Dead and Gone (2008)

As previous reviews have stated, I get what they mean completely. This film definitely had the qualities of a mystifying Lynchion that seeps in through the cracks that is Evil Dead 2's cabin hysteria and horror!I quite enjoyed the advanced coloration and distortion of madness and reality behind the camera angles. If this was not enough to grip your collar in, there were plenty of hilarious but grotesquely distasteful characters that localize the bumpkin bliss! A pair of bumbling, troublesome brothers; a careless cop vixen; the perverted televangelist and more!It was murder on moonshine!

This sucked, big time.Sock puppeteering is not acceptable in art. In other words, don't toot your own horn pretending to not be associated with, and in this case, the hack-write of this piece of trash.This film was forced, the acting dry.Done by people who just want to build up a resume.Why build a resume of junk? Just to have a sheet of paper to point to? Or a page on IMDb? I love B films and never take them seriously, but trying to tell people to not take it too seriously after all the bad reviews is as transparent as the plot and story.Stick to for-the-love internet zines. That way all your buddies can pat you on the back and make you feel like you have talent.

Forty years after a man kills his wife, children, and himself, Jack Wade (Quentin Jones) brings his ailing wife to the secluded cabin to kill her, because she's a famous actress and he doesn't have any money. As he spends more time there alone, he starts slipping into insanity, and soon his well thought out plan becomes his living nightmare.Boring! Nothing new, nothing exciting, nothing original, nothing worth remembering. It's a movie you'll forget you saw 20 minutes after watching it. The only cool thing was the addition of Felissa Rose as Jack's attorney (and wannabe love interest), since she's a staple in horror movie history (see "Sleepaway Camp" and you'll know what I mean).

Watched it on DVD without knowing anything about it, there was no plot synopsis, no rating, nor any comments on IMDb as I inserted this disc on its release date.Early on it is clear that it is very low budget, I later learned that it was approx. $500,000. The video is of sharp quality but without Hollywoodesque professional lighting. That part might actually please some viewers.An interesting shamble of actors show up for this one, several B celebrities from various professions who may or may not be known to you. I particularly liked the female law enforcer, mainly because of her looks; but also because of something else in her character. The acting in this film, while unimpressive, is not the problem. The main story is thin and its background story alike, but this isn't the problem either. Many aspects of this movie are found lacking, such as the dialogue, but not lacking enough to make me dislike the film. No, the problems I perceived were about pacing, logic and the lack of ever coming close to being scary. Because that is how I like my horror movies - scary. This one isn't.I cannot recommend it to anyone in particular, but horror fans like myself will watch this regardless of warnings. So I wish you pleasant viewing. :)
