What to Expect

A bizarre mashup of Bubba Ho-Tep old folks going up against a Faustian villain.

When the local bingo hall is taken over by Mr Big offering big cash prizes, Lupita thinks something must be amiss. When the prize winners start turning dead in increasingly bloody ways, she realizes she was more right than she could have possibly imagined.

Richard Brake is a great genre actor, Adriana Barraza is an excellent actress, Gigi Saul Guerrero is an interesting, talented director, this movie does none of them any favours. It is not a good one on the Welcome To The Blumhouse/Amazon Prime roster.

Pitched as a horror comedy, there’s little real examples of either in this. From an odd start where $100 is found covered in slime, through cliched characters, mind numbingly obvious decisions, all the way to a lazily put together denouement, Read more...

A bizarre mashup of Bubba Ho-Tep old folks going up against a Faustian villain.

There are a couple of positives, the friendships between characters seems genuine enough and Richard Brake is always a treat when he’s on form, as he is here. The problem is that’s about it for positives and when the negatives outweigh them so significantly, it’s hard not to switch off and find something else.

With the exception of a couple of gruesome deaths, this is a dull, simple affair that has little comedy and even fewer scares.

Movie Review: Bingo Hell (2021) ReviewStreaming News: Horror Movies Coming to Prime OCTOBER 2021

Critic Reviews:

...Bingo Hell is an acceptable, but unexceptional film. There’s enough slime, blood and jump scares to make it worth a watch. From a technical standpoint, it’s well done, but like many directors making the transition from shorts to features, Guerrero has issues with the film’s pacing that pull it down and make the first half drag somewhat.

– Voices From The Balcony

Bingo Hell has a lot going for it — excellent cast chemistry, a fiery lead in Barraza, a consistent tone and Guerrero’s creative visual sense. But the writing is flimsy, and all its assets never seem to point in the same direction, like the film is a truck that just can’t summon enough traction to get out of a rut.

– Decider

...Gurrero’s film is so fun and sometimes brilliantly macabre that the experience as a whole is as twisty, repulsive, and ultimately sweet as it needs to be, all fit with an ensemble that’s excellent from top to bottom, selling the humor and attitude before the craziness even begins to ensue.
