The gore is great. The rest of the film is not

I was very impressed with the gore in the film, and there are some fun scenes, but everything that doesn't involve the killers is boring as hell. All of these characters are flatly written and acted with only the seasoned actors standing out.

The gore is the real star of the show and it is not disappoiting. There is a scene where two of the killers play tik tak toe on one of their victims. There is also a very impressive decapitation with one of the most realistic fake heads I have ever seen.

In the end, I am not mad I went to see it. I wish the film had been better but the gore does help you get through all of the other stuff.

Stream: It's Early 2000s, Feels Dated but Delivers the Chops!

"Stream" (2024) by Michael Leavey, follows many early 2000s film's exploring cyber bullying, cyber stalking, dark web, etc. At one point one could even say it follows a particular Halloween sequel with elements of live broadcast situation or "Reality TV", a dated idea as seen in "Halloween Resurrection" (2002). Others from early 2000s internet-based horror genre from "Feardotcom" and "Friend Request". And not so recent films exploring on/offline violence/stalking: "Megan is Missing" and "Ratter".

Nonetheless "gorehounds" (to refer a dated term) will feel satisfied with a lot of practical gore, provided by "Terrifier" special effects person: Damian Leone. So far - many are talking about the infamous scene of "Noughts and Crosses" game.

It's jam-packed with 80s/80s cult and horror iconic actors: Dee Wallace ("Cujo" and "Howling"), Tony Todd ("Candyman"), Terry Alexander ("Day of the Dead"), Danielle Harris ("Halloween 5"), Felissa Rose ("Sleepaway Camp"), etc. Most of them have small, or comedic cameo roles but shine during their onscreen moment.

Jeffrey Combs from the "Reanimator" franchise is amongst the film's main cast. The story surrounds a remote hotel which becomes a battleground, fight for survival, all online bets placed on the table. Combs character here is full of camp behaviour much like his past "Reanimator" character. One the most surprising cameo is by the famed "Rocky Horror Picture Show" Tim Curry!

If you should support indie cinema on the Big Screen - see film at its current special theater release. I will assumed most viewers will be from horror/cult genre communities, this film won't disappoint with its ultra violence. There's talk about "Stream" sequels to be discussed.

This film is not complete - it does lack needed exposition in its 2-hour long story, would have helped with understanding the terror felt via bad acting from other cast members. Maybe future "Stream" productions can help with the huge gaps with this first one.

Mid Stream.

In Stream, Danielle Harris plays the mother of a 16-year-old girl - that makes me feel very old! Harris is just one of the many horror icons that appear in this gory throwback to when horror didn't feel the need to be 'elevated' - just fun. And it almost succeeds. Almost.

The film takes place in a hotel, where the Keenans - father Roy (Charles Edwin Powell), mother Elaine (Harris), daughter Taylor (Sydney Malakeh) and son Kevin (Wesley Holloway) - have decided to take a family break. Unfortunately, the building has been chosen by an underground organisation as the latest location for an online game of murder, the hotel guests stalked and killed by masked maniacs, with the whole thing streamed live for the enjoyment of gambling sickos.

Director Michael Leavy is clearly aiming for the same level of success enjoyed by his pal Damien Leone (director of the Terrifier movies), even to the point of casting Art the Clown himself, David Howard Thornton, as one of the killers. Leone provides the splattery effects, so gorehounds are well catered for, but what lets the film down are the weak script, which is full of plot holes, the performances, an overlong runtime (at just over two hours), and the generic killers, which reminded me of The Purge and The Strangers, amongst others.

If you're in it for the gore and the cameos (which include Dee Wallace, Felissa Rose, Tony Todd, Bill Moseley and Tim Curry), then you won't be disappointed, but considering the talent involved, I had hoped for the film to be much better overall.
