5.0 out of 5 stars The Title is true to it's self, December 8, 2004

By 

Shaun O'Donnell "Shaun O'Donnell" (Fort Worth, TX USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Last Horror Movie (Unrated Edition) (DVD)

How Ironic in that the title of this picture almost speaks the truth about not only this movie, but the genre from which it is placed in as well as movies in general.

The last Horror movie is about a psychopath named Max who videotapes himself killing people (even to go so far as hire an assistant). However he is also documenting to a certain degree on life itself. We see the ins and outs of his life, from spending time with friends and family, to his job as a wedding video recorder. However the real meat and potatoes of the movie is the fact that this guy is a coldblooded killer. But because he is so witty and charming he does not fit the profile of the deranged killer most know about.

What really makes this movie is how it was made. The killer is recording this on his life like it's a documentary and at many moments is talking directly to the audience. That's right at many moments the killer actually talks to you. It's because of this and many other reasons that this is highly recomended. In truth the title is right, this is the Last Horror Movie, or at least the Last Origional Horror Movie.

1.0 out of 5 stars After reading all the reviews of this, I wanted to watch it, March 13, 2005

This review is from: The Last Horror Movie (Unrated Edition) (DVD)

But this was a huge letdown. First of all, the premise may actually be okay with a killer documenting his kills. But I thought this movie was actually going somewhere, which it wasn't. I really never saw the point. After the first 10 minutes, the 3 other people who were watching the movie with me were so bored that they asked to put another movie in. They even asked me whether The Last "Horror" Movie was supposed to be a comedy. What a complete joke. I decided to try to finish watching it, because I figured it had to get better-- but it never did.

I disagree with an earlier reviewer who said the acting was good. The acting in this movie was horrible. It seemed as though they simply pulled people who had never acted before from the street to do this. Compared to this, actors in Friday the 13th would win an Oscar.

Next, you really didn't see any of the kills. The ones you did see were not well done-- the only ones you were able to see is when someone may have been stabbed with a knife or strangled. They were rather lackluster.

If you would like to watch a good foreign horror movie, I'd say pick up a copy of the Woman in Black (England) or Ginger Snaps (Canada). But please save yourself 80 minutes and don't watch this.

4.0 out of 5 stars Intelligent horror with a real shocker ending, March 30, 2005

By 

Pauline Koal (Miami) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Last Horror Movie (Unrated Edition) (DVD)

Those looking to be titilated by gore, exploitation and sensationalism best avoid this intelligent character study masquerading as a horror movie, because it's likely to tick you off .

Either that, or serial killer Max Parry is using our morbid fascination in violence and death to establish a common ground and prove that he is not the complete monster we immediately judge him to be.

In fact, he could be the guy next door.

He could even be me or YOU.

This is the smartest movie I have seen in a long, long while.
Probably too smart for a mainstream audience, hence some of the negative reviews on this site.

But if you count yourself amongst the more discerning viewers and are looking for brain food, then you will not dissappointed.
