gpailkids Really, some people take themselves waaaaaaaaay to seriously. Relax, its just a movie....why get so angry? Its a indie low budget movie, so if you only like high production Hollywood type movies then don't watch it. It's also Comedy/Horror...that a silly and immature genre of movie anyway.....so what did you expect? Anyway....I for one loved this movie, I watched it twice actually. Thought it was funny and silly and entertaining. You can tell it was made by people who just love movies. But if you have a stick permanently inserted in your ass, don't watch it, cause it wont be your cup of tea.

CorblimeyGuvnors A reporter sets out to find a five legged, two headed goat and arrives in the town of Nilbog. The town is infested with all manner of monsters. From Zombies through to Vampires. Joh Johnson has quite an an impressive IMDb list of credits and to be continually working is a commendable thing.I feel a bit guilty about not really liking this film. Judging by the reviews on here you really either love it or hate it. I would not go as far as saying I hated this. I just found it a bit juvenile and some of the characters really grated on me. The concept is cool and starts off with a man watching the film in his bathroom. It then jumps back to him on numerous occasions and he passes comments on the action unfolding. Now if he had spoken in a normal voice (or really any other voice than the one used) this would have been fine, but he speaks his lines in a high pitched sequel. This seems to be a problem with a lot of the characters through out the film. There is also the Asian man who does not speak English, and he really just sounds like he is talking gibberish. Apparently the script was totally improvised. Some of the physical special effects were good, but this was counterbalanced by some poor visual effects. Acting generally was poor. There are appearances from Debbie Rochon and Brinkie Stevens, two well established scream queens. They are only briefly seen and Debbie has a slightly bigger part than Brinkie, who only really has a cameo. The best thing about this was the music and there was a rock track that sounded very much like the Phantasm main title. Cool !!Not a total waste as there were the odd scene that made me smile and keep my attention. Especially the Grease homage when the lead actor started to sing to a girl called Sandy!!!!!There is even a couple of sequel's. Skeleton key 2: 667 the neighbour of the beast in 2008 and Skeleton key 3: The organ trail, made in 2011. So their must be a fan base out there somewhere.

Steve Miller "Skeleton Key" is a very funny movie. The people who squeezed the scripts for "Disaster Movie" and "An Amercian Carol" from their colons should watch before they try their hands at comedy again. Maybe they could learn a thing or two.While I don't make excuses for indie films when it comes to technical incompetence--"White Zombie" was an indie film, "A Carnival of Souls" was an indie film, "Night Tide" was an indie film, "A Bucket of Blood" was an indie film, just to name a few of the thousands of excellent indie films that have been made since the arrival of sound in films--there's no point in knocking "Skeleton Key" for bad sound, lighting, or photography. Hell, doing that is missing one of the jokes, I think.This is a spoof of horror films along the lines of "Disaster Movie" and "An American Carol." More to the point, it's a spoof of low-budget, indie horror films. It embraces it's cheapness and wears it like a badge of honor. In fact, based on other John Johnson films I've seen--like "Alucard"--I think some of the "incompetence" here is intentional."Skeleton Key" may not be a masterpiece, but it's also not as bad as some posters attempt t portray it. And it's far better than a number of recent Hollywood attempts at making movies along this line.

Francis ***SPOILER ALERT*** This movie sucks scrotum... cause I can't say B*LLSMay I just say that I have seen not only one, but TWO separate versions of this film... and I don't even know these people. As a supporter of poorly made films and people that live within a 100 mile radius of me, I feel it only appropriate to see what's going on in the community. This movie makes me feel like I should be doing something in the film making business. That first comment was pretty spot on, though i must admit the main villain in the movie is played well by... whomever the fk he was. Also, the villain I am talking about is the scientist that sings about man-bags. This movie had too many damn villains, but no real plot. I think that was the problem. Also, I don't care if Matt Damon or Ben Affleck were in this or not, that plot could not have been worse if J.J. Abrams had produced it.Now with all the insults that I have said, may I just say that I love movies that come from fecal matter. So if you are into movies that are less creative than George Lucas then this is right up your alley.
