    2 out of 5 stars If Only ...   July 3, 2008
    If only the film considered religion seriously
    and developed characters beyond the superficial
    this could have been a great horror film.

    There are very good effects and cinematography.
    There is action and humor and decent acting.
    The look and feel of the film were very good
    and the plot was interesting.
    But when the Devil has at least as much respect
    for the Holy Bible and the morals and theology
    of the Christian religion as the exorcist
    and his friends, you have a problem.

    Camp is good and this film could
    have been very good camp.
    I wanted to like this movie more.

    The movie ended with our hero
    letting his sister drive the car.
    What a guy!






    2 out of 5 stars Daisy the Cat   October 7, 2007
    I thought the cat, who ends up licking blood from a severed head, was a phenomenal extra. Her name is Daisy and she is completely underrated. I hope we see more of her in the future.


    2 out of 5 stars A Saga of Fear, Faith and Zombies?   July 7, 2007
    First of all, Kevin Vanhook's Voodoo Moon is a B movie. It is not meant to be great cinema. If you take it at that level its not really a bad film.

    Starring Eric Mabius and Charisma Carpenter as brother and sister, Cole and Heather, the last two survivors of a demonic massacre on their home town, the film attempts to portray the ultimate battle between good and evil. With that being said the film is like all good vs. evil battles except on a slightly to much lower budget. Vanhook is a hands on film maker and he has performed the task of writing, producing, editing and directing the film.

    The story while it has some plot holes is not really that bad. The concept is pretty good even if the execution is flawed by the lack of budget. The supporting cast is solid also. We have both John Amos and Dee Wallace in decent form. Less strong performances are given by Jeff Combes and Jayne Heitmayer as part of Cole's team of zombie slayers.

    Religion is used effectively in the film and the key battle is more out of the Exorcist than a film like Blade. The zombies are simply there for the gore factor. The film plays more like Shaun of the Dead than Dawn of the Dead, even though both may be counted as sources of inspiration.

    With a higher budget this one could have been a contender instead of o straight to video release. The DVD includes two featurettes on the making of the film, three deleted and extended scenes, a photo gallery and a commentary by writer, producer, editor, director Vanhooks.

    Rent it for an evening of lite horror fun.



    2 out of 5 stars Too many unanswered questions...   January 7, 2007
     2 out of 3 found this review helpful

    Having just spent the last 90 something minutes of my life watching Voodoo Moon, I have too many unanswered questions. The first and most important is "Did the movie creators loose interest or run out of budget?" This is very much an unfinished work, a diamond in the rough that was never honed.

    After the first hour, I was ready to give Voodoo Moon a 4 or 5 star rating. The characters have potential, the plot was intricately woven, everyone had a role to play in this great fight against good and evil, and there were a hundred small subplot just waiting to be resolved. The villain even alluded to `making' the hero twenty years ago. Cool! How did that happen I wondered eagerly. I was almost bouncing up and down in my seat when I heard about a really cool underwater ghost town. YAY! This was going to be fun!

    Then....

    Nothing. No subplots were tied up. The main plot isn't resolved. It isn't like they tie up a few loose ends then prepare you for a sequel- that's not the feeling that you get here. No ones powers were explained, the big, build up fight took ten seconds, and the main `boss' villain was defeated in a silly, too easy way.

    If the movie had been developed more, polished more, it would have been great. As it is now, watch it only if you want to have some cool character ideas to play around with in your mind, because nothing will be fixed on screen.

    Bottom line, I can't recommend it in good conscience.



    3 out of 5 stars Actually not half bad   December 24, 2006
     6 out of 7 found this review helpful

    Lately, there's been a lot of direct to DVD horror movies released by Anchor Bay (It Waits, Room 6, Demon Hunter); just about all of which have been nothing worth seeing. I expected the same from Voodoo Moon, but surprisingly it's not a total crud-fest like I had expected it to be. Eric Mabius (Resident Evil) and Buffy and Angel's Charisma Carpenter star as siblings with tragic pasts, that soon find themselves holed up with a few other people as demonic forces threathen them. Predictable to the extreme, Voodoo Moon is surprisingly enjoyable for what it is, with Mabius being a surprisingly decent hero, and Carpenter looking as beautiful as ever, though her comedic talents which Buffy and Angel fans know by heart, don't get to be put on display. The action scenes are mostly decent, and the rest of the cast, including Re-Animator icon Jeffrey Combs and the Howling's Dee Wallace, are good as well. All in all, if you're looking for an enjoyable B-movie romp that doesn't take itself super seriously, check out Voodoo Moon.
