Highly Overrated But Still Good

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

I've read the other comment referring to Snoop Doggs'horror film, Bones....When this first came out it was my favourite horror film but I watched it that many times that it lost its' lustre.The effects are great and plenty of blood and some gore from the outset. The beginning sets the tone for the rest of the film as it's one of those films that you just NEED to get to the bottom of why it is happening and what actually took place to cause it. It all unfolds at a pace enough to keep your interest as a viewer. This film is still a very watchable and enjoyable film in my opinion, even today. It was nice to see Snoop in something different and anyone that is a Snoop Fan will enjoy this film all the more.....7 out of 10.

All in all i thought this movie was hilarious. Yes the story line was good, but the movie itself sucked. The actors didn't do a god job & the special effects were awful.However, I found this movie really funny. The movie is so poorly done that what was meant to be a horror flick had become a comedy(maybe not laugh out loud, but still funny). In one scene, the characters find blood, which is clearly neon-red paint(hence the bad special effects). I do think that Sean Amsting(the gangsta of love) did a good job. Though he did add to the comical part of the movie.So, the movie sucks so much that i found it funny. I watch it every time i need a good laugh, you should too.

Wow! i just caught this movie on a TV channel. This is absolutely an unmeant masterpiece! The story is as useless as it should be in a decent horror film. In the late 70's Mr Bones does not want to be a dealer, gets killed and goes get revenge 20 years later (for reasons still unknown to men). Ironically the house he is killed in is sold to the kids of one the guys that kills him. He regenerates from having a dog kill people and eat crap and then goes to get revenge on his killers. so far so good, it sounds as a crap horror movie should be.But having Mr Snoop Dogg playing a pimp in the 70's (in flashback scenes) and a murdering pimp in the 90's is so ridiculously cool it hurts. Even though the whole movie doesn't make ANY sense at any point, it's just cool to see Mr Dogg in a pimp outfit. Also the pun of having two token white kids getting killed in the first minute, the cheesy red colour of the blood, the totally unfitting comic relief of 2 talking heads and all skanky girls in the movie being played by white chicks makes this an absolutely excellent movie! I admit, i have a taste for bad movies. Horrible sci-fi and 80's action movies are a must-see in my opinion, it's cheap laughs! this movie is fitting for that so amazingly i'm getting the DVD tomorrow and organizing a 'movie nite' next week to show this (together with 'Alien Sex Party') to some friends. Hilarity guaranteed! So, get a case of beer, some illegal, mind altering substances and a few good buddies that can appreciate bad movies and have a blast with this Snoop Dogg gem! Oh, and the probably totally unmeant Fatboy Slim homage was the cherry on the cake. A DJ kid wearing sunglasses and a cowboy hat (as does Mr Slim in the 'Rockafeller Skank' video) asks another DJ 'can you do a solo performance, i need some time off right about now, funk soul brother'. Comedy gold, right there.

Snoop Dogg showed that his success as an on-stage performer is no fluke. He has presence and skill, and is a very believable hero-turned-villain in this film. I definitely recommend the film.I would have liked to see more development of Pam Grier's character. Grier can definitely carry a film, and this one needed carrying at times. Some of the scenes are more gruesome than I prefer, and could have benefited from more work on the script and less on the special (gruesome) effects.The flashback scenes put Snoop Dogg in his true element - the funky 1970s. Those alone make the film worth watching.Altogether, this is an above-average film that will keep the attention of most people. You'll find yourself cheering for old Bones as he looks for his next victim.
