So, here we have a sort of "homemade" looking horror flick that's chockablock with ideas pilfered from other notable shockers.
"Beezel" has an interesting idea buried in derivative pieces taken from sources such as "Evil Dead" (demon/witch in the basement) and "Creep" (unsettling man hiring an innocent video artist). Broken up into four segments, only the first two are worth watching. For a short running time, it turns lethargic halfway through. The droning soundtrack music doesn't help at all. The fourth and final episode drags on and offers no explanations about the titular Beezel. How did she/it get into the basement? Why is this thing a witch? How has this "house of horror" gone unreported for decades? And so on.
The final episode might have offered a little information other than the wife's admission to being a "horndog" while the actress goes about swallowing all the scenery.
Take out the few gore scenes and you basically have a Twilight Zone episode from the 60s. "Beezel" started well, but died halfway through. Sad, there was potential there. 3 stars for the first two sequences.

Tamara Day hasn't an ounce of taste. There's no real renovation being put into the "mansions", just redecoration. "Hey! Let's tear out the archival features and put in some FUN! Stuff I found at Big Lots!!" This seems to be the answer to every job she promotes on her low-rent Magnolia wanna-be. Strip out the charm and history of the original structure, put in FUN! Things that have no connection to the original structure. Every one of her shows is a lesson in what not to do...however, if you want your home/house to look like there was a sale at Lamps Plus or Ugly Wallpaper 'R' Us, get this mommy on the job. Her design is lackluster at best. Also, mermaid hair a la ChrisTINA "one day shower renovation spokesPERSON (worst upspeak affectation on the TV, hands down). Anyway, the only real worth of this dimestore restore show is counting how many times Tamara uses the FUN! Description of everything from wallpaper, world's ugliest lighting fixtures, poor color choices and the degradation of the "mansions" she purports to save. A good hate watch now and then, so two FUN! Stars.
