Summary: Pure Rot!
Review: Absolutely one of the worst films ever made! I was so angry after being tricked into watching this film at a theater that I wanted to beat up the director and everyone else who took part in it! I wanted to yell at the theater manager and the parents of little children that were allowed to watch this so called piece of entertainment. It's not humor. It's sadistic and cruel to make actors and actresses take such parts. Like the innocent black man who comes to the door as an investigator and ends up getting cut to little pieces by a chain saw in a bathroom hotel. Imagine the auditions! I watch films to be entertained. This is bloody trash. I am concerned about reviewers who rated this film highly. It represents the lowest form of entertainment and portrays American film makers at their absolute worst.

Summary: Absolutely the worst so called film ever made
Review: Words cannot describe how let down I feel that someone would take the time and spend money to produce such a film! How could anyone enjoy watching a black man being cut to pieces in a bathroom by a chain saw? Imagine trying out for that part! Watching his body vibrating from the butcher job as his blood spills on the floor. Absolutely revolting. And the prostitute sprawled on the floor with buckets of blood surrounding her body. Or the part where they hack up the bodies and then try to put them together in the ground correctly because their concience is bothering them! This is entertainment of the lowest kind. I love a good scary movie, but this is far from it. I was extremely disappointed when I saw it, even devastated that there were small children in the theater. Heaven help us! Films such as this portray American entertainment at its absolute worst.

Summary: WOW
Review: As my brother stated it to be:"black humor" but since that seems to be a little politicly incorrect I call it very twisted and may I add funnny sense of humor. They killed 2 people. But Boyd went raving mad and knocked other people away as well. The way the script allowed itself to knock away main characers like flys was amazing. Top rating!

Summary: Black "comedy."
Review: Somebody forgot to tell writer Peter Berg that making a black comedy requires some actual comedy, at some point. It's definitely possible to explore the dark tendencies of people and make it funny -- check out Diaz' previous work on The Last Supper, for example.What Berg does, however, is put together a generally loathsome group of people and let them hack, backstab, and most importantly SHOUT at each other for an interminable length of time. I haven't seen this much hysterical shouting since "It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world." I consider myself pretty arrogant and pretentious, but even I don't buy the "unflinching look at the dark side of human nature" praise that people are giving this flick. Nor do I think that I dislike it because I can't handle black comedy, or prefer neatly wrapped-up Hollywood fare (I loved Reservoir Dogs and Seven, two of the bleakest). Very bad things is simply a very bad movie with a very bad script -- let us try to maintain the distinction between loathsome and provocative (see, or rather don't see, Happiness for a further example).

Summary: Great movie!
Review: I can't understand some people rate this movie so low because it's not comedy. Sure, it's not lightweight dumb comedy, but I was laughing all the way (final scene is something really cool) If you like dark humour and really original movies, you MUST see VERY BAD THINGS! And you will remember that doggy in final episode for a long time :-)

Summary: VERY DARK HUMOR...
Review: Very Bad Things is very much a comedy, albeit a very dark and contraversial one. Many people have accused this film of being delibrately sadistic and morally wrong. Others (the vast minority) have found it very funny, somewhat insightful and all around, a very good movie.The story here, is that during Kyle Fisher's (Jon Farveau) bachelor party in a Las Vegas hotel room with a group of male buddies, a prostitue is accidentally killed. Robert Boyd (Christian Slater-who DOMINATES this movie), a real estate agent and self help fanatic suggests hiding the body and forgetting about the mess. Before long, the bodies begin to pile up, distrust is everywhere and at the heart of this ultra dark comedy, is a wickedly funny movie that skewers just about everything under the sun regarding weddings, self help, a night with the 'guys' and so on and so on. Slater is awesome in this flick, but the rest of the cast superb as well. The gorgeous Cameron Diaz is another stand out here, again proveing that she is the finest actress working today. Her hilarious turn as the bride to be should've won her an Oscar nomination. Very Bad Things probably isn't a movie for the majority, it's unconventional, gory and to some, disturbing, however, it is brilliant and that's always misunderstood at first. Hopefully one day, it can get the attention it fully deserves.

Summary: Very Bad Movie
Review: Usually I'm a great fan of black humour. This movie is pretty black... but really does lack the humour!
Rating:
Summary: If this is a comedy...
Review: ... this is a very sick comedy. As the title implies, the movie involves some very bad things, indeed. If a comedy involves an exaggeration of something, this one is an exaggeration of the greedy side of human nature that doesn't want to be caught doing anything bad. This is not an exploration of human nature, guilt, or greed; it is an exploitation of these things - a horrible exaggeration.

Summary: An interesting peek at the secrets friends keep
Review: The movie starts innocently enough, but as in every great dark comedy things go severely awry. Who is next ? The only thought throughout the movie. Acting is brilliant to say the least and story line has undertones of Tim Burton, Stanley Kubrick and Alfred Hitchcock. All in all a well rounded movie, a definite must for all collectors of this genre.

Summary: A Very Bad Thing
Review: I was drawn to this movie because it was billed as a "dark comedy" I thought that meant that it was supposed to be funny, at least on some level. But, it wasn't funny (darkly or in any other way). It was not suspensful because it was predictable. It did however feature a very hip cast... except for Daniel Stern and Leland Orser who provided us with the extremities of acting (overacting and no acting). This movie reminded me of the late HBO series Tales From the Crypt, minus the cryptkeeper.
