Perkins' 14 (2009)
4/10
14-10= Bad Perkins
9 March 2022
While watching this B grade dreck, with puts the B in B grade, P14, felt like so many other over gore-tesque, horrors I've seen in the last 15 years. It's like I've seen it, all before, as in it's painful predictability, sick schlock, mediocre acting, stereotypical teen traits of it's boy/girl characters, atmospheres. Ignoring forewarnings from Daddy, what not. And if I can say this, nasty predictable endings. The story intrigued me, but I expected much more smarts, craftiness from it, instead of a flat mediocre utilization. Think Disturbing Behavior, Island Of Dr Moreau as "learn from", bettering examples of how it could of been done. Two much better players, separated from the average performers, go to O'Kane, and especially Brake-our screwed up Perkins, who has quite a sick hobby, but he is unforgettably creepy, and it's a great standout performance.. O'Kane's cop character is rather interesting, a kind of tough nut to figure. The movie is very engrossing, and picked up in the last 20 minutes, in terms of quality. All in all, it's prety slap dash. B quality, shining right through from the start. Pity, as P14 could of been so much more.
