okay, so there is this movie called on right now Demon Island. The alternate title for this amazing work of art is Piñata: Survival Island. The basic plot is that sorority and fraternity members from a college go to an island to compete in a bunch of contests and win glory for their group. One of the events is to find a bunch of piñatas in the woods and crack them open to find what is inside. Unfortunately, it turns out one of them that was already hidden in the woods for some reason was housing a demon, which they released by cracking it open. Thus, the demon is wandering around the woods killing students as he finds them. With me so far?
Sample line: "Okay guys, I mean, do you seriously think there is a killer piñata wandering around the woods?"
Sadly, the answer is yes.
The plot is ridiculous. This fact is compounded by the amazingly bad special effects. It is incredible to me that recognizable actors (ie Jamie Pressly and Nicholas Brendan) read this script and decided it would be a good career move; it's even more incredible that they still have careers. WHY is this movie on a channel titled American Movie Classics?!?!?
The worst part of it is that it is so very, very bad...and I can't turn it off. It's like trying to look away when there's about to be a car crash or something equally tragic. Simple morbid curiosity. The upside? This would be a great movie to watch with friends while drinking, because it would lend itself well to drinking games and it's just so awful that it's really funny.
