Well, I was hoping for a nice campy movie, along the lines of a Bruce Campbell or Alan Tudyk showing. You know, self aware, goofing it up. But in a good way.
This is not it, the three leads are barely what i would call actors. I did not bother to look their IMDB up, but I would not be surprised if this was a first role for any of them and if they never did anything again.
There is a difference between hamming it up and just plain bad acting. These three were bad, period. It just looks as if the people making this were using locals that claimed to acting experience or were simply willing to not get paid, just so they could show up in a film.
The only good thing, and just barely at that, was Nicholas Brendan. And after over 100 episodes of a fairly campy dramedy series like like Buffy, you would expect him to to hit his marks and deliver his lines like a pro. He simply was not enough to elevate the movie, for me anyway.
With some other actors in the major parts that were actually up to the task, this could have been really good. As it is, I would only call it mediocre at best.
I have no problem with people that think it is a good or even great movie, "to each their own". There are parts that definitely work, but they are few and far between.
