... View MoreKnowing nothing about this movie, i went into it with little to no expectations. The premise seemed interesting but as is the case with most independent horror films, i thought the production values would be low. I can say that this one was a very pleasant surprise! Yes, the movie has its silly moments, but what horror film doesn't? You have to make allowances for stupidity in a horror movie, and if you are prepared to do that here, then you are in for an entertaining ride! The storyline is very mysterious and captivating and gives a slightly unique Zombie approach with some emotion, not to mention the brutality will leave gore hounds rejoicing.With many bad low budget horror films going around, Perkins 14 is definitely a movie that will revive hope in a very disappointing world of horror!
... View MoreThis has got to be the strangest looking, least talented cast I've ever seen. They must have gotten every freaky looking goon with a Screen Actors Guild card to star in this thing and it was amateur hour to the extreme. The story isn't so bad to start out, a man who suffered a tragedy wants to get back at the people who didn't do anything to help him. He does this by kidnapping 14 of the towns children, and yes, his name was Perkins. This strange, evil, little man decided to drug these kids with PCP, until there brains are mush, and then he tortured them into become zombies, who would be unleashed if anything ever happened to him, and yes, something happens to him. From there, this film becomes one badly acted gorefest that makes no sense at all. Body parts fly, intestines come out and get consumed, and the town of Stone Cove becomes overrun. This whole thing was ridiculous and I can't believe it was chosen to be part of the After Dark Horrorfest. It's so badly directed and cast that it looks like some kids film class project, Perkins' 14 shouldn't be in a Horrorfest collection, it should be a joke on Mystery Science 3000.
... View MoreIn the resort town of Stone Cove, thirteen children are missing for more than ten years. One of them is Kyle, the beloved son of Sheriff Dwayne Hopper (Patrick O'Kane) that is obsessed to know what happened to him. When the pharmacist Ronald Perkins (Richard Brake) is arrested, Dwayne suspects that he might have abducted his son, and he asks his pal Hal (Dean Sansone) that is at home to go to Perkins' house to investigate. Hal goes to the basement and finds many cells, and accidentally he releases the creatures that are imprisoned. Hal is murdered and the creatures escape. Dwayne goes to the place with Perkins and discovers the fate of the missing children that are released on the streets of Stone Cove in a hellish night.The gore "Perkins'14" is a sort of combination of the disturbing and sick Travis Betz's "Joshua (2006)" with any zombie movie. The result is disappointing since the attitudes of the lead characters are stupid in many times. The funniest part is when Janine asks her husband if he is all right. The guy has just found that he is a cuckold; his teenage daughter is a slut; and his beloved son has been abused for ten years and has become a monster. Further he has just seen many dreadful deaths and they are trapped in a basement under siege of powerful zombie-like creatures. Couldn't the writer have a more appropriate line for that moment? The conclusion is so imbecile that ruins the promising parts if this flick. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): Not Available
... View MoreThis movie could have had potential if it had live up to the write up. The "hero" of the story seems to be a superman that can do all things, even figure out that a pharmacist in his jail is responsible for the the disappearance of his son. The major plot hole is all that is missing between the time the kids were taken and the time they were released. At an outward glance, it looks like they were all trapped in cages. If this is the case, where do they get their blood lust? There should have been more insight into what happened to the kids while they were in his custody and his motives should have been better explained. The 30 year old trying to play a young guitarist was ridiculous. The randomness of the whole movie left everything open. There should have been a lot more to the story explaining the 10 years in captivity and what the captor was trying to achieve. Mainly, we need to know if they were on a seek and destroy mission or if they were on a "kill the people that abandoned you" mission. The story itself could have been a good one if they had tried to make a proper story out of instead of a showing how well they do dismemberment effects. This was a very poorly thought out movie.
