Review of Necrosis (2010) by Jason D — 08 May 2010

In Necrosis, sex friends arrive at a lone cabin way up in the wintery mountains where the infamous Donner Party went loco and started eating each other. Before you can say ghostly hallucinations, ghostly hallucinations start appearing and creeping out some of the friends, specifically James Kyson Lee (from Heroes) who starts going a little crazy and isolating himself from the rest of the group, which also includes one-hit-wonder 80's pop singer Tiffany (in a pointless role).

Two friends leave to go help and never come back, so Lee goes nuts and attempts to start killing everyone and boom, the movie ends. What started out as a neat concept quickly became dull and boring, until it starts gaining momentum and then abruptly ends.

There's little ghostly action, little special effects, and some disappointing acting (though I will say Kee tries his best given the poor material), which made this movie an overall stinker. What's worse, the film features the awesome Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes, Devil's Rejects) as a local yokel, but his talents are wasted in this film as well.

I've certainly seen some god awful crap this year (like Dead Tone, The Caretaker, and others) and while this may not be as bad as those, Necrosis is still the pits! Big disappointment.
