    • Quotes

      [first title card]

      Title Card: "There is no devil but fear."

    • Crazy credits
      Before the opening credits, a title card presents a quote from Elbert Hubbard, "There is no devil but fear."
    • Alternate versions
      The R1 DVD from A-Pix is heavily cut. For some reason it is more like a PG version with some gore, nudity and, graphic language cut out. Unfortunately, with these cuts, some of the scenes don't make sense. If you can find the R2 DVD or even the old school VHS, you will see the film in its R-rated entirety.

    Creepy film
    Granted, I've seen better horror flicks in my day, but this is a solid outing. Morty, the life-sized wooden doll, redefines creepy. Throw him in a dark wooden setting, and you get some solid terror.

    The plot centers around a student Richard, well played by Eddie Bowz, who invites some friends to a wooden cabin to analyze their fears as study for his thesis papers. While there, Richard must confront his own inner demons which become magnified when he sees his childhood toy Morty at the cabin.

    Soon Morty begins to terrorize the group, using their darkest fears as a weapon.

    The cast was solid. Bowz handles the lead quite well and genre oddball Darin Heames(Night of the Demons 2 & Dr. Giggles) shines as his best pal with questionable morals. Heather Medway, portraying Bowz' love interest was the best actress involved, outshining Ann Turkel.

    I recommend this for people who like to be creeped out. Has a dark atmosphere and the use of the foley artists as Morty chases people was handled well also.
