HEY EVERYBODY ITS ME, (4) !!!! And today we review ..... night of the creeps 2 ??? Electric boogaloo ????
SOOOO apparently somewhere this film got called night of the creeps 2.0 ..... and for good reason it follows the same idea ...slugs enter you....uh.....and you become a zombie ...now in nature there are actual fungi that inhabit bugs and drive them insane , then those bugs climb the highest plants and stay there until they die and release spores of the fungi to start all over.... SO i mean for an invasion plan .... slugs to make zombies IS a pretty sound tactic ......AND we have seen this idea in MANY other zombie / zombie like films and sci monster films like this since the original night of the creeps back in the 80's SO that film left quiet the impression it seems
BUT this isnt a sequel ......well not officially at least
and please note from 2007, this is the director/writers only film, and thats sad because this is actually a decent little romp of zombie fun over all ..... sure the acting is rough and the over all production is .......average at best .... BUT its for sure a fine attempt and a REALLY good first film .......here we are pushing 20 years later and think of where he could have been by now IF this is his first one !!!! Too bad man ....
it seems at an hour and 22 it probably got cut for gore and maybe titties even (youtube rules i get it ) so watching it for real probably would make it better even ........
the acting is .... meh , newbs it seems but not bad, on par with most indie / low budgets no no complaints , about as expected really
FX are decently done over all ......i mean for what they did , they didnt try to do more than they could it seems and thats a smart choice, sometimes less really is more, knowing you cant pull off million dollar FX means DO NOT TRY TOO ..........instead keep it simple ... blood and done if needed lol.....and it pays off better than tryhard and fail hard ....
lighting was all done REALLY well, they used alot of natural lighting so always smart choices there BUT when they didnt you can tell they knew how to match things up pretty good so again good job ....
just all around good job ...........i wish this film sucked more so i could make fun of it BUT its pretty decent so ........dang lol...
6/10.
