See No Evil

Alright, I'm about to out myself here...I'm a fan of WWE wrestling. There I said it and I feel no shame about it, after all there are millions of people all over the world who watch this...let's not call it a sport exactly, but how about athletic exhibition, or sports entertainment, as they call it. I won't get into the debate about whether or not wrestling is a sport or whether or not wrestlers are athletes per se, because that's not what I'm here for. What I'm here for is bad movies, after all it's the whole title of the site! And, what, you might ask, does wrestling have to do with bad movies, well, the WWE recently branched out into the movie business, and it's first release, See No Evil, stars WWE superstar, Kane, and man, if it's a horror movie you're looking for, then you might look somewhere else!



See No Evil is the tale of Jacob Goodnight (Kane), a maniac killer who's escaped and is currently holed up in an abandoned hotel. Well, it just so happens that this particular hotel is being cleaned by a group of juvenile delinquents and they're spending the whole weekend locked into the creepy, dirty place. If you can't see what's coming then you probably haven't seen ANY movies in your life! The kids start disappearing, and eventually they find out that it's Jacob Goodnight, but by then there's only two of them and blah, blah, blah! This is your standard horror flick, there's nothing here to make it stand out from any other generic horror movie.

Kane is very good, but he's really just playing a version of his wrestling character, so it's something he's comfortable with. If you're in the mood for some mindless fright fare, then this might be up your alley, if you're looking for some new sort of movie, then you should look elsewhere!

I'm giving See No Evil one and a half cigars,

because it's just not that good, the sets are great, they've got a pretty cool bad guy, but the end felt contrived and if you didn't see it coming a mile away, then again, this might be the first movie that you're seeing! So, until next time, when I'll be hiding hoping that Kane likes the fact that I liked his performance, I'd hate to be hiding from him for the rest of my life, remember that the best movies are bad movies!
