Plot: A detective decides to figure out why the local laundry-folding machine keeps eating people. Based on a story by Stephen King.
Review: Did you read that plotline? Let me bold it for you:
A detective decides to figure out why the local laundry-folding machine keeps eating people.
It kind of blows my mind that this is even a film. You would think the plot would be all of ten minutes long.
Some Guy: That laundry-folding machine just ate somebody.
Protagonist: Maybe nobody should go near that machine.
Some Guy: Then how will we fold all this laundry?
Somehow, Tobe Hooper managed to milk 106 minutes out of this idea. And you know what? I enjoyed every minute of it. Don't get me wrong: I had no idea what was going on. This is probably because I couldn't understand a single word Ted Levine said. He has the deepest voice in the world and, for some insane reason, he had the most lines.
Who Should See It: Fans of gore, cheesiness.
Who Shouldn't See It: Anyone afraid of laundry machines.
