Horror Extreme Movie Catalog

David Heavener who plays the suspected killer in THE CATCHER has come through many Z movies, like Twisted Justice, Fugitive X, etc., to this ridiculously horrible horror film without scars. But after this one, well, he may just have to retire.
Monique Parent is awful in the role of the baseball's bigwig something or other and all she does most of the movie is parade around with her clipboard looking at all the doors. The director must have liked her butt, cause that's about all he throws at us for a good while. There's one shot in the locker room that shows about eight catcher's masks...how many catchers does this team have? They never mention in the movie that the psychotic dad killer even escaped or got out..they want us to think it's Heavener. The deaths are fairly gory, especially the up the you know what baseball bat. There's some cowardly little janitor who stumbles around like Igor. There is little if any suspense and the ending is outrageously bad. And as for Joe Estevez, I don't know how he missed out on the talent the rest of the family has, but here once again he screams, shouts and offers no inference of characterization at all.
Lame and lethargic, this is one catch you don't want to make!

This movie was just plain bad. It took two sittings to watch it as it literally put me to sleep. The script and direction are horrible, and the actors have zero energy, except for Joe Estevez, who tries really hard to inject some life into this dud. It's not even enjoyable in that bad movie kind of way. And Monique Parent keeps her clothes one throughout the entire movie. No T&A in this one. Save your time and money. My DVD was full of glitches as well, lots of digital artifacts and it freezes up during the credit sequence, which might actually be a good thing for those crew members whose names we don't see!
