The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Hisss (2010)

Starring: Mallika Sherawat, Jeff Doucette
Director: Jennifer Lynch

Premise:
In an attempt to cure his brain cancer an American kidnaps the lover of the snake god, hoping its mate will grant him immortality.

My Take:
The movie comes off looking like a SyFy movie of the week. Horrible CGI and lots of overacting and movie which doesn't know if it wants to cater to an American audience or an Indian one. I expected more from Jennifer Lynch especially with a cool legend for a story premise.
The one saving grace is the beautiful Mallika Sherawat is very easy on the eyes.

Rating: Warning
