Audience Member Es divertidilla, pero se me queda corta con la mala baba y la comedia tufa en la segunda mitad de la cinta… Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member this is only good for laughs since its pretty much making fun of everyones fears and misconceptions of satanism.. but then they had to mess up the end and make is suck! low budget would be an understatement in this movie.. dont recommend unless you were raised in the "panic" and know its bs to where you can laugh at it.. and possibly be under the influence of something lol Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Although the topic of the "satanic panic" craze that went on in the us in the early 80's is in desperate need of a serious approach, you won't find it in director Marc Selz dreary Satanic Panic. This is not a movie, this is a joke. And the joke is clearly on us horror fans. Don't be fooled by the terrific artwork on the dvd sleeve. What's behind it is pure horror and not in a good way. How movies like this keep getting released is beyond me. Simply awful!!!!! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member among the worst of the worst Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member It's not often that I struggle to watch a movie to the end. But this film succeeded in getting me to turn off. The storyline was weak, disjointed and didn't drag me in at all. That, mixed with blood which looked distinctly like strawberry sauce (did they run out of red dye funding?) and action which was predictable and terrible effects. I would not recommend this film at all. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member 2009 US Director: Marc Selz Score: 3 The synopsis on this film said it was about a young woman coping with the trauma of her and her twin brother being abducted as a child by a “satanic cult” and she escaped but her brother didn’t. Ok, got it. Unfortunately we have to sit through the first ten minutes or slightly more of bad acting in a section that was supposed to look like documentary footage. None of it actually advances, or even begins, the actual plot of the film. So, after that the plot begins to unfold, or so I thought. It unfolds slowly, and is full of mediocre to downright sub-par acting as well. The main group in the story actually doesn’t have anything to do with the little girl. They just happen to be camping in the same area. So basically that means that the first twenty or so minutes of this 82 minute film is non-plot advancing stuff. The film maker tries to make it better by bringing the little girl back into it later as a grown woman. By then, we have a jumbled mess of a plot full of poor acting and it gets even worse when the woman’s slain little brother (Toby) suddenly appears as some kind of vengeful monster. Despite the attack of the Toby monster and his sister swearing revenge we end up with our entire main group of campers dead and an ending that clearly indicates the satanic cult is still fully functioning. That leaves me (and I assume anyone with the ability to think logically) wondering why the brother/monster and sister were brought back into it all since they didn’t actually make a difference. The special effects are laughable. I saw better “stage blood” just last Saturday (Halloween) on several costumes than was used in this production. The soundtrack was, thankfully, not so bad that it distracted from the movie but it was pretty forgettable and ineffectual as far as supporting the on screen “action”. So we have a mostly badly acted production with a jumbled plot that really throws logic out the window by the end and just introduces things for the hell of it. It wasn’t really worth the time it took to watch it. Notes: GV-HL-N-SA Suggested Age: 16+ Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
