Twoey Clarke (twoey-2) This is not a chickflick.I do not like forced humor (read: comedies). But I very much like dark humor. This was a combination of dark humor and very witty writing. Who cannot like a movie with lines like: life is not "all sunshine and handjobs"? Although it never rises above the production value of a "B" grade movie, perhaps even a "C", as is typical of true indies, it carries itself proudly with what it does have. Its energy and REFRESHING originality are worth a lot of points in today's movie making environment. I subtracted only two points from a "10", one for budget constraints and one for occasional grammar lapses, and both these faults are understandable under the circumstances.If you do not laugh during this movie, Bones will scan you and announce, "He's dead, Jim."
trancejeremy This is one of those movies that looks promising. But it really lets that promise down. It's neither good or bad good (in the campy sense), merely very very boring. And that's how a film really fails.The apparent aim was to make a campy sort of movie - you have a cast of ridiculous characters seemingly out of various animated comedies like Sealab, King of the Hill and possibly South Park. You have one bald guy who likes to dress like a priest, another guy who wears army fatigues (and looks like the guy who mutters from King of the Hill), a goofy Science Teacher, another bald guy who wears a deck of cards on his arm.The trouble is, none of the concepts really works. All of the actors play their roles too tightly, and it comes off as more pretentious than anything else. The only exception would be the campus cop leader.The plot apparently revolves around a romantic dispute over a guy in drag. This was when I started putting the DVD player on "x4". Nothing much happens, but near the end we get sort of a surreal sort of fight with a guy painted blue and wearing a helmet and everyone else.
jeremyfs Look...I have seen the movie and I was pleasantly surprised! I heartily disagree with a previous negative comment regarding the film. The film makers have created an original and quite amusing piece of work. These adventures are what gritty, classic, cult favorites are made of. This is an amazing achievement for the film making trio. The Land of College Prophets is apparently their third feature length film, which is more than most twenty-something film makers can boast, and on a very tight budget I might add! It's unique flavor may not be to everyone's liking but you would be doing yourself a great disservice to not have a taste. :) A fun romp for moviegoers seeking action, adventure, mischief and mayhem...with a side of funny.
J Boyd I actually worked on this movie. Well, briefly. I worked as a grip for the classroom scenes. But only for a few days because I simply could not stomach the out-of-control egos of the Hale Manor Collective. I also have to point out something very shady going on here. A few days ago, someone posted an honest review of this movie that the Collective did not agree with. A quick side note, the reviewer hit the nail on the head in saying that the reviews came from the people involved with the movie. They are. When the DVD's listing first appeared on Amazon, an e-mail was sent out for everyone to post reviews. When the negative review was posted, another e-mail was sent out telling us to "bury it". The good reviews that are on this page, and on the Amazon listing, are not honest. They are all phony and posted by the various members of the Hale Manor Collective, even if they are claiming that they have nothing at all to do with the movie. And frankly, that really stinks and is really unprofessional. So guys, face the facts. You made a lousy movie and somebody called you on it. Grow up.And I must add something else, while out for beers with these guys the other night, they boasted how they were getting the quote "nimrods at IMDb to take down all of the bad reviews of their movie". So watch this page closely. Glowing reviews written by the guys who worked on the movie will stay, honest reviews (aka "bad" reviews, or reviews that the Hale Manor Collective don't agree with) written by outside sources will disappear. They report the negative reviews by saying that there were spoilers or offensive language (in which there are neither), then laugh about it. These people are not only lousy film makers, but shady and underhanded on top of it all.
