Bury the Bride

So, these characters make some dumb choices. And then they make really dumb decisions. I mean how did you not miss the stupidity of the choices. Women on a bachelorette party have the groom and his backwater friends stop by to "meet and greet." The problem is, these guys (groom included) are obvious rejects from Deliverance, but this only seems disturbing to one of the women, and abrasive for a couple others. Once the intentions of the men are clear, things make more sense on one hand, but all the more unreasonable for the original question of "How did the women choose to get into this situation?" Nothing new then happens but standard tropes of this type of isolated backwater situation. The end isn't too surprising and has an underwhelming tone. Overall, I believe I only fast forwarded about 10 minutes toward the end to avoid the mind numbing chase scene.

Overall this is a fun film -- I give it a C+ -- hampered by issues (technical, continuity, editing, other compromises) likely related to budget and time constraints. The writing/dialogue is lazy in important places, with one or two characters relying on distractingly repetitive f-bomb insults. A few more takes and some thoughtful editing might have done wonders. That said, the film contains some interesting ideas and twists despite its play on standard horror genres and tropes. Key for me are some standout performances, particularly by Dylan Rourke (captivating in an extended monologue) and his gang of henchmen and Lyndsi LaRose, who makes the first half worth watching. The movie contains some solid practical effects as well. Its creative ending was one bite shy of entirely satisfying. Give Bury the Bride a shot and forgive its imperfections. You'll enjoy your time if you can get past the dialogue and a few lapses in logic.

Bury the Bride (2023) is a movie that was recently added to Tubi. The storyline follows a bachelorette party in the middle of nowhere where the groom lives. Things get out of hand when the groom, and his friends, appear with their own intentions for the bachelorette party.

This movie is directed by Spider One (Allegoria) and stars Scout Taylor-Compton (Halloween), Krsy Fox (Underworld Evolution), Dylan Rourke (Jezebel), Lyndsi LaRose (Ant-Man) and Chaz Bono (American Horror Story).

This is a rare Tubi Original that I actually enjoyed. The storyline, setup and settings were good and the plot took a twist I wasn't expecting that was surprisingly good. The horror elements were solid with some good gore, blood splatter, biting and flesh ripping. The diversity of the villains were good. There were a couple frustrating decisions by the characters, but not enough to not enjoy the movie. The ending was okay too.

Overall, this is an average, to slightly above average, addition to the horror genre that's worth a watch for horror enthusiasts. I would score this a 5.5-6/10 and recommend seeing it once.

I had only heard about the title of this movie, but didn't know what the movie was about. And thus, as I happened to stumble upon the movie here in 2024, of course I opted to sit down and watch it, since it was a horror movie that I hadn't already seen. Given my life-long romance with the horror genre, of course I needed no persuasion to sit down and watch "Bury the Bride".

The storyline in the movie is pretty straightforward, though the movie does take a much needed change of direction and pacing around 38 minutes into the ordeal. Writers Krsy Fox and Spider One, with the former also directing and starring in the movie, put together a fair enough script. Sure it wasn't a revolutionary script or narrative, but it proved to be entertaining enough for what it turned out to be.

However, I have to say that it was a bit difficult to buy into the part of the storyline that June (played by Scout Taylor-Compton) would be marrying David (played by Dylan Rourke), because the two characters were just so very, very far apart in terms of types of characters.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, aside from Krsy Fox and Scout Taylor-Compton. It was a rather small cast ensemble, but the actors and actresses definitely put on good performances and carried the movie nicely.

The special effects in "Bury the Bride" were good, and definitely served the movie well.

Watchable, sure, but "Bury the Bride" is hardly a movie that I will return to watch a second time, as there simply isn't enough contents to the script and storyline to support more than just a single viewing.

My rating of "Bury the Bride" lands on a five out of ten stars.

Hmmmm it has promise. But it's a bit unbelievable that the main actress would be marrying that guy. Not so much because of his looks. It's how he treats people. Seems very uneducated. Makes it hard to believe that the main actress would fall for that. Seems very forced in our faces lol. It does have promise the actual Plot. But nah. I would not rate it a 10. I think I am being more than generous rating it a 5. I do Like somewhat of the suspense scenes. Hmm makes me wonder what's going to happen who will live and die at the end. Which of course I have my theories.

Lolol
