Stash (2007)

Two stoner's happen across some psychotic hillbilly nicknamed Bud's stash and in order to escape with their lives they agree to kidnap three woman and take them to said hillbilly. The movie starts with them onto the second, Sarah, a girl who's car broke down on the way to going to her parent's house for a birthday party, while the first victim is still running through the woods of rural Kentucky, completely naked being chased by the maniac. Sarah's dad, Jack who's a retired detective teams up with the local sheriff to find his gore. Genre mainstay Debbie Rochon is also on-hand for a brief turn as the drunken mother of the first abducted girl.I really wanted to give this movie the benefit of the doubt because I know full well that making a low-budget feature length film is hard under any circumstance, and I was going along with it...up to a point. That point being the introduction of 'Bud', he was the most annoying inefficient joke of a heavy that I've witnessed in quite some time. His constant laugh which was supposed to make him sound crazy (I supposed) only came across as heavily grating on my nerves. The rest of the cast fairs fine enough. It's just Bud that ruined the picture for me. No strike that, Bud AND an insanely stupid ending tag set '10 months later' (which I won't spoil, but it's already spoiled for anyone who looks at the DVD extras) Eye Candy: Elysee and Tiffany Taylor bare all (the Making of in the extras also features nudity, as do the some of the trailers) My Grade: D DVD Extras: Commentary by Producer/Director/Writer Jacob Ennis; second commentary by executive producers Billy & Denise Blackwell; a 15 & a half minute Making of the film; blooper & outtakes reel; an interview with Debbie Rochon; video of the special effects guys making 'bud Jr'; music video ('still I bleed' by POWND; and trailers for this film as well as "American Punks", "A Feast of Flesh", "Blood and Sex Nightmare", "Cannibal Campout", "Woodchipper Massacre", "Ghoul School", "Video Vilonce 1 and 2", "Beauty Queen Butcher", "Splatter Beach", "Zombie Bloodbath trilogy", & "Killing Spree"

When compared to modern studio horror offerings, which often miss the point of the films they were inspired by, Jacob Ennis has encapsulated the exploitation films that inspires him perfectly. Much like 1972's "Last House on the Left" or Al Adamson's "I Spit on Your Corpse" Ennis creates an all too real universe of white trash, brutal violence, and backwoods sensibilities. Of course this is often missed by reviewers who would say, "How dare you compare this to 'Last House'?", the same reviewers who idolize "Last House" not because they understand it but because they believe that by worshiping this film they are to be counted among "real" horror fans. It is obvious when watching this film that Ennis understands what made "Last House" work. Ennis will only grow as a filmmaker. For those who understand "Stash" and why it has been embraced by G4, Fangoria, and independent horror fans, we will no doubt see great things from Ennis in the future. If you're expecting the same PG-13, sanitized, studio crap that's being released en masse by Hollywood or the supposedly "shocking" horror of Eli Roth films, then you're likely to be disappointed by Ennis' outstanding throwback to an age when exploitation was not a trend to be embraced by "wanna be" horror fans but by those who "got it" and those who understand that low budget cinema is far more true an art form than what a studio film can provide.

First of all, story hasn't got anything new or special. badly directed movie, worst acting ever accompanied by ridiculous and funny music with stupid dialog delivery by the actors. this movie doesn't make any sense in whatever is happening in the movie. you need to be really foolish if you want to agree the way things are going on in this movie. the actors are acting like they are not ready to do some real acting or like they simply don't know how to act. it also looks funny to see how these actors react in different situations of panic as if they are so cool or are not very serious or depressed.Don't watch it. its a boring movie, a waste of time. even i watched this movie skipping a little bit in between the scenes. if u still watch it, you'll regret it. watch some other movie instead. believe me!

The movie is nothing more than a piece of crap.. Total waste of time.. I think they shot the film using a handy cam, and the camera movements were all the time shaky, needless to say junk storyline... Funniest thing is you will feel, that time is going at a snails pace... Pathetic acting by the actors rubs salt on the wound... I have seen many movies which were total crap but this one tops the list.. I watched this movie after going through the reviews.. But I made a big fool of myself.. Reviews are like opinions... They differ.. But my god, this movie.. The least said about it the better. I think the crew who were a part of the movie, will never ever get any chance to act in any movie again..Don't even bother to review.. it ... Just fly past the movie.. Goshh..
