Well, that's interesting...

I'm of mixed minds about Fan Films. Really, the acting tends to be below sub par (Remember Grayson? "We hired this guy to play Commissioner Gordon because he had a mustache"), and the actors tend to be hired because they have a costume in their size (usually because they made it).

So, well, finding myself in possession of more bandwidth than sense, I'll occasionally download one of these digital geekgasms. This time, it's Freddy VS Ghostbusters.

Now, in concept (what a beautiful qualifier that is), that's a really cool idea. So far (Thirteen minutes in) it's fulfilling the standard FanFilm qualities, which is horrendous performances and effects that are, well, what's better than atrocious?

The music tends to be remixes of the original Ghostbusters theme, with a little more guitar. The story is a retelling of GB1, with FK instead of Zuul. Anyway, I suffer so you don't have to.

edit: Freddy just took a hit off a bong.

edit2: Oh, Christ. A Jared cameo.

edit3: On the plus side, the writer/director did not also star.

horror, fan films, fandom, ghostbusters
