Who else thinks this movie is a comedy?


My brother and I a few times laughed because of some lines and funny parts. I'm surprised this is not listed as a comedy on IMDb. As a Dark Universe movie, it feels a bit "so bad, it's good" movie.

I mostly shook my head more than I laughed at how bad the whole thing was but yeah I can see this is being a so bad it's kind funny type movie.

I'm trying to go for an engaging, funny youtube channel so, if you have the time, take a look. Hope you enjoy what you see. Thanks in advance. A review of the movie here-https://youtu.be/rrT_CyvSp5c

At least parts of it were clearly meant to be deliberately funny, whether IMDb listed it that way or not. It doesn't seem to have been intended as a "horror" movie in the typical sense, but rather a comedy/adventure type movie.

The thing with 'it's so bad, it's good' films - you need to be high on something to really enjoy them and get that 'bad=good' vibe going. When you are sober, bad is just plain bad - there's no way around it.

I laughed out loud a few times. I don't think it was a comedy overall but it was definitely more light-hearted than I expected.
