as a result of that is the fact that when it turns out that she's one of the films killers it makes everything that she's done up until that point all the more creepy and when it is revelled that she's one of the killers she immediately switches from being a likable character to being an unlikable character with the opposite being true for Maxine who at first starts out as being fairly unlikable but when the time comes we find out that she's willing to help her friends out which does make her more likable as a character and it's the same thing for all of this films characters as well. 

As alot of you will know both this film and it's prequel were basically being made at the exact same time as when Pearl was in pre-production this film was in production. That is an absolutely insane thing to do as it takes such alot of work to get one film of the ground and yet with this film they had to basically get another film of the ground whilst also filming the first film that just goes to show you that A24 and this films writer , director and producer Ti West really did have alot of faith in not only the Pearl character but in this film as well as expanding upon this film whilst it was still being made is just a crazy thing and it's something that did pay off as alot of people really did love the film Pearl and they grew even more in love with the Pearl character and the world that both of these films take place in as well and it's something that could so easily have backfired if either this film or if Pearl weren't that good of a film and yet because of all of the care and attention that was put into the film not only from an acting point of view but also from a writing and directing point of view as well it weas pretty much a given that this film was going to be a really good film and that people would want to see more of these characters.

This film is pretty much a throwback to slasher films of the seventies and eighties with this film following alot of the tropes that were present in alot of slasher films from both of those two time periods. With that in mind while this film does indeed have alot of the old slasher tropes it does them with a knowing nudge and wink to the past that it makes those tropes feel new and different again but at the same time tho they are still tropes that you can see coming a mile away and while the twist of having someone who would traditionally be the final girl in Jenna Oretega's Lorraine Day be killed of in favour of someone who would more traditionally be killed of early on in the film was a great idea as it's something that does keep you on your toes or it would if it happened earlier on in the film and yet it doesn't which means that the twist doesn't have alot of time to have the desired effect of keeping the audience on your toes and making you wonder who could die next as if that twist happened earlier on in the film that we the audience really would be left wondering who would be killed of next as someone who would be traditionally be the final girl of earlier slasher films.

While the films killers Howard and Pearl are some really good killers from an idea point of view what let's them both down. As the fact that neither of them are given a reason to start killing people which while yes granted is something that is further expanded upon in Pearl it's also something that should have been done in this film as this is the first time that we the audience are getting the chance to see these killers and yet there not being given a reason to start killing people which means that when they do start killing people it really does come out of nowhere and it's something that does hinder them as on paper having this elderly couple turn out to be killers is a good idea but the film makers really did still need to do the most basic of things with those characters like giving them a reason to start killing people and while Pearl is made out to be really unlikable and has a ton of personality Howard on the other hand is the complete opposite with him coming across more of being a blank slate and only killing people not because of the fact that it's in his character but because the script demands that he be a killer in this film.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and forty six minuets and twenty seconds. Which was pretty much the perfect running tome for this film to have as alot of slasher from the seventies and eighties also clocked in at around this same running time as well and to this films credit it really does have more enough there interms of plot to really cover that large amount of running time and the film does take as full advantage of that running time as it quite possibly could have done and while the film would have been alot more better of if it have a much more longer running time as that would mean that the alot of the characters would get alot more character development then what they get in the final cut of the film it would also mean that this film which is already a slow burner would then be forced to have alot of filler scenes in it and that is something that really would bog down the films pacing quite badly as well but I 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 means that means that I have to actually talk about the actual kills that are actually featured / presenetd to us in this very film well then in all hone sty 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. However that's also the problem as the kills that are in this film despite having some artistic merit to some of them just aren't that good either which granted could be the point as the films killers are two people who quite possibly in there eighties and so they wouldn't be moving as fast as they would have done when they were say for example in there forties but at the same time tho there really could have been some really more creative kills then what we got in this film and while we do get some good kills in his film those are very few and far between with the film having alot more kills that are nothing more then OK best then it does have some actually good kills in this film in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall while this film does indeed try to do something new with the slasher genre by giving us a character that traditionally wouldn't be the final girl and by giving elderly slasher killers the film also does somewhat crumble under it's own weight as it has so many good ideas that aren't given the time that they need to fully shine when they really should have done as it would made the film alot more better then what it actually ended up 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 means 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.

