Directors: Brendan Faulkner, Genie Joseph, Thomas Duran
Stars: Felix Ward, MAria Pechukas, Dan Scott, Nick Gionta, Joan Ellen Delaney
Plot: A group of people decide to party in an old, seemingly abandoned mansion. They end up in the middle of a sorcerer's "game" to take their youth so that he and his reluctant wife could live forever.
You know how some horror movies are so bad that they're good? This is not one of those movies. It's just bad. There's too much going on in the story and way too many creatures, which I assume are the "spookies." The spookies include:
-A dapper cat-man who looked like Nightcrawler from X-Men
-A goblin child
-An Asian spider woman
-An exploding grim reaper
-Normal zombies
-Gasy zombies whose weakness was wine
-A demon girl
-Witchy woman
-Snake demons
-An octopus demon thing with electric tentacles
I think that was it. While some of these things were mildly exciting, it took them way too long to attack the people. I might have liked the movie better if the focus was just on these people being attacked, but wait! There's more.
Why are the party people being attacked? The spookies kill some of them to create zombie children for a sorcerer and his "wife," while others just get the life sucked out of them so that the sorcerer can live forever. I assume the young lady dressed in a bridal gown is the sorcerer's wife, since she's dressed as a bride and states that they have one child together, and the sorcerer constantly speaks of how he's in love with her and has stayed by her side for 70 years waiting for her to come back to life. However, she didn't seem too happy when she awoke from her deathly slumber.
Overall, there was too much happening in this movie and some parts of the story were confusing. This was my first time watching Spookies and probably the last time. Here's the trailer:
