i probably give this more credit than it deserve because it halloween and i be just at knott scary farm and i be in a mood to watch a really cheesy halloween movie . oh and and it only cost me one dollar . usually i will ffwd through a movie like this to get to the good stuff and but i resist the urge here and i be still not sure why . it be obvious from the opening shot this wasn not a real movie and not even a b movie . it more in the category of the decoteau horror movie like the brotherhood that be shoot on film look video for about 50 cent ( in fact and i be half afraid any minute one of his beefy college boy would stagger out rub himself in his underpants or something ) . there be no cutaway shot ( too expensive to do multiple camera setup ) and flat lighting but . it hard to pinpoint . there something refresh about watch a director with no money pull off a half decent movie . the fact that he do even a half decent job be commendable and and this movie have it share of merit the act isn not bad and the photography be pretty good ( if too bright to be scary ) and there be some surprise and and the whole thing be sort of . different somehow . a bunch of college kid be ( for some unknown reason ) stuck in the warehouse where they be decorate the annual haunt house . a creepy old man give them a satanic book and they accidentally summon up the power of hell . this result in the costumed people in the haunt house become who they be make up to be and and cause a lot of mayhem and human suffering . along the way we be treat to an oddly complex and thoughtful lesbian relationship subplot it interest that this couple seem to be the most well round in the movie . yes and there a sex scene but it isn not salacious or at least no more so than you would find in any legit movie about lesbian that show them have sex . it rather unusual for a horror film to take the time and effort to do this without resort to cheap exploitation . the other thing about this that hold my interest be how it be clearly try to emulate the stupid kid have sex and get kill vibe of the 80 slasher . it hard to take that on because there be so many of those film that already exist and the genre have be do to death . i be not sure if it good or bad that these filmmaker simply try to make another entry in that genre and without irony and a if it be still a living genre and but i appreciate the attempt . which be why i sit through it while sometimes you just want to watch a mindless and no budget and a for effort horror film . there really be too much set up and not enough gore and endless plot hole and dead end and clichés and the unfortunate overall feel of a movie that simply do not have enough money behind it to be the film the producer envision . but at the very least the haunt house scene be pretty cool . i would pay to go to that haunt house if it exist and and do not mind pay a dollar to see it on dvd even if i will never watch this again . oh and and possible spoiler and but there be great and brief business with the vampire girl in the coffin represent i use to be claustrophobic . but i have change . ha ha and good one .
