New Review from The Mort Report this week! Enjoy!
CREEP OUT
By Jeff Strand
Very original take on ventriloquist dummies.
I feel kind of conflicted on this one, to be honest. There was a depth to this one that outweighed the usual comedy horror that only Strand can deliver, because it actually delves a little deeper into a psychological side. And, while it was absolutely necessary for the journey of this story, I felt the pace was slower than I am used to from this author.
I can’t take anything away from the writer about the story itself. Though it took me a while to get into it, when the pieces started falling in place, I enjoyed it.
I can recommend this to the usual Strand fans with a warning that it is a little different than what you might expect, so make a mental adjustment that it starts off slower than usual.
4 stars
