5.0 out of 5 stars "Yes I'll pray for Daddy", July 18, 2007
This review is from: The Mesmerist (DVD)
This little movie caught me off guard and had me rolling in the floor with laughter. Howard Hesseman(Head Of The Class, WKRP) is a riot as a father who is just a little past Attila The Hun and he rules over his daughter with a ruthless hand. He is about to die and as his daughter arrives with boyfriend in tow(Neil Patrick Harris), he swears in no small measure that he will never let Neil have his little girl. Enter the quack of the title who plans to hypnotize the old boy so that his last moments are pain free. Problems is he dies while he is still in the trance and things become very strange after that.
The comedy of horrors is very well made and the cast is great, but make no mistake Harris and Hesseman are the show here as they square off over the girl. Hessemans final threat to Harris and Harris' "prayer" for Hesseman are side spliting fun and will have you backing up to hear them more than once.
Very much worth your time and sure to make you smile.

4.0 out of 5 stars I'm reminded of Mel Brooks, September 15, 2008
This review is from: The Mesmerist (DVD)
It might be George Wyner, but these movie had a very Brooks style sense of humor.
It's not for everyone, but if you like dark comedy and Neil Patrick Harris, you will really like this movie.

2.0 out of 5 stars THE MESMERIST DVD REVIEW, July 16, 2006
By 
John (Wildwood, MO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Mesmerist (DVD)
This movie kind off caught me off guard. It wasn't terrible but in some ways predictable. Take for instance the end which related to the Skeleton Key (2005). I would only advise watching this if someone is really board and has nothing to do. Overall, this thriller comedy was better than I expected and I had some laughs which is more than I can say for the other straight-to-DVD thriller comedies like Dead & Breakfast.
