2009 Horror Fest: Fetus: 20 Out Of 100 Stars

Really had no idea how to rate this movie cause there's just so much awesomely horrible and horribly horrible stuff happening almost simultaneously throughout the whole thing.

Pure gore movie that would serve better as a reel for a fledgling effects company than an actual film.

Let's see, we start with a scene of a woman giving birth and miscarrying and then the mother dies during delivery. Right away it's super gory and sick and we also get a glimpse of the level of "acting" we're gonna see in the film.

So the distraught dad comes home and emotes some before going out and getting a book about spells at which point the movie kicks into high gear and he starts murdering the doctors in the most vile and insidious ways. The gore looks really good but in the context and with the lead actors acting it just comes across as frighteningly silly instead of frightening.

From there the movie starts to make less and less sense as there is almost no dialog and what dialog there is is barely audible. Instead we get constant shitty scary music and lots and lots and lots and lots of disgusting stuff and lots and lots and lots of bad acting.

Lets see what you, the viewer, can look forward too if you decide to watch this movie. Rape of a corpse, a penis being ripped off, a chick shooting herself in the vagina, a corpse squeezing out a birth pouch full of baby heads, pincher bugs crawling into a dudes cock, speakers being plugged into some sort of baby head laden pentagram thus regenerating half of the dudes wife, the female corpse giving birth to a monster, a dude giving birth to a baby and so on and so forth.

None of the second half of the movie made any fucking sense to me. There's a swerve at the end that makes no sense, nothing makes sense, NOTHING.

I mean if you think that shit sounds silly enough to sit and laugh at it or if you really like over the top but pretty realistic gore then I guess maybe you'll enjoy the movie.

One last note on the film and film in general. Dudes, no matter how badly you want to act, you don't have to cast yourself in your own movies. Nobody wants to watch bushy headed fat dudes who can't act, attempt to do so for 80 minutes.
