Featured review
You have to start somewhere, I guess
I'm actually very hesitant about writing a review for this movie. First, I've never seen a Troma film before, and second, this is the first full-length feature by a teenager. I got a link and password for an electronic screener a few days ago, but put it off until now. Having had no expectations of any kind, I did find BC BUTCHER impressive in the sense that took quite a bit of doing for it to get made, and for the enthusiasm of its young director. As for what I liked, the film was knowingly silly and never took itself seriously. Although maybe not a laugh-riot, there were a handful of moments that made me chuckle. For instance, when the lead cave woman kills the "beast," which is a stuffed leopard. I thought that was kind of cute. I also liked the score and soundtrack, although one song in particular got used a little too much. In general, the effects weren't too good, but were decent enough for a low-budget film (and this was shot on 16mm). What didn't work for me was the (hopefully intentionally) bad performances by pretty much the entire cast. From what it looked like, they had fun, but the dialogue and plot sometimes got a little too stupid for their own good. Occupying sort of a neutral zone were continuity errors and anachronisms which, again, may have been completely intentional. Overall, since I was able to see this for free, I'm not complaining. Maybe Troma just isn't for me, although I would need to see a few more to make sure. As for the director, Kansas Bowling, I wish her well and hope she goes on to greater things. You have to start somewhere, and BC BUTCHER wasn't a bad place to start.
