Hate Crime
Let's face it, The Blair Witch Project, pretty much created a new way to shoot movies. The realism of someone behind a camera chronicling horrific events, kinda works, and has for several motion pictures. The unfortunate thing, is that once something hits, then all of the copy catters come out in droves to cash in on the new hot thing. Fortunately, not all of the copy catter creations come out like shit, but there is still a fair amount that do. Hate Crime is one of the latest films to come out of this craze, and hopefully it won't suck.
Hate Crime is about a family which has just moved into a new home, and is celebrating their youngest sons birthday. Of course, they are filming the whole thing. Wouldn't you, if it were your kid? Well not long after the festivities commence, things go south, when a band of neo-nazi rapist's break in to the house to join the party. Who invited these guys? Not sure, but one thing I do know is that they are pissed off and they are ready to fuck things up. Sounds good, doesn't it? Unfortunately, my words are better than the movie.
The acting in this movie is horrible and comes off very non convincing. There are some entertaining and disturbing parts, but they are few and far between. Actually, the trailer made this one look awesome, but the end result was a major let down. The movie starts off interesting, but after a few minutes, I became bored and couldn't hit the FF button quick enough. Unfortunately, with this one, the premise was much better than the final product. It just drug on and on, to a point that I had to hit myself to stay awake. It is ashame I have to be so harsh, because I was expecting so much more. Unfortunately, all I was left with, was a full bottle of disappointment.
Bottom Line: Reallity style horror flick, that comes off totally unbelievable.
-Ragman is going to use this one for his new sleep aid. Time to throw the Quil, in the trash.
