2hotFeature one of my absolute favorites!
SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
TheLittleSongbird Jolly Roger: Massacre at Cutter's Cove isn't without its redeeming qualities. The strip scenes are amusing, Kristina Korn is easy on the eyes and likable and, although his character is made too much of a wimp at times, the talented Rhett Giles does give a decent performance. Unfortunately, that's the only praise I can give. It is a cheap-looking film, though I've seen cheaper, with dull lighting, very annoyingly slipshod photography and special effects that are so fake and lacking in any finesse or technical value. The music is obvious, unfitting and has nothing memorable. Jolly Roger: Massacre at Cutter's Cove also has some of the most sophomoric dialogue I've heard in recent memory, the story holds no surprises, as we have seen it all before and executed far better, has no atmosphere or nail-biting suspense and is eye-rollingly ridiculous at times too. Some of the scenes are clearly repetitive of others in the film, but clumsily disguised to not make it look so. There are no likable characters, again I don't mind stereotypes and clichés as long as they are written well and interestingly, which Jolly Roger: Massacre at Cutter's Cove failed to do. Jolly Roger is the one character you sort of root for, though Korn does decently with really bad material, the others are obnoxious in the worst sense. There are many killings, but they offer no genuine sense of horror, they're bloody but crude-looking and unoriginal and they are often very randomly placed. The acting is generally awful, Tom Nagel is bland while everybody else, especially in the scene where the Mayor talks to the kids about LeChuck, overacts to the point of utter embarrassment. Korn and Giles are the only two exceptions. All in all, not terrible or the worst movie ever, but it is a good idea to skip this one. 3/10 Bethany Cox
danthewrestlingmanorigin Please do not view a film with a storyline like this, and give some pretentious review on it. It's a killer pirate horror/ comedy, and judged as a killer pirate horror/comedy it's an excellent film. Rhett Giles is hilarious as Jolly Roger, and is very different from his other serious toned Asylum roles like Frankenstein Reborn. The death scenes here are well staged, and Jolly Roger doesn't mess around, racking up a very large body count, mostly by decapitation. You also have plenty of sexy skin scenes, including the drop dead hilarious strip club scene. " Is That A Musket In Your Pocket, or Are You Just Happy To See Me?" is the type of gut busting dialog you can expect. The basic story is actually pretty good here, and with the success of historical period horror films like the excellent Straight Into Darkness, somebody should try to make a serious pirate horror film. If you enjoy tongue in cheek horror like Jack Frost, Santa's Slay, or The Leprechaun series, I can pretty much guarantee you'll enjoy this. Asylum should definitely do a sequel, as this is one of there better efforts.
Phillemos ...And if that's the best thing you can say about this movie, then that pretty much tells you all you need to know. Jolly Roger, a homicidal pirate from the year 1719 or something like that, gets resurrected by some teens drinking and carousing on the beach. He goes on a rampage, kills four of the six teens (the other two escape and become the leads of the movie) and then goes on a decapitation spree in the oceanside village of Cutter's Cove. He's apparently recognized all the people he kills as descendants of people who stole his buried treasure back in the 1700s -- because in today's modern society, everyone's family has lived in the same town for 300 years. And then he goes to a strip joint and kills a stripper and the bouncer. Whatever. His big ruse is that he's green and looks like Kermit the Frog with a pirate's costume and facial hair, so all the people of Cutter's Cove probably laugh themselves into getting decapitated by him. And the movie looks like it was filmed in a two-block area of a depressed fishing community. You know this is a bad movie when SciFi Channel makes it the centerpiece of its Saturday night lineup, but doesn't re-run it at 1 a.m. like it does most Saturday night features. I'm giving it a 2 only because Jolly Roger switched things up and amputated the strip joint bouncer's arm, then bludgeoned the guy to death with it -- a nice change of pace from the usual decapitations and a rather entertaining scene all the way around.
eRiKa77 This movie was so bad! The gore was pretty cheesy, the acting was terrible - every time someone was killed, we busted out laughing at how horrible it was! I agree with the other poster tho - the strip club scene was pretty amusing. However, it was a like a train-wreck, we couldn't stop watching it. I gave it a 4 only because we laughed and enjoyed ourselves making fun of it. The ending was pretty dorky and sort of set it up for another movie (god help us). The commentaries/making of were funny too - they spoke like they were making this million dollar blockbuster and talked about how great the special effects were (they weren't, trust me). Overall, a good movie to watch when you have nothing better to do and want to laugh at something campy.
