Some might argue it being C or D Horror I reckon. But it does have Chucky in it (not the doll itself, but the actor lending the voice to the doll) and Brad Dourif actually takes his role seriously. I was wondering when I saw him, if he would just phone it in or go for it. It's the latter and he doesn't have that much to work with.Still this Horror movie with a lot of fantasy and I guess a bit of folklore if you want to call it that, has some charm to it. It does a couple of things right and they tried framing and editing it and generally making it look like a lot more expensive than it had to spend. So if you have a heart for small budget movies, this may be something for you
Nah! Come on!? Seriously? Bad, this was bad. I mean, I checked the tags and it read: Horror/Mystery/Drama but...Couldn't they headline it: for teenager? I got the feeling it's meant for youngsters, cos the flick was as boring as could be. A feeling as if I was reading a book for age 10 to 16....I felt unchallenged. I needn't watch young people to discover love and sex and what you have...Why on earth aren't there any good horror flicks, anymore? I wish they wouldn't remake classics, but much rather come up with their own ideas. Worthwhile ideas. It's all about a quick buck, so is the result. Terrible. A pain.
Well, I just finished this movie. It's interesting but my Summary pretty much says it all. I put off watching it because I thought it had Stephen Dorff (the hot one) and not Brad Dourif (voice of Chuckie). I think you have to be from the south and/or understand a southern mentality to kind of appreciate the disturbing mental drain that is played out in the movie. There is a great deal about the plot that is very messy and oddly placed. I mean honestly it reminds me of the old series Tales from the Crypt. It isn't really SCARY as I thought it would be. It's more drawn out and disturbing more so than anything else. It was shocking to think that the soft male lead is that long-haired pot smoker in the TV series Mom. Wow he went from twink to stud! You probably should skip this movie unless you are looking for a take on a ghost story meets Romeo and Juliet meets some strange bits of supernatural incest. It would have been better if they had cut out most of the actors/scenes and spent more time building Amanda's back story.
I loved this movie and that is more than I can say for 99% of the horror/supernatural movies I have seen on Netflix. Last Kind Words is the kind of movie that leaves you feeling a little dead inside when it's over(pun intended) but in a way that is both stunning and haunting. The story is simple yet effective and allows this movie to entertain and scare without having to be cliché, overly gory, or loaded with special effects. I went into this movie expecting very little and got way more than I bargained for. I will not sit here and tell you this is the best movie I have ever seen or even that of its genre but I can tell you if you watch this movie you will not be disappointed.
