The Ugly

Saw a clip of this on "Boogeymen: The Killer Compilation". Looks pretty damn good!

From what Ive gathered, it's about a young man posessed by "The Ugly", creatures that force him to kill. Eventually, he confesses and is locked up. Now, Dr.Karen Shoemaker wants to get through to him and starts visiting him in the hospital, and his previous life comes to us in flashbacks.

This is a fantastically dark film one of the better of the late 90s serial killer genre. The Ugly is a very gothic and has a bunch of cool subliminal cut shots. It was made here in New Zealand so maybe that's why I like it so much.... I wish NZ would make more movies like this there hasn't been any decent genre films for years. It really sucks because hepas of the actors have now gone back to Shortland Street (A really fucking terrible soap opera based around a hospital). But yeh definatley check it out its one of the better films to come out of New Zealand.

I enjoyed The Ugly too, though I still can't figure out how it made the cut to be on that Boogeymen comp (which I got for $3 in a used bin, making it almost the best $3 I've ever spent).

the one thing I don't get about the ''Boogeyman'' dvd is why isn't there more characters on it, or maybe they should've took stuff like ''the ugly'' and ''the guardian'' off and added Dr. Phibes,Jack Torrance,Dracula,Hannible Lecter,Ash ect.

I know Ash isn't a ''boogeyman'' but how can you not even mention Evil Dead?

haven't seen the ugly in forever, don't really remember how it goes.

boogymen also had some fairly crappy choices IKWYDLS for example. seems like they just wanted to take up space and make and easy buck

I never bothered to watch that compilation. Is it just clips or does it have some stories behind the making of the films ect?
