Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Tombie Stuller I just watched this movie for the second & third time today back to back with the commentary on for the third viewing. I'm GLAD I watched the commentary. I was only going to give it 7 stars. Having learned more about the film listening to the David Lee Madison & Edward X. Young commentary I decided to bump it up to 8. Recently, I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Madisdon at the Wilson College Horror Film Fest in Chambersburg, PA. I attended the festival in support of another locally produced movie which I was involved with called "HogMaul: The Legend of Abrams County". The other movie I was excited for was "Mr. Hush". It didn't disappoint me. What disappoints me is the horrible reviews it got. In my opinion, from start to finish, it is without a doubt, a solid story with pure imagination involved. For Brad Loree's first leading man role, I was impressed. All actors really gave it all they had and then some. David Lee Madison used some very impressive shots in just involving the scenery alone to keep his vision very clean and clear. Mr. Hush has some of the corniest happy family moments I've ever seen to concrete the importance of the tragedies that lie ahead. Also, it is a story I've never seen before. Which is very refreshing. On many levels this film pays true homage to the Horror genre. In just the ending alone, it is easy to see how "tongue-in-cheek" this flick's design is. It is a work of art, people. There is a lot to keep in mind when viewing a film. As, there is a lot to keep in mind when creating one. Hecklers- go make your own damn movie. *prosit* Tombie Stuller p.s. Steve Dash is friggin' hilarious!
Tim Upshaw This movie ( horror) is the worst so called scary movie I have ever seen. If I could give it a 0.5 instead of a 1 I would. It is not scary, and the acting is horrible. I rented it from the video store and returned it and wanted my money back,. I am a horror movie fan, having seen hundreds of scary movies and usually don't write reviews, giving my opinion but this movie was just so bad. It could easily be in the top 10 of worst horror movies ever. It made no sense. As I watched the movie I was hoping that it would get better and a little scary but neither happened, it just got worse. The box cover and the brief summary of the movie is very deceiving, the movie is so bad on many levels. I would never, ever recommend this movie to anyone.
Jason Hignite The first time I saw John Carpenter's "Dark Star", I hated it ... thought it was miserable. That was because I took the film seriously. Once I realized that Carpenter meant for "Dark Star" to be a farce, I got it. David Madison's "Mr. Hush", though not necessarily meant to be a farce, persay, it definitely is not meant to be taken seriously. The intent was not to make a film that fills your mind with terror and dread. He had fun with the 80s-style teen horror film (i.e. Fright Night, Lost Boys, etc.). The drama was overacted, the villain was campy ... that is what Madison emulated. The only difference, and I think this is probably the biggest flaw in the film, he doesn't give the audience a clue. There are other issues that I have ... there are some sound problems, and in a few places the film seems to loose its arc. However, Mr. Hush is very entertaining. It is not meant to scare you ... though, there are definitely moments of suspense. Madison assembled a great cast and put forth a good effort. For an indie film, I liked it. I watch literally dozens of indie horror films per year and write reviews for HorrorHound Magazine. A lot of what I see comes from dedicated horror fans who, unfortunately, don't really understand film. David Madison in NO WAY fits into this category. I look very forward to his next project and recommend "Mr. Hush" for those who enjoy low- budget, indie horror.
suzanpatrick We rented this because it was listed as a "horror" movie. The only thing more horrifying that the movie was the fact that I lost that much time of my life watching it and will never get it back. Every 5 minutes the story line shifts and you're like WTF just happened? The actors seemed like they were in a bad porn film. The story line was awful. The bad guy (Mr. Hush, who is never really revealed as such, but you kinda guess it from watching it) was as cheesy as they come. If this had been more of a "scary movie" type of genre, I could understand it. The makeup at the end was like something you'd see at Party City at Halloween. Low budget. Bad bad bad. I laughed for like 2 hours after watching this, mostly because we were both so angry we had watched it from start to finish! I would seriously like for Redbox to refund my money - it was that bad. In the future I will definitely read the reviews before randomly renting a movie from them.
