Wet Hot American Summer (2001)
What a piece of ...
How can this many famous people be in here but it still sucks so bad. Not funny. One of the worst movies I have ever seen and would be a '1' if not for the ridiculous amount of star power. Bradley Cooper, Garofalo, Lo Truglia, Merloni, Paul Rudd, E. Banks, and the list goes on and on.
Maybe this was funnier humor in 2001, but in 2011 it is terrible all the way around. Now I know why it is currently playing on Netflix online which happens to be home to great documentaries and indie movies and then a whole library of truly terrible other movies.
Throw in one scene in a shed that is just way too graphic and you have a big steaming pile of ...
Bigfoot at Holler Creek Canyon (2006)
Performance focus
A quality horror piece that includes nice direction from Poague, a method-actor-in-the-making in Alvarez, and of course, the incomparable Ron Jeremy.
I was kind of surprised by the choice in female leads since they weren't the classic hottie-looking types. It looks like some of them have a history with the director though since one of his earlier pieces, "The Wickeds," seems to have had a number of the actors in it as well.
To be honest though, I was most impressed by the work turned in by Bigfoot. Very believable in the role, this Sasquatch has a long career ahead of him. (Looking at the cast list, it appears that two men were used in the role, but the bigger of the two guys was really the one that stole the show.)
Finally, any movie that has a Bean Snapper as one of the main characters automatically moves into my top 100 all-time horror list.
Personal Velocity: Three Portraits (2002)
I am crying...
...because this movie bored me to tears. I hope people don't think of the writer as another up-and-coming force in Hollywood, because she/he is not. This thing was a bunch of garbage shot in such a way as to make people think that it could work because it was so art house-y. I hated this movie. I hated the writing. And I feel sorry for these talented actresses since they obviously thought that this movie was going to be more interesting than it turned out to be.
