PRIMITIVE SCREWHEADS

Friday Night Movies 642

Ant-Man was our first movie. It came out in 2015 but the work on the film started in 2006 with Edgar Wright writing the story with Joe Cornish. They wrote three scripts over 5 years. Not in a hurry, I guess. Casting didn't happen until 2013 and though Wright was slated to direct he left over creative differences. Peyton Reed came in to direct and Adam McKay and Paul Ruff re-wrote the script.

Paul Rudd is the second Ant-Man, he was created in a 1979 comic book story. He's called Scott Lang and the original Ant-Man is called Hank Pym. Hank is played by Michael Douglas. The movie starts in 1987 after Hank Pym gets kicked out of his company by Howard Stark and then it jumps to 2015 when Scott gets out of prison. Scott stole a bunch of money from a big corp and gave it back to the people the company cheated. Michael Pena is is Hank's prison buddy Luis, and the movie's comic relief machine, he picks Scott up when he gets released.

Scott tries to stay honest so he can get visitation rights to his little daughter but he gets fired from his job and has little hope of a good job because of his prison record. Hank Pym manipulates Scott and Luis into thinking Luis has discovered a big safe with untold riches. Hank trains Scott in the suit and they plan to take down David Cross. Hank had locked up the Any-Man suit as being too dangerous and refused to release the tech. Cross was Hank's assistant at one point and he had continued to work on the same tech. He's a ruthless prick who finally makes a break through. He immediately sells out to Hydra. He fights Ant-Man in his Yellow-Jacket suit at the end of the movie.

There's lots of jumping and leaping and punching. Sadly, there's plenty of Marvel melodrama too. Still, it was entertaining enough. I used to rush to buy the superhero movies when they came out on DVD but now I only pick them up when they're on clearance. I wouldn't need to see this anytime soon so I'll probably wait until I can get it for a couple of bucks. I see there's a sequel coming out next year. I'll let you know if I liked it in a couple of years.

Night Of The Cobra Woman is a 1972 Roger Corman production that I hadn't seen before. It was directed by Andrew Meyer, he wrote the screenplay after writing the story with Kerry Magness. It's a made in the Philippines film with some actors from the US and a lot of locals. The Wikipedia says that Roger was disappointed with the movie and thought the script lacked logic. The Wikipedia says the films Premise is: A beautiful woman turns into a cobra. I don't know what Roger's on about, you can't get much more logical than that.

Joy Bang plays a science student visiting the Philippines to study snakes and their venom. The guy is Roger Garrett, he plays Joy's boyfriend. Joy's a cutie with lots of teeth, she has little acting ability, Roger has less. Neither of them had much of a career. Back in the movie Joy hears a woman has a super rare cobra and she wants that venom. She travels to a nearby village to find the woman. They gets caught up in the life of the evil Snake Lady who has to kill to keep young and beautiful. She had been bitten by a special cobra in World War II and in 1972 she's still as young looking as she was then.

There's a bit of nudity, plenty of snakes, and some dull scenes with little happening. The effects are low budget and not too good. The scenery and sets are OK for the most part. While it has most of a horror movie in there, Roger was right to be disappointed, it just doesn't deliver much of a story. The story and the characters wonder about, practically bumping into stuff and occasionally falling down. It gets a 4 on the IMDb for good reason. I know we were complaining while it was on and it put two people to sleep for a bit. They were sad when they woke up, "it's not over yet?" There's not much reason to see it but I was glad to have the chance. Of course, I'm obsessed with seeing all these low budget horror flicks. I tell myself, it's good to know your horror film history, then I cry myself to sleep at night.

Our first feature is xXx: Return Of Xander Cage, it's third in the series. Vin Diesel played Xander Cage in the first movie back in 2002, he was dead in the 2005 sequel, so Ice-Cube took the lead. Now Vin is back from the grave to help out members of Samuel L Jackson's xXx Program at the NSA. It's got a script by F. Scott Frazier and it's directed by D J Caruso.

Someone has invented a magical box that can do amazing things like take control of a satellite and crash it anywhere they want on the Earth. It's stolen from CIA HQ by Donny Yen, Tony Jaa and their gang. CIA agent Toni Nicolette finds Xander and asks him to get the box back. He gets his gang of cartoon characters together and they go find Donny and Tony. There's plenty of exotic scenery as the team moves around the globe before ending in Detroit. The cast is filled with plenty of exotic and pretty women that can kick my ass three ways to Sunday. Between all the action stars and such there are oodles of punch ups. There's plenty of loud noises, plenty of things seem to blow up all the time, and flying about in cargo planes. There's a fairly good sense of humor but no real sense of physics. The script is fair to good. Some times the dialog made me roll my eyes. The film is fun enough but not as entertaining as the first film in the series. It's almost like it's a bit of parody.

Witchtrap is a 1989 horror film that's also known as The Presence. For some reason the new Blu-ray uses a print that has The Presence title on it. The movie is written and directed by Kevin S Tenney. He's directed a few minor horror and SF films, Night of The Demons, both Witchboard films and Arrival II are the ones I know about.

It's a story about some people hired to investigate a haunting at a Bed and Breakfast place that used to belong to a stage magician. It's said he was a wizard and he died preforming a ritual that would give him immortality. It didn't work. He's a ghost now. Everyone's favorite scream queen Linnea Quigley plays the camera person in the team hired to find and exorcise the ghost. The rest of the actors weren't familiar to me at all. There's a couple of psychics and some security people. None of them are prepared for the ferocity of the ghost and they're easily tricked and killed. Poor Linnea gets it in the shower pretty early on.

The story is pretty straight forward but the dialog is often kind of weak. The effects are better than the cast but not always. It's a mixed bag, kind of typical really for a low budget film. Sadly we won't know how much better the cast might have been, in the Linnea interview on the Blu-ray she says that all the sound was ruined and the whole movie had be be dubbed in later. We had commented on the sound as were watching the movie. It's not so awful that you can't watch the film. In all I thought it was about average, a bit of gore, a few scares, a few laughs, and a few fans who gave it a 4.7 on the IMDb. That's not too far off for me, I'd give it a 5 because it's not really a 6, or a 4. You might like it, you can find out on YouTube.

Wolfcop is a 2014 Canadian horror comedy about some secret doin's in a small town. It's filmed in and around Regina Saskatchewan but it's set in the US. It's written and directed by Lowell Dean. He'd done a few movies and some TV. This is his 3rd movie, the first was a series of stories set in Regina and the second was a horror movie that I put on my Netflix queue. We'll see when it turns up. Last year Lowell filmed a second Wolfcop film, called Another Wolfcop, but it's not been released yet.

That's Jonathan Terry on the left and Leo Fafard on the right, Leo is the wolfcop from the title. Jonathan is called Willie Higgins in the movie and he's a bit of weirdo, with a reptilian secret. Leo's name in Wolfcop is Lou Garou and he's a good solid drunk, often late to work, does little when there, his boss yells at him a lot. Leo has as many credits for Camera and Electrical Department on the IMDb as he does acting credits. Interestingly Leo plays a werewolf in his next movie, Corner Gas: The Movie, which I have seen and enjoyed. It's only a brief fantasy scene at the beginning of the movie. He is wearing a different werewolf costume.

When Lou turns into a werewolf one night it's Willie that knocks him out and puts him into a cell. He seems to take the werewolf thing in stride. The rest of the town is wondering about the multiple murders in the town. There's a fair bit of gore and violence in the movie. Things get smashed and people get tore up.

Leo and Willie plan to lock Wolfcop up in a cell the next night but things take a different turn as the secret society takes hold of the wheel of life. The body count mounts and Leo finds himself in such a predicament. He's got to get out of this one or he's sacrificial toast. Luck for him he gets help from his co-worker Tina, played by Amy Matysio. That's her up above. Tina's father died mysteriously 22 years back, the same night that Leo's father died mysteriously. The fathers were both killed by the evil society in the town.

The movie's short, only 79 minutes, but they pack it full of horror comedy goodness. It's got a good script and the characters are fairly interesting for a horror movie. They aren't all totally unlikable. I thought it was well worth seeing, we all enjoyed it, and I'd want to add it to my collection someday. It's really one of those little gems that only come along every so often.

I'm not quite as chuffed about Wishmaster 2; Evil Never Dies but it was still quite entertaining. I did pick up the 4 movie series on Blu-Ray after seeing the first movie last week. I probably should have waited a bit, maybe the price would fall a bit, but there are a wealth of extras on the discs and the movies look great so far. I'll want to watch these again sometime. The 1999 sequel to Wishmaster went to video and it's the work of writer director Jack Sholder. I think his best bit of work is the 1987 SF Horror film The Hidden with Kyle MacLachlan, Claudia Christian, Michael Nouri, Ed Ross, Clu Gulager and Chris Mulkey.

