Movie Review: See No Evil
Published June 12, 2006
Eventually, the survivors wind up in the typically over the top "horror film den of slaughter," otherwise known as Mr. Goodnight's apartment. What, no maid service? Dead bodies, parts of bodies, and lots of eyes, jars and ichor dress up the room. (But I bet he watches American Idol in his spare time away from wreaking pain and death.) Again we are treated to flashbacks as he tries to communicate with his caged victim, showing his ill-treatment as a boy by his psychotically religious mom, who also kept him in a cage.
As noted in other reviews, the room bells are tied to various beds throughout the hotel, tinkling when anyone may get an inkling, if you catch my drift. The tinkling sends him off to find the culprits, and leads to a wonderful scene involving a two-way mirror, his ominous silhouette, and lots of crashing glass. The hunt is on once again, and the survivors start to fight back. A novel plot twist (at least I didn't see it coming) leads to a retribution and a non-sequel antic ending that is rather satisfying.
While the film may be your typical romp in a deserted hotel with a bunch of smart-ass delinquents and a psychotic — got something in your eye? — brick wall of a killer, it does have its endearingly horrific moments. The acting, including Kane's turn as the murder machine, is good, and all in all, the film is worth seeing at a cleaner theatre, or on DVD (when available).
(Note to self: add "don't look over window sill after pushing huge psychotic killer out of same to see if he fell" to horror movie non-survival tip #2).
