3.0 out of 5 stars
Its not so bad,
By nik84 "nik84" (mo) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Red Hook (DVD)
By no means is this on my list of favorite horror movies, but it wasn't bad. It is fairly predictable but I didn't feel like it was a waste of time. The film quality is okay, the acting has some hits and misses, and there are a couple of good kills. The DVD cover is more menacing than the actual movie, but if you keep your expectations low, you might like this one.

mumble mumble mumble awful mumble mumble movie...,

This review is from: Red Hook (DVD)
<strong>Red Hook</strong> (Elizabeth Lucas, 2009)Either <em>Red Hook</em> has the worst DVD audio transfer I have heard since <em>Nine Dead Gay Guys</em> or Elizabeth Lucas has created the first mumblecore slasher film. Which of these things is actually accurate is irrelevant; the film is worthless either way, another generic slasher film with an all-too-predictable twist ending, character flaws that are plot devices instead of hooks for us to get to know them, and a slew of young-and-beautifuls whose sole reason for existence is to get carved up by Evil Slasher Guy. I'd write out a full review about this mess, but instead I'll let the ratings speak for me: as I write this, the film has a 3.2 rating (out of 10) on IMDB and an 8% (134 ratings) on Rotten Tomatoes. If you're a fan of horror movies so awful that only 8% of the people who saw them liked them, then by all means, give it a go. But if you value such things as characterization, suspense, solid plot, twist endings that actually surprise you, etc., avoid this like the plague. *

2.0 out of 5 stars
The DVD Cover is More Interesting than the Movie,
By
This review is from: Red Hook (DVD)
There's really no other way to sum it up, Red Hook is easily one of the least interesting horror movies I've seen in years. It's a scavenger hunt gone wrong, with a predictable ending. The writers attempt to misdirect the audience halfway through the movie to lead up to a twist ending, but they try a little too hard, making the conclusion obvious.
The film's production quality is poor, and the directing is below average. The cast does a decent job, as most were relatively experienced television actors. I have no idea why the word "unrated" was thrown on the cover, as the kill scenes will only make the average horror fan yawn. The only reason I gave the film two stars instead of one was because I enjoyed the movie's score. I write this review with the understanding that anyone who worked on the movie will probably rate my review as "unhelpful", but I'm just being honest. I thought it was painfully boring, and I'd suggest that you at least rent it before buying the DVD.