Wishmaster 2 takes off with a violent robbery, guards and thieves are shooting it up in a museum, the statue of Ahura Mazda is shattered. The so called fire opal, with the djinn inside, is released and so is the djinn. Andrew Divoff returns as the djinn. He's great and one of the reasons the first two movies in the series are so entertaining. He's got a creepy smile, a peculiar way of talking, and he never blinks when he's onscreen.

Holly Fields plays the woman who wakens the djinn. Once he collects his 1001 souls he'll offer her 3 wishes, once those are in the bag our djinn guy will open the gateway to his world and unleash the hordes of djinns. That would end the world as we know it. Now it's up to Holy to save the world and her own bacon. There's plenty of mayhem and wacky deaths as the djinn collects his souls. It might not mean to be a comedy but there are some funny bits and pieces mixed in with the general carnage. I got several laughs and others seems pleased at the script too. I sure that the series isn't for everyone but the horror fans should have a laugh or two.

Wishmaster is a 1997 horror film about a naughty djinn. I had thought I'd seen it before but my Watched Movie List say no. It's directed by Robert Kurtzman and produced by Wes Craven. Wes everyone knows from the movies he's done and Robert is perhaps better known as an effects guy. He started KNB with Howard Berger and Greg Nicotero back in 1988 and left the company in 2002. He makeup credits on 103 films, special effects credits on 51 films and he's directed 5 films, including Wishmaster. I've seen The Rage and The Demolitionist but not Deadly Impact or Buried Alive.

That Robert Englund and Andrew Divoff, Robert plays an art collector interested in religious relics and Andrew is a djinn in human form. Djinns in the movie aren't the fairy tale genies of yore. If a human wishes something, the djinn has to grant the wish. Unfortunately for the human, the wish doesn't have to be delivered in a beneficial way. Death, in many forms, is heaped upon the unsuspecting victim.

Tammy Lauren is the gal that holds the key to putting the genie back in the bottle. That a metaphorical bottle, it's really a jewel in a statue that holds the beast at bay. She yells constantly but she's got enough brains to trick the djinn. At least until the sequel comes out. There were 3 sequels after the first movie.

The movie is fun, in a gory tricky demony kind of way, and the deaths are gooey, bloody and nasty. The movie has a nice sense of humor and we laughed a good bit. There are lots of interesting guests in the movie, several really fun cameos, and some of the characters are named after horror writers. I thought it was well worth seeing and today I ordered the Blu-ray set of the four movies. I'll want to see these movie again someday. I'll take a chance on the rest.

A Fantastic Fear of Everything is a 2012 movie with Simon Pegg. It's a wacky comedy with Simon as a writer who's driven himself crazy researching Victorian Serial killers. It's the first feature film for co-directors Crispian Mills and Chris Hopewell. Crispian wrote the screenplay.

Simon has turned paranoid, he believes a serial killer is out there, waiting to murder him. He's taken to carrying a big kitchen knife around with him. At one point he can't get his hand to release it. He's got an opportunity to talk to a producer and his trying to get some clean underpants leads to him being caught by a serial killer.

Parts of Simon's deep rooted problem is his abandonment as a child. It happened in the very same laundromat that he brought his y-fronts to tonight. Simon's trip to the laundry turns out to be a benefit in several ways. He gets over his fear and finds a lady friend. For such possible dark bleak subject matter the movie is a good bit of fun. I'd recommend it, it made me laugh, a fair bit. You might like it.

The Velvet Vampire is a 1971 movie about a vampire living out in the California desert. Stephanie Rothman is the director, she's also co-wrote the script with her producer hubby Charles S Swartz and Maurice Jules.

Sherry DeBoer and Michael Blodgett are driving in the desert when their car breaks down. They get picked up by a woman in a dune buggy. She takes them to her big old house and says she'll get a mechanic for their car. She secretly spies on the couple from a giant mirror in their bedroom. The car takes a long time to get fixed and the couple start having issues. Things don't so so well for Michael and Sherry runs off into the desert. Miss Vampire chases after and nearly catches Sherry at the bus station. Sherry rallies some help and manages to survive, only to fall into another vamp trap.

The weak thing about the movie was the script. It was really uneven. There's plenty of nudity and it's a bit weird at times but I didn't care much for any of the characters. Not that that's unusual with a horror movie. You can check it out on YouTube and see if you might want to purchase a copy. I'd pick on up for cheap if I see one but I'm betting I'm not.