The Final Film Review

There are alot of horror films that sadly don't get alot of attention from either the mainstream audience or die hard horror fans alike. With the movie that i;m about to review fro you all today being one such a film as this movie is so little known that not alot of people will even tho this that this movie is close to being twenty years old and it's also kind of a Saw knock off movie as well and so then join me as I review the film that is basically the Saw franchise on an even smaller budget with the film in question being called simply just "The Final" enjoy.

The plot of the film is several outcasts tired of getting bullied decide to get the ultimate form of revenge on those who have bullied and tormented them in the past. 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 as it's story at it's core was one that's rather simple and timeless as it's a story about people getting payback on those that have bullied them but here the plot of the film twists that in a way that makes the story seem fresh and new by giving us some new twists and turns but at the same time tho the plot of this film isn't all that good either as it doesn't do anything that's all that interesting as it's still a plot that you can see coming a mile away and while how you get to those points is a good idea it doesn't change the fact that the plot of the film is also really predictable as well with the plot of this film also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this film is Marc Donato as Dane , Jascha Washington as Kurtis and Whitney Hoy as Bridget. Also starring in this film is Julin as Heather, anime voice acting legend Lindsay Seidel as Emily , Laura Ashley Samuels as Kelli , Justin S. Arnold as Bradley , Travis Tedford as Andy , Eric Isenhower as Jack , Vincent Silochan as Ravi , Farah White as The Reporter , Preston Flagg as Riggs , Hunter Garner as Tommy , Ryan Hayden as Miles , Daniel Ross Owens as Bernard , Mark Nutter as Deputy Henessey and Matthew Posey as Parker.

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 tought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really good. Which was truly shocking as at the time of this films production all of this films cast members weren't that well known and as a result of that is the fact that it would have been foolish to expect even an OK performance from this films young cast and yet the fact that we got a bunch of really good performances really does go to show you just how good this films cast are as nearly all of them turn in some really good performances with one of the few people that don't quite turn in a really good in this film performance is Julin , Mark Nutter and Matthew Posey who really do try to turn in a good performance but they all just can't quite turn in a good performance in this film with the acting in this film not really being helped by the films script which just gives none of the films cast absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there respective characters personalities are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does bring down the overall quality of the acting that's in this film.

While it was a good idea to have all of this films villains hide behind masks it is also something that makes the victims look dumb as alot of the villains have really unique features body shapes that makes them recognisable. Which has the add on effect of making the films look dumb since for example the character of Dane has some fairly curly hair and is the only one in there school with that type of hair and yet none of the bullies can put two and two together which yes might be the point as the bullies openly admit to not even knowing the names of who it is that there bullying but at the same time tho if your going to go to the length of giving all of the social outcasts masks and costumes then at least make sure that there not showing anything that is unique to them and then you can get away with the bullies not even knowing who it is that's torturing them and it would make those that were being bullied look like that they've thought of everything where as as things stand it makes the whole thing look like that it was put together at the last minuet when that's not the case as it's stated in the film that they've been planning for this for a long time.  

It's really plain to see that this film really does alot of inspiration from the Saw films more specially the later Saw sequels. With there being alot more focus on the torture methods instead of the characters and story where as in the later Saw films there would be alot more focus on the films traps and not the characters and the story and as a result of this is the fact that the film really does come across as being nothing more then a Saw trip off film albeit one then at least tries to do something new and different and doesn't just copy the Saw formular to the letter but with that being said tho it does make you wonder why the makers of this film chose to copy the Saw films when it would have been alot more cheaper to do a slasher film as then you wouldn't have to come up with various torture methods and do lots of various make up effects as you could always not show that much of the kill which would save the makers of this film alot of money in the long run but at the exact same time tho it would also require alot more locations which wouldn't be cheap to get tho.

This film does do something that was rather smart and that's the fact that it gets you to care about those being bullied and it gets to hate the bullies. Only to then switch it around and have the ones that your meant to like be the ones that are committing these crimes and the ones that your supposed hate be the ones that are the victims when usually in a film like this it's usually black and white about who are the good guys and who are the bad guys and as a result of that is the fact that there's no twists and turns and yet that's exactly what we get in this film as it makes you wonder who it is that your supposed to like with this being hit home even more when you take into account that the outcasts homelifes aren't exactly perfect either be it because of the fact that there parents are always arguing are they just don't straight up talk to them all of the outcasts have bad homelifes which again makes you route you for them where as all we see of the bullies up until they reach the party where they get captured and tortured they've all been acting like people which makes you wonder if the outcasts were right all along or not.

