Dreadfully Boring

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

This movie and these guys were just way too cute. It's truly worth the watch. They definitely added little touches which made this movie their own. On top of it all it was intelligent and tastefully done. They left nothing to the imagination. In the same fashion as South Park, Family Guy and the Simpson's, it was superb!!

I saw this movie at Ohio University. I couldn't believe how horrible it was. It was dreadful. Put it this way: it's no different than watching a bunch of high school boys get drunk and make fart jokes. Not funny, not scary, not good. Waste of time! Don't even bother with this mindless adolescent trash. If you really have a desire to watch high school students act like children, then just go to the mall. It's unbelievable that the producers of this movie didn't realize how horrible this is, unless they were children. This sets a poor example for young boys, and most importantly, it is a slap in the face to filmmakers who actually take their work seriously. For a better satire, go watch Monty Python, Mel Brooks, or David Zucker. "Coons" isn't satire, or parody. It's like being in the center of a really bad party. This is not a movie!

This movie is one of those surefire flicks to strike the humor cord amongst the generation X crowd. Extremely well done for the budget it was given, the screenplay and directing I thought was well above average. A select few characters make the film, such as the "Shane" character, whom acts as a gay park ranger, steals the show. I thought some of the development of the characters could have been better, though the film did not lack substance and kept the viewer wondering what kind of crazy, wild antics would happen next. A perfect rent for those who crave the "Scary Movie" type of genre- I hope these guys get together again in the near future to follow up Coons!

Coons! was probably the best thing about the 2006 Tartan Road Film Festival in Boca Raton. I just walked into the screening of this thinking it was going to be another annoying high school short film. While realizing that the high school films were an hour later, I decided to sit this one out. Every single person in this small screening was laughing at every other line in the movie, and the ridiculous raccoons just added to it. Hopefully this movie finds an audience with some good word of mouth, as it was hilarious, shot well, and acted perfectly for the type of movie it was. I didn't stay around for the awards, but it would be a huge mistake if this movie didn't win. Keep submitting this to more festivals guys.