Journey To The West: The Demons Strike Back is the 2017 sequel to the 2013 Journey To The West: Conquering Demons. It's based on a massive novel called Journey To The West by Wu Cheng'en. The first film was produced, written and directed by Stephen Chow. He produces and writes the sequel but it's Tsui Hark who's the director.

The story opens with a dream in the Monk's head. He wakes up and we find he's sleeping in the rough and traveling with a poor circus. The Monkey King, Sandy and Piggy are still traveling with the Monk. Their performance doesn't go so well and a town nearly gets destroyed. The bunch keep running into demons as they make their way around the countryside. They battle the demons and work their personal issues out at the same time. There's plenty of action and the film is packed with CGI from beginning to end. There are some fun characters, big action scenes, lots of slapstick, and plenty of jokes. It's quite visually stunning and very noisy.

I enjoyed it quite a bit and will be picking up a copy when the price drops a bit. I waited and picked up a copy of the first one for about 4 bucks. Stephen Chow made a pair of earlier Monkey King films that were also entertaining. He played the Monkey King and that was a big part of the enjoyment. There was a third sequel to the older films but there's no Stephen Chow involved with that production. I have not seen it.

Friday Night Movies 637

The LEGO Batman Movie was our first pick. It was fun, lots of noise and action, with a bit too much yakkin' at times. I didn't think it was as good as The LEGO Movie from a few years ago but I laughed and had a good time anyway. I bought the Blu-ray at Target and got a cute Batgirl Minifig as a premium. The voice cast was good for the most part and the animation is busy and bright. There are plenty of in-jokes and little sight gags. The story is about the relationship between Batman and the Joker. It got a bit melodramatic and I thought it could have been trimmed out. I'd still watch it again some time. I'm not much interested in the Batman LEGO sets out for the movie, too many vehicles, but I did buy the Batman Minifigure set.

Enter The Warriors Gate is a 2016 French Chinese movie that was co-written by Luc Besson. Luc's co-writer was Robert Mark Kamen who wrote the Karate Kid series, the Transporter series, the Taken series and The Fifth Element. It's directed by Matthias Hoene who's previous movie was Cockneys Vs Zombies. It's a pretty much by the numbers action comedy with a young American teen thrown into an imaginary China of 2-300 years ago. It's mix of martial arts, magic and video games. The fights were better than the comedy. There are some cringe worthy jokes. We got through it and no one thought they needed to go buy a copy.

Friday Night Movies 636

Psycho Cop Returns is a 1993 Adam Rifkin movie, he directed it under the name Rif Coogan. Rifkin has directed 17 movies since 1989 and some TV. He's still making movies. His first two movies, Never On Tuesday and Tales Of Two Sisters, both stared Claudia Christian before she was on Babylon 5. He followed that with Invisible Maniac (directed under Rif Coogan), The Dark Backwards and The Nutt House. TDB is my favorite of his movies and one of my all time favorites. It's a nice step off the beaten path and not much like anything else. I've managed to not see the last bunch of his movies but I have a couple coming from Netflix.

Dan Povenmire is the writer, you might know his work from Phineas And Ferb, Sponger SquarePants and Rocko's Modern Life. He's also a storyboard artist who first got a storyboard job working for Adam Rifkin on Never On Tuesday. He was also the storyboard artist on Rifkin's The Dark Backwards.

I hadn't seen this before. According to Sperhauk it's the first time the movie has been on DVD or Blu-ray. There had been a VHS tape but I've never seen it. Some guys hold a stag party at their office after hours. Earlier in the day two of them had been in a diner and the loud mouth extra stupid guy mentions that the other one is responsible for getting pot for the party. Right next to them in the diner is the cop from the title of the movie. They don't know it yet but he's going to be the death of them. The cop is some sort of Satan worshiper with supernatural powers.

The cop follows the guys to their job and later observes extra stupid guy pay off the night guard to let him bring some party girls into the building. B-actress Julie Strain is one of the party girls. I wouldn't want to party with her, especially if she was naked. Soon the laughing policeman, gleefully quipping, starts picking them off one by one. It's got a nice sense of humor, some grisly content and a few naked ladies. It's fun and moves along fairly well. The people are pretty stupid and that doesn't help their chances of survival against an undead copper.

