After having read some fairly bad reviews about this 2018 movie titled "Exterminadores do Além Contra a Loira do Banheiro" (aka "Ghost Killers vs Bloody Mary") then I must admit that I wasn't particularly hopeful for this movie. But still, the movie's cover was interesting and the title was alluring. Plus the facts that this was a horror comedy and a movie that I hadn't already seen weighed heavier than the bad reviews. So I ended up sitting down to watch it.
And color me impressed. Forget about the bad reviews, because "Ghost Killers vs Bloody Mary" is an entertaining and funny movie, very much in the same style such as "Shaun of the Dead" and "Lesbian Vampire Killers". I have to say that I was very surprised with the outcome of director Fabrício Bittar's movie. And it was a very positive surprise.
The storyline was enjoyable, and for a horror comedy such as this, then I will say that writers Fabrício Bittar, Andre Catarinacho and Danilo Gentili definitely managed to come up with something enjoyable, entertaining and unique enough to prove well-worth watching.
The movie had lots and lots of blood and gore in it, and that was definitely something that I enjoyed, so for a seasoned gorehound such as myself, I was definitely content with "Ghost Killers vs Bloody Mary". And the special effects were also rather good, which just added to the overall enjoyment.
Now, I haven't watched a whole lot of Portuguese movies, so I wasn't familiar with the casted actors and actresses that performed in the movie. But I will say that they definitely had a good ensemble of performers put together for the movie.
I found "Ghost Killers vs Bloody Mary" to be a good mixture of comedy and horror, with enough elements of both genres to make for a very wholehearted movie.
My rating of "Ghost Killers vs Bloody Mary" lands on a seven out of ten stars. If you enjoy horror comedies in the likes of "Lesbian Vampire Killers" or "Shaun of the Dead", then you definitely should sit down to watch "Ghost Killers vs Bloody Mary". Don't let the language discourage you, because this movie is definitely well-worth a watch.
