Wonderful character development!
... View MoreI am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
... View MoreAmazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
... View MoreBy the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
... View MoreI was pleasantly surprised by this film. While obviously on the lower side when it comes to budget, this movie has its feet firmly planted in the 80's. You could do much worse when watching on Amazon Prime for free..
... View MoreDEAD BODY is yet another indie horror/slasher set in the usual cabin in the woods, where a bunch of partying youths head off for some fun times. Derivative isn't the word. Their newest game goes awry and people begin to disappear, and it soon transpires that a maniac is on the loose. The only deadly thing about this film is the overuse of cliches and the annoying behaviour on the part of the chief characters.
... View MoreThe "Oh! It's you" 80s horror trope got annoying fast (SEE: mainly, Happy Birthday to Me,) but my horror-friend at work and I love to say it to each other all the time, followed by laughter.No spoiler, although...this movie begins with a version of that phrase and then dives right into a fun and funny weekend getaway beginning 12 hours earlier. Nothing original yet, but the party at this cabin in the woods felt real and I was totally invested in the characters. These actors truly portrayed old and new "friends."Then, as with the night, it gets dark and darker once the Movie's Title comes into play.One thing bad with streaming movies and me, I get distracted and distracted bad. In fact, I must've seen this incredibly short 80-minute movie 3-4x all the way through with starts, restarts, pausing, refreshing over a course of 3 days. And yet, when they explain the rules of Movie's Title (a scene I probably saw 4x) I still don't get it. Eh, it's just an excuse for the gang to avoid playing PlayStation 2 and wander around in the dark so Oh! It's You can hunt them down for real.I liked the movie despite the shift in tone from a fun and witty opening (which was better than the actual plot.) The ending might be laughable to some, but I gave it a pass. Or passes? Saw that a few times. And it was wildly predictable. So, when I said in the beginning "No spoiler, although..." in reference to the Oh! It's You killer, it totally gave it away to me. That wasn't much of a surprise, especially with their weak ways to red herring us. Still, it's genuine up front, brutal for horror fans following and yeah, I did like the ending. It certainly swayed from most of these kinds of movies. Definitely recommended.***Final thoughts: One of my distractions, in the opening, I thought this was going to be a horror-comedy. So, my mind wandered into making a top ten best horror-comedy list off the top of my head and without research. This movie wouldn't fall under it, since it never ended up being a comedy, and this list is irrelevant to this film...but since, I took the time to make it...Top Ten Best Horror-Comedies:10. Planet Terror 9. Bride of Chucky 8. Young Frankenstein 7. The Babysitter 6. Shaun of the Dead 5. Tucker & Dale vs. Evil 4. The Cabin in the Woods 3. The Final Girls 2. Scary Movie 1. Student Bodies
... View MoreThe only other review has this movie at a 1. It definitely does not deserve that. If you are a horror fan and/or a who done it fan you will probably like this. Is the acting Oscar winning? No...But does it keep your interest and have some decent gore? Yes...Besides a few dull moments this is a hidden gem on Amazon Prime. Check it out if you get the chance.
