Review of The Brood (1979) by Jarett B — 09 Oct 2007
Wow...this movie...sucked. I usally love cronenberg's work...acutally this is the only cronenberg film I haven't liked...and well, I didn't like it a lot. for a horror movie...or a suspense, there is very little suspense, very little horror, the acting is pretty terrible.
Most of the diaglouge is so mumbled you have to turn up your speakers to 100% to hear it (maybe that was intentional so when the jump parts happened it scared you?) The movie was not scary at all, the concept, kinda cool, but for Cronenberg, it didn't have any backing at all.
The last 10 minutes get a little interesting, but by that point the movie is already lost. Skip this, watch Rabid instead.
