Good story, Not enough for a whole film
A Brilliant Conflict
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
View MoreYes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
View MoreFor those who desire to see a decent spoof of "Twilight" I would recommend "Vampires Suck." Taintlight, which I found funny at times, was mostly crude. The film starts out with a man dropping his pants in the woods and then dropping the f-bomb. The humor includes far too many period, fart, incest, and masturbation jokes. Meredith Host is the twenty something that played a high school student.I liked the dad, who wore a t-shirt which proclaims, "I hate actors" which was clearly making a statement about the original film. Edgar would tell Stella to "shut the f@#$ up" and then say, "I'll see you tomorrow." Yes, there is clearly a spoof of the original, but the abundance of crudeness detracted from the film.F-bomb, no nudity.
View MoreTAINTLIGHT is an open spoof of TWILIGHT by the one and only Chris Seaver, a filmmaker with no discernible talent behind or in front of the camera. Seaver is best known for his shot-on-video horror/exploitation fare such as the FILTHY MCNASTY series but this sees him attempting a proper spoof of a popular film.Sadly, it's as infantile and ridiculous as the rest of the director's oeuvre, featuring nothing more than a bunch of non-actors getting into costume and hanging out in the woods. The humour is puerile, the over the top performances are supposed to be funny but really aren't, and the whole thing is nothing more than an appeal to the lowest common denominator.
View MoreThis is actually a very interesting short film (video) although at times it seems to go out of it's way to be funny.PROS: It is a spoof of a series I am not a huge fan of which in it's own right makes it funny. The over dramatic as well as the occasional under dramatic acting give this an almost comical edge that most spoofs seem to either overdo or fail at performing. The opening shot of the guy trying to find a place to poop was somehow hilarious to me as well as the very last scene of the film. I did actually laugh genuinely throughout this short.CONS: The cinematography was rather bad, editing should have been better, the short seemed a little rushed at times and a couple of the supporting cast were a little too bland.Overall this short film is pretty good and quite interesting. It is good to watch as long as you do not try and take it seriously and aren't a huge fan of the overdone and overrated series this little short film (video) makes fun of.
View MoreThis movie is so low budget and stupid that it's actually quite funny. It's basically the hard 'R' rated version of Vampires Suck. Stella moves back to the town of Bonejack Heights and with her incest dad.(The dad is hilarious because he has an incredibly fake mustache and tries to flirt with his daughter) When she goes to school, she meets a vampire named Edgar Mullen who treats her like crap, but she starts a love triangle with him and a Michael Jackson-loving werewolf named Jack. Edgar must protect her from Razor McBleed and his gang. If you like stupid movies, such as Twilight, you'll probably enjoy TAINTLIGHT!!!
