The Land of College Prophets Trailers

Belligerent malcontents Tommy (Thomas Edward Seymour) and Rye (Philip Guerette) have mediocre jobs and are struggling at the local community college. But their problems really start when a brawl over a girl awakens an evil force, which soon drives everyone in town to perform violent, destructive acts. Fortunately, the College Prophets, a band of fighters with a long history, is on hand to try and save the day in this cult action-horror film.

Good concept, poorly executed.

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

The Land of College Prophets shows much promise and will likely be the stepping stone to a great career for writer/director/star, Thomas Edward Seymour. The movie, while being primarily an action film with supernatural/comic book elements, has great dialogue and narration throughout the film. While obviously special effects and a larger budget could have made the film more appealing visually, I would call this an all around success for the filmmaker. This is what indie films are all about and it is rare that you get to see a truly independent action film. Land of College Prophets is a film that any comic fan should see. I look forward to seeing more work from the Hale Manor team in the coming years.

Great film, which demonstrates what can be achieved on a budget.There's credible acting, fantastic fight choreography. There's also some unexpectedly serious gore and gorgeous cinematography - all of which combines to make you realise LAND OF COLLEGE PROPHETS is a masterpiece of low budget, independent cinema.Great fun, and surprisingly moving at times too. A muscle fest for the main part though ... recommended!Good luck to Tom, Phil and the guys on their next project.Please support the collective, as there is huge promise in films like this.

This is one of those movies that looks promising. But it really lets that promise down. It's neither good or bad good (in the campy sense), merely very very boring. And that's how a film really fails.The apparent aim was to make a campy sort of movie - you have a cast of ridiculous characters seemingly out of various animated comedies like Sealab, King of the Hill and possibly South Park. You have one bald guy who likes to dress like a priest, another guy who wears army fatigues (and looks like the guy who mutters from King of the Hill), a goofy Science Teacher, another bald guy who wears a deck of cards on his arm.The trouble is, none of the concepts really works. All of the actors play their roles too tightly, and it comes off as more pretentious than anything else. The only exception would be the campus cop leader.The plot apparently revolves around a romantic dispute over a guy in drag. This was when I started putting the DVD player on "x4". Nothing much happens, but near the end we get sort of a surreal sort of fight with a guy painted blue and wearing a helmet and everyone else.

Writing a review without spoilers isn't the easiest thing to do, but none-the-less, there couldn't be a better film with less of a budget. The original story and casting are two of the stronger points in this movie that stick out the most. The Land of College Prophets (2005)touched every genre but family, sorry kids. There hasn't been a better cameo appearance in the history of movies that topped THE Pranav Thakkar in this film (must see). Not even even Eliza Dushku and Ali Larter in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, or Alanis Morissette and Janeane Garofalo in Dogma. This film wasn't drawn out, or too time consuming. a must see for any film fanatic with an appreciation towards hard work & dedication.
