Spike (2008)
1/10
In the Same Class As Manos
27 December 2010
Warning: Spoilers
I watch plenty of horror/fantasy movies, and there are some real turkeys out there. But 'Spike' is in a class by itself, and no doubt will be talked about as among the worst films ever made - in fact, it reminded me of "Manos" the prior top in my book. Ridiculous plots and situations are part of the movie experience - but what's here is way beyond ridiculous. The acting is awful, the 'dream sequence' makes no sense, in the beginning the driver goes off the road for ten minutes before finally using the brakes, an easily avoidable snake, a puma that shows up out of nowhere, the monster's "living area" is exposed to the elements, you end up wondering why the lesbians even appear in the film since they add nothing to it, and finally the 'monster' who just happened to grow up with one of the girls. Why didn't the kid's parents seek help for his 'spikey' condition? The description of the movie on the back of the box was misleading, which I guess was the only way anyone would see this juvenile attempt at film making.
