A trashy comedy that looks devilishly good when compared to the majority of its subgenre.
When consideringHell Baby,one must first consider its parentage.
How very meta of this subgenre, right?
What seems to be the most difficult aspect of this group is balancing the horror with the comedy.
Well is it too late?
Considering their overwhelmingly poor performances and super saturated scripts, most more than deserve that fire of critical panning.
In fact, Hell Baby embraces this silliness.
Sure,Hell Babyis nowhere close to good.
I could not count the number of times the film made me jump.
Even better is that those jumps came with a whole slew of laughs.
Particularly noteworthy in this category is Keegan Michael Key who plays the couples funky next door neighbor turned squatter.
Key manages to create a perfect Louisianan caricature while still hitting almost every punch line out of the park.
