Bad Movie (spoilers)
I can't believe I watched the whole thing.
I can ignore crappy effects and bad filming for a good story. I mean it's obviously one of those movies filmed over 7 days and made on the cheap.
This movie didn't even know what it wanted to be or how to pace it or go about doing it.
The plot was... well not any worse than other horror movies I suppose. Kids to go party and have sex, grave robbers (ron jeremy & friend) dig up a body and steal a magic amulet. Bodies rise from the grave and chaos ensues.
Already more of a plot than most horror movies right?
The guy with the amulet was a vampire of some sort which was immune to holy symbols and sunlight. Zombies raised from the graveyard and a single ghost made an appearance to terrorize one of the girls in the party house.
No party even starts, just one pair hook up for sex - which is filmed out of order. clothes keep comming off and on the girl & guy. I swear for teenagers in a haunted house, they had the damned longest makeout scenes. Like 4-5 minute of them just kissing and groping showing panties and eventually a hand covered boob. Not even full frontal boob. They're in one position then another then back in the same again and back in the other... the editor must not have even cared.
The kids and grave robbers are in this house for like half the movie with one person running outside then back inside then upstairs then over the roof and onto the ground outside (mind you, because the door was frozen solid with ice !?) all without zombies.
It's only once you hit this halway mark one kid goes into a long explaination on why the house is supposed to be haunted (To explain why one girl saw a ghost and is hearing things in 3 scenes). Once that is over, Ron Jeremy goes into a long speil about the history of this amulet like he's a historian talking about the cult the vampire priest had in life with black masses and sacrafices.
The zombie makeup is really the highlight of the movie. Some are good and others don't even look made up. The zombie death scenes are strictly amateur in the transitions from human zombie to maimed fake body.
The movie could have done without the vampires and ghosts and actually been better.
The highlight of the movie was a naked zombie girl in the first 15 minutes. Not even RotLD naked, but she was nude and acting like a seductive zombie :)
I too was suckered into renting it because it looked cool at Blockbuster. In fact the back cover is the lame vampire. The front cover (and DVD cover) wasn't in the movie as far as I could tell. If it was they took the coolest image from the whole movie and digitally enhanced it.
Cool it was not.
