Beast Mode

Yep, this is light & weak parody movie. You will nothing gain (or loose) watching (or not) this.

Well, "Beast Mode" wasn't exactly the most memorable of movies that made it out of 2020. When I sat down to watch "Beast Mode" from directors Chris W. Freeman and Spain Willingham I hadn't even heard about the movie. But the movie's poster/cover was interesting and caught my attention, and the fact that the movie was labeled as a horror comedy definitely won points with me.

But the movie wasn't really a bag of potato chips and then some. Sure, it was watchable, but it was hardly an outstanding addition to the horror comedy genre, and there are far better movies readily available in this genre. But yes, it was watchable, albeit a less than mediocre overall movie experience.

It was primarily the storyline that didn't really tickle me in all the right places. The storyline just felt too simplistic and at no point throughout the course of the movie did I feel like the writers delved into a well of aces. The things portrayed in the storyline were just too bland, I'm afraid.

The acting in "Beast Mode" was adequate, and lead actors C. Thomas Howell and James Duval definitely carried the movie well enough, when taking into consideration the limitations imposed upon them by the simplistic script and storyline. It was fun, though, to see familiar faces such as James Hong, Ray Wise and Robert Costanzo make appearances in the movie.

All in all, "Beast Mode" came and went without much of a stir. And this is hardly a movie that has enough contents to it to support more than a single viewing. My rating of "Beast Mode" settles on a four out of ten stars.

It's rare that I see a movie that can make me laugh and creep me out at the same time. Although I enjoy any movie that Douglas Bennett plays in.

I don't think this is anything special but the 3.5 score must be hating. The premise is a little bit out there with the face cream, but the cast does a good job. Solid B horror movie score.

You got Frank from Donnie Darko in two roles, C Thomas Howell, and freaking Ray Wise. Thats 80s, 90s, and 00 nostalgia wrapped in one.

Think of this as B monster movie comedy cheese Dorian Gray with an LA/Hollywood setting, and theme of being shameless for fame.

The beast-looking monster is created when someone puts on the shaman drug dealer's face cream and is changed because they are being controlled by an ancient parasite. I bumped this rating up a star because look, I bought this movie from Dollar Tree, and I'm very entertained. I will probably go back and grab a few more copies for stocking stuffers lol.

/End Review.

Worst horror movie of the year, but the way theyve overdone their task of gruelling gore blood and horror ,amplifies everything else about this film, because the comedy is beaming through the ointment of hell.'

so if you can collaborate with a terrible story, bad special effects, and a very ironicly angeled gorehorrorcomedy its a recommend, i had a few laughs and thats usually a sign of clever devious filmaking. there aint much else to say that its a bad acted, bad story that has a fortunate outycome in the end.

so its a cultclassic for the nerds, thinks the grumpy old man
