Review: Dylan Dog, Dead of Night

I remember seeing this movie at my work. I really wish I would of bought it when I saw it. I freakin' loved this movie! I was surprised at how much I really liked it. The movie follows a man named Dylan Dog, a private investigator. Before he was scoping out cheating husbands with his job and partner Marcus. He was a Supernatural protector. He meets a lady by the name of Elizabeth asking him about that job once she found his business card in her father's room after his murder. It reads "No pulse? No problem." He tried to explain to her that he wasn't involved in that line of work anymore. Not after his girlfriend was murdered.

Once his partner was killed and turned into a zombie, he decided to get back to his original horror roots. One of her father's symbolic artifacts were stolen the night he was murdered. Now it's up to Dylan, Marcus and Elizabeth to find the artifact before it falls into the wrong hands and it unleashes terror beyond their comprehension.

This movie was down right amazing. Everything about it was awesome. The music, the fight scenes, even the script was wonderful. "I look like a dead hooker!" This movie didn't get a huge theater release and it's not very well known but I loved every single minute of it. It's a fun campy "horror" movie. It's not full on horror but it falls under the category with the story line. I highly suggest this movie and think it's a super fun watch.

It also has some pretty funny parts in it. What I like about this movie is that the comedy part of it didn't kill the whole entire movie. There are a lot of horror movies out there that the screenwriter decides to make it a horror comedy and it never works. Drag Me To Hell is a perfect example. I understand that's part of Sam Raimi's charm but that movie didn't do anything for me. It was so STUPID. I don't think it had the same feel as the Evil Dead did as everyone thinks.  This movie on the other hand did a great job mixing the two genres together. I approve! ;)

I give this movie 5 out of 5 Skulls.
