hellholehorror This is far from original. It is a pathetic horror. It seemed obvious that they saved their entire budget for the ridiculous, over-the-top, ludicrous ending. If the whole film was like the ending then it would have been very good. The gore wasn't even that gross. There was no depth or atmosphere. A lacklustre effort. The overblown and fun ending barely improves a terrible attempt at a horror movie.
Python Hyena See No Evil (2006): Dir: Gregory Dark / Cast: Glenn Jacobs, Samantha Noble, Michael J. Pagan, Christina Vidal, Luke Pegler: Disgusting horror film about a killer who plucks the eyes out of his victims. It is also another failed attempt to bring a wrestler into feature films. If you thought that Hulk Hogan starred in stupid films then you're in for a real treat when Kane hunts down and murders petty criminals in a huge rundown hotel. Why the hotel is still standing is a question left unanswered but in reality it would be classified as a hazard, much like this film. And why are production values about as enticing as a cardboard box? Perhaps every dime went into training Kane how to act like...HIS WRESTLING PERSONA! Who would have thought, huh? Kane, whose real name is Glen Jacobs, is a menacing wrestling personality but that is about as far as it should go. Director Gregory Dark films everything as if he is half asleep. Kane beats the hell out of Samantha Noble, Michael J. Pagan, Christina Vidal, etc. They are not nearly as energetic as his wrestling opponents but one can say that wrestling puts on a more realistic show than the travesty given here. Why not just pay for a ninety minute battle royal where Kane just heaves the people responsible for this film over the top rope? There is no point to this wasted piece of junk other than to bring Kane to the screen and hopefully be seen by no one. Score: 1 / 10
Christopher Barker See No Evil is definitely one of the best films WWE studios has ever produced. It brought back the classic slasher genre and the style of many great franchises such as Halloween, Friday The 13th etc. I don't see anything wrong with it, for what it is, it is a very solid film. I love Kane in and out of the ring. And he play a very good, creepy psychopath. Gregory Dark created what could be a new beloved killer in Jacob Goodnight. The film is fast paced, not too long. The gore is fine, not OTT like most films. The acting is perfectly fine, the characters are well written. The film is just really good altogether. The fact that they took the idea of Psycho and made Jacob's mom the real villain, and Jacob as a so called "instrument" of death, was very inventive. I enjoy this film. It is entertaining. It was cool to see WWE Studios produce a horror film, and the film, in my eyes, is one of the better slasher movies that has been made. 10 out of 10. Very good.
Joe Nelson (jnelso19) One personal belief someone should have when writing critiques is the belief that every film has potential, no matter how stupid it sounds or looks. Doesn't mean we should make the effort to see every film we hear about, but if we can't get away from the film, at least watch it with an open mind. So when I saw this movie when I was in middle school, I at least expected a decent story to go along with the Saw VII esque violence. When I left the theater, I was a little bit disappointed. The violence was in good loads but nothing too crazy, but the screenplay was awful. They got into the victims stories well and the bad guy even got a word in edge wise in regards to his past. The problem is that you don't even know his name and if you didn't do research before seeing this film you wouldn't have even known his name until the end credits. Even for a horror movie that's pretty low. Another low was the acting, the majority of the characters were poorly acted, it was either that or the script, it's probably the script. In the end you get a below average movie that WWE Studios churns out about as often as Apple releases a new iPhone.
