Cynthia (2018) Reviews

  • It's Alive! A Pleasant Surprise.

    influxtwo2018-10-07

    I am going to give this a 9 out of 10. First of all I am a fan of Scout Taylor Compton, Sid Haig, & Bill Moseley. I'm not a fan of babies or children I admit so I didn't expect to care for this. However, I loved it. Right from the beginning to the very end I was hooked. It was much better than I was expecting. There's not too much gushy baby crap to bog it down. It really cuts to the punch of the comedy and horror value fairly nicely and well paced. Scout Taylor Compton was a great lead and this is one of her best new roles where she had a character who was a little more fleshed out than she has had in a little while now in horror and it was great to see her walk the tight rope of comedy satire and horror. It's a genre hybrid she is a natural in. I loved the satire of the script, it gave you those dry bitter snicker kind of giggles where you know the writer's sense of humor is vivid and wild yet somewhat restrained so that it's compelling right off the bat. The acting was much better than I was expecting, with not too many weak links. You could tell this was a passion project and not just bad actors reading lines. It was a blessing that they mostly used practical creature effects for the title character, Cynthia. They did a lot of things right here. It is in the family of horror comedy that you seldom see anymore. It is FOR fans of horror comedy. It is not confused with it's genre, and I'm glad the film was self aware enough to walk that tight line. It reminded me a bit of films in the vein of Basket Case (1982) It's Alive (1974), Bad Milo (2013). I wish there had been more gore. There was certainly gore to be had, but had there been more over the top, it would have bounced this film to a whole new level in the genre. All in all a treat for fans of horror comedy or fans of the acting/directing trio involved. The end was a bit shaky and loses a little bit of that control it has in the beginning but not enough to damper the experience. I just wish the music during the cynthia bedroom scene was more audible and over the top in either an overly jokey terrifying way or a silly quirky way. And the Cynthia sound effects needed a bit more character, screeches or growls to make it all more intense. In other words i was expecting the end to become over the top madness, gore etc like the first half of the film was headed and it was slightly underwhelming instead, though still enjoyable. It would be a shame if the horror community doesn't grab a hold of this and give it the recognition it deserves, so that is why I felt compelled to write a review. I actually hope there's a sequel lol! And if the director or writer is reading this, take it all over the top. Let Cynthia evolve in to the agile fierce killing machine she deserves to be. Let this be more over the top like Peter Jackson's Dead Alive baby scenes. Lol. You got this.

  • Fun and enjoyable watch!

    Great, fun movie combining humor and gore. It's rare in this age of PC culture to find new movies like this with an amusing yet raunchy tongue-in-cheek sense of humor. Very well done and brilliantly directed by Devon and Kenny.

  • Great Movie, campy fun! (some mild spoilers)

    Fuzzylumkin2019-03-12

    Ok so this movie had everything in it: a great cast including multiple actors from Rob Zombie's movies, gratuitousness sex scenes (you know that's half the reason you watch horror movies!!) campy monsters, and really good funny scenes. What turned me on about the movie is that it is made by Girls & Corpses and one of the actresses in the film, this is her first mainstream movie, so that was what put it on the radar for me. Seeing Rufus from Devil's Rejects, dressed like a homeless woman totally sold me on it however!! This movie takes from the old school style of perspective of the creature, not letting you see what it really is until way later, which is a great way to build the suspense instead of blowing it super early. The acting was great, the movie didn't feel cheap or low budget. I personally hope to see a lot more out of Girls & Corpses in the future!!

  • Basket Case meets the world of parenting

    tdrish2019-01-20

    There's really no wrong done here. Everything passes with flying colors. The acting, cinematography, the story, all well done. And the baby is adorable as all hell! Cynthia is a fun, entertaining, dark and fairly gruesome comedy in the world of parenting. Offbeat, colorful, and over flowing to the brim with funny quotes, this is sure to keep you laughing, smiling....and crying "GROSS!" The story revolves around a happily married couple who are trying to make a baby together, and spending money and countless efforts in doing so. When the time finally comes to have their turn in bringing a child in the world, well, things take a turn ( ahem, a twist) for the worst. A cyst is removed, and taken away out yonder. Problem is, its not a cyst, its a twin baby. And not quite as adorable to look at as the first copy, if you catch my drift. This second child, eventually going by the name Cynthia, finds her way home to mommy and daddy ( with a string of grisly events, of course) and, low and behold, things aren't so cozy at the house. Dad has outed himself as being homosexual, and he and his boyfriend have some last minute plans on where to go with the baby that exclude the wife. Cynthia, needless to say, is not going to take this lightly, and....let's just say she's very protective of baby Samantha. Despite most people wanting to think that this movie is weird, most cannot deny that they actually liked the movie. They just may not admit it. Job well done! Cynthia gets six out of 10 stars from me.

  • Cynthia delivers!

    jdrhine272018-09-29

    With a killer cast of horror alums Scout Taylor-Compton, Sid Haig and Bill Moseley, Cynthia is both funny and chilling. The baby monster is a frightening combination of pathos and putrid. Directors Kenny Gage and Devon Downs really nailed the tension and pace. It is very professionally shot with great camera work and effects by Mario Torres, who did an amazing job. And contrary to those who want to trash the acting here, they are all veterans who are at the top of their craft. I mean come on!... Sid Haig and Bill Moseley from The Devils Rejects! And Robert LaSardo from like, everything, and Scout Taylor-Compton who is amazing and starred in Rob Zombie's Halloween. I think the low scores are from trolls who clearly did not watch the film or are just haters. One note, I wouldn't recommend this film or pregnant women, lol. Yikes!
