Here Comes Hell

I'm tired of the individual who somehow believes that if they are critical enough and use all sorts of cliches that paid critics use that somehow they to will become a humorless dink that will look for film school errors and see art when there is none and can't enjoy a well done low budget movie unless subtitles are involved. This was excellent well done fun that was enjoyable from the start and it achieved the feel of a good 1960's B+ feature. I had zero expectations going in and was a little shocked that the setting would be a dilapidated mansion and not at a well appointed sound stage mansion equivalent, but it worked. The acting was far better than I expected with genuine and realistic portrayals of the idle rich mixing with a working class strong female co lead. Tension and jealousy felt real and the story played out in a way that seemed possible even with the subject matter. I fully enjoyed this and as long as your not a wannabe professional film critic you'll enjoy the ride. .

Sort of Agatha Christie meets Evil dead. Quite enjoyable.

Yes the sound quality is poor and the acting could be better... But it's a brave effort and for £20,000 it's surprisingly engaging... Certainly a lot better than "The Dead don't Die" and other Hollywood offerings... If it's cold and raining and there's nothing else on the telly - It's well worth a watch... You won't be disappointed...

*NON-SPOILER*

Here Comes Hell started off a little slow and it took a bit of time to build up to main part of the storyline. It's very difficult to recreate the old-fashioned look when it comes to the picture, however I thought a great job was done in that, credit to the cast too.

Just enough jumps and scare moments to bring the picture to life and although a little confusing in places it was definitely worth the watch in my eyes.

I get why this film was shot in B&W, but I kept trying to see this in colour and really though that it would've captured the picture better.

Overall, for the budget they shot a decent film.

'Here Comes Hell' doesn't live up to its premise of Agatha Christie period piece meets Lucio Fulci gorefest in an The Old Dark House makeover... but it is an affectionate emulation of a bygone era.

Director Jack McHenry does everything in his limited power to transport you back to the 30s: the aspect ratio, black-and-white photography, music, and even the chroma key compositing for car sequences. However, it's made with an excess of heart and not enough substance or skill to create the riotous horror comedy pastiche it wants to be.

6/10.
