Shadow Master

B-Movie or not, this was a dark and deeply disturbing film; in a supernatural film noir style. I liked that about it and I liked the Martial Arts fight action scenes very much also. The major let down for this film is the script/story was muddled and fractured all the way through.

You understand the very basics of what the horror is about but you are left never knowing why it was happening, why were the children needed for a sacrifice you never know what it's for and more so, why those particular children from that particular building; and also why the inhabitants - who were squatters anyway - did not just leave to live elsewhere.

The bad guys wore those bird beaked masks that originated from an earlier part of history, and in a different country entirely, when the Black Death, better known as the Plague swept many to their deaths. Being that they were the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse they would all have been different so, that made for no practical film story sense at all!

Anybody that is into Martial Arts films will immediately have noticed the fighting style similarity to the great Tatchakorn Yeerum, better known internationally as Tony Jaa (and in Thailand as Jaa Phanom). Its the only reason this gets a 3 star score from myself.

What is the picture? This is Hanuman's death god. It's an abandoned building. It looks like there are four or five families inside. Someone has killed the children in that family.

They say that they are going to be kidnapped. At the end, it looks like someone is kidnapping them from the lower floor of the same building and giving them human sacrifice. Then the hero comes and fights. That is good. At the end, I don't know what they are going to say in the film. In between, the police comes and interrogates the hero, he keeps telling the same story, the story is gone, then a small fight comes, the fight is all good, to be honest, the bit choreography is great, but the screen play is not good to watch.

I WATCH THIS MOVIE IN MY LANGUAGE TAMIL LANGUAGE AM FROM CHENNAI INDIA .. REALLY WHAT KIND OF MOVIE IS THIS WATS THE CONCEPT .. MIND DISTURBED.. WATS THE STORY TELLING ABOUT ... SO SAD ITS VERY ... BUT FIGHT SCENE AND THRILLER AND ACTION AND SUSPENSE AND SOME OF FEARS AND AND CLIMAX FIGHT IS BEST THING AWESOME FIGHT. WE LOVE TOO WATCH THIS IS MOVIE VERY SILENECE AND RELAXATION AND WE WILL GET UNDERSTAND FINALLY ONLY .. BUT THE GET UP OF THE VILLIANS WAS TOTALLY DIFFRENT THINKING I THINK I GET NOT UNDERSTAND WELL IN MY LANGUAGE USING PRIME VIDEO ... I WILL DON'T KNOW THIS MOVIE WILL GET SUCESS OR NOT.

Horror? Post-apocalyptic sci-fi? Redemption? Martial Arts? I'm not quite sure what this movie was supposed to be. Don't get me wrong the action was on point. Just that it was so muddled you can't really understand what they're trying to get at. Quite disappointing to be really honest. They could've invested a little time into character building, or explained a little about the situation. You pretty much go in blind and stay that way till the end wondering what exactly is going on! Why are things like this? What's actually going on, why is he fighting these things. Honestly, if you've got 90 mins to spare, have a blast. Else, avoid by all means necessary.

Cheesy at times and low budget for sure but cool! It was like they took the characters' from Mortal Kombat and made them real! I also loved the fight scene they were real looking, not that fake look where you can see the punches not land, I hate those kind of movies. Enjoyable enough to pass time with so I do not feel disappointed. Lately, with work I wish I had picked a better movie to watch now that I am watching fewer and fewer movies. I didn't hate the story but it was hard to follow at times. Loved the lead, and his moves were on point! A solid B + movie so don't expect Marvel or DC like the description suggests.
