THE FEAR: RESURRECTION

1999 • US HMDB

October 5, 1999

It's death-by-fear (aka scared-to-death) in this deceptively psychological thriller. The hero, Mike brings his friends to his grandparents' house for a Halloween party wherein they will all dress up as their innermost fears. Mike's fear is that he's inherited a homicidal legacy from his father. Mike's father was a serial killer who murdered his mother right in front of him when Mike was five before committing suicide. Mike's fear manifests itself in his inability to commit to his girlfriend of 4 1/2 years, Peg for fear that he will kill her too. Everything gets rolling when an ancient Indian totem wooden figure named Morty comes to life and starts killing off Mike's friends by making their worst fears come true. The ultimate confrontation comes when Mike has to face his greatest fear - his own father.

The Verdict

On Halloween night, dreams take shape, and so do nightmares. A group of young people realize this when they start playing with their fears.

On Halloween night, dreams take shape, and so do nightmares. A group of young people realize this when they start playing with their fears. But when there are Indian rituals, animated mannequins, and evil spirits, there is little to joke about. Almost all the young people will meet a bad end. Poor example of home video horror. A barely acceptable plot is the only thing to save about the film; otherwise, only much sadness and some unintentionally ridiculous sequences; a wooden mannequin that wanders around killing everyone in its path, but don't get your hopes up, there isn't even a scene of blood, let alone a scary one. Bad, not worth the rental money at all.
