Title: The VelociPastor - A Truly Unique Movie Experience
Post by: airboy on March 09, 2020, 11:48:40 AM
The wife and I watched The VelociPastor on Amazon Prime last night.  This one hour and ten minute movie was "highly entertaining."

A Pastor sees his parents die in a car explosion and becomes depressed.  He travels to China to gain perspective and reflection and gains a strange artifact from a dying Chinese girl whose last words he does not understand.  He then gains the power to become a Velociraptor - and saves a Prostitute who becomes his friend.  He must struggle with the age old dilemma - is it bad to murder evil people as a dinosaur?  The plot becomes stranger when the Ninjas appear.

The trailer can be found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Nyb0GqAjKM

We enjoyed it as a MST3K experience in batshit crazy, low budget horror comedy.  We found it laugh out loud funny at multiple points.  Don't expect high production values or skimping on fake blood.

Cool. This is the type of inventive, deep and introspective film that has been absent since the great films of the 1950s such as "Plan 9 Fom Outer Space" and "Prehistoric Women".

Let's not forget the precision historical drama that is "One Million Years B.C".

Yeah, because modern films like Rise of Skywalker are such masterpieces :P

We need a thread on batshit movies.  My wife and I have seen a lot over the years.
