It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

If you are looking to have fun with a corny, grisly and badly executed B-Movie, Triloquist is perfect for you. Sure, it's not the best of the Dimension Extremes, but it's definitely not the worst, because as a film itself, this was pretty good on a cheesiness level. The movie, when it actually gets into the main story, starts off with a really cool (yet unfindable) song in which the songstress repeats "f*ck you" in the chorus. I was immediately interested because the main character looked really awesome and kick-ass, and since the movie right away is so cheesy, I knew what I was in for, and I couldn't help but be intrigued by how the rest of the film was going to turn out.Like I said, it's certainly not the masterpiece of the decade, but if you can enjoy films like this, it's gritty, obnoxious, all out enjoyment from start to finish. Overall, the movie is very entertaining. You can't take it seriously at all or you'll end up hating it. The characters are very likable, and even though there is so much crappy material in this movie, such as, right before they kill someone they play one of the most retarded songs ever, which I can only assume is called, "Hello Sunshine," and the brother Norbert for some reason has to dance like a dumbass every second, which is supposedly meant to be scary or some sh*t, it works for them because you shouldn't have been expecting it to be that wonderful in the first place and you can laugh at what's meant to be exploitation.Aside from some material that is neither funny or enjoyable, and aside from the movie being completely bland at times to the point I want to throw up, this is worth the watch for a laugh or just to be entertained, to some extent. I can see why someone, hell, anyone, would hate it, but I watched it with an open mind and appreciated it for what it was.

This Movie, is in the worst "B"-Grade Horror Movie Catagorie. The plot is based off of an Old 1950's show created by Rod Serling "The Twilight Zone" (IMO)-- Ventriloquist dummy is alive -- this does have a little more ridiculous, stupid, and down right very quickly forgotten atrocities. --Some one taking on police force.An abductee, running through the woods trying to escape a crazy shot-gun toting, crazed maniac, then all of a sudden wow -- there's a saloon -- what luck!!!!!!Give me chuckie any day -- and I didn't like that movie either -- But it was hands down a 10 over this one.Waste of time -- I gave it a 2!!!

OK, "Saw" the ad in Fangoria, Dimension Extreme brand more often good then bad, Weinstein brothers always good for a laugh , "FROM THE WRITER AND DIRECTOR OF LEPRECHAUN" first one good, the rest ugh !!!, spotted the DVD looking lonely on shelf, rented it not expecting much.What I got though was 80 minutes of perverse glee !!!!.Don't get me wrong, I'm not much for horror/comedy.I like my gore straight up.But this demented tail is Chucky, Billy and Howdy Dudie with a twist of John Waters. A wonderful abnormal film for wonderfully abnormal people.Give it a try if you enjoy movies that that are outside the main stream. Cudos for the actors playing the sister and the brother. Cudos for Mark Jones, the guy who created Leprechan and who hatched this baby up. And razzies to gorehounds without a sense of humor .

First thing to think about: Don't enter this movie thinking a serious horror movie. It's nothing like that. I guess in a way I blame myself for not liking it, expecting something at least a little bit like Dead Silence.This movie is mainly a comedy, or at least I thought so, because I was not frightened one bit. The voice of the dummy is not scary it all, in fact it reminded me a little of Chris from Family Guy.The soundtrack is the worst of recent films. Painful songs that they play over and over again.Don't expect any cleverness or thrills from this flick. You may get some laughs, but overall, this movie is not good.
