foamcleaner I expected a lot from this because I read the other reviews. However, 'Auf bösem Boden' was a total letdown. It bored my right from the start and after 20 minutes I fast-forwarded it. I haven't seen a more tedious, artificial film recently. The acting and dialog gave me stomach cramps; everything was so staged I just couldn't bear watching it. Usually, Austrian movies have a very special kind of humor to them. This film hasn't. It's almost as if the filmmaker wanted to be his work so 'different' that it just turned out flat and weak. If you're looking for a good, fun-to-watch Austrian/German horror film, I'd recommend 'Rammbock'.
trashgang I visited Germany a while last year, conventions, shopping and holiday so it was time to catch some movies coming Germany/Swiss/Austria that aren't available in our country. Packed with a few bags this is the first one I watched as a double disc edition. The storyline is simple, girl wants that her boyfriend buys her a loft. But the guy don't want it to buy but after a while he did but things get wrong. He's very aggressive and he ends up killing some one, won't spoil it. But things get worser. It is a funny but also a hard storyline. the blood flows sometimes but it is the acting and the editing that makes this movie one of a kind. It's spoken in German but it do has his English subs. It isn't horror at all, sometimes it made me think of the funny scene's in Natural Born Killers. Anyway, a simple storyline but worth watching if you aren't offended easily.
PimpMax 'On Evil Grounds' clearly shows, what is possible if you are a passionate filmmaker. Without large budget, Peter Koller made it to create an absolutely extraordinary movie, which contains new, funny and sometimes absurd ideas. The good cast leaves no doubt about that movie, especially Kari Rakkola in his role as a psychopathic but pitiable killer is just perfect.I saw the movie and the director at the 'Diagonale' film festival in Graz and I was thrilled by such a great genre mix. Solid trash horror elements mixed with totally funny scenes make 'On Evil Grounds' a movie that you want to see again.Thumbs up for the young digital film-making community!
bhjp2001 'On Evil Grounds' is a great popcorn fun flick to watch! The genre being grindhouse/a bit horror-thriller/comedy delivered in a 70's Italo-Western look, I enjoyed watching this independent movie. What really caught my attention though, was the fact - I happened to learn about it afterward - that the apparent budget was only 50K (ok,...Euros, but still)! It did catch my attention, because the on screen production value compares to that of much higher budgeted films. Me, being an independent filmmaker myself, I have to give 'hands up' to the crew for achieving this. I suppose the reason it only gets a high 7 out of 10 from me has mainly to do with the script!
