This dumb movie has a surprisingly sly sophistication... Go to Full Review

1/5
Even with the over the top silliness it’s clearly embracing and relishing in, it’s not quite able to be convincing enough as a spoof comedy of a B movie. Go to Full Review

7.5/10
[The Velocipastor] offers constant humor and action that’s reminiscent of films from the 70s and 80s. It never takes itself seriously, which makes it easier to enjoy the film even more. Go to Full Review

...If you go into THE VELOCIPASTOR just excited by the title and a man with dino hands, I think you are going to have an amazing experience in low budget indie horror. Go to Full Review
Josh Goller Spectrum Culture 05/06/2022
Despite hammy acting, no-effort practical effects and a plot that feels like the sugar-fueled daydreams of a hyperactive eight-year-old, The VelociPastor finds redemption in how faithfully it embraces camp. Go to Full Review
Jason Shawhan Nashville Scene 09/25/2021
2019's The VelociPastor is 75 minutes long and features dinosaur effects from Party City's inflatable aisle, but it knows exactly how seriously to take the material (not very). Cohan is disarmingly charming, and the laughs and gore pop up regularly. Go to Full Review

Stephanie V @Steph162 3d The VelociPastor is a movie that fully embraces how ridiculous it is. The acting and special effects are very low budget, but that’s part of the joke. The movie doesn’t take itself seriously and even makes fun of its own flaws. The plot isn’t very important but the random humor keeps it entertaining. This is not a "good" movie in a traditional sense but it’s fun if you enjoy over-the-top, so-bad-it’s-good films. The VelociPastor is weird, silly, and surprising if you know what you’re getting into. See more Valeria P @valp15 4d The VelociPastor is so ridiculous and funny. See more Sami A 4d Came to this movie expecting Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter levels of cheese but man this was cheesy as hell and even though it was intentional it was oddly funny. See more Wendi F @wendydj 4d I had the idea that The VelociPastor would be a a dumb/bad film and it was ,but it was surprisingly interesting. It was so ridiculous it was good. One thing you cant say about it is that its boring/unoriginal. See more Justin N @justinnave 4d The VelociPastor is exactly as ridiculous as the title suggests—a low-budget movie about a priest who turns into a velociraptor to fight crime. It’s messy, absurd, and clearly made with a sense of humor about how dumb it is. Definitely not "good," but extremely fun if you enjoy campy, midnight-movie chaos. See more Leandro O 4d I mean it was an alright movie. The story wasn't really there and it was just kind of all over the place. It's a fun watch don't get me wrong, but the only movie I can really compare this to is Cocaine Bear. Even then, I feel like cocaine bear is more memorable than this movie. See more Read all reviews
