Solid, spooky effort., 22 March 2004
Author: mikero45 from Duluth, Minnesota

I've been a fan of David Schmoeller's since his earlier "Tourist Trap" which was, arguably, his best. The man's a little out there, that's for sure. And geez, I could see why he wanted to "Kill Mr. Kinski" after watching "Crawlspace". Seriously weird aura on that guy.

"Netherworld" is a tough act to follow "Puppetmaster" (the original is always the best). But there's some creaky performances here, with lots of dark lighting, Spanish moss, and Louisiana swamp. The old house is a lot spookier than "Haunted Mansion", which makes the occasional scare a little creepier and more believeable. At times it looks like they were running a little low on money - not surprising given the production company.

Is there better David Schmoeller stuff? Yep. But "Netherworld"'s got a quasi-plausible beginning, a middle and an end (which is more than can be said about a lot of high budget dreck out there). The constant bird cawing was a bit annoying (I wish somebody'd get a new sound effects tape - we've heard that dumb bird in a hundred movies).
