Overrated and overhyped

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

I recently purchased this film on DVD after watching the "Cinema Snob" review of it. I watched it, and, to be completely honest, I feel a lot of the criticism this film has received is unjust. Sure, this film is no "Citizen Kane", and its shot on the worst possible format, but I think this is a fun little movie. The plot revolves around a man named "Hasaan" who shoots a snuff film on equipment rented from a local video store, then returns the equipment to the store without remembering to take the tape out of the camera (the daft idiot). The rest of the plot revolves around Hasaan trying to cover up the event and the video store's slacker employee, Joe, trying to figure out the mystery of what is going on. A no-budget film shot by a guy and his friends and released by a no-name video distributor, this film is a cheesy and campy exercise in the "Shot On Video" craze that plagued video stores in the 80's and 90's. The people who made this film obviously weren't trying to make a serious production, and because of this fact, some of the film's more noticeable flaws can be overlooked. "The Bloody Video Horror That Made Me Puke On My Aunt Gertrude" is one of the most entertaining and ambitious productions I've seen thus far in the SOV genre, and one that, if nothing else, can be appreciated solely because of the fact that the people who made this film were obviously striving to make an entertaining production, even though they had some limitations and flaws in the film while doing so. I highly recommend this film to anyone who is a horror fan or a lover of cheesy SOV schlock.

Plot: A gangster shoots a snuff movie with a rented camera, but accidentally returns it with the tape still inside.---- Y'know, for a movie that calls itself "Bloody Video Horror", there was very little blood and very little horror. We don't even get to see the "blood video horror" itself which is sad. It's not like with Snuff where we see the violence, we just get a reaction shot.I don't think we even hear the name of the lead either. I think his name is Jim, but I could be wrong since the audio is so janky at times that it's almost impossible to make out full sentences. That's a problem with a lot of SOVs. They normally don't have the budget for a good boom mic, even though it's visible in at least two shots. During the police interrogation scenes, it's like they have a spotlight above the camera because there's this annoying white light that's just fixated. It's so abnormal and on top of the audio being very weird, it makes the scenes difficult to watch.The acting....it could be better, but I've seen much worse. It's not 555 good, but it's not on the level of Criminally Insane or Death Nurse. It's lacking quite a bit, I'll say that much. But of course, what can you genuinely expect from an SOV anymore? One other thing I noticed when I was watching this is that there's no ending credits. We just get "The End" title card and then it just shows previews for other low budget movies or SOVs. So with that said, I have no idea who the characters are and I had to go to IMDb only to find the actors and a void next to their name. So if you come across this, you better have your listening ears on or you'll miss names easily.I'm very disappointed with this. But of course, what else did I expect from a movie with a title like this? If you're a fan of SOVs, don't waste your time. Despite the plot being interesting, it's not worth your time. The other movies it tried to promote after it ended don't look that great either to be perfectly honest (Ghoul School, Savage Harvest & Kingdom of the Vampire).
