Lack of good storyline.
everything you have heard about this movie is true.
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
The B movie studio Nu Image has made some good direct to video movies over the years. Unfortunately, "Skeleton Man" is not one of them. In fact, I think that this could be the worst effort to date that's come out of the company. For starters, it looks really cheap. Everything about the movie looks real tacky, especially the title monster, which looks like it was put together from Halloween product offered at a dollar store. The characters are just as unengaging - there is precious little development done with these people. They are simply bait for the monster. The movie is also badly directed. It's slow and endless, and the, ahem, horror sequences have absolutely no shocks or even serviceable splatter. But I think the worst thing about the movie is that there is NO real explanation for why the title figure has appeared and why it's doing what it's doing. Does it have to do with the archaeological dig mentioned in the first scene? Does it have to do with the Native American the team finds in the woods at one point? It's never made clear. This movie is junk in every way you can think of. If it had been unintentionally funny, there might have been a reason to see it, but this is one bad movie that's so bad it's bad.
Anytime someone asks me what is the worse movie I've ever seen, Skeleton Man always comes to mind.I tell people to watch just to see how dumb it is. It is probably good for a laugh if you like horrible movies.Or maybe it would be amusing if you were on drugs. I'm guessing the writers and directors were when they made this.Seriously, how does something like this even make it this far? I'm pretty sure my 15 year old nephew could make something better on his computer.So if you are in the mood to see how bad a movie can be, and you can download it or whatever for free, then go for it!
Movies can be bad in many ways- bad acting, bad direction, bad or no story, bad music. But this movie is bad in an uncommon way. It looks as if they ran out of money and had nothing left for post-production. The music but particularly the editing are a disaster, rendering this movie not fit for release.Some military guys are killed bloodily by some creature dressed up as the grim reaper with a very oversize gown and hood. This creature on a horse can further travel through wormholes in space to end up somewhere else, usually, 5 feet further.A team of special forces is sent to deal with the situation. This team of experts include a bunch of skinny girls who look like 3rd rate catalog models- they include sniper experts and so on.One by one the creature, will dispatch them in gory ways. There's plenty of gore and violence, there are a lot of pyro effects. That's pretty much it for the good aspects of this movie. This creature we learn is some type of native American who went crazy and gained superpowers somehow. The crew seemed to have money, there are helicopters and aerial shot in this movie. The villain is pretty ridiculous. And the way the story is told it just makes no sense. It would be interesting to see a report on what happened to this movie. Like I said, the resources, the casting is there but somehow it just didn't work.
I got this in The Horror Six-Pack from Echo Bridge Home Entertainment. This one is not the worst movie ever made, but it still sucks. In fact, this movie sucked so hard, I don't know how I'm gonna write this review, especially since 1. I popped it out of the DVD player because I couldn't even watch another second and 2. Hurricane friggin' Ike is coming and God knows how long 'til it take for me to get this review done. The movie starts off with a scientist and his wife. The scientist receives a valuable artifact and examines it when this supposedly Urban Legend known as the Skeleton Man kills him, and later on his wife. Then... I'm sorry, but there's really not much else I can say about this POS except don't bother. I'm currently using the disc as a coaster, and if you see this, you might want to do the same. Casper Van Dien and Michael Rooker must have needed cash...BADLY! PS. I'll pretty much be reviewing the movies in the boxset and might do a new review on Ghoulies IV.
