1/10
THE DEAD PET GUY
5 October 2018
Warning: Spoilers
I lost the bet. I bet there could never be a worse Danny Trejo film than "Voodoo Possession." I was wrong.

This film attempts to be a family comedy, but fails in the comedy section and manages to make fun of people with Down Syndrome in the process. Pastor Shepherd (Pastor Shepherd) sells a freeze dried pet service door to door while working for a Down Syndrome manager (Josh Perry). His mother is ill and sends her money to a televangelist (Sewell Whitney). With the help of his non-English speaking neighbor (Danny Trejo) and his hot daughter (Maria-Elena Laas) they pack her up and take her to see Barry in person.

That is pretty much it. Pastor Shepherd isn't a pastor until late in the film. The humor consisted of running jokes about dead pets, Down Syndrome, Pastor Shepherd dorkiness, Trejo's English and TV preachers, none of which were funny to begin with, let alone attempt to stretch out into a film.

The film might work with kids, apparently the target audience.

The movie was substandard all around. Pastor Shepherd is irritating to watch and listen to.

Winner of the Platinum Award WorldFest Houston 2010 for "First Feature." Go Figure.