The film does at least try to make the outcasts human by having them interact with there respective bullies during the torture part of the film. With even some of them accepting there bullies apologises which was something that the film didn't have to do and yet by doing that it does make both sets of characters feel alot more three dimensional as the bullies themselves learn that there actions do have consequences and the outcasts learn that even people who might seem like harmful people are still just that there people and because of that they can mistakes and they need to learn that there actions can and do have consequences and while this is true for a lot of the outcasts the fact that they go and show Dane going slowly insane over the course of the film really does go to show you just how far he's gone mentally and while he's not willing to break his vow and kill his main bully the fact that he's willing to kill of one of the people that was actually helping him and was a very good friend to him does show you that when pushed he is willing to commit murder.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and thirty two minuets and forty seven seconds. Which is pretty much the bogstandard running time for a film like this one to have and to this film it really take as full advantage of that running time as it really good but the film really doesn't have alot there interms of plot to really cover that large amount and as a result of that s the fact that alot of scenes like the outcasts setting up for the party do come across as feeling like filler as they add nothing to the overall plot of the film in the longer run while something  things do indeed come back like seeing Dane lay down a bear trap near the start of the film does indeed come back none of what we see of them setting up for the party plays apart in the films plot in anyway whatsoever and all it does is take away screen time from scenes that could have been used to set up what the outcasts personalities are like and what the bullies personalities which go along way to help to make those characters feel alot more three dimensional then what they already are but I will admit that this film really does have some really food pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is a horror film that means that I ave 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 not that bad. However that's also the problem as this film wasn't all that particularly scary either but given that the films main focus was on the torture methods and not in creating good scares much like the later Saw films that does somewhat make sense but at the same time given that this is a horror film there should be some focus on creating good scares and not just giving us some rather interesting torture methods which at best would make anyone just squirm and not outright scare anyone with the scariest thing in this episode being the fact that actor Marc Donato gets really up close and personal with the people that he's torturing which was fun and at times creepy to see but that's really it as there really was nothing all that scary to be found in this film whatsoever in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall while it's not hard to see why this film isn't all that talked about that much as it is a really small budgeted horror film it is still one that at least tries to do something new with the age old idea of outcasts getting revenge of some sort on those who have bullied them in the past and that is something to be praised no matter the quality of the film that it's attached 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 really does mean that this very film really does earn 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 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.

Night Of The Animated Dead Film Review

It's not uncommon for a popular horror film or a popular film in general to be remade but what is uncommon is for that film to have more then a handful of remakes. With the film that i'm going to be reviewing today being the latest in a very longline of remakes all stemming from the fact that someone forgot to trademark the original film and so then join me as I review the film that is the second animated remake of Night Of The Living Dead with the film in question being called simply just "Night Of The Animated Dead" enjoy.

The plot of the film is when visiting the grave of there father siblings Johnny and Barbera find themselves separated after a zombie attack where Barbera has to try and survive the night in a house in the middle of nowhere. 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 one of the best things about the film as all it is is a straight up beat for beat shot for shot carbon copy of the original films plot with nothing really new or interesting added to it to make it feel fresh and different which does make you wonder they chose to make this film in the first place as just by copying the plot of the original film all your doing is reminding people that you could be watching a much more better film with the plot of this film also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this film is Josh Duhamel as Harry Cooper , Katee Sackhoff as Judy , Dulé Hill as Ben and horror icon and scream queen Katharine Isabelle as Barbara. Also starring in this film is James Roday Rodriguez as Tom , Nancy Travis as Helen Cooper , Will Sasso as Sheriff McClelland , Jimmi Simpson as Johnny , Ashley Lambert as Karen Cooper , Stefan Marks as Vince , Ian Duncan as Dr. Grimes and Kirk Baily as A Truck Driver.

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. However that's also the problem as the acting in this film isn't all that good either with the actors that you expect a good performance like Katharine Isabelle for example not really being given all that much to do and as a result of that isn't really allowed to turn in the kind of performance that we all know that she can do with the same thing also being true for Katee Sackhoff both of whom just aren't given all that much to do and that's sadly true for alot of the films male cast as well with all of this films actors not really being given to turn the kind of performances that we know that they can do and whilst they do indeed still turn in some good performances there not as good as those actors can do with the acting in this film not really being helped by the fact that the script for this film is just so bad as it gives none f the films actors absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there respective characters are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does affect the overall quality of the acting in this film.

