Movie Review - ONE-EYED MONSTER

The tagline reads "If you see it coming, you're already dead."

Look at the poster. What do you think this movie's about?
Something coming for you from the woods?
Something that lives in that creepy old shack?
Something that came from outer space?
Ghosts?

Well, guess what? It's none of those things...sort of.

ONE-EYED MONSTER is a black comedy. A horror movie that pokes fun in a sort of "Shawn of the Dead" sort of way. You'd never guess it by looking at the poster.

Now, I liked "Shawn of the Dead" and "Army of Darkness". This movie, however, takes black humor horror to a whole new level.

In a nutshell (no pun intended), the "monster" in question is the "major attribute" of Ron Jeremy, who had been a major porn star of the 60s. The story revolves around a small group of people who go up into the mountains to a cabin, wherein they shoot a porn movie. That's where Mr. Jeremy's member becomes "possessed" and starts killing people.

Amber Benson (Tara, Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV series) stars as a makeup girl and major character.

There are humorous moments, but all in all it wilted for me (pun intended). However, you never know -- high school and college frat boys might push it to cult status.

My recommendation:
