Corey is cool....horror/comic scores

This film was part of a 6 DVD set called Kiss of Death distributed by Brentwood Home Video. So I took a chance on the entire set for some $22 bucks and was really surprised how cool there all are.

Little Corey, Sabino,the DVD says Todd Fortune?) is totally harassed by his brother and step mom. Credits on IMDb are confusing. And there are few practicals, meaning production shots, head shots, bios, etc.

Corey finally extracts his revenge over a series of mishaps and happenstances.

I really enjoyed this film. Little Corey had echos of Kevin Bacon and I thought he was a younger brother. His acting was really good as the harassed brother who also had a super crush on the very hot brunette and was delightfully flummoxed by most events he encountered.

Bill Morroni, the director, is very adept at directing and setting up scenes. Nice lighting, composition, direction make this horror, thriller, light comedy romp enjoyable.

Corey is great as the frustrated teen trying to date the rockin' brunette. And the girls are all hot.

Morroni is really good at the sex scenes. The scene of the coke chick in the van is great! As is the "pretty woman" shots of the brunette being followed by Corey, What teen hasn't followed his dream chick. And the photography of her walking down the street is really sensual. First she is in a cute "cowboy" outfit, then a slinky black skirt and boots, the camera adores her and her "own the street" walk. Nice job. Better than most movies, actually. She sure could walk.

That this is shot in 16mm with the legendary Bolex (REX IV,V maybe) for only $15,000 is unbelievable. And Morrini had to add sound FX and dialogue dubbing. The effort was well worth it as this movie is better composed and directed than most shark/monster crap on the SyFy channel.

The mom (who was to be Divine, great choice)was played well by Edenia Scudder, as the horrible, obnoxious, step mom. Her best line, "I've been tied up for two days and I am hungry".

She is tied up on a couch and everyone steps around her included kids at a party. This was hilarious.

I haven't seen Morroni's last effort on video, but will look for it.

I wonder what happened to all his actors and actresses.

This has strong potential for a cult circuit, take the movie to college campus and create a following like The Room with Tommy Wiseau.

The shower scene was cut, I wondered how the Biff got all chopped up by a single glass strand. But Bill says it has been restored.

A little more blood/guts would appeal to the Horror Hound crowd, but this could be a precursor to he Scary Movie type horror/comedy.

I am glad that Morroni added his comment to this site for background information. He needs to promote it more, as few have heard of this movie. I have seen and reviewed lots of movies and this is a hidden gem. I am glad I own it.

I am surprised Morroni hasn't done more films after this. He says he got ripped off by he distributor, which happens to a lot of filmmakers, but now there is the advantage of independent distribution and the web.
