Eldritch USA

I laughed so much watching this. It's nerdy and fun! It's Eldritch horror meets the American Midwest and they pulled it off with the perfect touch. Even tho it is comedy horror, I'd say it's safe for most of the family. There's a musical element that elevates the experience of the film, however I wouldn't call this a musical. I still have the "spell" they sing stuck in my head months after watching it. I'd love to see more from this creator. It's a smaller budget film but that doesn't take away from how enjoyable it is. You'll be glad you watched this. Bonus: If you're from the Springfield, Missouri area, you'll also have the pleasure of spotting familiar places and faces.

I was lucky enough to see this movie at Alamo Drafthouse in May 2023. The movie is a mix of genres - part comedy, part horror, part musical.

The cast and direction are all superb. Nobody ever puts a foot wrong, performance-wise. With the exception of a fight scene at the end and some small technical issues that most non-filmmakers will never pick up on, this never feels like a homegrown indie movie. It punches way above its weight. I actually thought the majority of the film's sound had been ADR'd as the sound quality was so good.

The comedy was better than most so-called comedy films. It's genuinely funny and had a few really good laugh-out-loud moments.

The movie is part musical, and all of the songs are superb and you'll find yourself foot-tapping and singing along.

You will enjoy this film if you are looking for something different and fun and you appreciate creative and original ideas in a movie. It really is a breath of fresh air and I hope the filmmakers and cast of this film go onto greater things as they absolutely deserve it!

Highly recommended.

This is camp horror at its finest. Great writing, acting, and you can tell a lot of effort went into its production. It's also a musical, which makes it that much better, in my opinion.

All the actors have great chemistry and timing, and you could tell they were having fun.

The story really plays with tricky family dynamics, and sibling rivalry, as well as the lengths people are willing to go for their family.

All in all, I definitely enjoyed watching this movie with my friends. It was just the right amount of horror, wit, and music.

Highly recommend for those who enjoy the horror/comedy genre.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie! I wasn't sure what to expect going in, but found it was a great mixture of horror/comedy (my favorite genre) with the addition of some great music! Picture Army of Darkness meets Rocky Horror Picture Show.

I did catch a few small mistakes in the film, (one scene accidentally showed the name of the town they were filming in instead of Eldritch, and the lip syncing on the songs wasn't right on a few songs), but they weren't enough to distract from the plot.

My granddaughter and I watched it together, and we both agreed it was fun, so it's definitely a film for young and old alike!

Eldritch USA was a really fun to watch! I enjoyed the story, songs and the actors very much. It really is unique in that it's a horror/comedy and a musical and it was honestly hysterical.

I totally expect this film to become a cult classic. It has a very, "Little Shop of Horrors," feel with the gore and the songs, but the story is very different. Two brothers are rivals at work and in life and a deadly accident puts one brother in the position to make a series of bad decisions that winds up changing not only his life, but the small town he lives in as well as many of the towns' people.

Don't want to give too much away though because you need to see this film!
