Micitype Pretty Good
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
dbs630-697-952794 The movie starts out with what appears to be a "hazing" of a sorority but turns out to be a bunch of co-workers who apparently have some sort of cult based on a former patient dubbed "Bloody Mary" who apparently isn't really dead or is dead but haunts the place? Nobody really knows as this isn't really established. The story is weak and not told very well however the acting wasn't too terribly bad and the editing was solid. Some of the visual effects were done well and the location was creepy. At least some of the actresses get naked, that was a distraction from the horribly explained story. Great for a six pack and late night of TV!
MetalGeek I'd never even heard of "Bloody Mary" till I recently picked up a 4-movie "Horror Collection" DVD that included it along with three other B-Movie wonders for the low, low price of only $5.99. I figured even if only one of the movies on the DVD was any good, then it was worth the money. Well, unfortunately "Bloody Mary" was not very good. It had the potential to be a cool, compact, creepy little ghost story but eventually fell apart due to a blend of bad acting and a confused script that tries to cram in too many unneeded elements into the final act. "Bloody Mary" is more or less a bad blend of bits borrowed from numerous (better) movies, including "Candyman," "The Ring," "I Know What You Did Last Summer," and what the hell, even "Heathers!" Our story begins at a State Psychiatric Hospital, where a group of young nursing students dare one of their group to play "the Mirror Game," in which you descend into the dark tunnels beneath the building, go to a dark room with a mirror in it, and summon the legendary "Bloody Mary," (some sort of malevolent witch/spirit), with the repeated chant "I believe in Bloody Mary, I believe in Bloody Mary." The girl obediently goes down there and performs the ritual, but something unseen snatches her away before she can come back out again. Needless to say, the others have to cover it up and pretend nothing ever happened. We will learn later on that this not the first time they've had to do this; a previous participant in "the game" has gone from being a nurse to a patient in the hospital, after suffering a complete mental breakdown.Eventually the missing girl's sister, a true crime writer/reporter, comes to the hospital and starts poking around, much to the "Mean Girls'" chagrin. She eventually gets to the bottom of the urban legend surrounding "Bloody Mary," but not before a few more people end up victimized and killed by the vengeful spirit. Somewhere in the mix we are introduced to a mysterious, Hannibal Lecter type prisoner who's kept chained up in the bowels of the hospital and seems to be "in on" the Bloody Mary business with the nurses, though who he is and how exactly he fits into the story is never really made clear. For that matter, we never learn exactly what the nurses were hoping to gain by messing with "Bloody Mary" in the first place, either. Oh, and as an extra bonus there's a doctor in the hospital who seems nice enough till he reveals his true self late in the movie, but his subplot has no apparent connection to the rest of the story, therefore the "revelation" comes out of nowhere and makes little sense. Seriously, this movie has way too much going on and it definitely could've used a better editor and/or a continuity guy!! On the "pro" side, even though most of the girls in "Bloody Mary" can't act worth a lick, they're all quite attractive and spend quite a bit of time in various states of undress, which quite frankly was about the only thing keeping me interested as the film became more convoluted. There's a few decent dollops of gore and some nice spooky atmosphere in the "tunnel" scenes, but overall the movie suffers from a cheap, shot-on-video look that gives it the feel of a made-for-TV movie."Bloody Mary" is not quite bad enough to be total crap, but not quite good enough to be a passable horror entry either. Worth a look if it turns up on late night TV as long as you keep your expectations low.
disdressed12 i guess this movie is OK.it isn't scary,but it does have a creepiness vibe going at times.it's low budget,and it has a gritty look to it.there's not a lot of realism in this movie.by that,i don't mean the supernatural ghostly aspect,because of course that is far fetched(at least i hope so).rather,the lack of realism is in how the characters behave.it just doesn't ring true.at least,i don't think so.i didn't find a problem with the acting.i mean,it wasn't stellar,but i've seen a lot worse.if you're a gore hound,this movie should satisfy you.there's lots of blood,though the movie isn't as graphic as it could have been.there's a fair amount of nudity,some of it pointless.well,all of it, really.and if you're looking for originality,you might want to look elsewhere.this movie has been done before,and the setting is nothing new.overall,i guess i'm indifferent to the movie.as a result,i give Bloody Mary a 5/10
demyanov.fury2207 Bloody Mary (2006)easily the best horror film in the last couple of years. no hype around it, fraction of a decent budget, but truly scary and definitely outperforming bigger budget features of the recent releases. not necessarily very original in the choice of monster/scare factor, the film has plenty of little terrifying things that will make you jump up in your seat quite a few times. solid cast (thankgawd no familiar faces), confident directing, decent and justified editing, good soundtrack - overall I just loved it, may even watch it again and absolutely recommend it to any fans of the genre.respect to the makers. we need more stuff like this - done professionally.
