Blood Pageant

Who is writing all the 10 and 9 star reviews for this movie?? Snoop was literally the only saving grace! Terrible acting, dialogue, plot, music- really it is pretty unwatchable, but I must be a glutton for punishment, because I watched the whole thing! :D :D :D :D.

This is so absolutely inept, poorly made, amateurish and annoying that it's unfair to label it as a film. I can only imagine they spent their budget on Snoop Dogg's cameo, (or somehow 'Bowfinger-ed' him into the film), and everyone else worked for free. There's a few actors trying hard, but the direction so absent, the cinematography so stale, and a story so nonsensical - this isn't even "fun" bad... it's just bad. And kind of depressing.

And then it slowly becomes frighteningly apparent this isn't a normal horror movie - it's "faith based." It's a non-horror horror film, where any scares or laughs are lost to nonsensical monologues about the power of Jesus. It's almost as if Jesus' PR team paid for product placement throughout the film.

Not all faith based, or Christian films are bad, (The Exorcist, The Mission, Constantine are all different, unique, compelling and entertaining), but this one definitely is. For both the faithful and non-faithful this is nothing but a weird, confusing and boring exercise in formulaic filmmaking with zero creativity, intellect or sense of humour.

Did not know this was going to have this many comedic scenes. Loved the satirical take on reality shows and also for having a positive message at the end. A true good vs evil story.

This is sincerely one of the slowest movies I've seen in a long time. The editing is shabby with backgrounds developed for characters that I didn't care about and I'm sure most people won't either. I also didn't see this faith based horror flick thing coming and even that was ineptly done. Forget where you stand on that this is terribly acted, directed, edited (needed to say that again), and a complete waste of time.

Everyone is entitled to their opinions but I have to think that those giving this 9 and 10 must be shills.

Blood Pageant is a really fun film that falls somewhere between a suspenseful supernatural horror and a comedy that dives into the world of reality TV. It has a great balance between the genres that make it a unique and entertaining film.

Also Snoop Dogg is friggin' awesome and the rest of the cast (Joanna DeCastro, David Chokachi, Ellia English, and more) were spot on fantastic!

It's definitely one of the titles on Amazon that's worth buying, not just renting, because it has so many small details and jokes that you get when you watch it over again. Also watch through the credits, there's something you don't want to miss at the end!
