Deadtectives

Horror with comedy is a great but delicate subject, if you miss the point you might end up making fun into a dull and boredom show. This one gave some respect to both the genres be it horror with good jump scares or comedy mixed in it. A good one time watch.

I got to see this movie during the Seattle International Film Festival. I had no idea what to expect since this movie didn't even have a trailer yet. My expectations were low but I was pleasantly surprised.

The whole haunted house plot has been done countless times before but the execution is so perfect that gives the movie a sense of originality. Also this movie is genuinely funny! My theater burst into laughter many times and there are lot of memorable lines in the script. The great pacing is one of the main factors that makes this movie quite entertaining from start to finish.

I don't know who Tony West is but this debut feature shows he has potential and I'll be interested to watch his next movie. I only knew Chris Geere out of the cast beforehand but everyone does an exceptional job in performing.

Plot: 5/10 Screenplay and dialogue: 8/10 Acting: 8/10 Cinematography: 7/10 Effects: 7/10 Pacing: 9/10 Overall: 7.3/10 - Highly Recommended!

This was a fun movie. Story was alright, some funny scenes, fine acting. I thought it was a cross between the Frighteners and Ghostbusters. Definitely a movie I'd watch again.

Fully enjoyed this movie. A few laugh out moments and im sure a new catchphrase in the making ( made a few modifications). Be nice to see a sequal or better still TV series of Deadtectives.

I had a good time watching this. I love horror comedy, and the balance it had between the two was pretty great.

The set up really lead to some good comedy moments, because at the beginning they are faking the ghost encounters. So they don't realise its really when things first go down, and that really works. It was fun. The characters were pretty great, and I really enjoyed the overall story.