Doing the animation for this film is the legends and the greats that are currently over at Demente Animation Studio. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt that the actual animation 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 animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty choppy at worst and average at best as the animation in this film just looks cheap and to be frank really unfinished with it coming across as the makers of this film just wanted to get this film out there for no reason instead of taking the time to actually finish the animation in this film and as a result is that we end up with animation that at times looks decent enough to be passable animation but most of the time just looks choppy and unfinished with the characters themselves having these really chopping looking movements to them and the backgrounds just coming across as being really uninspired and lazy looking at best and while the animation in this film is quite easily better then the animation that we got in Night Of The Living Dead: Darkest Dawn that's not really a high bar to reach with the animation in this film just being lazy and uninspired to look at at best.

This film isn't the first time that Night Of The Living Dead was given the animated film treatment as that honor goes to Night Of The Living Dead: Darkest Dawn. However what sets that film apart from this film is the fact that that film tried to do something new with the films idea by moving the setting to New York and while it failed miserably with that idea due to it's small budget the film does get credit for at the very least trying to do something new with the original films set up where as this film just copies the original which only makes this film feel boring and pointless as why would us the audience want to watch a more watered down version of a story that was done better in 1968 with the original film being one of if not the best zombie film ever made and heck this film even copies one of the biggest mistakes that the original film also committed by having Barbera by silent and do nothing for the overall vast majority of the films running time this is something that the 1990 remake actually went out of there way to fix and yet for some strange reason the makers of this film chose not to fix it either as instead it just chose to copy the film.

To give this film some credit it does do a good job with them handling the tension between both Ben and Harry. With the film making the characters two sides of the same coin in that they both want to protect the people in the house but it's how they both go about it that creates tension between the two as Ben is more of an action hero type who is willing to stand his ground and fight for what he wants where as Harry is a more practical person who thinks things through logically and while both are correct in there way of thinking both are also wrong in there way of thinking as well as being an action hero type of character is great for this situation but it is also something that has a very limited self life as it means that you could get killed quite easily the next time you step foot outside of the house and while being more practical is also great for this situation as it forces you to think things through more logically it also means your not going to be the most popular person amongst those that your trying to protect and are therefor most likely to get thrown out of the house and left to fight all of the zombies and essentially start all over again.

The original film had a really dark ending that saw all of the films main characters including Ben die either at the hands of the zombies or by those hunting the zombies. This is something that this film thankfully does keep as there's no way that you could do a Night Of The Living Dead  film without doing it's famous and iconic ending as that ending is not only such a dark ending that shows that not everything will end up OK but it's also one of the most famous things that the film is really well known for and not to include it in anyway shape or form would be a disservice to not only this film which prides itself on being a carbon copy of the original film but it would also do a disservice to the original film as well and the fans of the original film as well all of whom are checking this film out and while yes the ending in this film isn't as shocking as it once was as this films lacks all of the commentary that was all over the original film that doesn't take away from the fact that the ending is a shocking ending and it's one that makes the film worth watching.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and ten minuets and thirty eight seconds. Which is such a short amount of running time for this film to have as the original film was over one hour and thirty minuets and made great use of that running tome to fully explore characters something that this film doesn't do and because of that the film feels like that it's one fast forward alot of the time when it should be alot more slower paced which would then allow for the films scares to be built up more and would also allow for the characters to get across there personalities alot more something which they can't do with this film as the film has to rush along to the next plot point which makes those plot points feel really unearned because there was no build up to them and yet if the film did take it's time and have that longer running time those plot points would feel alot more natural then what they already but I really will admit that this film really does have some really bad pacing to it tho.

So ow then as 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 was in all honesty not that bad. With this film oddly being more gory then then the original film was with us straight up seeing alot of bone when whenever a zombie bites into a person or whenever a zombie gets it's fingers shot of which was impressive to see but at the same time tho it's not always something that you'd want to see in a Night Of The Living Dead film as you expect a Night Of The Living Dead film being gore free with alot of this films kills having lots of over the top gore which makes the kill go from being really cool to being cartoonish but in the case of Johnny's kill it actually makes his death scene an actually good looking death scene something which every single Night Of The Living Dead film has failed to do and yet it's this film that oddly does his death scene better then when it was done in the original film in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall out of all of the remakes of this classic zombie horror film out there this one is just average at best as there worse ones out there but at the same time it's not as good as the 1990 film either as that film at least tried to fix problems with the original film something that this film really failed to do with this film coming of a cheap cash grab that was really only made to cash in on the Night Of The Living Dead name and really nothing more then that in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good ad 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 4.5 out f 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 ally got all of the images that I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Amazon . Co . UK , Tenor 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.

