2014 Horror Fest: Coffin Baby: 17 Out Of 100 Stars

Ughhh. Let's see here, we start out in 1958 and some allusions to a murder that happened, then we fast forward to today where someone or something, who gives a fuck, is terrorizing LA. We know this because every LA landmark that exists gets a shot. Some girls get murdered, a girl who looks like Katie Holmes gets kidnapped, lots of torture porn ensues, the girl yells a lot.

Long, dull scenes of bodies being cut up are interspersed with that appears to be an attempt at a story. Some guy who looks like Eddie Furlong wears a douchey hat and gets interrogated by police in an approximation of acting.

About an hour into the movie Bruce Dern shows up quoting scripture and you'll start to wonder if someone slipped you some acid. Then the movie kind of ties up things you kind of don't understand but certainly don't give a dump about.

The gore is really good but completely wasted. No nudity. I think there's a story, but fuck if I know what it is. The writing is hogwash and the acting is laughable. If you watch this movie in the midst of diarrhea, it'll still be 2nd most artistic thing happening.
