Don't Look in the Basement!

One in a long line of schlocky films with "Don't" in the title. This ticks all sorts of cheap indie horror boxes, particularly some shoddy violence and scenes of oddballs yelling at each other. The central conceit is actually pretty interesting, but the film is too cheap and clumsily assembled that it can't deliver on what potential it might have had.

Starts off well and has a good story and setting but the pacing is really bad and the whole thing really drags. The acting is okay at best with most of the cast were over acting as much as possible.

Video bleh-stie.

Holotik is pleasing to the eye, but she has no more acting ability than a turnip. You'll also meet Wavy Gravy's grandma and a guy who looks like a demented Ralph Malph. Not sure what the heck all this is about...but then, it was the 70s.

This movie attempts to be disturbing and creepy, but fails miserably. Most of the film is hilarious in a really awful way, and the movie was really really really low budget. Random events occur for almost no reason, and there aspects of the movie that could be considered racist even by 1950s standards. Oh and the main character doesn't even go into the basement until near the end! False advertising, man.

Rubbish.
