Review by Noel

Finally…a good After Dark Horrorfest film. Just thought I’d let you know that lest you thought it’d be another one of those ‘there’s a reason these films aren’t picked up by real distributors’ review.

Not that for the most part, they aren’t deserved.

I mean, I LOVE the idea of the Horrorfest film festival as much as the next horror fan…but as last year’s 8 films to snore through showed, with their ubiquitous tagline being something like ‘films too intense for theaters’ but ending up to being films too embarrassingly bad to be considered for theaters (you know, that you have to actually PAY for).

Reviewing the majority of these films is kind of like beating up on the elderly. It’s kind of fun at first…and then it just sucks reviewing them because you become sorry at how pitiful they are. And, you can only come up with soooo many synonyms for ‘suck’.

And so ’07 rolls around with a new ‘8 Films to Die For‘ (please, hold your laughter)…and for the most part the previous four films I’ve seen have pretty much held serve on the suckage factor. Because I’m not reviewing them, I won’t bother mentioning them…and let them disappear into the abyss of obscurity with other ‘8 Films’ like Wicked Little Things (Scout Taylor-Compton WISHES the Halloween remake could erase this from her filmography) or Unrest (or…get a lot of rest because of boredom). (more…)
