DAY 7
FILM - Jack Brooks : Monster Slayer
PREMISE - As a child Jack Brooks witnessed the brutal murder of his family. Now a young man he struggles with a pestering girlfriend, therapy sessions that resolve nothing, and night classes that barely hold his interest. After unleashing an ancient curse, Jack's Professor undergoes a transformation into something not-quite- human, and Jack is forced to confront some old demons... along with a few new ones.
ANTAGONIST - Some pretty impressive monsters run around this film. It is all practical effects. No CGI monsters in this. The main demon has a Jabba the Hutt quality and it was done very well.
BLOOD AND GORE - Lots of blood and gross looking creatures
SCARES - Not at all. Very tounge in cheek
REVIEW - This film looked like it was a lot of fun to make. I had a lot of fun watching it. Trevor Matthews and Robert Englund brought spark to the cheesy dialoge. The make up effects and the films score were exceptionaly good. My only major issue is that it took almost an hour of the film to find it's footing and really get entertaining. Other than that for, a low budget horror this was a well made good time horror film that sets up a sequel which I think will be even better since the set up is in place. Bring on Jack Brooks : Monster Slayer 2. I give this a very high 7 out of 10.

This seems like it would have made a fun rundown.
