Really Surprised!
I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
This movie does have some good moments. It didn't scare me, at all. I should've known there'd be a goofy police officer. There was also a few predictable scenes of when someone was going to die.I won't be in denial, but I admit I liked this movie a little bit. It is obvious it isn't an award worthy movie. There are much worse movies and horror movies out there, compared to Offerings.The one soundtrack song, in this movie, is really from Haloween's theme. There's no doubt about it. Notice: This is my very first review, on IMDb, so I'm still new to typing reviews. My first one was on Yahoo, years ago.
I totally agree with the main commentary about this film.The characters in this film are so stupid, you wonder how they can tie their own shoes or open a door.Not a spoiler: I can give an example-bad things start to happen at one of the character's house.It keeps getting worse and the cops do arrive. Do they say 'Go someplace safe" or 'Get away from the house."NO! They tell them to stay put. Do the characters run to another place? NO!This is a slasher film that should be put in the 'very bargain bin'(as in .1 cent bin)You know the killer is after revenge. Yet, you wonder if the killer gets they already have revenge knowing they have more brain cells than anyone else in town.The acting is bad and the storyline seemed to have been invented by someone sort of watching a slasher film one night before a deadline of some sort.AVOID-I can't say this enough.That said-it does have material to make fun of for about 15 minutes.(it just gets to pathetic to continue)
You're a kid, right? You go to all the trouble of befriending the town weirdo who is a loner and a mute. Everybody else hates him, and yet you still stand by the guy, even in the face of public ridicule. One day, a gang of them push him down a well. He receives a nasty head injury which stops him from developing a conscience. After he is rescued and returns home, he then proceeds to murder, and then eat his own mother. The men in white coats arrive, and he spends the next decade in a mental asylum. He escapes after a nurse forgetting to give him his tranquiliser is impaled through the head with it herself. He returns to his old neighbourhood, and how does he repay you for all those times you supported him years ago when no-one else would? Why, he kills all your best mates of course.. and delivers their severed body parts to your door! AND he bakes you a nice pizza with a new topping.. cooked human flesh! Ever get the feeling that winning his friendship wasn't worth the effort??This is a standard slasher flick with the usual assortment of dumb teenagers who just wanna make out, an overweight sheriff who becomes slowly more exasperated about what is happening in his formerly peaceful town and the remorseless killer who has just one line of dialogue at the end. The murder scenes are directed reasonably well, but in a predictable, stale fashion which leaves no room for surprises. There is a strange moment in a cemetery when a weird gravedigger is interviewed about what he saw.. his performance is so strange it's like something out of a different picture. But this is the only off-kilter moment in a film that could have done with a few more of them. Don't think you're a genius if you can guess the rest of the plot after 20 minutes. I did, and I'm certainly no member of MENSA.. 4/10 P.S What DID happen to Gretchen's dog?!
Pity poor young Johnny and his miserable existence. His abusive, gap-tooth grinding mother ridicules him and gleefully ashes in his scrambled eggs. Dad isn't around and the neighborhood banana bike brigade teases him because he's too shy to talk. What's worse, he becomes disfigured and comatose after being knocked into a well by his prepubescent peers. After spending years in a coma, he awakens, escapes and heads home for revenge, leaving body part "offerings" from his victims to the one girl who was his childhood friend (Loretta Leigh Bowman).Entertainment value is not hard to find in a cheap, stupid regional concoction like this. You'll be amazed by the bizarre accents mixing twang, valley talk and congested stoner slang spoken to monotone perfection by teenage Oklahoma trailer trash! Or laugh at the brain dead cops on the case, who might remind you of Barney Fife on an especially bad day and seem to have nothing better to do than chew out little boys for hanging out in condemned buildings looking at spank magazines. Or count the endless clichés and head to toe fashion no-nos (including the lovely star tie and stonewashed jean jacket ensemble). Or decide which is more derivative of HALLOWEEN - the characters, plot or music score. And how bout that mysterious pizza with large chunks of a sausage-like topping? This is actually one of the most unintentionally funny ripoffs from the 80s, so it's worth a look if you're a schlock fan.Score: 3 out of 10.
