Bingo Hell

Very entertaining and well done despite its tonal problems, Bingo Hell is a strangely wonderful little horror gem that isn't afraid to do whatever the hell it wants. I weirdly found myself quite happy with how this film turned out, it wasn't as B-ovie as I expected it to be, in fact it had some surprisingly deeper moments. Tonally this film is all. It can be a bit sentimental at times, a bit goofy, a bit dramatic, and just plain absurd and creepy. It's a mess of tones and it shows that the writers truly didn't know where to go with the story at hand, but it does manage to grab you ever step of the wa and always keep your attention. The acting is quite good surprisingly with Adriana Barraza as the obvious standout, and some other good supporting performances from L. Scott Caldwell and the infamous Richard Brake. The cinematography is an interesting blend of old and new, and the music choices are absolutely excellent. It can be a bit ridiculous at times, as well as tonally frustrating, but in the end this weird bingo horror flick did manage to surprise me and prove to be enjoyable all the way through. It's by no means a great film, or even a good one, but it does manage to be a fun ride.

My Rating: 5.1/10.
