| Now this type of thing
doesn't happen so often. What I mean is we get a horror comedy that
is actually good. And good isn't even a good enough word to describe
this movie. There is more comedy than horror in Bubba Ho-Tep. But
that's ok, because the comedy is hilarious. Bruce Campbell is a
comedic genius. He also plays Elvis brilliantly. Even if Elvis
is an old timer. Ossie Davis delivers and outstanding performance,
as a crazy old black man who thinks that he is JFK. I mean he really
made me believe that he thought he was JFK, that's how good he was.
Don Coscarelli does an amazing job in the director's chair. He
has a talent for bringing the story to life. I love his style and
overall vision for this movie. Its great, and he knows how to bring
out the comedian in Bruce Campbell.
There isn't really very much else to say except that you must see this
movie. With it's strange plot, and a great performance by both Bruce
Campbell and Ossie Davis, it is sure to please. |
