'The Monkey' has a great concept and I enjoyed the wacky nature of it, I did almost lose interest in the human characters towards the end though. That isn't the best sign given the short 90 minute run time, but the end does come when desired so that saves it. Theo James is pretty good in this, for sure the most I've liked seeing him. I haven't seen him act much (five films now), my main thought of him is actually with human excrement up his nose (yep) in 'The Inbetweeners Movie'... hopefully this performance will override that memory (it...

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/the-monkey-review-a-chaotic-blend-of-tones-and-genres-that-misses-the-mark/ "The Monkey teeters between ingenuity and frustration. Osgood Perkins crafts moments of inspiration and gets the best out of a solid cast, but the lack of a cohesive identity prevents its erratic blend of tones and genres from reaching its true potential. For some, this chaotic, blood-soaked mix of horror, satire, family drama, and comedy will feel refreshing and daring; for others, it will be simply exasperating and disorienting. Personally, it didn't work... at all." Rating: C-

This takes for ever to get going and once it does, it’s really an unoriginal semi-comedic horror drama centred around yet another not-so-menacing puppet. This time, it’s squabbling brothers “Hal” and “Bill” who discover an old hat box after their father dies and in it is what looks like a toy monkey. They wind it up and next thing, their babysitter is no more and that’s the just the start of it’s malevolence. Putting two and two together, they decide it’s best to drop the thing down a well and get on with growing up. Scoot on years later and...

What a Deliciously Gory and Most Horrific intro to the film, just simple beauty. This has to be the Silliest Horror film I've seen since "Army of Darkness," and I'm assuming the silly "Goosebumps" + Gore will get more creative and intense. A Satisfyingly Hilarious Gory film and a must-see for fans of Comedic Horror.

"The Monkey" is by turns amusing, startling, unexpectedly humorous and unashamedly great fun. It will leave you in a head spinning state of comical disbelief at what you have just witnessed. It is superb how it effortlessly wrecks all manner of havoc and becomes increasingly bizarre and undeniably gross every time the creepy looking cursed monkey toy starts playing its drum. This exhilarating exercise in bad taste will certainly be disagreeable for those people with weak stomachs whereas for the rest of us more hardy souls it is invigorating to watch a film which is so resolutely steadfast in its...
