Violent Shit (1989)
Saturday night fun, Sunday morning regret.
We have just finished popping the popcorn; the basement was filled with friends, alcohol and beautiful women.
You know what we had to do now.
Either crack open the Twister board and coat it with Vaseline.
Or
Pop in one of the worst films ever created by human hands.
I think that we will have to go with number two. There seems to be a couple of people in the room that hasn't had the sheer enjoyment of viewing this film. Plus we have already played out the first idea, too many times.
This movie is not for the standard cultist. It's reserved for only the proud few people that may be able to locate a copy. It's not a film that you find your self stumbling across in your local video store. It must be searched for, if you are lucky enough to find a bootleg copy of it, then your ready to go. Somebody in the room just suggested if we wanted to see a cult film try Evil Dead 2.
And then it was silent.
It was an eerie silence that filled the room. It was a moment that felt as if it were lingering in dead silence for several minutes. Eyes turned to him. I felt bad for him. The sharks were closing in, and there were no life guards to be present. He has just killed himself and everybody knows it. Including him.
What's so special about this film?
Nothing.
It's a bad script if any, bad actors, horrible camera work and it may be shot on VHS or BETA. Our main character is named Karl the Butcher, but it's not present which side we're rooting for. The only thing that holds this film up is the fact that with no budget, it has some of the greatest gore sequences ever committed to tape. If you are looking for gore then, you better find this film. Other then that, you wouldn't be interested. This film also has led way for sequels. Part two deals with Junior and three has to do with a whole army of Butchers. You won't be disappointed by the sequels either; they also have bad actors, no script and plenty of gore.
If you're ready for fun filled excitement, a smart and compelling plot.
Rent something else.
But, if you are looking for gore, then you have found the king. Just open the gates to its castle and enjoy.
Outside Ozona (1998)
Outside Ozona, the Hollywood blueprint on Cliche film making.
We find ourselves just outside the small town of Ozona, What now?
Several characters asking the same question, in a film written and directed by J.S. Cardone. A great collection of notable actors and actresses wonderfully holding together a script that lacked not in originality but mostly in thought.
Where did they go wrong?
Printing it on celluloid is one answer.
But beyond that, there were several wonderfully written characters that on their own, could have held up perfectly in other films. It was as if the writer, had ideas for several films and threw them into a feature length blender named Ozona. If the writer had maintained the characters separately there may have been some other notable features available rather than this.
Now we are sitting at home watching a film that should be instead, the film school blueprint to Hollywood cliches. I do give the actors or actresses that were in this film the chance to remove it from their resume, and continue on with their lives in hopes of rebuilding their careers.
In my personal advice, save your money, rent... a good film... Any other video on the shelf will do, please just avoid this one.
