(Reviewed by KingEched) - Okay let me just paint this picture for you. I go grab The Last Horror Film from work and I slap it on. I'm sitting there and the film is pretty much looking like a badly done Scream clone, when suddenly the screen goes staticy. When the screen clears up there is a man standing in front of the camera's view. He then explains that he rented this film before I did and taped over the thing with his own movie. He then goes on to say that his name is Max Power (wink to The Simpsons, at least that's what I took it as) and he has killed more then 50 people! So the film is just his day to day life as he goes around killing people and throughout the film the line of reality and fiction becomes more and more blurred. Is this really just a film, or did this guy tape over the thing with people actually being killed for real?

Right of the bat I was giving the film high marks for such a smart plot idea. It's not every film that turns the viewer into one of the main characters. Throughout the film Max talks to you and you can't help but talk back. At one point of the film Max even asks you why you are watching the film if you don't like what he is doing. My answer, "I'm still watching because I just can't get enough of you man."

That's right, I was cheering Max on! Why would I do such a thing you ask. I'll tell you why. The film does a fantastic job of making Max into a guy that you just can't help but love. It gives him a sense of humor that will make you laugh your head off. There are so many good bits in this film I had a hard time counting them all. Some of the better ones were his burning of the film that he taped over and his robbing line.

Max: And if you take the guys money the cops will think the motive was robbery.

That line just cracked me up.

The other thing it does to make Max a "nice guy" is having it show you not much of the murders. This film despite the title and the plot is actually shockingly light in blood and guts. The film will A: have Max strangle the person or B: have the camera pull away so you can't see the gory death. Like there was just a bit more then three drops of blood in the whole film, but some people still might find the strangulations disturbing.

Lastly, and this is one of the great high point of the film, it makes Max into a good guy by showing you that he doesn't really like what he is doing. Throughout the film Max tries to prove to you that his way of life is best. He's doing what he wants to do with his life while you are just doing as expected. You in the end will do nothing with your life and end up in a dead end job with none of your dreams coming true, but is Max's way of life really the best way? As Max comes to find out if you always do what you want to do you are going to step on some toes and you are going to hurt those around you. Max regrets what he has done and he wants you the viewer to forgive him. That is the real reason for why he has made this film, even though he doesn't want to admit it.

So this film has a grad A plot, grade A ant-hero, it's done shockingly well (by the end you just might start thinking that the film really is real), a slick sense of humor that will make you laugh pretty hard, and a fantastic ending. The ending is amazing! I'm not lying when I say the thing blew me away.

So I give this film a 10 out of 10 and say this is the best horror film of 2005! I say get it on DVD and after you're done seeing it, watch the making of to put your fears at rest.
