It’s about an ugly, unappealing hypnotist/ventriloquist who shows plenty of eye and lid action. Just a lucky coincidence for me after the last one.
It tries to be really dark and scary. It succeeds at dark, and somewhat creepy – reminiscent of a pretty good, extra-long Twilight Zone episode in a way, although it becomes more tedious and less creepy as it goes along.
Highlights:
the movie itself having a mild interest factor(!?!)
Brit jokes
two-person one-man scene
decent riffing
Inspirational Quote: “Smell it. It has a lovely bouquet.”
Grade: C-
