A fellow enlists his buddy in the illegal boat transport of his Haitian Aunt and Uncle to the USA, but their progress is halted by a group of vigilante justice Bubbas who mistake them for drug smugglers. The group is abducted to a small island for execution and burial...business as usual for the goat-roping renegade lawmen. Situational complications transpire, during which the Haitian lady is shot and killed. Her husband, revealed to be a voodoo high priest, summons the murdered drug smugglers from their graves...along with a giant crocodile-headed cadaverous beast. Slappy chaos ensues as the good guys AND bad guys scramble to get off the island.
A thoroughly gonzo little side-order from North Carolina, MARLEY'S REVENGE is an eagerly effectuated amateur endeavor from the director of NIGHT FEEDERS(2006), another waggish horror hayride involving monsters vs. Southeastern U. S. rednecks. Its a rattletrap achievement even by the lax standards of regional horror cinema, but definitely weird enough to put a goofy grin on your face. Too, the practical monster effects are pretty imaginative and ably executed for a such a penny-ante offering. It looks like a project which was a lot of fun for those involved, and that gives it a likable sort of countrified charm.
4.5/10...while it doesn't really pull off its intended "buddy film" brand of humor especially well, it's a watchable enough oddity which should appeal to...ehh...well...you know who you are.
