Lorry Kikta Film Threat I can't wait to see what Zevenbergen has up his sleeve in the future. If this is any indication, I think he will have a great career. Rated: 8/10 Sep 14, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Elyse R A farcical Troma-inspired film that mutates into something much darker and honest. Never seen anything quite like it. A nihilistic, self-harming version of One Cut of the Dead as made by a wonderful lunatic succumbing to anxiety. Best Lloyd Kaufman cameo ever. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/23/23 Full Review MediumGuy G Haven't even seen this 💀 Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Lots of among us references 😳😳😳😳👍👍👍 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member After watching countless interviews and reviews, I'm still learning what this movie is about, So many people have offered insight into depths I was unaware of, This is more about a film movement, of the people than any one viewing, Go see this again after some time, especially if you have strong feelings for it, be it hatred OR love, maybe wait some years in between viewing; I can imagine the vote for love in the end for what it's worth, as there is truly a touch of sincere humanity and realism behind the absurd debauchery. No one wants to see their friends fall to pain and suffering, and there is a big lesson in the end that our own fears and struggles are not our own alone, as .... !! SPOILER ALERT 🚨 !! ....one friend pays the price for another—- *SPOILER* Someone dies in replacement of someone else, someone who had been considering taking their own life—- Moral to a story, we gotta stay connected and strong for each other, regardless of divisive greeds of fame and fortune 🔮, That even means being kind to your momentary self, as there may be a day when you're called to be of specific help to another, You never know the niche you play in someone else's life. That's what this film teaches me. ♥️, Rocko's ship has just begun its voyage, It's considerate of film itself to give this a chance, he's a clever story teller with a family of friends behind him, And you're gonna laugh. Maybe cry?? Maybe feel a bit of unease...as most horror films will provide— -All in All- Love the cover art 🖼 Love the soundtrack Love the puppetry Love the commitment beyond the coin! 5/5 (I'm no critic) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member My boys went nuts over this movie. Not at all what we were expecting. Really haven't seen anything like it. Not for everybody, but could be a hit down the line... I say check it out! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Absolutely awesome film. Starts off pretty straight forward then turns into a sort of plunge into personal anxieties and fears while also being a love letter to trash films of the 80s/troma/SOV. If you're a fan of 80s cheese, absolutely check this out. The spin might be for everyone, but as someone who wants to shoot their own low budget film, this was like all my fears blasted onto a screen Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Read all reviews
