The Monkey’s Paw debuts on Chiller tonight at 9p and there is a reason why the network’s slogan is “Scary Good”. I sincerely don’t know the last time I saw a horror movie that terrified me as much as this one. The death scenes are so scary good that I am not sure how I am going to sleep tonight.
Jake Tilton (C.J. Thomason) is struggling to make ends meet; so when he is given a monkey’s paw that will grant him three wishes, he accepts it. Not believing in the power of it, he wishes for a car that is sitting outside. When he goes to look at the car, he sees the keys inside and takes it for a ride. While driving around with his BFF, Tony Cobb (Stephen Lang), he sees a alligator in the road and swerves to hit it. He winds up hitting a tree and killing Tony, who went through the windshield. He decides to use the paw to bring back his best friend, but Tony is not the same. Tony came back to life, but his soul didn’t return. So now he is going on a murderous rampage and there is no way to stop him. Will Jake find a solution to his problem before it is too late or will the Monkey’s Paw win this fight?
You will just have to tune in for a movie that is as much horrifying as it is thrilling.
