Otis has everything he needs for the prom...The cool 80s tunes, the bitchin' Trans Am, the powder blue suit, and the girl shackled to a bed in his basement.
Maybe I am more twisted than I thought, but I loved this movie. It is a dark, disturbing, very funny, and just plain wrong...( read more)
A dark comedy with the emphasis on "dark". This is a film that starts out violent and brutal and then tries to make you laugh. The underlying premise is "the lighter side of abduction, rape and murder" and, not surprisingly, it just doesn't work.
It's a good attempt and helluva lot better than your average horror fare, but it can't compete with other horror satires.

It may have worked for 'From Dusk Till Dawn' but changing genres midway (from thriller to black comedy in this case) does not work at all here.
It's still hard to believe that Ashley Johnson was the little girl in Growing Pains.
Sheesh I'm old.
A great Horror / Comedy Film. Had many laughs, not a halloween Movie just a good ole friday night horror flix, add it to the collection.
I'd read so many favorable reviews elsewhere on OTIS that I was prepared to enjoy a nice, twisted black comedy--prehaps something along the lines of SHAUN OF THE DEAD or even (dare I hope?) RE-ANIMATOR, but sadly I was doomed to disappointment for OTIS fails to be anything other ...( read more)
A dark comedy that took me awhile before I was actually enjoying it. Very few comedic moments but it had its fair share of funnies.
i really like this, it was extremely weird and different. a breath of fresh air with all of the damn horror remakes happening lately.
I'm usually not into these kinds of movies, but this one looks really good.
No recent reviews.
Started out kinda creepy but took a turn for the downright goofy towards the end.
