Get Duked!

Like a marriage between League of Gentlemen, Psychoville and Sightseers, with a sprinkling of Four Lions, it's a smart dumb stoner comedy from a scattershot, twisted amateur with a laminated certificate

Be warned - it takes most of the film to reach the above conclusion. Up to that point, you wouldn't be wrong in saying it misses the mark. It has a familiar feeling, with nothing new to bring to comedy-horror, but its young cast act well, and add to a slow-burning story

This film was the opening gala for the Edinburgh Film Festival and definitely deserved the accolade. Quirky and experimental it has many laugh out loud moments in a truly original spin on the old story of city boys surviving in the wild.The director and writer Ninian Doff has a rare original talent and is definitely someone to watch. You can see his music video influences throughout the film giving it a fresh and pacey vibe. A very talented British cast make the most of the heddy mix of horror and outrageous comedy with Kate Dickie and James Cosmo standouts along with the 4 newcomers playing the boys. Surreal and wild this film has an energy that will make you feel you are on a drug induced high. Highly recommended.

1) If you wanna enjoy this movie, lower your expectations, this is not a 10/10, 9/10, neither a MUST SEE movie. I wouldn't call it hilarious, even though there are some scenes that i laughed hard, and, definitely, this is not scary, gory or intense.

2) However, it's funny and enjoyable. Maybe younger people will enjoy it more. I am not young, still i enjoyed it. Characters are very likeable, music is good, this movie doesn't take itself too seriously, and if you are in the mood for a movie like this, you will have fun watching it. Don't expect a comedy-horror movie, it's more farcical than horror. Young actors did a fine job.

3) The ending is great. In fact, as the movie progressed, it was getting funnier and funnier. I would definitely watch a sequel.

As a purveyor of underscrutinized horror films, I really enjoyed this title. I would not necessarily categorize it as a Thriller, which is how I found it, but more like a gruesome comedy. Nevertheless, the fast pace and inane situations made for a fun hour and a half. Definitely worth a watch.

If you are the type who likes their storylines to be well buttoned up and make a lot of sense, this won't, but overall that just made it more hilarious in the end.

I went in to this not expecting much, and knowing it's not exactly high brow humor, but I completely underestimated it. Absolutely hilarious, and gets better as it goes. I can't remember the last time I was genuinely trying to catch my breath from laughing so hard. 100% recommend if you're in the mood for a silly movies.
