Tongue and Cheek
I watch a lot of movies, some bad and some good, however, this one falls into the category of sitting on the fence. I didn’t know what to expect and was delightfully surprised and watched it through to the end. The scenery and environment scene were typically filmed in the English countryside and everything seem to fit into a mad little community. Although an obvious low budget film it was very entertaining and the acting was good enough to keep my interest, it’s tongue and cheek and meant to be so. So don’t be expecting a high budget thriller, it’s witty in places and the crocodile is hilarious, reminded me of 1970’s dinosaur movies. So would I recommend it? As long as you are in the mood for dry wit and forget the effects of most blockbusters then yes.
Brit Schlock Horror
I’ve read some ridiculous critic reviews comparing this movie unfavourably with Shaun of the Dead, which cost at least five times as much to make and didn’t include the added distraction of kids and animals in the cast, for that alone the director should be commended!This movie isn’t intended as serious horror but as a Brit-style humour-fest of ridiculous characters in ridiculous circumstances, plus animals, animatronics and kids. Many seasoned directors wouldn’t take on that task with a $1M budget let alone a director in his first feature. The humour will either work for you or not and the acting is certainly better than the first two Harry Potter movies!
The cinematography by Gerry Vasbenter is sumptuous for a low budget movie, with moody shots of the Somerset Levels and some great river scenes. Sound is excellent and Jon Cameron’s bouncy score sets expectations early on. Alistair Crocker’s sound mix is remarkably good for a movie at this budget level. Michael Anderson’s ambition is commendable but the cast is always going to be a compromise at this level.
Highlight of the cast is the lovable Georgia Henshaw who moved effortlessly between fun party girl and truly horrified almost-victim and extremely good value for whatever they paid her for the part. The interplay between Jack McMullen as Russell and Danny Kirrane as Lardy was measured and well delivered by both. I hope we see more of them. Justin Lee Collins was essentially himself but didn’t detract too much.
All in all I enjoyed it for what it is – a simple piece of entertainment, not without flaws but remarkable technicals at this budget level.
