Snatchers

Snatchers may not bring home top scores neither does it try to. It's campy, gory, dumb and fun. The actors are overall great and the lead role played by Mary Nepi does an excellent job! Will most definitely keep an eye out for more of her (hopefully) upcoming roles. I would give it 6.5 but since that's not an option I will settle for 6. Absolutely worth a watch if you like a mix of comedy and gore.

This is very reminiscent of the 2016 indie film HoneyBee even a scene in the first act with the mom checking in over homework is very similar and the wardrobe with all the characters is totally similar its nuts. This movie is quite campy however, very very campy and it knows that and maintains that tone. Some of the dialogue is stiff and feels scripted, but I like the actors cast anyway and think they chose well when casting them. It's a decent indie campy comedy horror flick!

I honestly don't know why this doesn't get more love. I thought the cast were perfect, the cinematography and clever use of direction was superb (a word there I've used maybe 3 times in my life) and the plot plays out fantastically well.

OK sure, the story is actually a bit basic, and the second half completely ruins the pace of the film but, it works for a film that doesn't take itself seriously and the 'monsters' were a bit "meh" but still, this is a film driven by the characters rather than the creatures.

I love it. I also now love Mary Nepi. Mary Call me.

Note: I'll also accept marriage from Halle Berry. Just in case.

I wasn't expecting too much from this movie, horror and comedy mixed together isn't really the genre where you find a lot of gems. But in all fairness I was pretty surprised by the outcome. I had more laughs then with a standard comedy so for that alone it's worth the detour. The "lobster in the neck" had me in tears, that's going to be a cult phrase, for sure in my entourage. Storywise it is what it is, some people are entertained by this kind of stories (I was for sure), others will think it's ridiculous. The horror wasn't bad at all, the acting neither, but the humoristic touch is what makes this movie stand out from the rest. I recommend this movie, especially if you're a stoner and like an odd and weird story, nothing to take too seriously.

I watched this during it's run at SXSW. This film was surprising and soulful despite its ridiculous premise. It stabs at everything from female sexuality to bro culture and women's relationships. I could see this being the next Gremlins or Critters.
