Coffin - Die Uhr tickt

The first thing to say was the acting was terrible, particularly the main bad guy and the woman in the coffin. I know some of it was down to the direction but anybody who makes Sarbo look like a true thespian must be bad. The story is all over the place and very badly filmed. If they truly spent £600,000 on this I would love to know what that was on, it feels and looks like a very cheap movie.

The main bad guy was so camp I was going to call him "hi de hi" but I love that show. The plot holes in the story would have me calling it Camenmbert - very cheesy.. Don't waste your money, if you have to see it wait until it's on a 12 o'clock showing on a TV channel that has no budget. For all my criticism I have seen worse.

Not one character acts like a normal human. Hercules has a moment when his character says to a woman " I can't believe a woman like you would date a loser like me" he's older than his Hercules character but it's ridiculous. The villain if you can call this little kid that is so over the top he makes Jack Nicholson's Joker seen like a portrayal of Abraham Lincoln. But that seems unfair since all the acting Is much like a kindergarten Christmas play. I'm not sure exactly why they didn't get the actual Iggy Popp for the villain but I'm convinced he would have been better than the tiny 50 year old man that has bangs Hanging down like a clinically depressed middle school goth girl. This movie was a waste of time and money, the plot while it's been done a million times was done so poorly it's funny and it's clear the ending was supposed to have a Shymalanian Sixth Sense sort of twist ending it seemed much more like an episode from Scooby Doo and it even has a pulled off the mask " I would have got away with it if it wasn't for those meddling kids" moment just far more contrived and much less fun.

Nice little thriller with a great twist that you are not expecting. Well done for a small, low budget film.

You might get a little lost in the plot over one particular point but that happens in all kinds of thrillers or mysteries. But it is nothing to make the experience unfulfilling.

Patrick Barnitt does a great job in his first starring role and has a great future ahead of him. Sorbo is convincing when he is on screen as is most of the cast. Good production value considering how little this film was made for.

Barnitt and Alonzo have to carry the story along and they do so with skill. Really impressed with Barnitt's performance.

Don't get me wrong, it's not American Beauty, but it's also not trying to be.

Would I pay $16 to see it in theaters? No. But if you're a fan of shows like CSI or Law and Order, or like the Saw movies (with less/no gore), this will be worth your 90 minutes.

Bruce Davison always adds to whatever project he is in. Sorbo is great (but not in it as much as you would think since he's trapped in a box). The other lead, Patrick Barnitt, does a great job (especially for an actor without a lot of credits). I didn't really buy the villain. Just thought it was a bit over the top. I understand maybe he was compensating for size or age, but I agree with the other user, it comes across as a bad impression of Heath Ledger's joker. The rest of the supporting cast does a good job at making even the small roles memorable.

Again, it might not be for everyone, but if you like crime periodicals or thrillers with a twist, this is a fun little movie.

Enjoy!

Around 13 to 14.5 minutes a Woman is seen in just a bra and underpants and after she gets dressed cleavage can still be seen.
