YOU OWE ME AN HOUR AND A HALF OF MY LIFE!









Don't Go Into The Woods (2010) 

YOU OWE ME AN HOUR AND A HALF OF MY LIFE! Every heard of a horror musical? There's a good reason for that. The first clue it was going to be particularly bad? The command at the beginning to turn up the volume while watching it. WHAT??? I respect indie music but this drivel was the worst self-serving treacle I've had the misfortune of... well actually I fast forwarded every time they started to sing (even while dying they KEPT SINGING!!!) I have never been so mad at a bad movie... well maybe as mad but still...

Basic plot was like most others: Bring a bunch of late 20 something characters posing as college students together that you want dead before the intro finishes, and kill them off one by one in hum drum ways. A guy and his band go into the woods to try to make music. 


Unfortunately for the viewer they do. Constantly. They then, finally (an hour into the movie only two were dead - not near fast enough), die horrible deaths so that the lead character is the only one left to carry on his tone deaf career as a singer. The killer of most of them is never revealed, but you really don't care. You just want it to be over.
