I stumbled upon this 2022 horror comedy movie titled "Shaky Shivers" by random chance here in 2023. And never having heard about the movie, and given my fascination with the horror genre, of course I had to sit down and watch what director Sung Kang had to offer. And I have to admit that the movie's cover definitely helped to win me over. The storyline in "Shaky Shivers", as written by Andrew McAllister and Aaron Strongoni, sort of fell short of being impressive. Sure, the movie was watchable, but it was a rather bland viewing experience. I must say that I was expecting a bit more from the movie than what director Sung Kang delivered from the material written by Andrew McAllister and Aaron Strongoni. While I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, it should be noted that the actresses and actors on the cast list did put on good enough performances to bring the movie to life on the screen and bring the characters to life as well. It was a fairly small cast ensemble though. Visually then "Shaky Shivers" was okay. The creature design, effects and such were functional and adequate. Nothing you will be impressed by, but it certainly was adequate for a movie such as this. It felt like this movie was aimed at a somewhat younger audience. And that is perhaps why "Shaky Shivers" fell short of properly entertaining me. And I must admit that I found the movie to be rather devoid of comedy and laughs, making it a rather dull horror comedy experience to sit through. And while I did manage to endure the entire 82 minutes that the movie ran for, this is not a movie that I will ever return to watch a second time. Nor is it a movie that I will recommend horror comedy fans to rush out and get to watch. My rating of "Shaky Shivers" lands on a generous four out of ten stars.

Not everybody can be "Tucker and Dale vs Evil" (which was a very good horror spoof, a classic), this one is boring and fastidious. It start a bit with the same premise, a funny duo of idiots launched in a horrible situation and you have fun seeing them stumbling along. The thing is that Tucker and Dale were funny and lovable, those two never made me crack a smile once... I'm sorry, the actresses were not bad actually, it was the writing or the direction, or both... the funny scenes were just not funny, and the whole film end up boring as hell. The small budget and effects are not a problem, they go with the style, on that part is no problem, but I just end up not having laughed or smiled once, just bored to hell and asking myself why I bothered.

I love horror. I like comedy. I love horror/comedy. I hated this and it's the first movie I've ever walked out of. I can definitely enjoy a silly, dumb horror film, but this one was just unbearably boring and the "comedy" was non-existent. I saw this is a theater with multiple people, but it was dead quiet the entire time I was there. I wanted to leave within the first 15 minutes, but I really tried to give it a fair chance. I finally gave up after a whole hour of boredom and zero laughs. I'm honestly upset that I spent hard-earned money on this considering I have a very strict budget and haven't been able to go to the theater in awhile.

This is more of a comedy than a horror show. When it come's to horror, it's more of the campy/silly/zany type. At it's heart, it's about friendship - especially of Lucy and Karen. I liked the morality aspects of the movie too. The plot was original and it's so nice to see that in a movie. All the acting was good, especially for the main characters. It was also great that one of the main characters was named "Karen" and was a nice person. My name isn't Karen, but I know some people with that name, and think the way the name (or any name) has been co-opted to mean something terrible is ridiculous and needs to stop. It had solid laughs throughout. I don't like gore (but do like suspense), and I only had to shield my eyes from the screen a couple of times. I especially liked the way they handled the "eye injury," and had no problem seeing that. The special effects caused some laughs - in a good way. I loved the ice cream shop setting. I worked in a ma-and-pa ice cream shop in the 80's and thought they nailed the set/feeling with that one (how it looked and what went on inside it). I loved the spell book and all the humor that went along with it. I saw this in the theater and didn't know there would be information about the show ahead of time. Wish I'd arrived earlier! I wish this played in the theater longer. Look forward to streaming it. Would tell anyone to watch!

After encountering a strange woman, teen friends find themselves thrust into a strange scenario involving one of them being turned into a werewolf and try to cure it only to bring about more supernatural shenanigans that drag the two into a wild adventure to end it before the curse consumes them. This was a somewhat disappointing genre effort. A lot of that stems from the somewhat obvious family-friendly approach here that never really brings about a deranged atmosphere. With the joke-filled relationship they share that never once manages to evoke a thrilling environment that brings about no real sense of danger from the situation, the early half of this one is a bit of a struggle to get into as they try to figure out what's going on. Even as things escalate and more creatures appear around them, this one still manages to be way too jokey and lighthearted to make a lot of this feel genuinely scary or thrilling. That said, when it decides to abandon that and go for the wackiness present in everything, this one isn't too bad. The confrontations at pay are somewhat fun and even engaging at times with the use of black magic making the ongoing situations feel quite engaging constantly topping what came before it. Bringing about the use of werewolves, zombies, and the living dead through this setup, these encounters with a lighthearted tone are somewhat fun as the interactions throughout the woods and surrounding area are all quite enjoyable. Also featuring a fun sidestory about the power of friendship, it does have some great qualities in spots. Rated Unrated/PG-13: Violence and Language.
