Right, well "Conjoined" from director Joe Grisaffi and writers Chuck Norfolk and Tim Norfolk is listed as a 'horror' movie here on IMDb, so that is what I thought I would be in for. But instead it turned out to be more of a horror comedy, with less emphasis on the horror part.
This is a low budget movie, for sure. But they actually managed to pull off the production quite well, and they managed to give the movie character and style. However, it is a shame that the storyline was limited and the acting performances were not all that impressive - as those made the movie suffer.
There were parts to the storyline that were interesting, and some parts were nicely brought to the screen. But all throughout the course of "Conjoined" is a permeating sense of low budget, for better or worse. However, the movie wasn't the least bit scary, and the comedy elements that were looming over the movie weren't funny enough to draw smiles, much less laughs.
For a low budget movie, I will say that they production and editing of "Conjoined" was quite good, and it was those factors that made the movie watchable. Hence my mediocre rating of five stars of out ten.
I think the nudity that they opted to put in the movie was fully and wholly unnecessary, and it just gave the movie a very unwanted sleazy aspect to it. It would have been a more wholesome experience if they had opted to leave the senseless nudity out of the movie entirely, as it served absolutely no purpose.
While I managed to sit through "Conjoined", I know that this movie will never find its way back to the screen in my home. The movie just doesn't have enough contents to support more than a single viewing.
