Viewing Notes

A Full Moon feature shot in Romania?! Shocked!! j/k aside the early homoeroticism had saying to myself, “lol did David DeCoteau direct this?” not knowing the director nor thinking he had when I decided to fire this up (tbh I just always think Charles Band directs every Full Moon feature until told otherwise).

Thirty minutes or so into the movie I looked it up bc I was curious about an actor and saw that it was indeed DeCoteau who directed this! Folks, I laughed out loud.

Anyways this isn’t a good movie and really makes little sense. Could’ve been chopped down and important elements removed like any kind of character development or reason to care about any of this nonsense. Too bad.
