Did an interview with Flick Chick Staci for horror.com |
And we've been getting SLAMMED by critics. Kind of funny, kind of sad.
Ain't it Cool News called it "the best bad movie I've ever seen" Twitch Film called it "one of the most purely entertaining films I've seen in years" I just wish the festival director at Fright Fest hadn't slammed it right before the screening. |
I never listen to critics or other people's opinions. They rarely coincide with my opinion.
I wish they would release it here. I'm dying to see it. |

I'm hoping I get a screener to review because a few of the critics/reviewers on the site I write for fit into that category... Can't wait to check it out. |

I know I ll love it (my immense love for giallos aside), and cant wait for it to release over here. You bet the moment these shores are hit by a print, it ll be mine. |
Don't get too excited. The film is a mess. My hope is that at least it is an enjoyable mess, but I can't really get into the film... too many elements missing from the script
