If you've ever wondered what a porn flick would be like if you took out the porn, here's your answer.
'Horat' has no plot, no point and no laughs, and why should it? I had no idea when I rented the DVD that it was originally a hard-core porno that was 'cleaned up' for a soft-core audience. What results is an embarrassingly tedious flick with absolutely no redeeming values. It uses the dumb Eastern European prototype (Horat/Borat) as an attempt to elicit giggles. Instead, it just reinforces how absolutely low on the intelligence scale humanity can go. Our evolution as a species has taken another hit with this piece of garbage.
This 'movie,' for lack of a better word, is a Borat rip-off in name only. Borat, for all its silliness, at least had a plot (AND a point), and, yes, even some laughs.
The early IMDb rating (based on 10 votes) for Horat is 9.1, a ludicrously inflated figure that was undoubtedly aided and abetted by votes from people connected to the flick, from producers to actors to crew. IMDb ratings are often notoriously unreliable because of this rampant padding by 'voters' who are serving their own interests.
There is something desperately wrong with our society when an appalling flick like this can be financed and distributed to general audiences while genuine, talented filmmakers can't get enough funding for even the lowest of low-budget films. (Note: I am not involved in film-making in any way, nor do I even KNOW any filmmakers.)
If you like looking at people engaging in endless, ridiculously phony soft-core sex, this sorry excuse for a 'movie' is for you. For those with a mental age above, say, 14, save your time.
