No scares, just good laughs., 4 May 1999

Author: Gary Dean (filmtalk@home.com) from NJ, USA

This film was a lot of fun. I am almost certain that Gina, Tony, Kevin, Billy, and Grant had a difficult time maintaining a straight face during the shooting of some scenes. That's what made this an interesting film. The youthful comedic approach to what may had seem to be a horrifying situation for the heroes of the film. Billy "Sly" Williams had the best line, "If I die and you don't, !@*# you". Raymond St. Jacobs did a fine job as well. This movie was done relatively well in spite of it's weak plot. I gave it a 6/10.

Somebody get it straight., 27 July 2005

First off, the DVD cover image above is from the wrong movie. That cover image is from the 1998 film also known as Voodoo Dawn (aka: Fait Accompli) which starred Michael Madsen and Rosanna Arquette. This film was released 8 years prior and in my opinion is a much better movie, although that isn't saying much considering the comparison. It is actually about voodoo/zombies whereas the other is more of a crime melodrama. The 1990 Voodoo Dawn isn't Oscar worthy itself but it does have its cheesy charm. If you are a zombie fan (like me) be prepared for more traditionally created zombies than the Romero shamble-type zombies. This movie also has an early appearance of Tony Todd before he became Candyman.

Boring, 18 July 2006

Author: Tikkin from United Kingdom

Voodoo Dawn started of looking promising, but as usual for a low-budget horror flick went downhill from there. The opening scene on the boat whets your appetite and leaves you wanting more. However, after this things soon become desperately dull. There's a lot of walking around and talking and something about a witch doctor. The scene in the house could have been creepy, but it just wasn't. After this, things plod along at such a slow pace that eventually I had enough and switched it off. There were a few scenes shot in darkness in which I THINK someone was killed, but it's hard to tell since you can't see a thing.

Avoid this junk, it's far too boring.
