Boring and stupid
20 February 2010
Snopp Dogg plays HOH (Hound of Hell) and relates three stories that describes how certain people ended up in hell. Unfortunately the viewer is forced to watch. The first has a headstrong young black girl determined to stop all gang members after witnessing her mother's murder. She gains a mystical power to kill people (don't ask) but the tale has a "tragic" and ridiculously pointless ending. The second has an obnoxious southern boy (well played by Anson Mount) who basically takes advantage of three elderly black war vets who are his tenants. You'll see the ending coming a mile away. The third I had trouble concentrating on. I was so bored I kept falling asleep! Something about a rapper paying for something wrong he did...or something. I really didn't care.

The stories are dull--totally predictable and never even remotely scary. The dialogue just consists of actors swearing as much as possible in between dull stretches of exposition (if you can call it that). Also there are animated sequences introducing the film and in between the stories. They're somewhat interesting--but the animation is lousy. Dogg, as our host, is irritating and dull. In fact he's downright boring! He's so bad it makes you appreciate his "singing" more! The actors are, for the most part, not bad (Mount and Ernie Hudson are the best) but they're defeated by boring stories and dialogue. Even the gratuitous blood and gore isn't good! This bombed and disappeared quickly. Hopefully it will be a loooonnnggggg time before Dogg makes another horror film! Bottom of the barrel here. A 1.
