Killer Cakes

KILLER CAKES Competition/Reality

4 out of 10 stars Time to Read: 30sec

BASIC PLOT: Contestants make sick and gross horror cake sculptures for judges, and Matthew Lilliard

WHAT WORKS: *THE CONCEPT IS GREAT! It's what's missing from regular TV, a disgusting, horror fanatics competition cake-off.

WHAT DOESN'T WORK: *THERE'S ONLY TWO EPISODES What can you accomplish in two episodes? Answer: Not much

*THE WRONG TEAM WON They're was an obvious winning team, and they didn't give it to them, which left a bad taste in my mouth about the whole show.

TO RECOMMEND, OR NOT TO RECOMMEND, THAT IS THE QUESTION: *IF and that's a big if, you got some decent judges, and if they judged correctly, and IF they made it 8 episodes like the rest of the cake shows, it might be worth watching. But I can't recommend the first two episodes, avoid them, you'll be pissed if you don't.

CLOSING NOTES: *I HAVE NO CONNECTION TO THE FILM, or production in ANY way. This review was NOT written in full, or in part, by a bot. I am just an honest viewer, who wishes for more straight forward reviews (less trolls and fanboys), and better entertainment. Hope I helped you out.

The ONLY reason I rated this 9/10 stars is because I don't know if there will be more episodes & I want more.( its a mini series so probably not ) Big Fan of Matthew Lillard & Danielle Harris and now a fan of Nikk Alcaraz!

Matthew was an amazing funny host. Danielle and Nikk were very fair in their role as judges and looked like they enjoyed themselves. So jealous that they got to be there.

The two people who designed the effects were amazing as well who put in a lot of time to help the contestants make their work really pop!

The contestants worked hard to make their scary cake art have a terrifying design and effects. Very creative. I enjoyed watching this and wish/hope there will be more.

I do recommend giving this a go!

I like the quirkiness of the hosts and the addition of the animatronics team to make the cakes come to life. It would be neat to see the team try to get those to work on their own as well. I also like the judge for his own creations that he makes. And everyone loves Matthew Lillard, so him as a host is funny and light and I think the small details from the crew were enjoyable. The cake artists were phenomenal. As far as the background for the hosts, there was a short clip of Matthew lillard, and then at least 4 or 5 of the other host which is mostly just provocative Halloween themed body shots which didn't seem relevant to the show, it felt like an ad to someone's Instagram. More movie scenes references instead and wholesome content would've been better.

Potentially a very enjoyable show. Killer Cakes is a good concept and contestants created some horribly good cakes. Matthew Lillard as host was a good fit. His OTT style suited the show.

Could have done without the input from the special effects team. Didnt really see the value add with their contribution.

Would have preferred to spend more time on contestants. Didn't get to know them very well. Only 2 episodes was disappointing. Hopefully it leads to a longer format competition.

600 charamcter minimum is pointless. I don't need to include words for no reason and I have seen shorter reviews. Why??

Gory and horrifyingly amazing, but it felt like it was pretty much a tease. It's so good and it makes you want more episodes...I want more episodes. I love watching cake competitions especially Halloween ones. Horror is was I love. This show gives more gore and some special effects than other shows. The fake vomit, blood, with the special effects, on top of how realistic a lot of the cakes presented was just an amazing job the cake decorators did. Creepy and top quality cakes that sounded delicious. Best host and special guests. I just love it. Hoping they do more cuz this show I would continue watching.