Seed Of Chucky Film Review

Horror franchises all have there low points and there low points slasher franchises even more so as there's only so many times that you can tell the same story over and over again before your audience begins to get bored. With the film that i'm about to review for you all today being the low point of the Child's Play franchise as despite just releasing the fan pleasing Bride Of Chucky in 1998 the makers of the Chucky franchise decided to double down on it's more comedic tone and so then join me as I review the film introduces us to Glen and Glenda with the film in question being called simply just "Seed Of Chucky" enjoy.

The plot of this film is six years after the events of the previous Chucky and Tiffany find themselves in Hollywood where with the help of there son / daughter they decide to take over the body of actress Jennifer Tilly so that they can start a new life together. 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 bad as the plot of the film is so far removed from both the first Child's Play and even Bride Of Chucky that it might as well be set in a different universe as while the plot of this film does keep the tone of the previous film it also pushes it to extremes that both the original film and the previous film wouldn't dare to do with the plot of this film also lacking clear focus as well 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 Brad Dourif as The Voice Of Chucky and Jennifer Tilly as Herself and The Voice Of Tiffany.

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 alot of this films cast members turning in some really good performances as while we do get some really good performances from this films cast we do also get some pretty bad performances as well with both Redman and Hannah Spearritt being prime examples of that which is of course not there fault as neither of them are trained actor and as a result of that is the fact that it would been foolish to expect good performances from them but it is the fault of this films first time director Don Mancini who despite writing and from this film onwards directing every single film in the Child's Play franchise really should have got a good performance out of all of his cast with the acting in this film not really being helped by the fact that the script for this film was just so bad as it gives this films cast absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there respective characters personalities are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does effect the overall quality of the acting that's in this film.

This film does have alot of meta humor in it which can at times but at times can also be very distracting as well. With the film having alot of fun of Jennifer Tilly's career which is funny at first but it does get tiresome the more the film goes on and the film is filled to the brim with meta humor like that with the film even commenting on the fact that Tiffany is also played by Jennifer Tilly when it really didn't need as while it's a cute joke that the film doesn't drag on telling it's still a joke that was there just to be a meta joke and while the Scream franchise is also filled to the brim with meta humor as well at least the jokes in that franchise are more about the horror genre as a whole and aren't as distracting alot of the time with the opposite being true for this film and while yes Bride Of Chucky also made meta jokes the meta jokes that they made in that film, were more about the Child's Play franchise as whole and weren't just focused on one person with the meta jokes in this film not even being that smartly written either as all there doing is calling out the fact that an actor in this film is playing two roles and one of them is themself and that's really it.

For some rather odd reason this film chose to make Chucky a family man which while it does work for a character like Tiffany as even in the previous film she was always more motherly in nature and would there for be open to starting a family. It's not something that works with Chucky as that's not in his character as he's a character that would be willing to do whatever it takes to survive in any given situation something which we've seen played out in several different films and heck even the entire premise of the films is built on him trying to survive by any means necessary and as a result of that is the fact that he wouldn't be willing to start of a family or even be that good of a father to his son or daughter as that would get in the way of him trying to survive this is something that should have been thought of when writing for the film and yet it wasn't all for the idea of it being funny seeing Chucky in this father figure role which granted yes is a funny idea but it's also something that doesn't really work with his character in anyway whatsoever.

To give this film some credit the very idea of Chucky and Tiffany being in a Hollywood movie is a good idea. It's just a shame that the film drops that idea just as soon as it starts with it just being an excuse to get both Chucky and Tiffany back to life and that's really it which is a shame as this is a really good idea that could have more then supported an entire film with the best thing being that you really wouldn't have had to have changed all the much about the film in order to make that idea work for the film and yet by dropping this ides it somehow makes the film feel weaker as the films cameos either by actual famous people or by lookalikes really do come out of nowhere whereas if the idea of Chucky and Tiffany working on a movie was kept intact then those cameos could be explained away by saying that there working on the movie or there working on a movie that's filming near there or there auditioning for a movie all of which would make those cameos feel natural and a lot less forced and it would also for the makers of this film to comment on things that were going on in Hollywood at the time that this film was being made something which they now can't do as the idea of Chucky and Tiffany making a movie was dropped.

