Movie Reviews of Masters of Horror: The V Word
Movie Review: Just to clear up some things
Summary: 3 Stars
For those who do not have the dvd and only seen this on Showtime, I can clear up some of your complaints about this episode.
In the director/writer commentary, a major story issue was revealed. When this story was being developed the two teens (nowhere in this episode was it stated that they were in college) were originally young boys between the ages 8-13. That was changed due to how much work and overtime this episoe required and child labor laws would have made that impossible to do with kids.
This was suppose to be a story about two boys that were pretty much geeks (or in Arjay Smith's character, Kerry, case a white geek dipped in chocolate). To a certain point that worked and didn't work. It took liberty with some of the things vampires do and rewrote the one thing they did-bite people. Instead they just rip necks and leave a open gap that doesn't heal or keep water down.
It should have focused more on Kerry since it was implied that he came from a worst home life than Justin. While Kerry was forced to accept becoming a vampire, Justin fought it to the very end. Ironside was the comic relief and the "father" figure that both boys lacked.
The ending flat out screams a sequel or a crossover with Angel, Buffy, Blade the Vampire Hunter, Morbius or Dracula.
Summary of Masters of Horror: The V Word
For two geeky best friends who ve only experienced carnage via their video games it s the ultimate late night dare: Ever seen a real dead guy? But when the pair breaks into a creepy local mortuary they unleash a ferocious ghoul (Michael Ironside of SCANNERS and STARSHIP TROOPERS) who s hungry to share a few depraved urges of his own. Even if these pals- forlife can resist a violent suburban blood-spree is there any peer pressure more horrific than that of the undead? Jodelle Ferland of SILENT HILL co-stars in this grisly twist on teenage vampirism written by series creator Mick Garris System Requirements:Length: 58 minsFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: HORROR/PSYCHOLOGICAL Rating: NR UPC: 013138991287 Manufacturer No: N9912Horror DVD Video
