Second Life, Starlight Rise

Film yang bagus!

After having seen the trailer for the 2020 movie "Psycho Goreman", I must admit that I was definitely looking forward to watching this movie. Why? Well, because it seemed like a fun horror comedy that paid heavy homage to the horror movies of the 1980s, the movies that I grew up watching. And when I had the chance to sit down to watch "Psycho Goreman", I jumped at that chance immediately. And I must say that writer and director Steven Kostanski didn't fail to deliver. This movie was exactly as I had hoped from what I saw in the trailer. Yup, an over-the-top and hilarious horror comedy that felt very much like something you'd see in the 1980s. Even the costumes and props felt like something from way back then, and it worked out so nicely for the movie. The storyline was pretty straight forward, but the creature that become known as Psycho Goreman was really the star of the movie, as he was just brilliant. I mean, taking a galactic evil overlord with the power to annihilate planets and put him at the mercy at pre-teenagers, it was just a blast. There were so many funny scenes throughout the course of this movie. Visually then "Psycho Goreman" was also a walk down memory lane, back to the glory days of the 1980s. Lots of practical effects made like back in the day, so it was pure nostalgia. But it worked well for the movie, and added a great and unique touch to the movie as a whole. Now, I will say that younger audiences might not particularly find enjoyment in Steven Kostanski's "Psycho Goreman". But if you grew up on 1980s horror movies and enjoyed those, then "Psycho Goreman" is definitely right up your alley. I was more than genuinely entertained by this movie, and it was a great and fun movie to watch. I can warmly recommend that you take the time to sit down to watch the 2020 movie "Psycho Goreman". My rating of "Psycho Goreman" lands on a well-deserved six out of ten stars.

Psycho Goreman is a movie that knows exactly what it is trying to be, and exactly what its limitations are. It's a five-star three star movie that embraces the fun rubber-suit splatter gore aesthetics of cheesy 80s flicks, the kind that Troma excelled at (but without the vomit and nudity that often went along with it - the main characters are middle-school students after all). The monsters in the film feel like someone decided to do a comic version of Warhammer 40K - strange, horrifying, with gothic elements that incorporate weird baby faces, disturbing technology, magic and machinery. Now put all that firepower in the hands of a truly psychotic middle-schooler, and make it a comedy. It's good, dumb fun that embraces its concept to an almost ludicrous degree. If things like Toxic Avenger, GWAR and Terrorvision make you giggle, of it you just wondered what a weirdly violent Alf-style sitcom based around a Warhammer 40K chaos demon would look like, there's lots to love in this film.

And that is before it goes all Power Rangers. Yeah, it's gory and goofy. But don't expect a plot. The girl's incessant sassiness will have you rooting for PG to do something about her.

I usually can get into campy, 80's-ish, fun-silly movies (like TURBO KIDS or similar in tone/atmosphere/etc.) and it looked like PSYCHO GOREMAN would be right up my alley but it was a really terrible movie. it's not even "so-bad-it's-good"/guilty pleasure type of movie. the writing and the acting is horrible even for an intentionally campy/goofy movie like this one. the every character (except for the young brother who was cool & Psycho Goreman who was the best thing in the film) was mind-numbingly annoying ESPECIALLY the lead young girl. she was kind of funny at first but after about 10 minutes of her insulting/bullying everyone you just wish her character would die violently and painfully. LOL. there's some fun gore/blood scenes and many of the FX are 80's style terrific. the problem is those fun gore/blood scenes aren't enough to make the AWFUL writing and atrocious acting (grade school plays have better acting!) more tolerable. i really wanted to like this movie but it's worse than a Power Rangers (or show/movies like it) episode.

Okay: Aesthetically, this movie is amazing! The team behind the practical effects should be winning awards left right and centre...THAT SAID though... This movie really had the potential to shine but I find time and time again, the producers never put enough importance on shining up that script. It had a charming premise and although--on average--I'd say the actors' abilities were somewhere in the "adequate" to "above adequate" range, the story really left much to be desired. A real shame because it did have potential. The writers and producers deserve a 2/10, the actors somewhere in the 6/10 range and the special effects team deserves a 9/10.

One of the main characters, a child actress named Mimi, is so obnoxious and such a bad actor that she makes the movie practically unwatchable, Such a shame considering this movie had so much imagination behind it.

I hate Mimi she's so rude and annoying, PG or Pandora should've killed her

The little girl's character is so unlikeable it absolutely ruins the movie.

Man. I seriously wanted to love this movie but it failed on it's awesome premise mainly due to the lack of funny dialogue or situations to put the characters in and how flat out annoying it's main character Mimi is. The Good: fun premise, the power rangers-esque costumes, Psycho Goreman's dialogue and back-story sequences. The bad: basically everything else. Why did they add a family drama element? Why did they make the main character so insufferable? No clue. This could be so fun and absurd, instead it's mildly entertaining at best and super annoying time-suck at worst. Watch Turbo Kid or Kung Fury instead.
