Now I've heard many people put this movie down, I think thats really unfair. Jack brooks is a great throw back to the feel of horror movies from the 80's, the practical effects (no cgi people) add alot to the proceedings, the character of jack and his rage gives us a character to root for, similar to jack burton or even ash, and with Robert englund adding a little physical comedy too, whats not to like. Granted it has a low budget (but I still think its looks better than a million straight to dvd movies with much bigger budgets) and it does take a while to get into the action, but hey its setting up a character and with Jack brooks 2, in the works, it sets him up well for further exposition free adventures. Get some beers in, get your mates round and give it a go, you never know you might just like it.Read full review
If you are looking for a cheap/enjoyable film then you will love Jack Brooks mosnter slayer. The movie may be low budget and have a few cliche horror moments but I can assure you it is still an exerince not to be missed.
It's great to see some old fashioned prosthetics in a monster movie instead of some naff cgi. Well worth a look with some great laughs and loads of action with buckets full of blood. Very good extras on the DVD. One downside is that the film was only 85 minutes long, but you can't have everything.
A riot from start to finish comedy horror with gore fantastic! In the ilk of Braindead. Very funny definitely needs a sequal!
I got this after watching the god awful vampire girl vs zombie girl. Not only is the plot witty and original, but it is perfectly paced with brilliant acting, and unlike most "Modern" horror films free from cheesy cliche's
Excellent film well worth the money ............................................................................
poor-poor-poor no story really, the trailer was good and thats it. no cgi which isnt a bad thing. and its not funny.
