TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film

SunnyHello Nice effects though.

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Elijah_Chandler You know that movie you only started watching because Showtime said that there were boobies in it? This is that movie. I started watching this movie 15 years ago, quite literally, because of that Showtime warning and finished watching it because it's freaking great. The actors have great chemistry together, it's just over the top enough to be ridiculous but not absurd, and it's got Gunnery Sgt. Hartman ("... your senior drill instructor. From now on the first and last words out your mouths will be sir. Do you maggots understand?") in a great supporting role! OH AND NORMAN FREAKING FELL is in it! If anyone out there can make a movie as good as this with the same budget (16 dollars and a roll of duct tape according to my sources), I'll buy you a beer. Seriously. Just send me a self addressed stamped envelope along with a DVD (REGION 1 or Region Free) of your movie and 38 dollars for the shipping/handling of your free beer and I'll get it out to you.

Pepper Anne Somewhat similar to the movie, Mystery Date, Hexed is the story of a little white lie that leads to big trouble. Ayre Gross plays a single hotel clerk. He uses, it seems, every opportunity available to pretend he is someone he's not (using his employee advantages) to pick up women at the hotel, and unsuccessfully so. This is usually thanks to his sneaky rival coworker who wants to see him fired, although it is also partly his own fault (he doesn't exactly have the charm of say, Ferris Bueller, or similar types able to easily manipulate a little white lie).When word gets to the employees that the French supermodel, Hexina (Claudia Christian), will be staying at the hotel, Ayre's character bets his rival coworker that by night's end, he will have a date with Hexina. Opportunity comes a knocking when Hexina mistakenly believes that the clerk is a blackmailing producer (which he doesn't deny) and suddenly, he suddenly finds out that Hexina is a bigger fraud than he is. And his little charades suddenly get him into huge trouble involving a psychopathic seductress, a few murders, and a town full of oblivious idiots that is going to give the clerk a hard time to set the record straight.There are amazingly funny moments, especially from R. Lee Ermey as the irritable Detective Furgeson and the witty retorts and wonderfully hilarious facial expressions of Claudia Christian as Hexina. Though the filming was rushed and done on a crunch budget, there is quite a bit here that delivers some great laughs. However, it might be for the same reason that just as much of the film is also delivered with some kind of comedic restraint. The movie never really gets off the ground until the clerk and Hexina actually meet. And some of the more subtle humor and gags tend to go unnoticed, possibly by more disinterested viewers. It's not a bad one to try out, however, if you're in the mood for something different. Although it shares a similar theme to Mystery Date, this is certainly no mild comedy (they do let the expletives fly). I imagine that probably, had there been more time and a bigger budget available, Hexed would be a bit less forgettable as a sort of murder-mystery comedy.

Joe_wilger I saw this with my wife about 5-6 years ago. We rented it because I was on my Claudia Christian phase. (Still am, but that is another story...)Claudia was also in The Hidden - a classic sci-fi / horror film.I've been recommending this movie for years.Today, I found out that it was written by Alan Spencer, the Creator, and writer for Sledge Hammer! Very screwball, about a liar's fantasy gone bad.Enough comedy, and enough storyline to make you forget that there is a method to the madness.Now I double recommend this film - no wonder it was so great! Enjoy!

KB-21 Maybe my expectations were too high -- but then again, all I wanted was a few laughs from a movie promising to be a send-up of all those Fatal Attraction-type thrillers. Claudia Christian and Arye Gross weren't bad, but the dialogue they were handed was just doltish, and the supporting cast was about as funny as a hearse -- what was with that ridiculous police sergeant? I just got the sense that everyone involved was either trying way too hard to make a lousy script funny, or (in the case of Norman Fell and the rest of the supporting cast) just marking time and waiting for their paychecks. 90 minutes, maybe half a dozen laughs. A waste of a great premise.
