Odd choice of title- it doesn't have anything to do with Village of the Damned. But suspect this has more to do with low budget distribution than it does the film makers.

This film is a lot of fun! Solid opening, great score and an assembly scene jam-packed with extras- I was surprised!

As the situation develops we see some great characters emerge. Particularly the two lead actors and the teacher of the creepy children.

You can clearly see the effort put into the choreography, the humour and grass roots approach to film making.

This groups of mates got off their arses and made a movie! I wondered how these guys grew and developed so looked them up.

One is now a top level choreographer and has won a Taurus Award! Others are stunts on some massive films.

IMDb is an unfortunate congregation for "have-a-go" film critics who have little comprehension of what makes a great film. So this film is getting a tough time. But if you can look at what these guys have created, there is more story, depth and motivation in these action scenes than the majority of modern action movies.

On that basis alone, it's worth watching.

Perfect opening... Perfect direction... This is Sergio Leone's masterpiece.

The characters are pitched so perfectly. All of them flawed and fascinating. The shootouts are explosive and glorious!
