For those who like their horror sliced up with clever humor, this flick should fit the bill. When a thief with zero luck screws up one heist, he finds himself sent over to Russia to even things out. But when that gig also turns sour, things go from miserable, to horrible, to downright supernatural in a bloodsucking, flesh-eating zombie kind of way. Stephen Dorff stars in this film that took the prize for best feature at the New York City Horror Film Festival and is full of laughs as well as blood.

| BOTCHED is a great idea for a slasher take-off that's been given an uttelry mediocre treatment. It's not awful, but it seldom rises above the so-so. Didn't anyone, for instance, clue the actor who plays the prancing, theatrical villain into how dreadful he is: neither funny, nor scary, nor camp -- just silly and dumb. This is something the director ought to have had a bit of control over. Stephen Dorff gives a nicely measured performance, but he is surrounded by generally less-than-stellar work. If this won the first prize at the NYC Horror Film Fest, what must the competition have looked like? |
