– (2017) – An already dysfunctional office becomes a violent free for all when the staff is infected by a virus that feeds on emotion. Offers a unique spin on a tired infection genre, but still has too many typical areas. Wears thin by the mid-point, and tends to drag as events become more predictable.
– (2016) – A bandaged stranger makes Christmas difficult for a family he has secret ties to. Shows signs of life every now and again with a dramatic inclusion or bloody murder, but the other 90% is geared toward awful characters and pathetic humor. Badly edited and horribly conceived.
– (2002) – A college student goes on a killing spree over becoming a professor’s assistant. A dumb-but-somewhat-fun slasher that unwisely links itself to another movie solely to cash in on the title. Everything within has been seen before and is beyond predictable.
– (2008) – Rival skiers compete for the domination of a hill while one of them becomes a wolf. A spoof of an already lame movie that does little but exploit ’80s sport cliches. A Chris Sever letdown as too many lines are repeated from other entries and too many once-humorous mannerisms now amount to nothing.
– (1994) – A private detective becomes involved in the magic used by Hollywood in the 1940s. The idea suggests a campy good time, especially considering the cast, but most of this is an inept drama that lack any conviction. There’s hardly any magic involved, and most attempts at humor hit a wall.
– (2017) – A college student dies over and again on her birthday while trying to figure out why. There’s no way this can’t be compared to the vastly superior Groundhog Day, but even if this were an original idea it still wouldn’t be very good. The biggest blunder are the attempts at comedy when the lead actress simply isn’t funny. Almost okay, but the outcome is a travesty.
– (2012) – Vacationing friends drug a religious geek which causes him to go on a killing spree. As awful as the initial premise is, worse is the experimental film school nonsense that occurs within. Aims to complicate and confuse, and succeeds, but forgets one major factor: how to entertain.
– (2012) – A killer escapes from a mental institution near where juvenile delinquents are picking up garbage. Despite the $3.95 budget, this does have moments that feel like a real movie, mostly when dealing with humor. The horror is too cheap, though, and the outcome too abrupt.
– (2012) – Teens on a religious retreat are picked off by someone who began their descent into murder seven years prior. Starts off with great traces of humor and gore, but doesn’t take too long to not head anywhere new. Maintains a humorous vibe throughout, and never hides its own cheese factor.
– (2017) – A girl who’s afraid of clowns is haunted by the ghostly form of one. Hard to condemn since it tries to have commendable characters and horrific moments, yet the payoff is lost to confusion in the skittish plot. Rather stupid and annoying, and the villain isn’t exactly menacing.
