Sorry, this movie sucks
Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
DEVIL FETUS is a Hong Kong horror yarn very much in the mould of the films made by Shaw Brothers such as BLACK MAGIC, MO, and the like. It was produced by Lo Wei, the guy who once directed Bruce Lee in the likes of THE BIG BOSS and its ilk a decade beforehand. The film is lower budgeted than Shaw additions to the genre, but still manages to pack a great deal of ickiness into the running time, even if the titular spirit doesn't appear much.The story is about the purchase of an antique vase that releases an evil demonic spirit that impregnates a young woman before killing her. The spirit emerges from her stomach before being captured and subdued by a Taoist priest for a decade or so until an unfortunate accident sees it released to attack the woman's family members. Initially a dog is possessed before the spirit enters the body of a young man and all hell breaks loose from there.Films like DEVIL FETUS are quite predictable and tend to borrow the majority of their scares from Hollywood hits like POLTERGEIST and THE ENTITY while adding a distinctly Asian vibe all of their own and this is no exception. The cast give nondescript performances and the direction is nothing special, but there's a high level of cheesy special effects mixed with the odd bit of unpalatable animal cruelty (a German Shepherd and an eagle being ill served by this film's plot). Expect flying beds, apparitions, nudity, the vomiting of worms, and an outlandish climax packed full of supernatural mayhem. It's lowbrow stuff, but sure to delight horror fans regardless.
Hey pygmies it is I back again with another titillating....tit.....hehe.....review for you. Well up to this point you have seen a lot of positive reviews from me and are probably thinking "this guy thinks everything is good" well your in luck because we are about to buck the trend with this film Devil Fetus.Title sounds cool right and the story to a point, is about a women impregnated by a demon complete with demon hump scene. Now your thinking monsters and sex GREAT...WRONG BIG TIME. Here is the skinny in a nutshell. Women buys a Jade Statue which carries a demon inside of it, women uses Statue as a sexual gratification devise, demon pops out, gives her a pounding,impregnates her then kills her and her husband. At the womens funeral the priests see that the womens stomach is swelling like a turkey on Thanksgiving, the beast comes out of her stomach and the priests seal it in the womens coffin.Time passes and the womens two nephews who were very young at the death of their aunt have become strapping young men who always say "mom" or "mommy" every other word. The oldest gets the hots for a family friend and takes her to see the grandmother who has been trying to help keep the evil forces surrounding the deaths at bay. They go into the room were his aunt who was freaking the demon and his uncle died. Inside the room is a monument to their deaths that is not to be messed with, guess what ...they mess with it.From there all sorts of weird shiznit happens, a dog gets possessed and tries to get some up skirt action on a women who is already making out with a guy, the younger brother gets possessed starts eating on the family dog and starts a brief cross dressing masturbation spree complete with cut away coke can opening sequence to imply that his load has been blown and a crazy Japanesse early 80's synthesized disco party where everyone dances like they are having grandma seizures (and they are not possessed). This all leads to a laser light show so trippy it would make Kiss meets the Phantom of the Park look like a ground breaking tour de force and a really goofy fight scene with the demon and the older brother at the end for good measure.You may say at this point it sounds like cheesy fun....its not. In fact this was nearly unwatchable. I've seen tons of "so bad there goods" but this is "so bad it makes me want to gouge out my eyes with a rusty nail". The sad thing is even if this movie tried to ham it up it still would blow harder than Pam Anderson on Tommy Lee. How about gore you ask, well there is a few scenes (guys head gets crushed was the best) but nothing that I haven't seen down 20 times better in other movies and really there is not a whole lot to write home about anyway. Even if there was mounds of blood the way this movie played out it still would not have helped.As you can see this movie has scarred me from its horrible effects to its crappy story which really could have been wrote by a 10th generation inbred with no arms of legs (think about it), it serves as a poster child that not all J-Horror is good, in fact some is down right horrible. Decent start, horrible and boring middle with a painfully bad ending make this a film that every copy in the world should be gathered together for a mass burning with free clinics for people to help get through the traumatic experience of watching it.2/10 Painfully bad in a bad way. Someone should have aborted this Fetus before it popped out in the theaters.At this time there is no DVD release (THANK GOD) of this film. I was warned by my friend who let me borrow this but I thought it will be a cheesy fun monster fest like a lot of you are thinking right now. Please avoid like the plague you will thank me for it.
The plot of this movie doesn't make a great deal of sense. Part of the problem is that the subtitles on the print I saw were very small, (the VCD that I have is a widescreen print with the subtitles from the actual film itself so they end up being very tiny). Another part of the problem is that this movie wouldn't make sense under the best of circumstances.It all begins when two women buy a vase at an auction. The younger of the women takes it home and becomes "possesed" by it. What this means is that a big ugly monster comes out and has sex with her and changes her personality so as to be obsessed with the vase. One night hubby comes home and sees his wife with the monster and is killed by the beast. The wife, now pregnant soon gives birth to a mini monster and dies. The mini monster is caught and then things get less clear. (Thats about the first 12 minutes of screen time.) From here the "monster" jumps from body to body killing people and eating dead bodies, he keeps under a bed.I can't really tell you much more about the plot than that, except that the movie has several great set pieces mainly battles with the monster in human form, one with a priest who uses mini statues and the final one in the cellar of a house (That one had me murmuring "oh s#&%" a couple of times). There are numerous gore effects and moments of gross out horror. Best of all at times the movie achieves a wonderful nirvana when you're sitting there with a combination of being grossed out, a desire to laugh at the cheesiness of the visuals and a deep admiration at a film that is over coming everything to have a "really cool" moment.Understand, though, this is a mess of a film. It doesn't really come together well. There is the slenderest of threads keeping it all together (and it could be argued its not very together). The strength of the movie is its parts, the set pieces and gross out horror bits, this is the reason to see the movie and not for any hope of a clear plot. As a whole this film is really probably a 7 or 6.5 so giving it an 8 I'm over selling it on the basis of its parts, but I was really impressed by the parts. If you like gory horror and don't mind a lack of sense try it.
Coming across as a manic and unholy mix of 'The exorcist', 'Amityville horror', 'Plan 9 from outer space', 'Evil dead', 'Poltergeist', 'War of the gargantuas' and Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' video with a single-digit budget, this brilliant and idiotic Hong Kong flick keeps the freak-outs coming fast and furious throughout. Acting is non-existent and the, uh..."minimal" plot apparently exists only to provide a framework in which to present gratuitous scenes of worm-vomiting, demonic possession, decapitation and nubile starlets making congress with giant, grunting, slimey green Sasquatch-looking monsters. Generally pointless film features some of the worst special effects ever seen but is never less than massively entertaining-- by no means miss the opportunity to catch this on a big screen, as I was fortunate enough to last night!