One of this films most divisive ideas is that of Glen / Glenda with the characters not being as fully developed as they really should have been. With the general idea of the characters being that there's basically split personalities going on in Glen one of which is the more calm and lovable Glen and the other is the more psychotic Glenda and while there could be other ways to view the idea behind the two characters the fact remains that both ideas aren't that well done as neither character is given alot of time to really showcase what there respective personalty is with Glenda not even showing up until the films third act and her not even being hinted at at all during the films running time and as a result of that is the fact that we get a character that is really let down by the films script as the character or characters on there own do have the potential to be some really good characters and yet due to the fact that the films script doesn't give them each the time that they really need to be fully developed as characters the idea behind the character as a whole just falls flat.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour ad twenty six minuets and fifteen seconds. Which is pretty much the bogstandard running time for this franchise to have and to this films credit it really does have more then enough there interms of plot to really cover that large amount of running time but at the same time tho this film feels oddly shorter then what it should have been as alot of this film feels like it's on fast forward alot of the time likes there's a few a scenes missing that would help to make this film flow alot better then what it does which makes you wonder if this film was meant to be alot longer then what it was and if this film was longer as well it would also mean that the film would have the chance to fully develop alot of it's  characters as well something which really can't be done with the films current time as the film has to put alot of focus on advancing it's plot and can't really give alot of it's time to developing any of it's characters which is something that really does affect the film in the longer run of things 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 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 not that bad. However that's also the problem as alot of this films kills aren't that good either with alot of the kills in this film oddly feeling really tame for this franchise as while yes we do get some really gory kills in this film those are very few and far between with the film having alot of kills that feel like the kind of kill that you'd expect to see in a slasher film from the early 2000's as alot of this films kills happen either off screen or we don't get to see what actually kills the person in question and yet when we do get to see a really gory kill in this film it's more often the best kill in the film as a whole and it's those gory kills that do also make the film worth watching due how gory they are in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this film is quite clearly the series low point and it's no wonder that for the next film they went to being a straight up horror film instead of being a horror comedy as while yes this franchise has always had it's goofy moments this film took those goofy moments a bit to far in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good ad 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 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 the official Child's Play fandom wiki page , Tenor 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 episode up 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.

Tales From The Crypt Presents: Demon Knight Film Review

There are plenty of iconic horror franchises out there and plenty of iconic horror characters out there as well. With one of those characters being the horror host The Crypt Keeper and the franchise being Tales From The Crypt with the original TV series being so popular that when the series ended the team behind making the show sort to make a trilogy of films based on the franchise with each entry telling a different story and so then join me as I review that is really the second ever Tales From The Crypt film with the film in question being called simply just "Tales From The Crypt Presents: Demon Knight" enjoy.

The plot of this film is when a stranger with a mysterious past and an eve more mysterious object walks into a hotel to stay for a couple of nights all of the staff plus a few others have to fight of a hoard of demons. 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 however that's also the problem as the plot of this film isn't all that good either with the plot of this film not really being epic enough to be a plot of a feature length film as an episode of the show could have told this story but at the same time tho this plot is something that's worth seeing as while it does rely on several tropes from other horror films like this one it still has fun with those concepts and ideas with the plot of the 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 Billy Zane as The Collector , William Sadler as Frank Brayker and Jada Pinkett as Jeryline. Also starring in this film is Thomas Haden Church as Roach , C. C. H. Pounder as Irene , Brenda Bakke as Cordelia , Dick Miller as Uncle Willy , Gary Farmer as Deputy Bob , Ryan O'Donohue as Danny , Charles Fleischer as Wally , John Schuck as Sheriff Tupper , Sherrie Rose as Wanda and John Kassir as The Voice Of The Crypt Keeper.

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 turning in some really good performances with even Jada Pinkett turning in a good performance as well but without a shadow of a doubt the all time best performer in this film is quite easily Billy Zane as The Collector as he really is quite easily the only one that's having alot of fun starring in this film and that is something that really does shine right on through in the performance and while John Kassir is solid as The Crypt Keeper he rather rightfully doesn't really get quite alot of screen time to leave an impression on us the audience but what lets the acting down in this film is the fact that the films script really is just so bad as it gives none of the films cast absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there respective characters personalities are really even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does bring down the overall quality of the acting that's in this very film.

