Sporadic film reviews by a wanna-be filmmaker
Because I can’t seem to write for shit at the moment, here is a…. ‘review’ that I am sure won’t be for everyone. It was part of our dearly beloved and departed Shitfest, specifically the Summer of ’15 which featured my only entry into the grand festivities. God, it was that long ago. I miss Shitfest, I really do. One entry was not enough.
But of course, a big shout out to Eric who spearheaded the original idea many moons ago, which I still think is awesome. I would love to resurrect the idea one day.
For those unaware, there are no real rules, other than ripping a movie to pieces that you thoroughly hated. For me, it was written in the most immature, drunken and idiotic way possible; I suppose something to think about when I compare those traits with my own personality.
Huh, now I feel stuck in an existential crisis.
No matter!! The following are the ramblings of a drunken epileptic, so if you somehow enjoyed this utter trash-fire of fish innards camouflaged as a ‘film’, perhaps skip this. Or not, I still think it is pretty funny, seeing as I don’t remember writing most of it.
I would however love to hear from people that enjoyed the movie! Tear me to shreds!!
AHEM.
Time to shut up. For now…
An absolute pinnacle of cinematography for all to behold
ENTRY BY:
AKA
Do you remember, way back, when catching up with friends was fun? We’d watch a movie or a dumb TV show, or maybe something more. But it was a social experience. We ‘hung out’.
THAT SHIT IS DEAD. UNDERSTAND?
Nowadays, friends of mine take out their phone, or their bloody tablet, as soon as they arrive, chatting to other people or sending twitter messages along the lines of “Hi! I’m at Jordy’s house being a massively rude cunt ‘cos he is more boring than cornflakes!! ROFL OMG!!”
I can understand that reaction, really, I can. A goldfish could win in an excitement contest if pitted against me. But take that facebook mentality that makes me want to snap the necks of cute kittens, turn the knob to eleven, and we have ourselves a movie:
“Unfriended”
And if you think that is bad, their original title was Cybernatural. Ha!! Hahaha!!!
Some have tried (and failed, HARD) to label this bag of horse flies as innovative. Some actually try to say that it adds to the canon of horror film because of said innovation.
To that I say No, No, and HELL FUCKING NO WITH A BAG FULL OF DOG EXCREMENT.
Let me ask you a question or three. Or five.
If you answered yes to this quiz, then feel LUCKY!!! Personally, I find that the sound of teenagers screaming all at once, over a Skype connection, is akin to nails on a chalkboard. But… if this isn’t the case, then this movie is for you! I’m sure you will enjoy it, I know this bloke sure did…
God-DAMN it really does look like he is having a blast! God, how much more fun could you have with a blender?! It seems this sizable chap just can’t get enough of the movie, it is THAT fucking ground-breaking!!
Perhaps it isn’t so bad then…. I mean, it just wants to have some fun!
See….!? It just wants to play! Who doesn’t like a good game?
But I guess now we need a villain… I mean, this is a horror film. We need a scary, evil, sly fucker who thrives on eating live uterus for shits and giggles….
HOLE-YYYYYY SHIT.
Scared? I know I’m fucking terrified. What could that image be? Can a person really be shaped like that? Surely not! Fucking albino cunt, he has tits that point towards his face with a perfect blue sky background to match. Which is kinda cool in a strange way I suppose… But still… Fuck him! Fuck It! It is EVIL!! I mean, just look at the powers at his disposal!
Jesus fucking Joseph on a crucifix, it can turn the lights off!! And the expression on its face STILL hasn’t changed!!
I don’t know if I can take much more, my heart is ready to explode. If only there was some comedic relief to relieve the tension….
Perfect! Now she DEFINITELY knows how to party! Finally this movie is lightening up a bit…
…But what about the villain? What awful intentions does that backward-tittied albino bastard have up his sleeves!? Where is it now!?!?! He, or it, surely have found their targets by now…
Well, any of you who know a person called Adam… YOU ARE CURSED FOR ETERNITY AND BEYOND!! Protect your friend Adam at all costs, lest your hand be eternally stuck in a blender while you are forced to listen to constant distorted Skype chat! Congratulations!!
I must extend a major thanx to the Eric-meister as this is my first entry into a Shitfest. I feel blessed, I have finally been baptised by the IPC hellfire! I am clean! My sins are now forgotten!! And to add to that, I had a blast drinking and writing this ludicrous piece for Shitfest Summer, 2015! Thanks Eric!

Movie reviews and occasional rants
What a bore this movie is. Sure, the concept is innovative. It’s just too bad they didn’t do anything with it. Watching a teenage girl use her laptop for an hour and a half is not fun. I have two teenage daughters and there is no way I can sit there watching every move they make for that long and I actually care about them. I don’t give a shit about the people in this movie. As you said, they’re unlikable. That can work with good storytelling. This doesn’t have that. It pointing, clicking, and typing.

hehe, yup yup and yup. How this movie actually had a 60% plus rating on RT when I wrote this boggles the mind

Hahahahaha…this is f–king great. I feel like an asshole for actually liking this movie…but I’ll make up for it by buying a shirt that says #SHITFESTFOREVERBITCHES. I mean, you are selling those shirts, right?
RIght?

hahahaha I’ll get some made up!!
And you suck for liking this movie! And you suck even more for not liking Despicable Me 3!!
I honestly want to resurrect shitfest though.
Eric and I briefly talked about it but he is just too damned busy these days. I might see if he minds if I steal the idea and tweak it to my liking 😉
The name will change slightly though… to match the t-shirts of course!! ;P

I am trying to get a new version up and running, cos I sure as hell have too much time on my hands and it was indeed a ton of fun. The biggest obstacles is getting the word out – its not like I have a shitload of readers!!

This film looks terrible and I’m totally with you or how the freaking society is collapsing – everyone is on their phones these days instead of actually talking to each other. Everything is just becoming worse and worse with each year when it comes to this world

Indeed. Makes me feel older than I am, and I still feel like a complete retard when asking in real life ‘do you use facebook?”
No one uses bloody phones anymore, its confusing!
