This is How Movies Should Be Made
... View MoreBest movie ever!
... View MoreIt’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
... View MoreIt is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
... View MoreI was first introduced to this film at the Hollywood Dv festival. As the movie began I wasn't exactly sure what to expect. I mean at first impression it is a total guy flick with hot girls playing rock music in a band. However, as the movie progressed the plot takes some unexpected twists and turns and I started becoming way more invested in the characters themselves. It got to the point where I knew I had to finish the movie otherwise it would have haunted me not to have known what happened. The story keeps you hooked along with witty and cleaver dialogue throughout which even makes the film humorous at times. It is a film I would definitely see again!
... View MoreStump The Band has carved out an interesting niche for itself. The premise of "Stump" is frankly...rude, but the execution is either spot on creepy or tongue in cheek funny. I liked that the film inserted humor without being campy. It's almost as if the film makers wanted to produce a straight up scare fest but naturally stumbled upon some offbeat and wacky bits that wound up improving the whole package.The girrrrl band is great and the women are compelling. This would be a fun act to catch live although I don't recall the band's name. The guys flesh out mostly stock horror film characters but do it with an honest and natural flair. The bad guy is...good, a good bad guy, maybe even a great bad guy. His delivery is as if Hanibal Lecter got in touch with his feminine side. We want more!!! The only real downside is the special effects blood. It's a little brownish.On the other hand, much of the action takes place in broad daylight. The mayhem is easy to see.Stump The Band,... a slasher film with heart.
... View MoreThis movie is exactly what it tries to be: an over the top, tongue in cheek blood bath with a great original soundtrack and an abundance of sexy girls. From the very beginning, you'll be cheering and laughing at both the heroes and the villains while the blood sprays and the body count mounts. What do a raunchy, tough, all-girl punk band and a creepily calm foot fetishist with a huge collection of shoe boxes have in common? They both wield a mean ax! Don't watch this movie alone! You won't be scared, but the jokes and blood sprays are even better with a cheering crowd and flying popcorn, especially the rolling finale! Its definitely worth watching more than once, and it makes a great party movie! Extra tip: Dog Boy alone makes it a must see...
... View MoreThis film has a number of outstanding performances with the true delight being Larry Wyatt as the stumper(although the dog guy is pretty great, too). Beautifully underplayed and as frightening as any character I've ever seen in a horror flick. The tongue-in-cheek writing is first rate with plenty of chuckles to relieve the nervous anxiety that the darker aspects of the story line brings on. The she-rockers make a very believable band and work well together. Their back stories were very convincing. The ensemble was a perfect mix of conniving blood-suckers and thick-headed hangers-on, just what every band should have in their cotillion.I thoroughly enjoyed this film and I would highly recommend this instant classic to any fan of the horror genre!
