Michael Ledo I will try not to spoil too much of the plot, although I am not sure how much that matters with this film. In the small Appalachian town of St. Illwater, Pennsylvania, just a stone's throw from Mildred's 24 hour diner, lives Esmerelda Winfield (Marina Sirtis in a role that screams for Dee Wallace) and her granddaughter Samantha (Bianca A. Santos- see DVD cover). Granny is the protector of the people from wolves, something she passes on to her Samantha to fulfill her destiny...like after she is killed by a wolf in the first scene. The zombie Red Riding Hood comes out of the grave to fight against shape-shifting werewolves because flame throwers and automatic weapons are useless against them...Apparently you need +5 red cloak armor and a +6 wolf sword.This is an Asylum film, which should say it all. Low budget, bad acting, bad script, but somehow pop culturally entertaining as it mixes Zombies, Werewolves, and Little Red Riding Hood in a rather bad fashion making a statement about who are... or not. There were no vampires or Wookies. Hopefully they will combine this film with their Hansel and Gretal series (that explains why no Dee Wallace) to make a super bad, but entertaining film series..."Wolfnado" anyone? Dialogue includes bits and pieces of humor.This film is not for everyone. Just for Asylum bad film fans.F-bomb, sex, nudity ( Ashley Doris- Miss March 2013)
demented_one I am a fan of the B movie genre, so I am more forgiving than most.This movie wasn't bad. Would be a good movie to watch if you have your buddies over for pizza etc.The plot hung up a few times, and the storyline was so nonlinear that it caused me to say on one or more occasion ...Why is she doing this? or Couldn't this have been written a bit better? If it was then it wouldn't be a B movie.My final answer is 'watchable' and nowadays that has to be enough.
marcwiechmann This plot Oo :-D Lady in the woods passes the crown to her granddaughter to become some kind of Zombie-Vampire-Werewolve-Buffy-Chick, so she can protect the small town from a supernatural evil, the Denmother. Why she had to be dead for that, who knows...It felt like an over-length Buffy episode, and it showed the same trademarks - TV look, effects that change between super bad and surprisingly good, dialogues from hell, and a cast that is fairly talented. Especially Eric Balfour, this good old veteran, does his job just as good as he always does. Bianca A. Santos, the "Red Rotting Hood", did her job well, too. The rest was overacted mostly, but still okay.Some of the Special FX were really bad, like the 3 guys changing into wolves - I've seen this done better by small YouTubers. Some other scenes were really cool though - the director knew what he had to do with a small budget and focused on key scenes done well. A fight in a small town, at night, with lots of trained animals, flame throwers, 30 or more extras, CGI - this is not easy ! The main antagonist effects (don't wanna spoil you guys !) were not state of the art (or time), but still looked good - you needa be fair here, this is not a 200 Million dollar Hollywood movie.Also, finally a horror B-movie without any night scene problems. Not one single time I had to try hard to recognize anything in dark scenes - so, good job from the lighting and camera department !The dialogues are the biggest weakness of the movie - they were bad, and I mean like, super bad. The actors tried their best, but some lines cannot be delivered in a good way, not even if Meryl Streep would say them. Overall, the movie is totally okay. It is not art, it is not even a good movie in the pure meaning of the word. But it entertained me fairly, and if you look for a "brains out, amusement on" movie, this might be the one for you, especially if you like Werewolves or creature horror in general.There is even a pretty awesome female nudity scene - oh my gosh, was that chick hot. Uff.So, get it, guys, nothing wrong with "Little Dead Rotting Hood", maybe besides the stupid title. In general, I probably would not have taken the Red Riding Hood story as background, it was not needed. But however, again, nothing wrong with it.Have fun, and beware of the Denmother. Maybe keep your dog out of the room, the tons of animal noises might make him nervous ;)
riporeilly Simply put... I LIKED this movie. I'm SOOOOO not into horror movies but the action added in to the horror element makes this a very good watch. Not for children, but good story and kept me guessing... who lives? who dies? who's the "badguy?" Nice twist and well put together. Character development and acting definitely on par. Hope there will be a sequel because the possibilities for more development are surely in place, Comics? Novels? Maybe a video game? Nice use of blood and gore and guts (and sex) without taking it to the level of cheesiness. The kind of movie I wish I could produce myself. New word comes out of this... CREXY, ... crazy + sexy = crexy.
