1.0 out of 5 stars You'll Only Enjoy Hitting the EJECT button on Your VCR..., December 13, 2000

By

This review is from: Killjoy (DVD)

Let me start by saying that I love horror movies, and I enjoy cheesy ones as well. Full Moon does make some really great trashy movies (The Puppet Master and Subspecies series for example), but this one is just plain trash. In fact, I'm very angry that 90 minutes of my life was wasted on this crap. The plot of the The plot concerns a guy who loves a girl whose boyfriend is a hoodlum. In order to pay the guys back after getting beaten up, the guy invokes Killjoy, some kind of killer clown demon to come take care of his problem. Well, nothing happens, and then the hoodlum and some of his partners kill the guy, and one year later, Killjoy pops up to wreak havoc. I probabaly just made that sound a lot better than it actually is. The movie has no continuity. In the first scene, the guy attempts to ask out the girl, but is then beaten by the hoodlum and his partners. Cut straight to a scene of the guy sitting in a circle surrounding by candles holding a clown doll and "calling on Killjoy". I couldn't figure out what was going on, like who or what is Killjoy? In addition, there's an ominous mystical man who looks entirely like a wino and gives no explanation of what Killjoy is and disappears in a flash of light (demonstrating some really bad SFX). This movie seems to get everything wrong. It takes its incredibably stupid plot seriously, the acting is terrible, the script is full of cliches and bad dialogue, not to mention the Killjoy character. After the movie wasted a good half-hour getting to him, any seriousness the movie is going to attempt goes down the drain when he opens his mouth. First of all, Killjoy laughs after everything he says...everything! And it gets really annoying when nothing he says is funny. If you're looking for a good horror movie, this is not it. If you're looking for a bad horror movie to make fun of, this still is not it, and if you're a full moon fan, notice that this an especially ripe turkey. In addition, there's a documentary included that is actually the only fun you might have with this movie. The seriousness of the actors and producers, who treat this movie as if it were CITIZEN KANE are laughable. Beware! The box makes this movie look like some trashy fun, but the only fun you'll have with this movie is hitting the eject button on you're VCR to get rid of it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Another reviewer Agrees... REALLY BAD MOVIE, January 15, 2002

This review is from: Killjoy (DVD)

I'll second the other reviewers here... but first let me say I have been a Full Moon fan for years... this is not only one of their worst films, but one of the worst films by any large video production company I have seen. Zero redeeming qualities... bad acting, inane script, crap directing, and heck, even bad background music. DON"T WASTE YOUR TIME!

1.0 out of 5 stars Bargain or waste of money?, April 29, 2003

By 

"cerealkiller_17" (England, UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Killjoy (DVD)

I saw this DVD cheap in a shop and was expecting to take home a modern day 'IT', made in the year 2000- relatively new. However, I should not have wasted my money. It is a low budget film, with a script written by a high-school student who obviously has NO talent. The costumes and storyline are awful and there isn't a scary bit in the entire film. Music is cheaply made by those that produced the film and even if it isn't supposed to be taken seriously- it's definately not funny! It is described as an 'ethnic' film in the making of it, meaning you feel as though its exclusive to black people with the jokes and dialect. I cannot believe they made a sequel!!!!!!
