And you know what? It IS chalk full of goodness! Hats off to the creators of this flick for entering a line into the Hall of Fame of awesome movie quotes. I was told to watch this with my mind shut off and to just sit back and simply enjoy it for what it is. What's not to like?? A freaking killer soundtrack, some great action with shovel-related deaths (sweeeeeet!), and some hot-ass talent on-screen (see you in my dreams Barrett). I don't get why people are saying the plot was confusing. What's to confuse? Shovel-wielding maniac, meet demons, FIGHT! Sure, it's got it's flaws, but seriously what movie out there doesn't, indie or blockbuster? I can't wait to see what these guys come out with in the future. If this is something they set out to have fun with, then imagine what their next project will be like when they put their all into it. I think then a lot of criticizers of Desperate Souls will see the light.Go pick it up, grab a few friends and some drinks and enjoy it!

This movie was absolutely awful - bad acting combined with way too many showy camera shots, and a storyline that was hard to follow and made very little sense. I only watched through to the end with hope for something good, but was disappointed when the film came up with nothing redeeming to end the movie with. There was either overacting or underacting, and nothing was consistent. And the lines that were trying to be funny just didn't belong. The opening shots made the movie appear to be interested, but it was only a letdown from then on. I do not recommend this movie unless you are a film student looking for what not to do when making movies. This looked like the work of an overzealous film student.

wow. this is quite possibly one of the worst movies ever made... and that's what you've gotta love about it! it's definitely one of the funniest movies i have ever seen. i didn't go more than 2 minutes without cracking up through the entire thing. i was seriously crying from laughing so hard. trust me, there are more memorable quotes in this movie than there were in napoleon dynamite. if you want to have a good time and watch a movie that is so bad you can't stop watching it, rent this one. it's a winner.it leaves you with one question... what the hell is with the manbag and vest?

Desperate Souls targets those who love a good horror flick. The story line will grab hold of the viewers attention, as well as provide the movie watcher with a sense of excitement!!! It is obvious that the crew of Desperate Souls put a great amount of effort and time into perfecting this movie. As well the actors/ess performed their roles exceedingly past any sort of expectation. The soundtrack to Desperate Souls provided the movie with backbone of metal/rock music performed by numerous indie bands in the local Toronto area. So if you are looking for a great movie to get you in the mood for Halloween rent Desperate Souls!!!
