Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer
People say it's like The Evil Dead. I can see the connections, but it's totally not as fun. The only real action takes place an hour into the film, and while it's non-stop from there, it still doesn't reach Evil Dead status. I don't think Jack Brooks compares to Ash, either. Still a good watch. It's not GORY, persay, since most of the liquids are green goblin ooze, not blood.
Bloody Murder
Wow, what a rip-off of Friday the 13th. Shameless, too. They don't even try and pretend F13 never happened. And one of the characters TRIES to be self-aware, ala Scream, but it's just a bad attempt. The acting is horrific, as is the camera work and sound... VERY much like a softcore production on late night cable. Seriously. I think that's the nail-on-the-head. Softcore without sex.
