Admirable film.

A Masterpiece!

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

...nonsense you'll have seen in a while. DEADTIME is an affront to the British film industry, a total waste of time and money for all involved (not talent though, because there's no talent gone into this) and one of the very worst films I've seen in a good while. I always seem to be saying that, but this really is poverty row stuff, with no redeeming values whatsoever.The 'storyline' sees the talentless members of a music group set up shop in a rambling old mansion ready for a new shoot. While there they fall prey to a masked, knife-wielding maniac who offs them one by one. Even worse, the psycho killer may well be one of their own, killing them due to one unknown grievance or another.To say that this is poor is to understate matters, because it doesn't get any worse than this. We get acting that ranges between the stilted and the completely over the top, with no middle ground. The narrative that involves characters pairing up and going off to have sex before being slaughtered in unappealing death scenes. There's unpleasant sexual violence, some absolutely awful CGI gore effects, and a couple of one-scene cameos from Terry Christian and Leslie Grantham apiece. It's an amateur hour production that should be avoided at all costs.

This truly is a British horror of a movie, which makes the viewer endure more than any person should. The only shocking thing throughout is the acting and the sooner the cast were killed off the better, none were believable and possible to like or dislike in any way. It was a relief when the poor ending arrived and I could turn the TV off, understandably you might be wondering why I saw it through to the end, I too am surprised. This may be the movies redeeming feature, although I will never repeat this mistake. There is a place for rubbish movies on the TV but this may have overstepped the mark.There was a total lack of imagination in this film and considering the real talent in the British film industry I cannot understand how this ever got made. Don't waste your time.

A band are ordered by their unhappy record company to an old post office, the goal being to re-start their ailing careers with a new promo video.Unfortunately the band and their entourage find themselves targets of a mysterious knife-wielding maniac, haunted by the voice of Satan, and for some reason out for revenge....Within the first two minutes of the band arriving at the warehouse, it's evident who the killer is. He may as well have wore a T Shirt saying it's me, rather than use the awful theatrics he does throughout the movie.There are a couple of plus points in this dog of a film, Terry Christian and Leslie Grantham pop up in the first five minutes in silly cameos, which are both really archetypal of their personalities, but a little fun.Then the film goes plummeting downhill.The acting is dire, none of the characters are likable, and the fact that the main guy Zack is a little eccentric, gives the game away a little.The actor who plays him is trying to be like Russell Brand, but really misses the mark and turns out more like Joe Longthorne.and to top it all off, there is the most ridiculous scene featuring the drummers uncle giving him some advice, thretening him, calling him a good lad, and going away. There was no reason for this at all, and just felt really out of place.The rest of the borefest, is the killer dressed as Scarecrow, kiliing people with really poor CGI.It's most definitely the worst film I have seen this year, and in my all time top twenty bad movies.

This rollicking film sizzles with energy; a boisterous romp of pure Brit' horror. OK, it's low budget, OK, it's got it's flaws, but go with it as viewer wanting entertainment, not a grizzled critic that hates everything. Some familiar faces, some lovely moments and overall it's a high octane, tongue in cheek British comedy horror film that is played for laughs. There really is some great music here with some great performances and great effects and the overall cocktail adds up to a scenario that draws you in and sustains your interest. I watch a lot of horror movies and this one has a few rare things - atmosphere and a sense of fun. Enjoy it for what it is and have a giggle.
