    This is a waste of time...

    You might want to take heed and actually step back from this movie, because it simply isn't worth it. And yeah, the incredibly low score on IMDb is definitely a clear indication of how abysmal the 2021 movie "Decapitarium" really is.

    I still opted to give the movie a chance, despite of its low rating. Why? Well, because it was listed as "Re-Animator" meets "Stranger Things". Yeah, well "Decapitarium" was not even remotely near that.

    The storyline told in "Decapitarium", as written by writers P. J. Hruschak, Jeff Dunn, Travis Dunn and Michael Spivey was just horrible. It astounds me that four people could collectively manage to come up with something laughable as this.

    Not only is the storyline rubbish, but the acting performances are rigid, wooden and amateurish at best. I can't claim to have found any enjoyment in the acting performances put on in this movie.

    Sometimes a B movie is so bad that it becomes fun to watch, if not downright enjoyable. "Decapitarium" was no such movie. Nay, it was just downright bad.

    The special effects in there movie were bland, but not among the worst of special effects I have stumbled upon in my many years of watching low budget horror movies. And that cyborg in the movie? Wow, are you kidding me? They couldn't find an actor without a massive beer belly to portray a synthetic person? Whom would build a cyborg with such a massive beer gut?

    Do yourself a favor and stay well clear of "Decapitarium". Some of us suffered through this ordeal of a movie in some or full extend, so you don't have to. My rating of "Decapitarium" lands on a two out of ten stars.

    Worth it if...

    If you know and realize a"head" of time (see what i did there) that this is absurd, and don't expect much, it's a fun film.

    Yes, it's not great. No, it's not "Hollywood". But it's a bunch of indie filmmakers who came together and made something, and that's better than nothing. The production quality is higher than some I've seen, so it's definitely got that going for it.

    No, the acting isn't great. Roll with it. I did, and I even chuckled a few times. Plot isn't great, but again, if you go into this film with low expectations, they'll all be met. I enjoyed the film for what it's worth, and I give props to the filmmakers for getting it out there. I really don't think people outside the industry have any idea how hard it is for indies to get a film to this point.

    Solid 5/10.

    Truly abysmal

    I have watched many low budget movies, but this is without a doubt the worst movie ever. The story appears to have been written by a seven year old and is pathetically predictable. The acting ranges from very bad to atrocious. If you watched the opening scene, you will have a good idea of how bad the movie is. It doesn't get any better from there. A waste of your time.

    If you think "Plan 9 From Outer Space" is high art, this one's for you!

    The headline says all you need to know. If a truckload of cheese in sci-fi is your thing, this movie is IT. Yes, there ARE shades of "Re-Animator" in this one, and this one DEFINITELY is in the same vein as Ed Wood's "classics", with "so bad it's good" fun to be had with it's nutso script, nuttier SFX, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers robots, and acting that induces gut-busting belly laughs for ALL the wrong reasons (Are they the right reasons? Who knows! LOL). One thing is sure, I WON'T forget watching "Decapitarium".
