Lose and wretched remake
milkhole21315 April 2022
This is a loose remake of the fun 1971 Del Tenney movie. It's filmed entirely in The Philippines which is one of the film's very few positives. This is a rare horror movie that is set mostly during the day. The acting is pretty dismal and the characters bland. Most of the dialogue is drowned out by the soundtrack. There's a gay guy who likes to go around shirtless in his underwear which I can't even imagine people of that persuasion finding erotic. The star here is Sunny Leone who has limited screen time. Late in the movie the gay guy is possessed and rapes here and we get to see both of their butts, the only nudity here. Sunny is still very attractive and used to be in Penthouse and involved in the sordid world of pornography. She doesn't even really dress provocatively which would have been a boon to the film.

This is only 71 minutes long but at that length still drags as the horror doesn't really kick in until like 50 minutes. There's a bit of gore including a small amount of skin-eating. Not nearly enough to redeem this sludge. Since this film is loosely connected to the world of Dustin Ferguson it of course has some footage from the original film. This is shown through a filter and won't make you want to watch the original. The original is at least fun, unfortunately this is a nothing movie you can safely avoid.
