Mary Had a Little Lamb

I was pleasantly surprised by this horror flick! I am always looking for a new slasher movie! This wasn't your typical slasher movie, which made me relatively pleased. I would definitely watch it again! There were a few spots that made me cringe, jump, question human sanity, and laugh! I would tell people to give it a chance, and keep an open mind as you do so! What I liked the most is that something like this could actually happen! The final twist took me by surprised. When I looked into the movie at first I wasn't sure what to think, but after hearing from several of my close friends to watch it I decided to rent it and see for myself. I am planning to buy it!

I recently viewed the UK slasher 🇬🇧 Mary Had a Little Lamb (2023) on Tubi. The plot follows a podcast team facing termination, desperately seeking their next big story to save the show. Venturing into the woods, notorious for historical murders and recent disappearances, they stumble upon a mysterious mansion where they encounter a welcoming host named Mary, who offers to guide them to what they're looking for...

Directed by Jason Arber (Divide by Zero), the film stars May Kelly (Pterodactyl), Christine Ann Nyland, Gaston Alexander (Vikings: Battle of Heirs), and Mark Sears (Wolverine vs Deadpool).

Mary Had a Little Lamb capitalizes on the success of "Winnie the Pooh: Milk and Honey." The villain sports an impressive costume, delivering some solid kills. While there's gore, most of the kills lean towards entertaining over greatness. The protagonist bears a resemblance to Lindsay Lohan, and Christine Ann Nyland's portrayal of Mary is commendable. Despite its simplistic storyline, the film offers plenty of enjoyable moments and captures the essence of classic slasher films.

In summary, Mary Had a Little Lamb proves to be a fun addition to the emerging fairy tale horror genre. I rate it a 5/10 and recommend it to fans of this emerging genre.

Okay, I'm starting to believe that there's a factory someone in Britain which effectively has a 'production line' which churns out low budget horror films based on source material related to children fairy tales. I'm a fan of horror flicks in general and don't mind the odd low budget if the movie makes up for it with other qualities. And not I've seen a fair few on a well-known streaming service which all basically have the same cast, the same location and, as mentioned, very loosely based on a children's nursery rhyme.

Now, if all those qualities don't unite them - they're all also pretty dire. However, this one was actually decent (and I use that word loosely!) enough to keep me entertained for the duration. But, don't get wrong - it's no masterpiece, even in terms of B-movies.

If you didn't know what the film was called, you'd probably never guess it was based on a nursery rhyme. You'd probably just think it was called 'Poodle Maniac' or something, as the killer runs around with a giant mutated poodle's head on him. Or at least it looked like that particular breed of dog. Unless anyone can tell me what other animal it was supposed to be?

A group of podcasters... do you care? Do you really need to know what the reason is that means yet another group of people are stranded in the middle of nowhere (this time in England) well out of the reach of mobile phone range, but just in reach of a mother/son nut-job combo. You won't care about the characters - two of which make up both halves of the most awkward and unlikely couple I've seen on screen in a long time. The others all just have weird accents like they're English trying to do an American accent, or vise versa.

About the 'best' cast member is the screwy mother, Mary. She chews up the scenery like you've never seen. Not a great actress, but at least memorable among the cast - I'll say that. And the gore's not bad either. It's not amazing in as much as none of the kills are particularly inventive, but at least they look realistic (as realistic as when you've just been killed by someone dressed as a half human/half farm animal).

In terms of horror B-movies I have definitely seen worse. Many I end up turning off within the opening twenty minutes. This one was bad, but it was watchable in a bad sort of way. Does that make sense?

This movie did a great job of making me feel it was nearing its climatic end when in reality I was only 5 minutes into it. May Kelly has a great voice but it's hard to watch as her lips don't move when she talks, just her mouth opening and closing. It's like a weird meat puppet mouth.

No lightbulb was actually harmed or turned on during the filming of this project.

It's very heart warming knowing that all these "filmed in a day" movies have an eternal home on Amazon prime video to justify Amazon continuing to raise prices and lower quality.

Wait, I forgot I was watching this movie. Mary have had a little lamb, but Carla has a bull ring and an appetite for mutton.

Rhys Frake Waterfield had a hand in this but i only just saw it recently. I kind of passed it up by accident and found it on ebay. I am very easily curiosified or so. So i had to see it. Killer Sheep? Please. Thought it might be like Black Sheep. Close. I love, love the 2 Killer Pooh Bear movies, very much. So the "little lamb" is quite large, quite large. So his mother was a woman and his daddy a sheep? Not how its said in the movie but okay women aren't raped by men and have half human half sheep. But whatever, i went with it. Poor kills. Story was fair. 20$ budget. The ending cuts off. Not near as good as the blood & hunnys.
