John W @RT18279564 Sep 28 A film similar to Jeepers Creepers, but not as good. With low expectations, it entertains with some suspense and atmosphere, even if the monster and the story are unfortunately poor. See more Pinoy Short R @emill_santos 05/23/2025 Sayang oras. Umaasa ako sa umpisa na magiging ok ang panunuod ko pero habang tumatagal e nawawalan ng saysay un istorya. Kahit un plot twist sa huli e waley din See more Elvis D @Elvis-Del-Valle 01/30/2025 En los años 2000 ha habido toda una variedad de pelĂ­culas independientes o hechas para video que no tenĂ­an mucho para ofrecer. Reeker es una de estas pelĂ­culas que tampoco es la gran cosa, pero es una pelĂ­cula modesta que al menos tiene originalidad. La historia de los jĂ³venes en el desierto no se diferencia de lo visto en The Hills Have Eyes y las pelĂ­culas slashers clichĂ©s donde un grupo de adolescentes terminan en una mala situaciĂ³n cuando se van de vacaciones. Los personajes desde luego son clichĂ©s, no tienen buenos diĂ¡logos y las actuaciones no son muy creĂ­bles. Lo que si tiene de aceptable es la fotografĂ­a, un ritmo decente y el CGI se ve bien en algunas partes a pesar de ser bastante evidente. La historia es sencilla y pasable, puesto que es una pelĂ­cula de horror normal que tiene un concepto bueno y satisfactorio. Los efectos de maquillaje estĂ¡n muy bien realizados y lo que vale la pena de la pelĂ­cula es su monstruo. La criatura que va tras los personajes es un monstruo bastante original con un buen diseño y una curiosa arma estilo steampunk. La criatura de esta pelĂ­cula tiene bastante potencial y pudo haberse ganado un lugar junto a otras figuras del cine de terror si esta pelĂ­cula hubiese sido hecha con un mejor presupuesto. Lo mejor es el giro argumental que termina siendo una sorpresa inesperada y le da sentido a algunas situaciones que parecen incoherentes. Al principio todo luce clichĂ© y predecible y la escena de un sujeto partido a la mitad que parece seguir vivo no parece tener mucho sentido, pero el giro argumental de la pelĂ­cula compensa bastante todo lo visto. Reeker es una pelĂ­cula bastante olvidada que no deja de ser un producto mediocre, pero su concepto original hace que valga la pena darle una oportunidad. Mi calificaciĂ³n final para esta pelĂ­cula es un 6/10. See more Aaron C @RT40849073 10/21/2024 It's bad, probably should of been a TV film... Effects have aged badly... The acting is below average and the ending isn't clever, it's up there with "it's only a dream" See more Tristen M @Tristen98 02/08/2024 Reeker is a unique and gory addition into the slasher film canon that is gross, creative and entertaining. See more Justin T @RT08580778 06/17/2023 An interesting battle between life and death kicks off in this horror movie. There is nothing original about the style. In fact it is a little cheesy. More specifically, one special effect looks especially tacky. There is little suspense but there are a few good jolts. The story is mostly confusing until it is all revealed at the end. The characters are occasionally funny. Some quality monster and violent effects work well. Overall if you can put up with the lack of originality then this is suitably horrific. It's just a bit middling. See more Read all reviews
