InDyingArms For a personal standpoint, I've personally heard about this film multiple, multiple times - Hearing mixed reviews, mostly either saying this film is just flat out awful, or that this movie is actually decent. The film overall just follows two journalists who're after a story that'll succeed heavily for them. They end up following the story of the alleged "Teardrop killer" or in this case the antagonized clown killer we also follow. From there on out, both Mark and Jen find out more and more of this clown. Firstly, this film took the interesting approach of a story; This film however prevailed that to be a bit pointless. This story isn't the worst possible one out there, but for the most part it's showcasing cliché aspects. There's been countless films about detectives following cases leading to more than they bargained for, this time, now, we have a gore-hound film following such. The journalist characters we follow aren't the worst pair, it could be much, much worse. I found Mark to be a likable, goofy guy - though at times he turns a performance of being funny at either the most ineffective times, if not, it's just ineffective in general. Admittedly however there are times he lightens the mood, or simply prevails. Jen is a typical bad-ass, independent - like chick who's so involved in her work to where she leads some of the stupidest decisions - Once again seen plentiful times. The acting in this film, for a considerable "micro- budget" horror flick? It is what it is, there are some really low points throughout I feel, especially through the detectives; However that's what's to be expected through these fun little films, know what you're getting into. The gore in this movie is the absolute lead, however. It's a decent display of absolute carnage through random characters; Literally. This film throws the most random, unnecessary display of people who're there just for the sake of dying. There'll be parts of the film you see quite literally a minute to two of a random person getting slaughtered, said random person literally has no point of being there, was never mentioned, and shall never be seen again. For what's displayed, the kills weren't the most creative; Though that wouldn't be fair at all, judging by the fact we have a clown with a novelty-sized cleaver. As the body count rises, the deaths grow less, and less intriguing, I feel. However the film takes that and flips it completely around through the closing run-time, delivering the concluding intriguing, back to unique-like kills. The pacing of the film is another displayed topic that gets flipped - The beginning of the film paced decently, around the middle to closing thirty minutes it grows slower, and slower, focusing more upon the story, of which, as said, feels overly-done and clichéd. However around the end we get a more quicker, perhaps even rushed feel; The ending feels rushed compared to the rest of the movie. There are a few ordeals that happen that just happened for the sake of the viewer to be pulled back in for a split second, it felt. In conclusion, the hype. Is it all there? Is this the goriest, most disgusting NC-17 film? No. I've seen another film by the title "Sweatshop" (2011) that, to me, proved more effective. This film follows like it - Clichéd, pointless plot that is there just for the excuse of killing masses. 100 Tears follows closely, however took the unique - like approach of delivering a story; As said many times said story is clichéd, and really does nothing for me personally. Fumbled dialog, acting flaws to a minor degree, all masked by a clown with a story .. and a massive cleaver. Would I recommend watching this film? Despite this review sounding as if I'm hating on it - I don't. I WOULD however watching this film. On an overall spectrum view of this film, the hype is a letdown. On a spectrum view upon a gore-hound, this film delivered. If you're looking for carnage, 100 tears delivers. If you're looking for minor - slight comedy? 100 tears delivers. However if you're looking for something totally new? You won't find it here.

tdrish You have to understand something, and get this straight in your noggin...just because a movie was made doesn't mean that the crew knew what they were doing when they made it. Period! This is the case with 100 Tears, which is so horribly bad and awful, that you have to love or laugh at the fact that at least they tried to make a slasher movie with twice the body count as your average slasher flick. Body count? Over 30, check! The rest of the movie? Overlook the bad lighting, cruddy story line, bad casting, horrible choreography, and endless line of errors with the film, and you're in for a lot of fun! We got a demented clown on the loose, and he likes to go around swinging his giant meat cleaver at various parts of the body. Heads are cut vertically and horizontally in half, guts are spilled, and gallons of blood is shed. Now, you don't have to watch this. Personally, I would question the sanity of any one who would want to sit through this shart of a movie. It should satisfy gorehounds, but that's about it. What doesn't work, however, is the nutty azz investigation with the detectives, and for three reasons. Reason 1: No detective would go after a bloodthirsty clown with a weapon like that. Let the FBI deal with this matter, you just stick with the crime lab. Reason 2: No detective would investigate a crazed clown without a weapon of their choice, which is the case with these goons. So if your expecting a shoot out at the end, you will be disappointed. ( You'll be disappointed by the ending anyway, trust me.) Reason 3: It's barely even an investigation! There's no forensics, nothing! Detectives are so useless, I'd lay them off, at least that way, they would be safe from this lunatic clown that makes IT look like a Disney Jr character. So, if you want to be branded for life, have at it with this goofy horror flick. But, I will say again, don't say you weren't warned about the ending. ( As far as the beginning, you won't have to wait long for the blood to spill.)

Masked Superstar Mr. X This horror film surprised me, because I'm not big on clowns so I wasn't sure how enjoyable it would be for me. But, after just watching the beginning with all the killings Gurdy the Clown (Jack Amos) did I knew it was going to be a great film. Which it was! Jack Amos portrayed the character of Gurdy the Clown very well. Raine Brown plays Christine Greaston. Raine did a great job in playing her character who at times gets a little crazy. Both of them are a lot of fun to watch and follow as they create tons of carnage throughout the movie! I think the beautiful Georgia Chris was cast well for her role too.I would not say this film is slow paced like some have mentioned. In fact, I would say it is perfectly paced and with a lot of action. They really pack a lot of killings through out the film. That's where FX expert and director Marcus Koch comes into play. Marcus is an FX specialist and does a great job with the killings, they look very realistic. I think this is what helps separate this film from other Independent horror films. I enjoyed the story which was written by Joe Davison. Overall a very well put together film.

Allan Brunke I loved the concept of this movie, but the low budget and half-assed acting was harsh on this title.I had a feeling going into this film that I wasn't going to enjoy it at all, but I was actually quite entertained. I would really enjoy seeing this movie remade with a bigger budget and some actors that can actually show emotion.The only showing of acting passion was from the character that played the killers daughter, she really portrayed the part well. Other than one actor, the rest of the cast was pretty slow and ineffective.All in all, I think this movie is worth the watch if you enjoy gore, but if you're looking for acting, I wouldn't waste your time.
