Steve Biodrowski ESplatter Penny Dreadful is an enjoyable combination of psycho-thriller and slasher horror, which somehow achieves a slick, Hollywood-calibre visual style in spite of its modest budget. Jul 7, 2008 Full Review Steve Dread Central Somewhere in here there is a great flick hiding. However as is, it's dreadfully too long. Rated: 2.5/5 Nov 19, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member You see, Penny is scared of what might happen in a car 'cause she was once in a bad accident. So this whole film is her trapped in a car with a killer outside... Could be a simple is brilliant kind of concept, but it isn't. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member It is a overall funny scary movie. It’s so bad it’s good. There is a few crazy points where you really sit back and think dang she is in a bad situation. It’s one of the 8 scary movie film box set (so far my favorite) however there was only 7 released from what I can see. A decent flick. Not scary but decent film. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/12/19 Full Review Audience Member Great acting!!! Im not a fan of the vampire, zombie genre, but I really enjoyed it! Filmed entirely in Dublin, the sets and costumes were amazing! The character development was perfect. At times this can be VERY gory and crosses the line with the sexual content. Further more those scenes added very little to the plot but exposes the disturbing minds of the characters. Its worth the binge. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member The show was great but it had one major issue, my boy got so preoccupied with staring at the gay sex scenes that he stopped paying attention to me. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Rachel Miner whines and snivels, and the scares are few and far between. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Wtf is this naked ass looking demon things????? Hey aren't even hot correction no one is hot in this what a horrible waste of my tvs time I came home and saw my cat watching it then it got up and jumped into a wall. We all know why like Jesus if u actually watch this ur prolly a hermit that sits in ur little corner of the couch played it ps4 for 9 hours a day and has to be paid to go hang out with ur "friends" ð???
