Review – 13 Seconds

Yeah, I’m willing to bet that there are 13 seconds or so worth of entertainment in this movie. Too bad it was feature length. Like many other low-budget horror movies that came before it – and no doubt many more that will follow after – this production relies almost exclusively on bad gore to keep it moving. Though a couple of the splatter set-ups were bush-leagues cool, they don’t sustain the entire production. And the really dumb thing with this one is that it was set up to borrow a concept from Rod Serling’s “Night Gallery” series, but even such a solid foundation wasn’t enough to support the usual dreadful trappings of the witless fright flick. Wish I’d skipped it
