Right, well the movie had literally just started, and I was ready to turn it off. Director starts with a full blown girl on girl sex scene. Yeah, I was sitting down to watch a horror movie, not a pornographic movie. But I opted to give the movie a fair chance and not turn it off within the first three minutes of its runtime.
Of course I had not heard about this particular movie prior to stumbling upon it here in 2024 and opting to watch it. But of course I am familiar with the urban legend that is "Bloody Mary", so I figured I would be in for something like that. And it was sort of that, except it was all watered down by amateurish movie making and sleazed up by pointless nudity.
Was was up with the music video segment about 15 minutes into the movie? Talk about a pointless filler running for about three minutes, as it didn't further the storyline or narrative one bit.
The acting performances in the movie were pretty wooden and amateurish. It was a cast ensemble where I was only familiar with Brinke Stevens and Shawn C. Phillips, which aren't exactly A-listers. Usually I do enjoy watching unfamiliar and new talents on the screen when I sit down to watch a movie, but the acting performances in "Bloody Mary 3D" were just draining the overall enjoyment from the movie.
"Bloody Mary 3D" is dumbed down significantly by a pointless and excessive amount of nudity that serves the narrative no purpose. It felt nothing more than an excuse for writer Keith Parker and director Charlie Vaughn to show off an abundance of female nudity.
I guess I should have taken notice of the staggering 2.2 rating that "Bloody Mary 3D" had managed to snag here on IMDb, at the time I sat down to watch it.
If you enjoy horror movies, like I do, you need stay well clear of "Bloody Mary 3D". Some of us suffered through this dumpster fire of a movie, so you don't have to; you're quite welcome.
My rating of director Charlie Vaughn's 2011 movie "Bloody Mary 3D" lands on a one out of ten stars. This movie was truly and utterly abysmal.
