Bunnyman is the story of a group of friends on their way back from a spontaneous weekend trip to Las Vegas, and while driving through the remote regions of southern California they suddenly find themselves in a sickening game of cat and mouse with a five ton dumptruck and, when looking for help, stumble upon a nightmarish family who takes pleasure in dismembering and eating as many of the kids as possible.

Have an appreciation for horror with shades of thriller, slasher can be done well as well. So despite hearing a lot of negativity, 'Bunnyman's' premise did really intrigue. Plus the cover was an attention-grabbing one. Really wanted to like it and for it to not be another waste of decent potential. Watching it, unfortunately 'Bunnyman' turned out to be exactly that...a waste of decent potential. Not how to execute an intriguing idea. It's not irredeemably awful by any stretch, there is one good thing. Sadly eclipsed by the numerous things 'Bunnyman' gets catastrophically wrong. Some unintentional humour that was just cheesy and irritating, the attempts at seriousness felt misplaced and the incoherence of the editing and the dialogue make it very difficult to take it seriously and the horror elements were predictable, not scary and too tame, no matter how much gratuitous blood effects it threw in. Lets get the good things out of the way first. The best thing about 'Bunnyman' is the villain's look, it is great. So cool and menacing, not goofy at all.Uniformly the acting ranges from very bad to truly terrible, lots of histrionics and an equal amount of phoning in. Their cringe-worthy, unintentionally silly dialogue (one deserves a prize if they succeed in not bursting out laughing when they're not meant to, that is a challenge), annoying characters with stupid and illogical decision-making and behaviours and indifferent direction gave them no favours. Neither did the story, which is paper thin and much of it doesn't make any sense, with scenes that bear no relevance. There is no tension or suspense here, no surprises, no creativity, no wit and the only thing that is scary is the look of the villain and the scare factor ends there. The kills are un-creative, instead of biting the nails one is shrugging their shoulders, and the whole horror atmosphere feels tame and leans towards being dumb.'Bunnyman' is an eyesore visually. With the lighting and camera work, it seemed to striving for the showing off or experimenting with supposedly arty to them feel but instead it comes off amateurish and nauseating. The editing is incoherent. Cannot remember the music, other than its over-bearing intrusiveness.Overall, not irredeemable but very bad. 2/10 Bethany Cox
Bunnyman is a throwback to the old school film making when starting filmmakers had to rely on imagination to make these kinds of movies, not millions of dollars. Bunnyman is an example of what can accomplished on a very limited budget, with limited actors on basically one location. The filmmakers know how to tell a odd yet compelling story with visually arresting imagery and apparently zero resources.
Where do I even begin with this movie? The first thing I noticed was that the sound was atrocious. While the sound effects were extremely loud, the voices of the characters were barely audible. I was constantly turning the speakers up and down in order to hear or avoid being deafened by this movie. The second thing I noticed about this mess was the appalling acting. Not a single person in this film could act. Their exaggerated facial expressions and outbursts were just laughable and certainly not believable. Did I really spent £3.99 on this?! So half way through I decided that it must be a comedy horror and that I am surely taking this movie way too seriously...but I was so wrong. This movie neither tried to make me laugh nor tried to scare me, which is a shame because I genuinely expected much more from this low budget "horror" flick. There is one particular scene in which one of the group members is struck down and killed by a man wearing a ridiculous bunny costume, wielding a pathetic looking chainsaw. After we see that she is clearly deceased, her chest moves up and down. She is BREATHING. I could not believe that this movie was even made, let alone spawned not one, but TWO sequels. Finally, I want to conclude by warning anyone who is even slightly entertained by the idea that this movie could possibly be a fun watch. Boring, lame, cringe-worthy and down right silly are a few adjectives that spring instantly to mind when I think of this movie. Save your money, time and attention!
Michael's got Halloween, Leprechaun has Saint Patrick's Day etc. and now we have Bunnyman who owns Easter. My buddies and I watch horror films every time a Holiday comes rolling around. We never had a movie to watch for Easter until Bunnyman. it's a fun movie to watch, and doesn't take itself too seriously, which is good considering the title of the film. Although I'm not sure why the title is so strange to hear when you consider we are currently bombarded by films called BATman, SPIDERman etc. so why not a Bunnyman thrown into the mix. it's a very surreal film, with a creative backbone and spirit. We have a psychotic killer in a bunny suit driving a dumb truck with a half dead girl in the trunk. Who thinks of things like this?
