MOVIES VOODOO
Corey Feldman. Oh boy. His acting is horrendous, and so is his choice of movies. Corey plays a college boy who transferred to be close to his girlfriend (everyone sigh ... "awww!"), but he has no place to sleep. So, his girl tries to get him in a fraternity (natch). When the snobby frat guys try to make him eat raw meat, Corey decides he'd rather join a fraternity of the voodoo practicing undead. Alcohol, drugs, tomfoolery, and sacrifices ensue. Corey (do you have to know his character's name? he always plays the same character, anyway, so we'll stick to "Corey") stays with his new frat, despite weird dreams and a crazy old guy wearing a trench coat who snuck into his room to watch him sleep. Soon Corey sees his roommates for what they really are, and of course he then has to save his girlfriend from their evil clutches. The plot is pretty thin, but there were a couple of twists which kept it watchable. The script and acting were deplorable, and we all know how Corey can carry a film! And I don't know who his makeup artist was, but in a few scenes Feldman resembled his good friend Michael Jackson he had so much makeup on. But there were some good aspects - a couple topless girls (even if one of them was dead), some bloody murders, and a grown man playing with a Ken doll. And I learned a few things, like zombies don't like salt in their beer, and by kicking a voodoo doll, you can send a man flying through the air. Would I recommend Voodoo?
Well, if you're a Corey Feldman fan, I'd say ... wait, if you're
a Corey Feldman fan, why don't you do us all a favor and just take your
own life now. (note: the creators and hosters of this website
do not encourage suicide. But if you are a Corey fan, you should
at least seek professional help.)
