A waste of 90 minutes of my life
It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
I must admit, I've only seen the "Dead Chick in the Closet"-segment, although the extended version. It was definitely okay low-budget horror comedy. But furthermore it once again showed the potential of the Branbomm boys.Their most recent full length feature, "Dead on arrival", was a huge step forward for the crew. With this one they play over many genres and I sense flashes of Pulp Fiction's gruesome-death-turn-into-practical-problem. Also i get some Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas vibes from some of the costumes and shots.They do lack the final touch, and I think they could've gotten even more out of this - but it's all in their grasp and I'll be curious to see what they deliver next.
Just as the first Horror Vault, I thoroughly enjoyed the second one as well. Same concept, although there was a lot more humor in the second one, which was a welcome addition I thought.Especially "Dead Chick in The Closet" made me laugh (in a good way), but "Invasion of Privacy" certainly also had a twist at the end that made me smile.. All in all 79 minutes well spend, and those 79 minutes might be the only real problem with the film - it's a bit too short, compared to the first one which reached nearly two hours, but it's still 79 minutes of nice entertainment.
