    • Trivia
      During an 2004 interview, Tiffany Shepis explained how she got cast. "It was really weird. I got this call and I probably get like five of these a month. Some young kid fresh out of film school, whose like 'you're so hot' and 'I really love you' shit and 'we want you in our movie' and I'm like cool, alright and they send a script and I say yeah sounds cool, a lot of fun. And I give them my rates, and, of course, it never happens. So I got this call and these guys in Alabama are like, 'we love you and we want to put you in a movie with Bill Moseley and Tom Towles.' And I'm like yeah sure. I give them my rates and like a week later they send me a plane ticket and hotel and I was like wow. They are like eighteen years old. We went out to Alabama and we shot these crazy scenes. Not much of a story line but a big shit pile of gore and I got to work with Bill."

    Gory but not great.
    If it's a dose of graphic old school gore you're after then Home Sick, with its regular and excessive scenes of non-CGI carnage, definitely delivers the goods: feet are sliced, heads are crushed, fingernails are torn out, teeth are smashed in, bodies are cleaved in two.

    It's the stuff between the splatter that takes the film down a notch or two.

    Writer E.L. Katz and director Adam Wingard have taken an offbeat approach with their storytelling, and the cast perform accordingly, putting in some decidedly strange performances; the result is a head-scratchingly bizarre movie at times, equal parts sadistic horror, wacky splat-stick, low-brow comedy, and avant-garde art-house weirdness, an awkward mixture that is certainly memorable, but not always that easy to digest.

    Bill Moseley hams it up as a creepy stranger with a suitcase full of razor blades; Tiffany Shepis rolls around manically in her dead mother's blood; Tom Towles slaps his thighs as his son and his friends play with an assortment of firearms: occasionally the silliness works, but at other times it's just too eccentric for its own good.

    Home Sick is worth watching simply for all the lovely red stuff—and Shepis getting her norks out (again)—but it's certainly not for everyone.
