Here comes Hell

I remember this ... well not fondly as you can tell by my rating, but I can remember it well. And while this isn't a high score, it is also doesn't mean that I hated watching it. It was just nothing that impressed me much. And I have to admit personally even annoyed me at times. The humor was not always hitting its mark.

But this is a low budget effort and the makers where at Frightfest and I remember them also being friendly and lovely people. That being said, I am not sure if my rating and hence my review annoyed anyone who actually really love(d) this. I can't and won't say anything that I don't feel - that doesn't mean I know better or that I am right with my view on things. It is just how I see things. I do not like the cliches this uses, how it seperates the people/characters in this - or how they "act" (pun intended) ... that being said, feel free (unlike the characters in the movie) to disagree.

*NON-SPOILER*

Here Comes Hell started off a little slow and it took a bit of time to build up to main part of the storyline. It's very difficult to recreate the old-fashioned look when it comes to the picture, however I thought a great job was done in that, credit to the cast too.

Just enough jumps and scare moments to bring the picture to life and although a little confusing in places it was definitely worth the watch in my eyes.

I get why this film was shot in B&W, but I kept trying to see this in colour and really though that it would've captured the picture better.

Overall, for the budget they shot a decent film.

Ha! Good old campy black and white horror fun, with some more modern gory effects and probably what Diane Behindstein would classify as 'assault weapons'. Add some bad jokes and cheesy one liners and what you've got is a pretty entertaining little flick.

A little House of Usher moment at the end and you have a decent 6/10

I'm tired of the individual who somehow believes that if they are critical enough and use all sorts of cliches that paid critics use that somehow they to will become a humorless dink that will look for film school errors and see art when there is none and can't enjoy a well done low budget movie unless subtitles are involved. This was excellent well done fun that was enjoyable from the start and it achieved the feel of a good 1960's B+ feature. I had zero expectations going in and was a little shocked that the setting would be a dilapidated mansion and not at a well appointed sound stage mansion equivalent, but it worked. The acting was far better than I expected with genuine and realistic portrayals of the idle rich mixing with a working class strong female co lead. Tension and jealousy felt real and the story played out in a way that seemed possible even with the subject matter. I fully enjoyed this and as long as your not a wannabe professional film critic you'll enjoy the ride. .

Sort of Agatha Christie meets Evil dead. Quite enjoyable.
