Review of The Vagrant (1992) by Tim S — 25 Apr 2014
The Vagrant is another horror film recently rescued from obscurity by Shout! Factory's Scream Factory label. The movie tells the story about a young successful guy who is being terrorized by a vagrant in his new apartment.
The movie goes for a dark comedy feel, but doesn't always succeed. There are moments when I laughed out loud and was drawn into it, but never fully. I also didn't care for the girlfriend character, who was more or less bitchy and uninteresting.
The movie probably would have worked better if it wasn't a black comedy, at least not as overtly, but by itself, it can still be an entertaining watch, but just don't expect to want to see it more than once.
