xxmrsqueenxx-92-157965 I wanted to turn it off from the start but stopped myself from doing so because I wanted to see what happened. I wanted to know what they were. From the title I just assumed they were zombies or something, but I was wrong. The story line is the same story that we have been seeing and hearing for years. I sit here all of the time wondering when they are going to come up with new ideas. They keep making the same boring stuff over and over and over again. *yawn* Anyway, the acting was so bad that I wonder if they even know how off key and bad they actually sound when they are saying their lines. Honestly, I don't know what was worse, the boring over used story line, the bad acting or the biker dude's ugly fake hair. Oh well, if you want a good movie, this isn't it. If you want to waste some time, this is the movie for you. Bad, just bad.
Travis I love to watch horror movies. I watch them if they are bad or good, usually even the worst movies have something to redeem themselves. That is not the case with this movie. When watching it I kept wondering if this was a group of university students that got together and did this as their end of year project. Here are some of the points I had issue with.Plot: I am not sure there was much of one. Had they gone with the biker gang or the killers they might of had something going but this was just a jumbled mess. No idea where the actors were going or what they were doing there. No idea who the killers were. No idea what the story behind Boot Heel New Mexico was. Characters: No back story to any characters in the movie at all. The little back story they did give doesn't make sense. One had fought in a war and said that "Charlie" had been to a village. That got me to wondering if this was supposed to have taken place in the 70s but the cloths and hair don't look like it to. No idea who the good guys or bad guys were.Acting: Wooden would be the best way to describe the acting. It felt like they were reading from a prompt off screen. The biker leader I think was supposed to be scary but he did not come across that way. The best acting were the "killers" because they had no lines and you couldn't see their faces.intangibles: Most B movies throw in lots of gore or nudity to make up for other things that are lacking. This movie had little gore and no nudity. Sometimes a show is funny or for some reason or another makes you feel like your time wasn't wasted. This has none of that.
Lelio Mulas Well, that was interesting. The very first moments looked decent, with a somewhat retro look. But as soon as the characters open their mouth you realize you're in for a treat. Sound editing is terrible, you can't hear half of the lines, and the other half is people telling each other to shut up or chill out (duude). Dialogues are below 5 years old writing. Camera work is atrocious, some of the very few thrills in this bore-fest are courtesy of the cameraman struggling with focus. And losing miserably. The editing is lame. I just began to mentally trim the footage to accelerate the pacing, leaving behind minutes and minutes of awkward silent people blank staring, panting and gasping, looking around, while I was waiting for a line or a reaction to happen. My god... Then acting. Tell me about it. 'Great acting' someone said, holy cow... They are abysmal, all of 'em, with a special award for the guy in a yellow t-shirt (sluggishly dragging around like he hadn't any idea what he was doing) and the biker chief (desperately trying to be cool in a Samurai Cop wig). Storywise, it's a mess. Girl gets missing (we couldn't care less about her, 3 minutes screen time), friends freak out (kinda) and try to find her, they stumble upon drug courier bikers, they argue, they escape, they find refuge in a ghost town, the bikers follow them, cannibal creepy inbred people, almost everybody dies by stupidity. There is no tension whatsoever! The pacing is all off, slow and helpless, the bikers are not menacing, the 'eaters' could have been a redeeming point for the movie if there was any attention to details, maybe even some self aware irony (we're playing with 50 years old tropes, guys). The plot doesn't progress, it percolates like garbage juice. Even the gore is missing!Maybe they tried, maybe it was a joke. What remains is a mess of a movie, some occasional funny-bad moment (the screaming scene, as previously noted by other reviewers: hilarious) and lots of boredom and frustration. I somehow sat through all of it, but I don't recommend this experience to anyone.
David Cromer Low budget movies are one thing, but total lack of acting talent is another. Usually you can find one "actor" that has a modicum of chops, but this is ridiculous. It's as if no one has ever acted a lick. Probably none of them have and they are all friends/relatives of the director. I could've done better and I'm sure I did even in grade school plays.Too many other movies to watch to waste 90 minutes on this train wreck.I would say I've seen worse, but I'm drawing a blank.I will say remember the director's name: Johnny Tabor. That way you can avoid anything else he may have the misfortune of writing and/or directing.
