Grim Reaper (2007) review

Posted : 11 years, 4 months ago on 6 January 2013 08:50

The beginning was a tad foggy as to what was going on. The storyline became clearer as Rachel woke up in the mental hospital. I wish the characters at the hospital had been fleshed out more. There was potential for you to care if they died or not and that didn't happen.
The end of how Rachel gets out alive (or not) seemed lame at wrapping the whole grim reaper thing up.
Great ending moment though.

Grim Reaper (2007) review

Posted : 13 years, 7 months ago on 26 September 2010 09:33

In Grim Reaper, a terror movie from director Michael Feifer, Cherish Lee plays Rachel, a surviving victim from a car crash stalked by the Grim Reaper himself who feels she should have died. In the hospital, Rachel tries to convince the staff that Death is hunting for her. Thinking her nuts, Rachel is committed to a mental health facility, where she finds herself with other inmates that have also cheated death. That night, the Grim Reaper comes for them. The movie is full of the usual terror clichรฉs and formulas, where common sense is absent. It is a sloppy hash of a movie, poorly directed and plotted in a way that looks as if it were improvised on the spot. Feifer, who has produced over 30 independent films, could have done a better job staying closer to reality, than trying to frighten his audience at every turn. Grim Reaper feels like one cheap shot after another. Even the film's target audiences (terror junkies) are probably going to bail on this one.
