Someone is trying to be the next "Yahoo Serious", but not getting there.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Don't get fooled by the summary: It's not that the secret sect hunt demons in
|
|
|
|
|
the internet; the original plot do a flip that is actually pretty smart: demons
|
|
|
|
|
always took the bodies of humans and, in modern days, decided to live in the
|
|
|
|
|
internet. Why I think it is smart? 'Cause they make a pretty good case for
|
|
|
|
|
seeing so much hate online these days.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
But while the initial setting seems pretty good, you can see that it is an
|
|
|
|
|
independent movie when things get shorted in some places. The movie tries to
|
|
|
|
|
make some technobabble of demon hunting, special gear and such, with the lack
|
|
|
|
|
of funding it just looks like some silly costumes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Still, it is quite fun in some parts, and the goofy style -- which the actors
|
|
|
|
|
also seem to grasp and act on it -- make a somewhat nice comedy.
