Slytherclaw90 Compound Fracture is a real gem of independent entertainment. I really liked this film for a variety of reasons. First, the cast - Tyler Mane (Michael Myers, Halloween I & II), Derek Mears (Jason Voorhees, Friday the 13th), Muse Watson (Ben Watson aka The Fisherman, I Know What You Did Last Summer), and Leslie Easterbrook (Mama Firefly, The Devil's Rejects and Callahan from the Police Academy series) - all knocked it out of the park. I was even pleasantly surprised by the actors/actresses I was not familiar with. Renae Geerlings (who happens to be quite the looker...good job, Tyler!) and Alex Saxon were excellent, as well. Second, the story is great. Not your normal run- of-the-mill horror script that's been done a hundred times. It actually made me want to do some research into the occult themes/rituals and Viking history displayed in the movie...very cool! Lastly, the pace of the film is set just right. I did not feel myself getting bored at all and I felt the right amount of tension that comes with a good slow-burn thriller. Overall, Compound Fracture is a really good movie and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good time. Definitely not a time- waster!

creepercastmember2013 Where do I begin with this review? First off I love it, I truly believe that this film Compound Fracture has the ability in the next decade to become a true gem in the movie business! A lot of things go good with this film most notably using Derek as the main antagonist which doesn't surprise me given Derek is an amazing villain and having Tyler as the protagonist which we haven't seen, Tyler also is a great villain (Sabortooth and Michael Myers). Muse Watson is actually a favorite of mine since he played Mike Franks on NCIS and I just love that guy! This film really isn't classified as horror but an action/suspense but many of the scenes near the end with Derek I actually jumped a few times cause the makeup that he had on and the bullet hole in his head made him genuinely creepy no offense Derek. I talked with Renae and asked her if you guys thought if Muse actually went crazy ha. Another thing I loved the fight scenes with Tyler and Derek, the brutal stuff, getting choke slammed on a car, getting thrown into stuff, Renae getting knocked out ext. The action was really intense and the emotional moments with Brandon and Michael was good too having Michael being Brandons uncle and how close Michael and Brandons mom were close like the film hints at (makin Michael a high school diploma being home-schooled). The touching moments Michael has for his family really makes up for the brutal and intense moments. Michael really has a love for his family even though you see hell break lose with Dereks character. Everything fits together perfectly and its a film where I will watch it again and again and again and never get sick of!!CF gets a 4.5/5 stabs

jfs6355 Independent film is no longer synonymous with being bad. Tyler Mane has changed the recipe. You have to start with a nearly flawless script. Then rework it until all the inconsistencies are gone. Add three iconic killers, Tyler Mnae, Derek Mears and Muse Watson to the mix. Surround them with a core of incredible supporting actors. Season with just a hint of dark humor and a vigorous splash of gore. Simmer in a fortified compound for ninety minutes while slowly turning up the heat. Watch as the terror comes to a final boil. In the end you get to feast on not only one of the best supernatural thrillers of the year, but on one of the best movies of the year.

Kay Cravener (crashdummie_63) While Compound Fracture reaches more into the thriller range than horror, it still manages to create a creepy, isolated environment with a few good scares while weaving a twisted tale around the Wolffsen family. The story was interesting and not the typical rehash of stories already told one thousand times. It does well to not lead you directly to the ending and keeps you guessing. Most of the characters have depth and their personal struggles are shown juxtapose to the real threat lurking around them.I found Compound Fracture to be a very good film, that was even better the second time around. The writer included little intricacies and allusions that I had not picked up or even noticed the first time watching. If you are tired of seeing the same old thriller/horror movie with one dimensional characters and story and are looking for something unique to refresh the genre, Compound Fracture is one movie you do not want to miss.
