Truly Dreadful Film

Sadly Over-hyped

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Rodney Ascher's "The S from Hell" refers to the first letter from "Screen Gems". So were they evil or what is this about? Apparently yes to the people interviewed in this 8-minute short film. However, to me it felt as if substance was missing here really. It felt like a collection of scenes that were never really scary or scared me even if there was some gore and violence. Also the aspect of the unknown danger and presence of the letter S did not really work. I guess most people will see this fake documentary as a comedy, but sadly it was never really funny. 4 out of 10 is even generous as this one is really not worth a watch. Not even for fans of the horror genre.
