Review of Killjoy (2000) by Akeelah A — 09 Mar 2015

My brother said he received it from a friend without saying anything good or bad about it. He was hyped to show a horror film even if it was old but this is probably one of his biggest mistakes when it comes to movies. Me and the big bro watch movies together all the time to talk about our opinions on it. It's a family thing. Moving on though, the movie takes place at a school when a "young man" named Michael is beaten down by a bunch of "gangsters" Lorenzo, T-Bone, and the worst name ever, Baby-boy! Because Lorenzo thought he was hitting his girl. Now, the first part of the movie was just lazy because they beat him up but he doesn't have any bruises, cuts, or any blood on him after kicking his ass! After that I knew that the movie was going to be terrible! Such lack of effort put into a movie that was supposed to be a "horror"!

I don't want to talk about the entire movie but I will go on the terrible parts. 1. The acting was downgraded as can be! It's like you can tell they never acted in a day in their life! Every reaction was like watching a zombie interact! You would think that a killer clown that's teleporting you to a random location out of no where would scare the shit out of you but not exactly in this movie!

2. The choice of dialogue was hilarious! Gangsters actually saying, "Come out, come out! Wherever you are." or "Too many damn times! That's how many times! So, many damn times I've lost count!" you must have been taking kindergarten gangster classes if you think that's good!

3. Death scenes were terribly faked out! And there was only three I believe! One when Baby-Boy is smashed by a trunk in a warehouse! You could tell that he jumped back when the camera closed up on his face! The second one was just T-Bone smoked a random blunt on a gate for no real reason at all besides the fact that he stupid as shit! And the last one was Michael "dying" because Killjoy wiped him out!

I could make a few bad reviews on the plot but just for the fun, I say watch the movie for humor more than horror.
