A Fine Tribute to Cult Horror

This film was a fine experience overall, especially if you're into quirky meta-commentary about cult horror. It centers around the fictional legacy of "End Zone 2" and succeeds in crafting a world that feels steeped in nostalgia. For me, the real highlight was seeing Michael St. Michaels again-his presence added an enjoyable and familiar touch. The interviews with real people from the horror world gave it an authentic vibe that horror fans will appreciate. While it may not be revolutionary, there's a certain charm to "revisiting" these characters, and it's a solid watch for fans who enjoy a niche, self-aware take on genre history. Even if it wasn't completely for me, it still has its merits.

Finally! The Definitive End Zone 2 Documentary.

The classic slasher End Zone 2, which is practically forgotten, finally gets its dues in this superb documentary.Loaded with clips and great interviews from the cast and other heavyweights of horror, it's a great nostalgia trip back to one of the genre's most unsung but influential and terrifying characters ... Smashmouth.The two actors that played him back in 1970 face off and the truth about who is the real Smash-Mouth is answered once and for all.I was lucky to catch the FrightFest World Premiere screening, so got to see the double bill, which had the full UNCUT End Zone 2 movie after the documentary.Not to be missed!

Interesting meta-premise

This creative mock-documentary feels like a cousin to "This Is Spinal Tap." Mikey (Michael St. Michaels) and William (Bill Weeden) are totally hilarious as the two actors behind the cannibalistic football player Smash Mouth, and perfectly embody the rivalry between the various actors behind Hollywood's horror icons.The film is a treat for genre fans. So many stars big and small star in hilariously convincing interviews. A wild ride that I recommend to all folks who can laugh at the strange world of conventions, sequels, and fan culture.(The film premiered at FrightFest, London UK: August 29, 2022.)
