Some of the competent independent horror filmmakers, who a few years ago were great hopes for the genre, have been ruined by the mainstream and their latest or upcoming films are no longer reason to be happy (a typical example is Adam Wingard), but Adam Green has dived into the shit without any help, and he didn’t need any commerce for that. With this hopeless reboot, Degen Crowley has exactly three films more than necessary. Congratulations. The latest addition to the series lacks interesting ideas, lacks a script, lacks effective humour, lacks well-made gore, lacks actors and, last but not least, doesn’t even have the production values that would at least make it nice to look at. Crap all around.

The fabulous pre-credit sequence sets the bar damn high in terms of escalation and, primarily, the combination of bloodletting, gore and humor. It is a pity that it is followed by a terribly average film that will probably be enjoyed more by fans of the series than by casual viewers. Furthermore, the rest of the film has a different budget and level of craftsmanship than the opening sequence, to the point that it looks like someone else shot the opening scene. Or it was a proof-of-concept that was intended to attract investors, but not much money was raised in the end, so the filmmakers had to work in conditions other than what they had planned. After all, the rest of the film contains no spectacular splatstick such as that seen in the opening sequence.

The American horror Victor Crowley is, in my opinion, a downfall in the franchise and it doesn't help that Adam Green has some traditionally good masks and gore. Yet this time I didn't find the gore to be very imaginative and it felt more like the film was treading water. As nice as it is that Green chose to conceptualize the film in static terms, it's really just a matter of killing sitting ducks, which is as boring as the rest of the film.
