Product Description

Amazon.ca

Sleepy-eyed hip-hop luminary Snoop Dogg stars in Bones, an energetic horror film about a hustler who returns from the dead. Jimmy Bones used to rule his street, but now his body lies in the basement of a gothic abandoned house. When a troupe of young DJs and promoters decide to turn the house into a nightclub, dark forces are, unsurprisingly, unleashed. Bones has a cutting sense of humor, and Ernest Dickerson's direction snaps, crackles, and pops. It's not exactly subtle--the opening scene launches into gore and special effects--but there is some evocative imagery, particularly a large black hellhound that the club kids foolishly adopt as a pet. Snoop casts an effectively spectral aura, and Pam Grier, as the hustler's psychically gifted former girlfriend, has her usual presence and energy. All in all, a dynamic and enjoyable horror flick. --Bret Fetzer

4.0 out of 5 stars It was good Jun 1 2004
By A Customer
Format:DVD
This movie was good, it would have got 5 stars but the ending was trash. The special effects are good and the story was good and the movie was tight up until the end, where it changed to garbage.

3.0 out of 5 stars won't quite fo'shizzle yo nizzle, but not bad. Mar 18 2004
By The Birdman
Format:DVD
Imagine this scenario if you will: Shaft goes to investigate weird goings on in The House on Haunted Hill, goes inside and finds a beautiful girl sprawled out in the hall. he gets in, starts to be a sex machine to this particular chick, when it suddenly morphs and he finds himself delivering ten times out of ten to Freddy Kruger. nine months later, there is the pitter patter of tiny feet. and all four of them belong to BONES.

And, surprisingly, it is quite watchable. Snoop cuts a fine figure as the titular Jimmy Bones, the direction is great, with Bruce Dickerson playing games with the structure and imagery of the movie, and hearlding the return of one of the ghost movies biggest staples: maggots.

Such a shame then, that the script is a little patchy. first, delving into sub Elm Street mythology (Bones has his own song!), and throwing in some humour towards the end that changes the tone of the movie way too rapidly. the writers are going for an urban horror classic with this, but the lack of imagination in the original story drags it down to b movie territory. which is unfortunate because this is fun, unsettling and very watchable.

it won't quite fo'shizzle yo nizzle, but give this thizzle a vizzle and enjoy yo bad self. chuch.

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than I expected but a few flaws. Feb 24 2004
By Zacc
Format:DVD
Ok, let me just start of by saying that I hate rap, so you would think that I wouldn't be able to stand it. yet, some how this movie turned out to be good...except the ending was just dumb...not to mention incredibly gross! but other than that this movie is not what I expected...especial coming from snoop dogg! all in all, its a good movie for young'ens (despite the language) and adults!

Besides seeing the beautiful and voluptuous Pamela Anne-Cassandra Grier I wouldn't recommend this movie. Ms. Grier and Snoop look like they are the only ones trying. Read more

I like Snoop Dogg. His music always makes me feel good at parties, he's a funny guy and he's not a half bad actor. Now, with that said lets talk about his horror movie "Bones. Read more
