Watch Holla

Holla must see for horror movie fans. I was caught up in Holla right off the bat. Director H.M. Coakley does an amazing job taking a page out of the how-to make a slasher movie guide. What I completely enjoyed about Holla was it being campy without being silly. When everything is happening a guy pulls out a gun then announces he had something for the killer. That was funny without being silly. Another funny thing was a token white guy being included. I was impressed with how good this young cast was. Not to mention how many sexy females are in this movie. Watch Holla you will not be disappointed. A super rental for when you plan on staying home. Halloween is approaching fast. Hollaweeen anybody?
