Wow, this was bad!
But wait, I am getting ahead of myself. I was initially lured in by the interesting movie cover/poster for this 2018 horror movie titled "Last American Horror Show". And being an avid horror fan, of course I sat down to watch the movie.
That was a mistake, because this was a massive waste of time. First of all, the movie is very low budget, and the production value of the movie shows that all over. I mean, you can even see the shadow of a guy holding the microphone throughout the majority of the introduction scene of the movie. And they uses vintage footage from the Vietnam war as well. Wow, just wow.
The story was pointless, and you really shouldn't torment yourself to sit through this. And it would have helped if the movie had an interesting character gallery. But that was not the case either.
If this was a horror show, no wonder it was the last!
It should be said, however, that the acting in the movie was, for the most parts, adequate and passable. But the fact that the actors and actresses had absolutely nothing to work with in terms of script or story was just staggering.
I am rating this movie a staggering 1 out of 10 stars. It was just abysmal to sit through. In fact, truth be told, I didn't manage to endure the entire movie, I must admit that I valued my time on this Earth a bit too much to keep going.
"Last American Horror Show" from writer and Michael S. Rodriguez came and went without any impact.

Some movies you just should skip entirely...
Arch Hall Jr.!?!
Beyond the three terror-filled tales that Last American Horror Show has to offer - Night of the Sea Monkey, Lamb Feed and Homewrecked - it also has horror royalty in the cast like Felissa Rose, Lynn Lowry and Arch Hall, Jr.
Yes, that's right, the star of Eegah and The Sadist is in this as the grandfather of an entire town of cannibals ready to sacrifice any folks that wander in. Between that and Felissa going on a date with a man who claims to be Christian and ends up being anything but - and oh yeah, Lynn Lowry dissecting a sea monkey with an electric carving knife - there's some fun stuff in here.
All of these stories started off as shorts which were assembled into an overall longer film with the Felissa-starring framing sequence.
Of course, it's in no way as great as Amicus films or Trilogy of Terror, but you know that going in. In the old video rental days, this would have been a fine fifth film for your five for five bucks for five nights stack. And really, that's high praise around these parts.
Awful, one of the worst films I have ever seen.
Saw this last night, read good things about it on this site but alas more rigged ratings on IMDB.
Firstly the film itself, two pound budget, if it cost more I can't see where they would have used it.
The acting, bad when it was bad, worse when it was worse. Now o don't mind cheap films, I have seen a lot of them but the acting in this was awful.
The stories ranged from awful to just plain bad, in fact none of them were really good.
Also the film makers should also realise that putting in cheap bloody effects will not take away t how bad this film is, also it didn't add anything to the movie either.
Avoid this film at all costs. I wish I could give it a no star rating.
