Jeanie (Diane Foster) isn't herself lately, ever since her husband
Lance (D'Andre Noiré) has disappeared - and caring for her, her best
friend Carol (Kelly Grant) promises to help her go looking for Lance, even though at
first thw two have little idea where to look. Enter Lance's best friend,
conspiracy theorist (Zach Kanner), who claims to have a clue to Lance's
whereabouts - but then links it to the legend of the Jackalope (James B.
Cline), a were-rabbit-like creature able to take control of the local
bunny population with entirely evil motives. And it's true, there have
been a handful of freak murders of late that would kind of fit a local
legend about the Jackalope from 150 years ago ... but then again, killer
bunnies? Really? So of course, Jeanie and Carol label Sam as just crazy -
until they're attacked by a little bunny obviously possessed by something,
and why then not the Jackalope. They want to warn the authorities about
this, but Easter's just around the corner, and the town has its big annual
Easter celebration, so the mayor (Adam Slemon), so the mayor just laughs
the women off. Jeanie and Carol run across Megan, an experienced Jackalope
hunter, and the three try to device a plan to smoke out the Jackalope,
which ultimately results in them joining the Easter party - and then the
bunnies attack ... Ok, this movie takes quite a few hints from Jaws,
but puts them in an utterly silly context to create something pretty
outlandish. And while the humour in this film is in general not exactly
subtle, there is some nice satire interwoven with the sometimes crude
punchlines. And even though this is first and foremost a comedy, director
Diane Foster is also well-versed in horror to create tension where
thension's needed, add the occasional jump scare and not shy away from
violence and gore, to make this one a pretty enjoyable and rather
hilarious genre ride.
