Storyline

As a child Jack Brooks witnessed the brutal murder of his family. Now a young man he struggles with a pestering girlfriend, therapy sessions that resolve nothing, and night classes that barely hold his interest. After unleashing an ancient curse, Jack's Professor undergoes a transformation into something not-quite- human, and Jack is forced to confront some old demons... along with a few new ones.

Critics consensus

“A sincere but sometimes-excessive send up of low-rent horror hokum, Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer features some sharp laughs and features a scene-stealing performance by Robert Englund.”

It's the excruciating wait for anything to happen that makes "Jack Brooks" so frustrating.

RTBoxoffice MagazineOct 18, 2008

An old-school horror movie with nary a digital effect, Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer is about exactly what its title implies -- a dude named Jack, who slays monsters.

RTVarietyOct 18, 2008

Indie effort evidences more energy than wit, and spends too much time on set-up before a slam-bang pay-off.

Perfectly entertaining schlock with more practical monster effects than it needed to have that would currently be related to being a SYFY exclusive.
