    I love you Phelous!!! You are my fav person on here! I could watch you all day you crack me up!!! Keep up the awesome reviews!!!!
  • nyarlathotepsama  - many thanks

    Wow! Thank God you got to this one and that the video got online so quickly! you see you just saved me from watching this very movie. Damn hard to find evil board games...why can't I ever find a game that has the possibility of killing me with each roll of the dice?

    Keep up the good work! I look forward to your videos Phelous, they greatly amuse me.

    Just get the right GM and you should be set.

    But I'm the GM/DM 'round these here parts... Maybe I should pawn the crown off to some other poor bastard.

    Okay so against all facts and logic I ended up watching this "movie" and I'm worse off for it. It wasn't amused, thrilled, frightened or even excited for a single minute during the whole thing. It only runs for about a 100 minutes or so, but it feels like you get stuck in a paradox loop that just keeps repeating. The dialog is nearly as painful as those Troll movies, you know the ones (hides his DVDs).

    From this point on I think I'll watch the movies that Phelous reviews... if I haven't already that is, so that I can truly feel blessed by the Bad Movie Gods. As I said above I always look forward to a new Phelous.

    Oh god... I saw this movie on the SciFi channel; it was so bad I thought it was one of their original movies. (Hi-yo!)

    I love how you have board games behind you in the room now. Nice touch.

    Also, Canadian Monopoly! Woohoo!
  • Jackass Mask

    Canadian Monopoly! Ha! The only version of the game where you play with actual currency.
  • Phelous
    avatar
    REALLY!? *runs off to spend monopoly money*
  • TomQuoVadis
    avatar
    Isn't their currency doing better right now?
  • CaptainAndy27
    SWEET Phelous has Nightmare, maybe you and Spoony should play together and why not invite Board James to boot.
  • TheListenerCanon
    Hey Phelous, did you made that shirt or was it one of your buddies?

    Oh no, a time loop. Now those people are going to keep dying over and over again. I'm Ian Stone flashbacks. (Even though the two premises are completely different)

    I saw this review on your site earlier. It's lookin' spiffy, Phelous.
  • Angrygamersoldier2010
    Wow...a horror movie that doesn't wrap up at the end...that has to be a new low. At least most of these terrible horror movie end at some point. Its like the writers thought it'd be more scary to just simply repeat the opening of the movie at the end...how very fucking creative...
  • TheBlackMage

    Wow Phelous! How did you get Soleil Moon Frye to appear in your video?
  • Fluffyman
    avatar
    Jumanji was even more terrifying than this film, and that was supposed to be for the entire family.

    Nice cameo by Punky BTW :)

    I'm surprised you didn't mention how Jason "won" by answering the cliched Liar's Riddle.
  • Phelous

    Meh it was worth cutting I thought.

    I especially love the part where they say it's from the Spanish Inquisition and all the cards are written in English instead of Spanish or even Latin.
  • DoomedTick
    avatar
    Interesting if true.

    Very good review, as always. Been watching you for a while.

    But now you've gotten me interested in this Punky. Who is she and is there more to see in ways of videos?
  • mrskippy
    avatar
    She runs the Channel Awesome twitter account. Which you would know if you listened to Transmission Awesome.

    Wasn't there another movie about a killer board Game recently? Something like Black Waters or something. Anybody know what I'm talking about? It had a goat man.
  • thatkidwiththepimples

    DRAMATIC SLOW-MOTION DICE ROLL!! That should be a Mortal Komedy fatality.
  • J_Conrady
    avatar
    Punky cameo!

    Great job, Phelous. "He's funny because he's stupid." = best line ever. :D
  • Roivas
    I can't believe how implausible this movie's premise is. Why would attractive women ever want to play a board game? Never mind a shitty board game created by designers who's only experience with them was ancient Monopoly.

    Does the movie actually just end with a fucking time paradox? That's lame even for D grade horror movies.
  • JustVashu
    it's not a paradox since there is no real contradiction, just a neverending loop of stupidity.
  • Phelous
    avatar
    Indeed, and yes it does just end with him destroying the universe by throwing it into a time loop.
  • HentaiGuy42
    Unless it's just him that's looping, in which case the rest of the universe would be fine...

    ...I doubt even a dragonfly witch could fuck the entire universe like that.
  • FullmetalNinja25

    This is only the 2nd time I believe Phelous didn't die at the end of a review.
  • NintendoFanboy
    avatar
    Well, he has to watch this movie in a time loop, so he might as well have died.
  • NintendoFanboy
    avatar
    Man, I wish it could be an hour ago, and I had never heard of this movie. ;)

    You now it's sad when the "family-friendly" movie you're ripping of is scarier! (Spiders...plants... :S )
  • JustVashu
    Excellent review. I guess all the time under the sun fried his logic. Obvious time loop waiting to happen. The witch pointing it out made it even funnier.

    I wonder if the witch herself remembers every single time she has granted that stupid wish.
  • Obscurus Lupa
    avatar
    "SLOW MOTION DICE ROLL!" This was awesome. :D Awesome cameo by Punky!!
  • LikaLaruku

    The art in that Jumanji cartoon series was evil. :X

    It's got all the depth of a student film.

    i've done some cameos but I think this is the biggest cameo i've done xD
    You'll have to wait to see more videos of me, coming soon :evil:

    Pure excitement abounds! Phelous has presented you well.

    His fans become your fans. But I'm sure you can hold your own in entertainment.
  • chickwiththeglasses

    Watched this one on Sci-fi channel. It sucked then and it sucks now. I mean, how stupid one has to be to wish themselves into a loop? Awesome review, btw! :)
  • Citizen Snips
    avatar
    Made worse by the fact that the witch basically points it out and gives him a second chance to not be an idiot and he goes along with it anyway.
  • Typhon
    LOL at "Smushes". :)
  • "I'm turned on by any girl as long as she's American."

    Hah. It sounds like something Bandit Keith would say. B) In America.
  • dayofnight
    Phelous,
