Weirdsville (2007)

Directed by Allan Moyle

Comedy | Crime

Overview

Dexter and Royce, two stoner friends in Weedsville, scramble to cover up the apparent overdose of Royce’s girlfriend, Mattie, by trying to bury her at a closed drive-in theater. Their plan goes sideways when they stumble into a Satanic cult mid-ritual, and Mattie unexpectedly comes back to life. Now pursued by the cult, they also face threats from local drug dealer Omar, demanding payment for a botched drug deal.  In a desperate bid to settle their debt, Dexter and Royce steal a safe from a wealthy coma patient while evading the cult and Omar’s enforcers. The chaos culminates at a New Age center, where Mattie is nearly sacrificed, but the trio manages to escape after an explosive showdown that leaves both the cult and Omar neutralized. With their debt cleared and Mattie alive, Dexter and Royce flee the scene, barely escaping the insanity.

Viewing Notes

I consider Weirdsville one of those flicks that sounded good on paper and someone thought it’d make a wacky low budget fun little film. I can think of few that fit that bill however this is not one of them. Not that it’s bad but it just isn’t all that interesting by the time the end comes. A whole lotta meh. Wish Taryn Manning had more to do here than lay in bed most of the film. Jordan Prentice is great here.
