      Venita O Great little revenge movie. Walks the line between dark comedy and drama...rape revenge is a hard subject to make funny, but this movie frequently accomplishes that. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/06/22 Full Review Audience Member This film is so much more than it lets on. Of course the tagline said it was a dark comedy, but I was not prepared for just how funny the exploration of this situation could be. Black Widows mines for laughs in taboo locations and strikes great veins of gold. Of course, I expected a few zingers here and there, but I was not expecting the rapid fire, "blinkandyou'llmissagem" kind of back and forth I saw here. That being said-- The humor isn't for dummies, it's not for slow pokes, and the viewer will appreciate that (if you're into that kind of thing). The film also takes the heaviest subject imaginable, and alternates underscoring the gravity of the crime with (much appreciated and needed) comedic relief. The story is meticulously mapped out. Every question is answered creatively and in detail. "Wait, why didn't she just go to the cops? Oh, because this, this, this, this, this. Of course she couldn't go to the cops." Such attention to detail in a familiar situation (murder) is refreshing. In the end, the dramatic elements were well done... However, both director and actors are at their best when they are delivering the laughs. They DO deliver, and do so in spades. I'd be extremely curious to see what this obviously talented director could accomplish on a bigger film... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Quirky dark comedy. Actresses are a hoot. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Funny, funny ladies! Dark, twisted take on do-it-yourself revenge. Enjoyed it a lot. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Funny and dark (like good chocolate). Loved this small jewel of a film. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member wow for a movie that was made for $12k its kinda incredulous i mean most peoples shorts cost more than that to be fair this type of humor is not my style so its hard for me to give it an objective review but anyone that can make a feature for $12k AND release it? well thats amazing Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
