Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
I have to admit I've seen some car crashes of movies in my time; this is one hell of a motorway pileup... There is absolutely nothing redeeming about this movie at all. If you insist on watching it still, then just for the gore - there's plenty of it - and don't get me wrong, I'm a gore fan, but it is just so poorly executed. Think of this more as a guide of how not to make a film.
i wouldn't even rate this movie 1/10 its that bad, unfortunately i have to rate it 1/10 on here but seriously its an easy 0/10 from me, only movies that are as bad as this are, Hellinger, Legend Of Harrow Woods, Dead Matter & Nazi Zombies.i am a serious horror fan and movie reviewer however i really cant be bothered to write a serious review for this as it was offensive nonsense.if you bother to really watch it then good luck.but don't say i didn't warn you.0/10
I never write reviews but seeing as people connected to the film and the god awful company that made it 101 seem to be writing reviews saying its a classic i thought i better. I am a massive lover of horror films from Bad Taste to Nightmare on Elm street Halloween to The Burning. I don't care if the acting isn't world class in a horror don't mind to much if the story is rubbish its all about the atmosphere the scares the bad guy etc etc. This film is tragic the guy trying to cop a feel and the way that whole scene plays out is retarded its like a PG movie 'oooh i wanna touch your tits' 'no don't touch me' on and on bla bla bla. filmed in the style and with the budget of a porn i put the DVD straight in the bin after i watched it (no joke) If you wanna watch a good low budget horror there is loads. Bad Taste Halloween etc etc these films prove you don't need a big budget to make a film work. In conclusion there is no reason in the world to watch this film if it was a matter of life and death id happily get my coat and say my goodbyes. Hope this saves you some trouble Laterzzzzz
I read a critic's review about Deadly Detour where the reviewer referred to it as "Slasher Porn at it's finest" and after seeing the movie I have to say that I couldn't agree with that statement more. If you get off on slasher flicks then you should blow your load watching this. It has blood, gore, violence, sex... the works. Is it a good movie? I won't lie to you, it's not. It has problems with sound, a couple of continuity issues, and some scenes that didn't make sense at all. What Deadly Detour is, though, is an excellent first attempt at film-making by Mike O'Mahony, a talented writer and director who shows that he may very well be going places. While some aspects of the film didn't work, other aspects worked very well. There were some shots that looked studio quality, the humor was spot on (the 'Want Some?' scene is classic), and the over the top in your face violence was exactly what you'd expect. Actually, there's a bus scene at the end of the movie that is way MORE than you'd expect, but to me it makes the whole thing worthwhile. And while the acting was far from Oscar worthy, keep in mind that these are not experienced actors and the film was shot on a shoestring. One standout is James Costa as Zach, who seemed to be channeling John Belushi. Erich Ficke also did an excellent job as The Goatman. I'm not really sure WHY he was called the Goatman when he didn't really look like a goat at all but more like a deformed psychopath, but I believe that it ties into an old urban legend in Maryland which is where the film supposedly takes place. While I wish the mask had more expression, Ficke commanded the character with an imposing presence. He's a big guy, and I can see him taking up the mantle of Jason Voorhees one day. Thumbs ups also go to Stacey Hartman as Jenna for being super hot and Julie Ann Hamolko for being hot in a Zooey Deschanel sort of way. Hamolko shows she's got some acting chops as well and I look forward to seeing her again. And lastly, Fred Ficke, Erich Ficke's real life father, steals the show with his cameo as the doomed bus driver of that final scene. All in all, Deadly Detour is a great first try, it could very well become an underground classic, and I look forward to future films from Maniac Films.
