Truly Dreadful Film

Good start, but then it gets ruined

As Good As It Gets

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

The first scene of this movie is the best scene, and as soon as it's over the movie falls flat on its face and never gets up. Darrell Hammond and Dave Foley are the only things worth watching in this movie, and they are given almost nothing to do. At some point, the producers should have realized what was going on, thrown out the script, and let Hammond and Foley improv their own movie. Whatever they'd have come up with would have been miles better than the nerdfest that this film is.What is the problem? Well, for one thing, this is one of those "vampire" stories where the writers think they have to cleverly re-invent the vampire mythos for the hundredth time. And in this case, their re-invention is not at all clever, and is so contrived that the movie has to be narrated, so they can endlessly explain their idea of how the vampire thing works. It takes a lot away from the flow of the film. You'd like to see the story unfold, but the idiotic protagonist has to keep interrupting with dumb little explanations, of dumb ideas, accompanied by cartoons and dumb 50's music.If you don't like narrated movies, or sci-fi nerd movies, you won't have any patience for this kind of thing.The story is lame and dull. Only Darrell Hammond and Dave Foley are worth watching, even though Foley is tragically underused yet again. Amy Davidson plays a temp who follows movie logic and immediately hits on the nerd protagonist, again a nerd movie trope. In reality, hot young temps don't come on to whatever shlub showed them around on their first day. She also has one of the most embarrassingly stupid scenes in recent movie memory, where she has a little monologue about how much ventriloquists turn her on. I can't respect any actress who wasn't smart enough to turn down a part like this.Steve Burns as the protagonist is just in the way. A Simon Pegg wannabe.

saw this last at the 7th London Sci-Fi and Fantasy Festival. It was absolutely brilliant - good laughs in all the right places and not blindingly gory. The general understated tone makes it all that more enjoyable.The cast was also great - nobody so big it takes your eye off the ball but some familiar faces; Dave Foley from some episodes of 'Scrubs' and Jason Mewes from the 'Jay and Silent Bob' movies were both a pleasant surprise.Thank you to the creators! I've been waiting for a good 'vampire' movie since Coppola did his take on Dracula. I will be buying this on DVD and looking forward to watching other Ronalds/Dellis projects in the future.

Saw it at the Dallas Film Festival where the whole audience laughed their butts off. It was one of those movies I'll need to see twice to catch the jokes I missed. Lots of great visual humor, too. Jeeves the stuffed dog and the cripple poster were so tasteless but so funny. I probably didn't need to see that dude with the thong, but even that was hilarious. I loved Hammand and Burns, truly outstanding performances. Judd Nelson was good and nerdy. I agree with others who said Dave Foley was wasted in the part he played, but he was still very solid in a more dramatic part. And finally Mewes didn't just play Mewes. Amy Davidson is cute as a button as the new human employee. I didn't recognize Robert Wagner (with a beard as President Garfield) until he spoke. Then I knew.I really dug all the backstory parts explaining how the company came to be. I read a complaint here saying that the flashbacks looked like a power point project. Dude, it was SUPPOSED to be a power point project! You have to stick around until the end of the movie to discover why.I recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys a good laugh and can appreciate a great tasteless joke.Eye of the jackal, baby!

Most definitely the most hilarious Indie Comedy I've seen in quite awhile. The Ronalds Brothers have a very bright future ahead of them, but the future may be right now...Steve Burns, Amy Davidson, Judd Nelson, Dave Foley, Jason Mewes, Robert Wagner and Darrell Hammond all signed on for this picture. Big names and the brothers are moving on to their next project after this amazing first effort. I got to see their Arizona premiere at the Phoenix Film Festival, and I throughly enjoyed my time with Netherbeast Inc. What a great screening. Also during the Q&A I found the Ronalds Brothers so enjoyable.The back-story was complicated, but I thought it was some imaginative story telling with the whole power point presentation images. A group of office workers who just happen to be the walking undead, how can this not be funny? Steve Burns really does steal the show and his performance is flawless and Amy Davidson is just so darn cute in her role. They were the heart of the movie and they made the movie very, very enjoyable. Great job Ronalds Brothers I cannot wait to see your next project, PetRock. :) Also, Netherbeast has to be picked up for distribution. I cannot wait for the rest of you people to see this very funny film.
