      steve d Too self aware to be scary, too dumb to be fun. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A fun idea but the boring, badly acted, lifeless execution makes it a dreadfully dull watch. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a good movie in my opinion :) Watch it every year during October! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member In this movie you will find familiar faces from shows like: "Buffy, The Vampire Slayer", "Sabrina, The Teenage Witch", "Star Trek: Voyager" and "My Name Is Earl". For some people even that wouldn't be enough to get through the movie since it's been trashed so hard, but to be honest, i believe that if you can get pass the fact that the Piñata demon looks pretty fake, you might actually find the movie quite enjoyable and fast-moving. So be open-minded. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member On par with most of the SyFy movies out there. Could have done without the "pinata vision", everyone wants to take after the Predator movie, but they don't seem to get that there was an actual reason for showing people how the Predator saw the world. "Pinata vision" on the other hand, no reason, just a big red blur. It didn't even help him see souls, the whole reason he was hunting people down, so that was kind of ridiculous. Also, I'm not sure why there were several forms of the pinata, because there was no real relevance to it, it just seemed to change for no reason at all. No story line information, like after so many souls it would turn into a real demon or something, they just decided to make it change into new things. Would have been more of a cult classic if it only had the original pinata form. The CG effects were what you'd expect for this kind of movie, a lot of quick glances of the pinata with blur effects on it to try and cover up the lower grade CG. Probably would have been more fun if they had an actual person in a pinata suit, cause I actually liked the way it looked, kind of had a creepy Chucky Doll vibe to it. All-in-all it was a fun movie to watch, I wouldn't dismiss it totally if you are just looking for something fun and a bit silly. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member A bit low in graphics but good acting and plot! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
