RED VELVET is a fast-paced, unique and entertaining horror movie. It is also a refreshing and fun alternative to the "torture porn" splattering across movie screens of late.
The look of this film is an old-fashioned 35mm delight. Colors and composition have WIZARD OF OZ purity, shocking to see in a digital age. The production design is at once creative and seductive. Imagine Dorothy and Toto running through a bloody Dario Argento landscape. The cast is photographed like 1940's movie stars: bigger than life and glamorous. The special effects are stylish, sometimes abstract with silhouettes, fantasy sparkles and glittered fountains of blood splashing across scenes - allowing audience imagination to do the dirty (wet) work.
The RED VELVET Maniac is a surrealist's dream (nightmare). Something cobbled together by Salvador Dali and Bill Gates. Bunny-ear speakers. LED grin. Polaroid headgear. This film was created from the script up to seduce more than just a genre demographic. Strong enough for a man but made for a woman! In RED VELVET, ladies are attracted to creepy Aaron (Henry Thomas) while cheering for Linda (Kelli Garner) all the way to the end. Our female audience is not relegated to the role of sleeve-clinging, reluctantly dragged along to a gory date movie by their boyfriends. Meanwhile, the male horror fan is never left wanting. RED VELVET is a character driven, deconstructed slasher-film that is fun for everyone!
