Syo Kennex How does one review a film that has so many flaws, but ends up being just so damn... amazing?Flaws:First of all, this film really did not seem to care about continuity. Within the first scene, we see Adam decapitate someone's arm, and he is entirely covered in blood. Within the next scene, he's only got some spray on him, and then he's covered in blood again. There are many instances like this, and it's obvious to the viewer. But - as obvious as it is, you just don't care! There are obvious, glaring flaws in the continuity, but they just don't matter. There aren't many people that will watch this for anything other than the fact it is a gory horror film - that's it's charm.Secondly, the acting is... not so great. The film itself is very symbolic, and seems to have put more importance on getting that right, more than having the actors do stuff through the acting. But as bad as the acting seems, the characters are all... amazing. They all felt real. They all felt human. They all felt like someone you could find in the street and not some horror film character who is destined a bloody death.There's something strange about this film - it's flaws make it what it is, the flaws make it... good. The importance with the flaws is what makes this film what it is and that's something that not many film makers can do.The only serious flaw was the CGI was really bad and really broke the overall feel of the film, but again, some of the CGI scenes were really well done, and it looked really good - especially in the scenes with the old film reel effect on top of it. That did look really good, and that was well done, but the majority of it made me chuckle. The story of this film, is romantic in a way. A man goes on a hellbent demonic killing spree to get revenge on his wife, and although it may not seem romantic, the ending, the meaning, the subjectivity of it all really brings it all together in a way that I don't think a romance film could ever really do. Adam struggles, he fights, he just wants to see his wife.The symbolism behind it is just something I can't explain, I don't know how to explain it, but it's there throughout the film. You can see it, you can feel it, and you can really feel what the film wants you to feel, as long as you're not too caught up in the gorefest. It took me two goes watching it to really fully get the symbolism, and honestly, I'm not even sure if I have 100% gotten it.There is so much I could talk about within this film, but I'm not going to. I'm just going to say, if you like gore films, and you don't mind reading subtitles, definitely give this a watch! I was taken aback and totally stunned by this, and I don't think I would have enjoyed this film as much if it had been done in any other way than it was. Thank you, to everyone who made this film. It's seriously one of the best out there - and very probably, true to its tag line as the bloodiest film ever.
DrGordn This film is absolute trash!!! it looks like trash, the dialogue is trash, the story is trash, the acting is trash....you get the point.IT'S TRASH!!! if you want a "good" trashy blood soaked movie with some action watch "Story of Ricky" or "Braindead" but what ever you do don't watch this steaming pile of....
udar55 A musclebound drifter named Adam Chaplin (Emanuele De Santi, also the director) wanders through Heaven City looking for the man who killed his girlfriend. Pushing him in his quest is a small demon that crawls out of a upside down crucifix scar on his back. His target, a deformed guy named Denny who runs the city and survives on the chemical Neurocril 3, hires a bunch of goons to take this threat out before he can reach him. Existing like some kind of live action anime film, this is a total 180 from the film reviewed above. De Santi obviously had limited funds, but goes above and beyond to infuse his SOV film with a sense of style. It also helps that it might be one of the bloodiest movies I've ever seen. The action is pretty much non-stop and keeps getting crazier and crazier until the finale where Chaplin is making heads explode in gory-soaked scenes that would make Ricky Oh faint. It is going to change your life or challenge THE EXORCIST as an all-time horror great? No. But if you are looking for some insane skull smashing, this is the champ.
dasa108 Italia offered such of the best horror movies in the last 50 years. When Italian filmmakers took some movie genre (western), they recreate the genre in such a way that become better than the original. If we watch spaghetti westerns, then is hard to see American western without the music of Ennio Morricone and the cinematography of Sergio Leone. This movie is like a western. We see a history with love, revenge, and even the bad gay has codes with his family and the society. De De Santi's brothers made a movie full of love for horror, western, action and martial arts. If we go deeper, this kind of movies is a signature. The movie define your career. And the De Santi's brothers will make the best gift for the people who like what is our life and soul. The music, the photography, the special effects (the japan movies like Machine Girl and Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl are Bambi in comparison), show the best lesson: if you have a low budget, you can d miracles. And this movie is a miracle.
