I stuck with this one, Against my will

Caddy Hack is (obviously) a zero-budget, horror-comedy ripoff of Caddyshack. This movie's central character, at least for the bulk of the film, seemed to be the groundskeeper. Yes, the Bill Murray character, only this guy (and how he's written) is violently unfunny. Anyway, he poisons the gophers, who turn deadly. The groundskeeper, the owner, the caddies, with every subsequent character introduced, and there's a whole string of them, only seem to make this movie worse. To add insult to injury, the lame soundtrack, score, and goofy sound effects only seemed to magnify how bad everything is.So, for reasons unknown to me, Trum... er, the owner of the golf course brings in his niece, Becky, to be Caddy Manager(?!). As far as I was concerned, this character is introduced as Eye Candy, giving off a Bridget-Fonda-in-her-prime vibe. Then she spoke. Ok, eye candy it is.I sat through the full 75 minutes, and I have to totally backtrack. Full props must be given to actress Chrissy Cavallo (as Becky). She is hands-down the funniest person in this whole movie. As a matter of fact, once her relationship with "the nerd," Googie (Jake Foy) is introduced... by her driving 37 golf balls straight to his crotch, and they break into a song, "Balls Deep in Love," Caddy Hack shifts into a typical Wild Eye-frenetic pace. This movie gets quite entertaining with this turn of events. And once the toxi-fied zombie gophers get to breeding, a la Gremlins, or Critters (albeit with an even lower budget), there's great fun to be had with the deadly gophers partying, running out of beer, and making a beer run disguised as a human! One of the caddies recruits his Goth kid brother, who plans to blow up his school, to blow up the gophers for him. I detested the set-up time that compromised the first half of this movie, but once it gets its legs, it is a total blast (literally) to watch. I'm balancing my score out to a solid 7.Writer/director Anthony Catanese has INVENTED more nonsensical insults here than in any other movie I've seen. The formula is simple: Take two unrelated vulgar words, put them together, and ta-da! Over and over and over. Not necessarily the funniest thing, but it's certainly another wacky characteristic of this, uh, pretty off-kilter movie.Oh, they directly rip off the Beastie Boys, too, during the closing credits. Sit through them all, and they freaking CONGRATULATE you for making it through the whole movie! That's the perfect ending to Caddy Hack.

It was pretty bad...

Of course I had never heard about this 2023 horror comedy from writer and director Anthony Catanese prior to stumbling upon it by random chance. And believing it to be a spoof on the classic 1980 movie "Caddy Shack", and given the fact that it was a horror comedy that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to sit down and watch the movie.I have to admit that I sat down to watch the movie with absolutely no expectations, so writer and director Anthony Catanese had every opportunity to impress, bedazzle and entertain me with "Caddy Hack". However, he didn't manage to do so.The storyline in "Caddy Hack" was simplistic and not particularly funny. And despite of the movie running for only a mere 75 minutes, it was quite a struggle to sit through given the lousy writing that compiled the storyline and script.The acting performances in "Caddy Hack" were pretty dubious. Some of the actors and actresses were unable to hold a straight face while delivering their dialogue, or while others were delivering their dialogue. And some of them were unable to not stare right into the camera during their scenes. It should also be noted that some of the actors and actresses on the cast list were actually fair enough, and they certainly did their part to carry the movie.Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list here in this movie. Nor can I claim that I was impressed with what I witnessed on the screen.The special effects in the movie were exactly just that; special. The gophers looked just like plush toys and it was so difficult to take it serious, despite it supposed to be a horror comedy. It was just so amazingly low budget and low key.Now, I am sure that there actually is an audience out there for a low budget horror comedy such as "Caddy Hack". I just happened not to be a part of that particular audience.The movie's cover/poster was actually the best part about the ordeal.My rating of "Caddy Hack" lands on a two out of ten stars.
