For the longest time I thought "The Last
Airbender" was the most insulting live action adaptation.
They weirdly have a lot in common. But somehow the level of competency has plummeted even deeper! This is one of the worst looking films I've seen from a visual perspective. And the acting is an even further departure from the iconic anime characters they're portraying.
This movie makes "The Last Airbender" and "Death Note" (2017) watchable, that pretty much says it all!

"B*tch you da sauce!" Hahaha
No, this was actually pretty good for a YouTube short film. Well shot, extremely funny, and Ralph's roots to Italian culture really shine here.
The sound design/effects are pretty good in the restaurant. Although in the beginning there's a shot with the three men talking across the street and the ADR was very noticeable. It sounded as if you were right next to them, but the shot was across the street from them. But these are common mistakes for beginners shorts and I've made far worse mistakes in my shorts.
Overall I really liked it, but I don't really know how to rate it so I won't. Would recommend tho!

In fact everything about the films presentation was spot on. The score, cinematography, direction, and practical effects are everything that I want from a horror film. There are good themes of family as well. The Pierce Brothers were definitely going for a old school approach on horror, and I miss that style.
As much as I wanna praise the movie for this, it falls flat from the bad script and characters. Everyone is a cliche, from a defiant kid who's had a bad family life, to a generic love interest, and the father who just doesn't understand his kid. I found them very boring and uninteresting. The script was also very conventional at many points in the film. For example the main character does a Google search and now knows nearly everything about the witch. We also have the kid get bullied for no reason, I'm so sick of this trope in these kind of movies.
My best advice for the Pierce Brothers is to get a better screenwriter. I think they make much better directors than writers. But because of their awesome skills as directors I'm still interested to see what they do next.
