As with any film featuring the likes of Teddy Ruxpin, this once receives nothing but the highest of accolades from me. Though Teddy Ruxpin's part is quite small in this film, it is a highly concentrated burst of cinematic magic. This arises mostly from the fact that Teddy plays a full-fledged evil character, as opposed to the oft seen creepy good-guy role. Any way you look at it, however, it's movie gold.
Now I would have given this movie the same glowing review if the other 87 minutes without Teddy Ruxpin were just a video of my coworkers baby spitting all over itself. But that's not the case! It turns out the non Teddy Ruxpin parts are equally good! It's a really funny low budget flick that any horror fan would enjoy. It recalls a time when horror-comedies were the medium of choice for indie filmmakers looking to entertain, and this stands right up alongside some of those earlier offerings.
I'd recommend this to anyone interested in independent cinema, but moreover I'd say that all aspiring filmmakers should check this out as it's a great representation of what you can do when you're creative and you don't have that much money.
