INCUBUS is an entirely sub-standard horror film set in some kind of abandoned scientific research institute deep in the woods (which still has electricity, of course). Into this setting stumble a group of unsuspecting twentysomething characters who proceed to get themselves bumped off by an evil presence lurking within the building. It's hardly the sort of thing to set the world on fire, is it?
Inevitably these days, INCUBUS turns out to be an almost unwatchable film. Everything about it is horrible: the direction, which tries to be edgy, and the script, which is just devoid of imagination or intellect. For most of the time I was laughing at the ridiculous dialogue, such as when characters blurt out "I'm down here!" and the reply comes "Are you down there?". Did anyone even edit or proofread it?
There are plentiful errors in the storyline, too, such as characters who randomly disappear only to suddenly show up later, and realism is virtually nil. The acting is quite poor, particularly from the single-expressioned Tara Reid, although I have to admit that Akemnji Ndifernyan does his best with the role he's given and at least he doesn't die first. The gore effects are cheap and schlocky and there's zero here to distinguish it from all the rest of the decade's trash, so it's a film destined for the bin and nowhere else.