Pretty much all of the characters in the main part of the film just aren't that interesting in the slightest way possible. As there's nothing that's all that interesting about this films characters as alot of them just have one personality trait and that's really it with Jada's Pinkett's character being a tough girl and so she acts tough and that all there is to her character and it's the same thing with all of the characters in this film as all of them just base there entire character around that one personality trait and it's the same thing that true for William Sadler's character who is the self appointed leader of this group of his heroes and he makes that his entire personality trait and as a result of that is the fact that we end up with a bunch of characters that have the potential to be good characters and yet because of the fact that there all written so badly this films characters can't be as good as they could have been with this not really being helped by the fact that the films villain is quite easily the best character in the whole entire film as he's just such a fun character to watch and it makes you wonder why the makers of this film didn't bother to make the characters that your actually supposed to like as entertaining as the films main villain is.

For those of you that don't know this film is an adaptation of the TV show Tales From The Crypt which ran on HBO from June 10 1989 and lasted until July 19th 1996. However what alot of people is that the TV show and by extension this movie are also based off of a comic book also called Tales From The Crypt with the TV show even adapting some of the comic books most stories with this film not really adapting any particualr issue of the comic book as alot of the comic books stories were adapted for both the TV show and the 1972 film of the exact same name and as a result of that is the fact that we get a film that tells an original tale featuring a comic book character that not alot of people would even know is a comic book character in the first place as the comic book series isn't all that well known at least when compared to the HBO series as well which makes you wonder what other horror shows that are very well known are also based off of a comic book as surely this show can't be the only one but it might be the only one that's the most well known tho.

While this film was meant to be the first film in a trilogy of films but for some strange plans for a trilogy were cancelled after the release of the second film. It's hard to tell what that third film would have been like but what we do know for a fact is that a key that was in both this film and in the second film was due to appear in the third film as well and given how bad this film could get at times it's a wonder that they even got to a second film as this film got really bad reviews from critics at the time and yet despite all of that the film was also technically a mild hit at the box office and earned enough money to guarantee a second film which does make sense as this film was produced when the show was at it heights ratings wise and yet because of that you'd think that the makers of this film would put just as much effort into this film that they'd put into the making of the show and yet they don't and as a result of that is the fact that this film really does feel like a cash gran when the makers of this film should have put quite alot of effort into making this film as good if not better then the show that it's spawned from. 

With this film being a horror comedy there is a little bit mor effort put into the films horror aspect which does make sense given the films nature. As the only bit of real comedy comes from both the opening and closing segments of the film with the middle portion of the film being the actual film itself and that's where the film puts in alot of effort into it's horror aspect and to this films credit the film does have alot of good scares and kills in it and while the film doesn't really take as full advantage of it's demon killers as it really could have done the film does the best that it could have done to make those killers seem all the more creepy then what they actually are and that is something that really does work in the film as we the audience don't get to ave a good look at the villains as there hidden in the dark for quite alot of the film which means that we have to imagine what they look like which is something that really does make them all the more creepy and scary then what they actually are with the films kills being just as inventive as you'd want them to be.

Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and thirty two minuets and twenty two seconds. Which is pretty much the perfect running time for this film as while the film does have more then enough there interms of plot to really cover that large amount of running time given the fact that this film is basically just an extended episode of the show the film really doesn't have to a longer running time as all it needs is enough running time to make it to a feature length film and that's really it and that's exactly what we get in this film and while having a longer running time would time would also help the film out as it would give the film a chance to fully flesh out it's characters alot more then what it really does it would also have the add on effect of stretching the films plot really thin and making the film feel like a chore to sit through and would ultimately do more harm to the film that would do actually good to the film but I will admit that this film really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is a comedy that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy 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 comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad. As alot of the films jokes do come from making puns about being dead and that's really it which while they are funny it would still be nice to see the film do alot more actually funny things that they perhaps couldn't do in the show instead of just sticking to what they know works thanks to the show as this movie had the chance to appeal to a more wider audience that perhaps didn't or don't watch the show and apart of that is the humor which in this film could have been alot better as that would also have the add on effect of making the show look a lot more funnier then what it might already be as well and yet all this film does is just copy and paste the exact same type of jokes that the show would use and not really anything that's really all that new to them in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall while it's hard to say if this film is a good entry point for the series as the film really isn't that good but given that the show is an anthology then there really would be no harm in starting with this film just as a way to dip your toes into this franchise to see if you like it or not 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 6 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the image tat 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 Tales From The Crypt fandom wiki page , 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 episode up 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.