Raw Force is out in a nice Blu-ray from Vinegar Syndrome and we watched that. It's a 1982 American Philippine movie with Cameron Mitchell. It's written and directed by Edward D Murphy and it's the first of his two films. He's also an actor who's been in a few movies and shorts. He later became a lawyer, he mentions it in an interview in the Extras.

Cameron's the Captain of a boat in the Philippines. It's owned by an annoying woman called Hazel, played by Hope Holiday, who was Cameron Mitchell girlfriend at the time. She dated Jonathan Winters before Cameron and there was a time when Jonathan was going to be in the movie. He isn't.

Cameron is about ready to pack it in because she doesn't take care of the maintenance and the boat is falling apart. They spend much of the movie yelling at each other. She's got an idea to make more money by offering tours to a sacred island inhabited by some monks. Veteran Philippines actor Vic Diaz plays the head monk. He's in lots of low budget movies shot there. The local Police Chief is a crook who's trading the monks women for jade. The monks BBQ the women and use their cooked flesh to raise the dead.

That's some of the ashy dead up above. The island's graveyard is home to failed martial artists who came there to die. The Chief plans to wipe out the boat in order to keep his secret jade business going. He sends his minions to attack the boat and they light it on fire. That leaves a few of the passengers and crew alive, they manage to float to the island in a raft.

They have to fight the baddies and the monks to stay alive. They don't all make it. There's some kung fu action, some jokes, plenty of topless ladies and a lot of jungle scenery. It's a little better than average and it's fun to watch and I'm betting, fun to re-watch.

Friday Night Movies 635

Spy is Paul Feig's third movie with Melissa McCarthy, the first was Bridesmaids in 2011, that was followed by The Heat in 2013. I haven't seen either of the movies yet. I'm only somewhat a Melissa McCarthy fan, I'm more a Feig fan. I saw him first as an actor, then he started directing in 1997. I remember him fondly from his 1990 appearance on It's Garry Shandling's Show playing Garry's new wife's brother. He played one of the writers on The Jackie Thomas Show. That was a funny show that never made it to DVD. In 1999 he created Freaks And Geeks, he also wrote 6 of the episodes. He wrote the screenplay to the recent Ghostbusters reboot.

Melissa plays a spy handler, she sits behind the desk and feeds Intel to the spy in the field. Jude Law plays the spy she handles. She's fallen in love with him but he's not interested. When he's killed she goes into the field to observe and report. She's not supposed to get any deeper. Of course she does. Luckily for Melissa, she was trained to be a spy but she went nuts on the test course and wound up behind a desk.

Besides Melissa and Jude, the cast has Jason Statham, Miranda Hart, Jessica Chaffin, Katie Dippold, Rose Byrne, Peter Serafinowicz, 50 Cent and Allison Janney. They have a great script, so it's a pleasure to watch these cats work. Keep an eye out for the writer director as a drunken guy in Paris. I missed him myself.

There's plenty of spy activity and globe trotting. The film was filmed in Budapest which filled in for Washington, London, Paris and everywhere in between. There's plenty of action and jokes. Lots of jokes. There was lots of laughing. We all like a good joke. I'll have to keep an eye out for a copy, I'd want to watch this again.

Sperhauk picked up a Blu-ray of Zombie Diaries 2 for a couple of bucks and he's sorry he did. If you see this movie don't buy it. It's a found footage slog through that is boring at best and coma inducing at worst. I'm kidding, probably no one has fallen into a coma. I'd bet they would have had a stroke first. We had watched the first movie in the series and it was pretty poor too. Nice to know there's a couple movies I don't want to buy.

Friday Night Movies 634

Up first is a Japanese film that hasn't ever been released in the US before. Wolf Guy: Enraged Lycanthrope is a 1975 Sonny Chiba film that I read might have been lost for years. It's out in a nice Blu-ray now and we watched that. It looks good but to be all honest it's a bit weak., story wise. The movie is based on a Manga and there are a couple of Wolf Guy OVA's on YouTube.

This movie is directed by Kazuhiko Yamaguchi. He directed Sonny in Sister Street Fighter the year before. I'd seen that and thought it was OK. I'd also seen his film Wandering Ginza Butterfly, and it's sequel, and enjoyed those.

