Skinford: Death Sentence

I had never heard of this film or it's sequel until it popped up on STAN. I wish Australia would make more films like this. Action, comic book like, colourful characters. The acting was consistent and the cinematography was amazing.

This is pretty funny in places and the acting is actually decent. Everything else on Blackpills is awful and makes me cringe. Seriously Skinford, You Got Trumped, Playground, A Girl is a Gun are good... the James Franco one is OK... every other show on that app and there's like 100 of them all stink so bad... what are you doing Blackpills?

This movie was actually quite interesting to watch. Well, the most part of it.

It has style and some unique originality to it. Its gory, dark, messy, yet light and quick.

The plot is not bad, even though it falls flat in the end, it is exciting in the beginning and initially kept me guessing, which in turn kept me watching.

I also feel like characters weren't savored well enough, there were actually multiple interesting ones, so exploring them could've made the movie much better.

I stumbled upon this one randomly, as I usually do, I didn't read the annotation or watch the trailer, so I went in without knowing what awaits and it was worth it this time.

If only it had a better ending to it, it could've been a real gem. Setup is quite cool. Unfortunately, the ending is weak and superficial.

I still enjoyed it. It surely deserves a higher score than it has now.

It's just a touch - or rather the touch! But no pun intended and let's not get ahead of ourselves! The movie starts off quite interestingly - it may feel like an ending, but then again that also can be seen as a beginning. Especially because of what is uncovered - or rather dug up (who to be more accurate).

But all that means nothing to you, if you have not seen the movie and I am only talking about the first couple of minutes. And you can tell right from the beginning that the movie was well thought of and well made to (cinematography that is). The acting is great too and the make up works quite like a charme to say the least.

The idea is quite neat too - and sounds quite enticing, right? Who wouldn't want to be in our main characters shoes ... well at least superficially speaking right? If you like Science Fiction and do not mind a bit of violence and nudity on the side ... well this will float your boat for sure ... and there is a sequel too? Sign me on ... I'll be in touch!

Anyway you cut it, this movie is way too disjointed and poorly directed to be good. I am a big fan of aussie horror movies but this one doesn't work. By any stretch of the imagination.

The main characters don't really mesh, or visually fit. About two thirds into the film it becomes a freeforall of unfollowable plot.

The acting is dismal and as I intimated, the writing is poor at best.

To be honest, i was marginally, to very, bored throughout the entire movie. We are given no reason to like the characters -- or even understand why we should.

The denoument is ludicrous and idiotic. What a disappointment.
