Honestly, I never know what I’m going to review next which creates some memorable pairings. I recently took a dive into the Universal vampire flick Abigail and fell in love with the film. I didn’t have anything that I thought would pair well with it so I decided to check out the short horror comedy Bomb Voyage.
This one was sent over some time ago for review but my health took a spill for a few weeks and I wasn’t able to get to it in a reasonable time. Regardless, I still wanted to check it out and I’m glad I did. It was a wild one.
**Spoiler Alert** The film follows a young man who finds himself ready for a date when he enters an elevator. Sometime later another gentleman enters and they begin their journey through the building when something bad happens. As they pass by each floor the other man becomes uncomfortable and it’s clear he is suffering from some sort of gastrointestinal distress. **spoiler Alert**
I went into Bomb Voyage expecting it to be a film about an actual bomb. However, after finally seeing it I can safely say this is the best title they could have chosen for this film. It was extremely funny with the type of toilet humor you don’t really see in film anymore.
The acting in this one is fun. While the cast doesn’t really spend a lot of time interacting with one another, they really bring the energy and intensity as the film reaches its climax. The story for this one is a lot of fun but it doesn’t really deliver on the horror. Sure, if you were the young man stuck on the elevator with a stranger painting the walls with his own poop then it would be a horrifying experience. With that being said, it’s not really a horror flick. Instead, it’s a disgusting comedy that was more fun than it needed to be.
Finally, the films is not a bloody one. However, if you are in the market for a lot of doo doo then this one is for you. Overall, Bomb Voyage is one of the shittiest films I have ever seen and I fucking loved it. Seriously, check this one out if you get the chance.
