Review of Deadlock

Deadlock (1997)
8/10
Fun with friends
11 March 2005
This clever send-up of the horror genre manages to both funny and scary... Great fun to watch with a bunch of friends and a bowl of popcorn. I'm not even a big horror fan myself but I get the gags.

The send-up of Hollywood -- one of the characters is a frustrated actor -- is well-done, I love the evil producer in the shiny suit. You can tell it was done on a budget, and it's fun to see the writer/director get the most out of clever shots and editing.

I saw this on DVD because it came up on the IMDb listing of an actor I like, and wound up buying a copy because I kept wanting to show it to friends.
