Don Coscarelli (Director of some of my favorites like Phantasm and Bubba Ho-Tep) returns with this drug trip of a movie! John Dies at the End is a great movie and the kind of movie I hope to make one day. Much like Phantasm you just have to roll with whats happening and lose yourself in the dream like weirdness of the characters and creatures. Speaking of creatures there are some terrific practical effects in this but thats not to say it doesn't have some bad CG here and there. Everybody gives a great performance, some better than others like the guy who plays John and Paul Giamatti who both kill it. Over all we don't get enough movies like this anymore but maybe thats a good thing because then when we get a really good one like John Dies at the End it stands out in a sea of shit.
