Piglet Ratings & Reviews
- ርልዪረ22 februari 2025A load of 💩
- jackmeat3 februari 2025My quick rating - 2.8/10. Another flick attempts to ride the coattails of the recent surge in popularity for twisted fairytale horror flix, but unfortunately, it squeals more than it slashes. Billed as a brutal B-budget slasher, it quickly unravels into a mess of poor choices, bad editing, and technical blunders that even the most forgiving horror fans might struggle to overlook. The plot is horror 101: On Kate's 21st birthday camping trip, she and her friends stumble into the path of Piglet, a monstrous human wearing a pig mask. Despite the synopsis hinting at a human-pig hybrid, the film clearly shows him finding and donning a rubber mask, which feels like a missed opportunity to lean into actual body horror. After the first (and arguably only impactful) kill, the group uncovers Piglet's origins—which adds little intrigue—and Kate (Alina Desmond) must confront her murky past to survive. Let's talk about the acting. Atrocious is putting it kindly. The performances are so stiff and unnatural they make you wonder if the cast met each other for the first time on set. The dialogue delivery is either mumbled under overpowering "duh-dum" background noises or blasted at an ear-piercing volume when the soundtrack takes a break. Sound issues like these aren't budget-related—they're just sloppy post-production. The kills, a slasher's bread and butter, are painfully uninspired. There's a disappointing lack of creativity and brutality. Early practical effects show some promise with decent blood work, but the moment CGI splatter enters the frame, it nosedives into laughable territory. The digital blood looks cheap, and not in a charming, grindhouse way—just bad. We also get the obligatory cannibal family subplot, because why not? It's like the filmmakers threw in every trope hoping something would stick. As for realism, if we're supposed to believe a car that runs out of gas mid-drive comes to a screeching halt… well, maybe spend five minutes Googling how cars work. The finale is the cherry on this poorly baked cake—clumsy, disjointed, and edited with all the finesse of a dull cleaver. It feels like the movie didn’t know what it wanted to be. I can't tell if this was originally a different project repurposed to cash in on the Blood and Honey craze or just a coincidental disaster. Piglet's design is eerily similar to the one from that series, but there's no direct connection, and any attempt at shared lore would be nonsensical at best. Despite all this, I've still seen worse. Piglet is a mess, that is just plain and simple. It’s the kind of film that might find a niche audience who appreciate its flaws as unintentional comedy. For everyone else, it's just another sloppy entry in the ever-growing pile of forgettable slashers.
