Search - Red Hook on DVD

The DVD Cover is More Interesting than the Movie

"There's really no other way to sum it up, Red Hook is easily one of the least interesting horror movies I've seen in years. It's a scavenger hunt gone wrong, with a predictable ending. The writers attempt to misdirect the audience halfway through the movie to lead up to a twist ending, but they try a little too hard, making the conclusion obvious.

The film's production quality is poor, and the directing is below average. The cast does a decent job, as most were relatively experienced television actors. I have no idea why the word "unrated" was thrown on the cover, as the kill scenes will only make the average horror fan yawn. The only reason I gave the film two stars instead of one was because I enjoyed the movie's score.

I write this review with the understanding that anyone who worked on the movie will probably rate my review as "unhelpful", but I'm just being honest. I thought it was painfully boring, and I'd suggest that you at least rent it before buying the DVD."

So much better then the usual crappy horror that I have watc

"I thought this movie had a decent plot, and kept you interested in what was going to happen next. In the past few months I have seen the worst of Hollywood, and indies have to offer and I say this movie tried and succeeded in being interesting, keeping my attention, and did not have me yelling at my television demanding my money back!=o)"

Its not so bad

"By no means is this on my list of favorite horror movies, but it wasn't bad. It is fairly predictable but I didn't feel like it was a waste of time. The film quality is okay, the acting has some hits and misses, and there are a couple of good kills. The DVD cover is more menacing than the actual movie, but if you keep your expectations low, you might like this one."
