Adam Chaplin

The first words that came out from my mouth after watching this movie were Oh my god what did i just watch..I finally got something totally different to watch out in form of Adam Chaplin.It was far far better than my expectations

Now what makes this movie different??What are it's plus points??

1)Extreme bloodshed ever witnessed which makes it a must watch for fans of this genre

2)Awesome background music which is almost nonstop and suits so well to each and every scene

3)The way camera is used to shoot the sequences from different angles especially closely shot scenes are really a treat to watch.

4)The deformed get up of almost all the characters gives it a distinctive look.

5)The pace with which movie progresses with every scene and even the flashback making sense out of it..You won't find any scene illogical and meaningless

6)The conversations between the actors are engaging and they won't bore you even for a second

7)The gory action reflects creativity and is unforgettable and breathtaking

8)The climax when demon resting on Adam's shoulder shoulder says There is no distance between you and your desire and adam without touching deformed antagonist destroys him using all his energy is just outstanding..

Direction by Emanuele de santi who himself plays Adam the protagonist is praiseworthy and the special effects are visual delight

Some of the scenes are graphically designed and appear artificial which do bother the viewers but as it is more of a fiction so they are acceptable..

All in all Adam Chaplin is a low budget gem which is completely distinct in each and every perspective from other flicks of this genre

I rate it 8 out of 10 as such kinda movie has never been made..

Adam Chaplin is the story of a man who wants revenge for the murder of his wife. This desire for vengeance has seen him strike a deal with a nameless demon who has made his home just behind Adams' right shoulder. The outcome of this deal has given Adam some insane fighting powers which will be giving the local deformed gang boss and all his unlucky stooges a real headache.

Anyone familiar with the Manga or anime "The fist of the North star" will love this movie. It's like they've brought the crazy violence from this story to life only with a guy who looks like a male stripper as the lead. The gore is just outrageous heads are smashed arms are pulled off, people explode. The movie is obviously a small production so the effects are on a budget but that just means that these guys have had to be creative. There are some pretty neat little touches in this movie that I hadn't seen before, I especially like the effects for the demon when he appears although it's very basic I think it was very effective. The gore effects in this movie are mostly practical there's a tiny bit of CG in there but overall it's got that old school feel. It really is a triumph in these respects. The final rooftop battle is really impressive and worth the price of admission alone.

The only thing I found lacking was the story. A lot of what is said in the synopsis is not actually said in the film. Also the ending seemed a little rushed which was a real shame as the film has a great look and feel with some quite fitting music too.

The lo-fi production may put a lot of people off but if your gore hound or you enjoyed the "The story of Ricky" you should definitely check this one out.

When this came out it went immediately into the world of must see extreme gore flick. But the problem was released in Italian language it had to be translated. So far you will only find it common at conventions in it's original language or with German subs. And prices go high for this one. Luckily for the rest of the world there's also a release with English subs.

Sadly the one with English subs is 10 minutes shorter then the extended Itakian version but don't worry, even the shorter version will feed the gorehounds.

The story in such kind of flicks isn't that important but here we do have an actual simple story. But not for the casual horror geeks because Adam Chaplin always has that demon behind him telling stuff. It's low budget but the effects are really well done. And it's naturally gore galore all the way. Faces being smashed, arms being broken, heads being shot, you know what I mean, all done on- camera.

The acting is below zero and all looks a bit exaggerated. After 45 minutes you have seen it all, the way the killings are done and my attention faded away. But it do became a cult flick that is hardly sought by the gorehounds.

But if you can stand it until the end, the last 12 minutes are really messy.

Gore 4/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5

Having watched some much unbearable rubbish on the indie horror front these days it was a joy to find a film that actually had some imagination put into the way it looked ... More than some ... A lot ... It was inventive and looked good ... The story was minimal, but that has never been a problem if it isn't insultingly stupid ... Which, OK, its mental but it doesn't talk down to you :)) The demon is cool and love the way it always appears ... No price effect and so effective Don't know much about the guy who made it ... Amazing body ... Frightening hairstyle ( please tell me that was a wig !!! ) ... But I'll be interested to see what he does next And has made me go and look at his music too ... Soundtrack works very well Good luck Mr De Santi and thank you for providing me with an indie horror that didn't just get thrown straight in the bin :))

A homage to hyperviolent wuxia anime, supernatural vengeance flicks, and grindhouse, this bukkake of blood delivers more splatter for the platter than the filthiest gokkun fest. The directorial and acting debut of one Emanuele De Santi, this supernatural revenger flick plays out like some twisted hybrid of The Crow and Fist of The North Star, surpassing the live-action version of the latter in terms of sheer spectacle. A colourful cast, including some monstrous yet oddly sympathetic villains, help keep things ticking over between the bloodjaculatory set pieces. A testament to the fact that one can stretch a tight budget a long way. Hopefully, this'll not be the last seen of Santi.
