During the first five minutes of Slotherhouse, I was laughing repeatedly. Characters were reacting in the oddest ways. Like a random person at the mall laughing when a dog urinates on him. It seemed intentional and the perfect B-movie tone.
But as the movie went on, it felt less like a B-movie and more like they were actually trying. And that magnifies the terrible quality acting, writing and all-around filmmaking. It becomes a glaring flaw as opposed to an intentional quirk.
I had basically given up hope until the last 30 minutes when stuff finally starts happening. Everything involving the sloth had me laughing hard. I wish they just focused on that because the non-sloth parts make the movie difficult to get through.
If they made a 15 minute short with only the sloth parts, I would watch it repeatedly and probably rate it 7 or 8 stars. (1 viewing, 12/13/2023)
