Razor Blade Smile

Just as you thought that Britain didn't have a small, low-budget movie industry left outside of student projects, Razorblade Smile makes it's appearance. This is not a good movie. Low production values (seems to have been shot on a handheld camcorder), very poor acting, especially by the lead, etc. However, if you like buxom women who also happen to be vampire assassins, it's worth a peek (she gets naked too).

I'd never seen Elain Daly before, but she looks good, is really well built (no silicone), gets naked, and there are some attractive, natural supporting women as well. It's supposed to be about the games vampires play when they have eternity on their hands. According to the IMDB's filmography, she has similar type movies to her credit, so you might want to check them out.

I could have done with some more graphic violence and bloodlust, though, but that may be because of the cut version I saw.

Well, Razor Blade Smile obviously is a low budget horror/action flick. But seeing Eileen Daly as her alter ego Lilith Silver is something to tell your friends about. It won't be long before they knock on your door to see this cool white face with red lips and impressive fangs. Razor Blade Smile is a small production so don't expect mega-special effects by the ILM boys but some nice camera-angles, a few colouring filters in the right place and wildly edited actionscenes. The acting, though not very impressive sufficiently reflects the fun in making this movie. Don't take it too seriously, the actors don't so just enjoy 93 minutes of popcornfun. Razor Blade Smile is destined to be a cult-classic, amongst Vampiremovie-lovers it will raise a brow but that will be amply compensated by buckets full of blood. Cheers....

Shot for just £ 12, 000, this film looks more like a million. Of course Vampire films may not be every ones cup of tea, but for heavens sake viewers look at the technique on show here. Amazing use of slow mo's, optical freezes and flashes. A true Maurice Binder title sequence, and staggeringly quickly cut, dynamic action scenes. If we are every to have more than just a Merchant Ivory based cinema in the UK then can be start supporting pictures like this. Empire magazine couldn't even be bothered to give it a review!! It may not be perfect, but how far do you think 12 grand goes these days? Also worth noting is the superbly over- the - top performance from Lighthouse's Chris Adamson. So often performances in low budget films look amateur, not here. Director of photography James Solan did an amazing job, the interior shots look as professional as many a Hollywood production and I'll bet he had about ten minutes to light each shot! The music by Richard Wells was also excellent. Well judged and perfectly placed. For goth fans everywhere and hopefully film fans, check this out on tape. Grab some beers, ask round a few friends and have a mad, entertaining and hilarious night in!! Forget those reviews that tell you it's awful....their just...err pains i

Okay, in my opinion, this movie is great. It has blood, violence, goth, and vampires. Not to mention very sexy women. These are all the components to a great horror movie like this one. RBS has great acting, a strong storyline, and an awkward twist at the end. I believe that everyone should see this movie at least twice.

Whether or not you'll like this depends on how seriously you intend to take it. I found it funny (in a tacky kind of way). It had some neat ideas which weren't used as well as they could be and some very good scenes. The acting was okay - if a bit iffy at times - and the special effects were nothing to write home about. If you take vampire films seriously then it's not for you. But if you take them with a pinch of salt you'll probably enjoy it!
