    Bad, Okay.

    Goblin is not a fun movie to watch, as silly movies should be. If it didn't take itself as seriously as it did, maybe I would have considered rating it a 4 or 5. I can't honestly say that the movie is fresh in my mind, (having viewed it over 5 years ago), but a bad impression that lasts as long as this one warrants a warning to my fellow movie viewers. Watch out for the Goblin.

    A far better shot-on-video effort than it has any right to be

    Arriving at a new house, a newlywed couple and their friends preparing to move in find that a strange demonic creature has been released from a special protective force nearby by its previous owner and must try to stay alive from the creatures' continuous attacks.

    Overall, this one was quite the fun shot-on-video effort. Like most films in the style, taking into account the low-budget origins here is the most important hurdle to get over. Realizing that the nonsensical plot is filled with plot holes involving how the creature carries out a rampage without anyone noticing, the utterly ridiculous actions that focus on someone randomly running into the creature while everyone is preoccupied, or the technical aspects on display are all part of the charm. The homemade effects, repeat usage of props that come from friends of the filmmaker and trying to pass off the over-the-top reactions as logical is a fools' errand here that would be wasted on viewers looking for state-of-the-art practices or styles. That these are in play like most genre efforts means they're something to be aware of going in and are all problems to knock this down. For those with a tolerance for this kind of film, this one has a lot to like about it. Graced with a fantastic pace that moves things along quite quickly, the multitude of quick, indie-style ambush encounters here generate some solid encounters from the opening attack in the garden shed, to the attacks in the kitchen where it rips the victims to pieces in quite graphic means or managing to kill off the various interlopers across the area throughout the night. The indie-styled gore here, consisting of practical wounds or putting meat on their bodies which are pulled or ripped away as if being dismembered, all helps to enhance the enjoyment of this one. Given the highly ridiculous nature of the storyline involving the creation of the creature and how it comes to be as well as how to stop it, this one has quite a lot to enjoy overall here.

    Rated Unrated/R: Extreme Graphic Violence and Graphic Language.

    • Trivia
      The film's ending, where zombies just appear out of nowhere to attack after the goblin is finally killed, reused a lot of archive footage from Zombie Rampage (1989), a previous film by Todd Sheets. *The footage was supposed to be for Zombie Rampage 2 that was filmed by Mike Hellman in the same house as Goblin. ZR2 was not finished or released by Trustinus Productions. Years later a new script was written and filmed by newer cast and crew members of Extreme Entertainment.
    • Goofs
      The goblin's costume is very visibly coming apart in several scenes, to the point where you can plainly see the actor's sneakers.
    • Crazy credits
      The end cast credits include entries for "Tonia's Feet", "Tonya's Eye", "Tonia's enormous talent at work" (displayed over a clip of a female actress' breasts) and "The Goblin as himself"