Sonny's the last of his clan of werewolves. Sadly he never turns into a werewolf but he does nearly have a uni-brow. He's a reporter. After he's found at the scene of a grisly murder the police take him in for questioning. They don't believe he could have done the slashing in the time he had and they let him go. More strange murders happen, this time we see that there isn't anyone, or thing, cutting up the men. It's some sort of supernatural force at work. Eventually we find out that it's an abused woman who's behind this, she has been done over by some crooks and this is her revenge. There's a some weird stuff going on, a bit of action here and there, but sadly the script is weak and there is also some dead time scattered through out the film. The middle act seems to drag the worst. The big fight scene at the end doesn't deliver much for all the noise and fury. The whole movie is kind of that way. I kind of understand the mixed feelings about the movie in other reviews and IMDb comments. It certainly doesn't deserve the 7 it scores on the IMDb. I gave it a 6 and I was being generous considering that they made a werewolf movie without anyone turning into a werewolf. It's not really much better than average. Sonny was OK and so was the cast but they just didn't have that good a script to work with. I'd only recommend it to the Sonny fan who wanted to see all his movies.

I'd recommend the 2017 movie Death Race 2050 to all the fans of the original but I have a feeling that a lot of them wouldn't like it much. When I look on the IMDb a lot of people voted, 2566 of them, and 27% gave it a one. It's definitely not that, I gave it a 6 and I wasn't being really generous. I think there's plenty of fun in this remake of the 1975 Paul Bartel film but it just isn't quite up to the original. Director GJ Echternkamp is co-script writer with Matt Yamashita. Neither has worked a lot on feature films. I read people are calling this as a sequel to the original. I don't get sequel from it, the story and action is just like the original. Both end with Frankenstein taking out the leader. Who makes this crap up?

The production looks alright and there's plenty of fun characters. The cars aren't as entertaining but they do bounce around like the original cars did. Mostly they were Dune Buggies that didn't have much weight even dressed up for action. There's plenty of driving around and cars chasing each other. There are some jokes and goofy things in the script. I got a few laughs out of that.

The resistance to the current lack of government has a plan to disrupt the big race. Malcolm McDowell is the Chairman of The United Corporations of America and he's got it in his head that Frankenstein should die and Jed Perfectus should be the new race champion. Neither force can defeat our anti-hero Frankenstein, played by Manu Bennett, as he plows on to the finish. When it was done I didn't feel I'd wasted my time and while I wouldn't recommend it to everyone it was fun to watch.

The Void is a 2016 Canadian production that looks great for a movie that costs slightly less than $150,000. It's written and directed by Steven Kostanski and Jeremy Gillespie. The guys are part of the Astron-6 Production Company. We'd watched 2 or 3 of their films at movie night in the past. You might have seen Manborg, Father's Day or The Editor.

The movie is a somewhat Lovecraftian type story. A cop drops off an injured man to a hospital that's in the last days of being open after a big fire. There's only a couple of patient's waiting to be moved. While the action unfolds in the hospital a group of figures in white robes arrives and attacks. The siege at the hospital turns out to be caused by of one of the doctors there. He's got some other world action in mind. He must be fairly powerful, he rises from the dead to continue on with his plan.

The doc wants to open a portal, evil, new world, monsters, blah. blah. It was a fairly good production, a little gory when the surgery stuff is going on. There's a good script, that works even though you might feel you've seen some of the story before.

Bad Milo is a fun comedy horror film about a guy who has a creature living in his digestive system. It's got a nice mix of laughs, violence and goo. It came out back in 2013 and it was written by Benjamin Hayes and director Jacob Vaughn. Vaughn had directed another movie back in 2009. The movie has Ken Marino in the hot seat with that demon thing up his ass. Other cast members that I know are Mary Kay Place, Patrick Warburton, Stephen Root, Peter Stormare and Toby Huss.

When the stress in Ken's life gets great Milo comes out to murder the person causing the most stress. First it's Ken's co-worker. He was a pretty fuckin' stupid guy but he didn't deserve to die. Peter is a therapist that Ken gets some help from. Peter is well up on bottom demon knowledge. He explains it's the physical manifestation of the stress. Peter says Ken has get Milo out and bond with him. Milo keeps on killing until Ken gets him calmed down.

Most the victims were dicks. No one will miss the evil boss that Patrick played. Luckily for Ken the news media thinks it's a racoon doing the killing. Once more a movie helps to remind me of the dangers of forest critters. And demons. Especially ass demons. Ken can't kill his ass demon without loosing something of himself so he has to make up with it and keep his anxiety down to keep the demon inside. It all made me laugh and I was glad to have seen it. I might pick up the DVD when it gets cheap enough. I'd certainly watch it again.
