“Iu0026#39;ve been holding this DVD now for about a month and a half, and I kept putting it off. For the sole reason, I hear so much u0026quot;It sucksu0026quot;, and u0026quot;Itu0026#39;s greatu0026quot; talk. Well, Iu0026#39;m going with the latter. I didnu0026#39;t think it was great…but I did find it to be pretty damn good.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMovie is about a family that inherits a castle that has a secret. That secret being a Castle Freak. A Castle Freak you say? Yup. After his u0026quot;caretakeru0026quot; sh!ts the bed, poor ole C.F. is left alone. Luckily for him, Jeffrey Coombs and his family (hot mom and hot blind daughter, by the way, say no more) inherit this mammoth castle. Eventually C.F. gets loose and unfortunately he doesnu0026#39;t know how to control himself. You tend to feel bad for C.F. in the movie, so when he does kill (spoiler maybe?….shut up!) you really donu0026#39;t care. But I connected and cared for him most was when he had trouble with members of the opposite sex. Definitely the top scenes of this flick. The acting was surprisingly efficient. You have B movie actor extrodinaire Jeffrey Coombs play the dad in a really great role. I was expecting his trademark expressions, but instead of the close ups, they focused more on his tone of voice and the scene. Which really helped the film and acting. The others all played the roles very well, no complaints. If youu0026#39;re complaining about this movieu0026#39;s acting you need your head checked….itu0026#39;s a Direct-to-Video film. It was definitely a surprise to me….and most likely itu0026#39;ll be a surprise to you….the horror fan.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI give it around a 7 1/2…..like I said it wasnu0026#39;t great. But damn, the movie was unique, fun, sometimes creepy and overall a welcome edition to the land of HORROR! AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
