Larry is the man

 

 This week Nate had to be heavily medicated so he wouldn’t have a breakdown meeting one of his heroes. The Bloodfest gang somehow tricked the great Larry Fessenden (Habit, Depraved, The Last Winter, Bringing Out the Dead, Like Me) into sitting down with us for a conversation.

He filled us in on his upcoming film, Blackout, which is his werewolf movie. We talked about him making his own version of the Universal Monsters Universe and how that fits into his career. 

Larry talked about recreating the Jaws boat, The Orca, and trying to have it attacked by a paper machier shark, then showed us his toys

He discussed having The Last Winter entered into the permanent collection of the MoMA and the awards he has won.

The conversation was far reaching and revelatory.

Larry is a funny, intelligent, kind man as well as being a giant in horror.

draft

 

When Wes Craven’s Last House on the Left was released in 1972, few people would have guessed that it would spawn an entirely new sub-genre of horror.* But that’s exactly what happened.  The list of movies inspired by Last House on the Left is expansive: The House on the Edge of the Park, I Spit on Your Grave, Chaos, Hitch-Hike, Night Train Murders, Revenge,  Terror Train and Candy Snatchers to name just a few.

LHotL is a revenge tale that takes inspiration from a Swedish folk tale.  Two teenage girls, Mari and Phyllis,  go into the city for a rock concert. On the way they attempt to buy grass from a guy on the street. He agrees to sell them the weed, but says that they need to come upstairs to his apartment to get it.  The girls are kidnapped by Krug, Weasel, Junior and Sadie. The gang rape them, take them to the country, rape them again then murder them. The gang seek shelter at a nearby house, not knowing that it’s the home of Mari. Mari’s parents let the group stay the night, but Mari’s mom, Estelle, sees her daughter’s necklace and figures out that these are the killers. The couple take brutal revenge, killing all involved.

Feral is better than ambien

I try to treat every film I watch fairly. To this, I manage my expectations. If a film is billed as an erotic thriller, I don’t compare it to Citizen Kane. Instead, I ask how well it did what it set out to do.  If a film has a low budget, I don’t compare its FX to Avengers. I also look for something that makes the film worthwhile. Sometimes a movie isn’t very good, but there’s one thing in it that makes you glad you saw it. Think of Primal Fear, a terrible movie that deserves to exist because of an outstanding performance by a young Edward Norton.  Sometimes it’s top-notch make-up FX that I enjoy. Sometimes it’s an engaging subplot. Most movies have something. Feral has nothing.

You tend to expect any movie with a “name” actor in it to have a baseline level of competence. Feral fucks that expectation right up.  The plot is pretty simple. Three couples go on a camping trip in the middle of nowhere. One of them is attacked and killed by something. The others succumb to a sickness that turns them into wild zombie-like creatures one by one. That’s it. Further summary isn’t really warranted as nothing novel or interesting happens. Sure, then meet a man who lives in the woods and take refuge in his cabin, so that’s more plot, but by then we don’t really care. T

The attempts at character development are thin, and kind of cliché. There’s a romantic triangle that isn’t believable, mostly because the people involved seem less like actual humans and more like some novice screenwriter’s half remembered recollections of characters in other, better, movies.

The star is Scout Taylor Compton (who was good in Rob Zombie’s Halloween, and other films). Here she is wasted. The screenplay gives her no real character traits and nothing to do.  

The “characters” stumble about behaving almost entirely but not completely unlike humans.  They make stupid decision after stupid decision and eventually we start to forget which of them is which as they are all identical in their stupidity. The dumb is fractal. No matter how closely you look it is always the same amount of dumb in the same dull shapes.

Thy FX are bland. The music is flavorless. The trees at least look like real trees and watching this slog of a movie I started to feel badly for them. These trees did not deserve the indignity of being featured in this monument to wasted investor funds. Whoever paid for this movie should demand a refund.

Feral made me tired. I wanted to be angry that it had wasted my time, but honestly what would be the point.  Mostly I feel like I need a hot shower and a long nap.
