Frankie Freako is such a Cool guy that I don't want to ruin the Party, so I decided to give him a good, acceptable Rating, but...

Unfortunately, I have to admit that this isn't Steven Kostanski's Best work. I enjoyed his last Films like "Fathers Day", Psycho Goreman, the short film "Bio-Cop", and the Horrorfilm "The Void", which had a somewhat serious undertone, more. But I have to say that I was well Entertained by this Film. You can see that Steven Kostanski put a lot of love into his crazy Puppet shows. The gags don't always work, but it's wonderfully pointless, and the Film itself doesn't take itself too seriously. I realize that not everyone will like the Film, but if you know and love Steven Kostanski's special sense of Humor and style, then you can definitely give the Film a chance.If you're looking for pointless, trashy fun, grab some popcorn, turn off your Brain and let the Party start!

Drinking game: Drink a shot for every "absurd" you read in this review

Ever since Steven Kostanski released The Void, which I absolutely adored, he has definitely been on my radar. Since then, I have watched other movies of his like Manborg, Leprechaun: Returns, and Psycho Goreman, all of which were unique and great in their own way. It's no different with Frankie Freako. It's absurd, funny, and totally bonkers. The movie tells the story of Conor, a workaholic who finds himself alone at home when his wife is away for the weekend. He stumbles upon an ad for a party hotline hosted by a strange dancing goblin named Frankie Freako, and soon after, the carnage begins.The movie is strange, and it honestly took me a while to get into the right mindset to understand its humor and general premise. I wasn't fully convinced at first, but as the movie progresses, it becomes more absurd and fun. Once you settle into the story and its crazy characters, the movie becomes quite entertaining and enjoyable to watch. Similar to movies like Manborg or Psycho Goreman, the comedy doesn't always hit the mark. It's obviously absurd and childish, with some smart jokes mixed in, but I understand it's not for everyone, and at times, it didn't quite connect with me either. However, I still prefer these absurd and fun movies over another stereotypical haunted house movie from Blumhouse. Also, the practical effects in this movie were once again awesome, but I didn't expect anything less from Kostanski and his team. Especially the third act has a nice surprise that could come straight out of an 80s creature feature. If you've enjoyed Kostanski's previous work, you'll likely have a great time with Frankie Freako and his buddies, but I can understand that the absurd humor and narrative might turn some people off. [5.7/10]
