Death Factory

One of the worst movies I have seen this year, and I have seen plenty.

The acting? Abysmal.

The premise? Sophomoric.

The special effects? Laughable and poorly implemented.

This movie was seriously worse than a SyFy original movie, and we all know just how bad those atrocities can be. The only redeeming quality about this movie is that I was able to turn it off 40 minutes in. It was simply a horribly made film, written and directed by people who lack the vision and talent to ever do anything other than third-rate C-movies. Avoid this like you owe it money. An abomination in every conceivable way.

Okay, I am not saying this is something that is going to get tons of awards, but the idea is interesting on it's own. I bought it for a tenner, expecting something below average, I love horror what can I say. Although I was surprised firstly the serials killers did act like how they were in real life even some fun elements, but I find it funny the only critic gave this 0/10, that shows worth of that critic. Anyway, they are caricatures, but as with horror the most annoying die first. The critic also does not seem to how understand how unlimited stupidity is, referring to the fact they read the book. Of course we as watchers will know it's bad idea, but then we have fortunate fact of knowing they are in a horror movie.

Sorry for the rant, but this was not a hugely bad movie, it had some surprises and outside of small annoyances never felt I need to stop watching. I give it eight, good way to pass the time and one twist is genuinely clever...

The ending, well that shows the critic who reviewed did not even understand what had happened... Plus some of the character's broke out of their clichés which was refreshing.

Fun little flick! Sure, its cheesy and heavy handed but frankly, i like that in a horror film. Nothing earth shattering in the realm of horror- as far as plot, pretty standard "summoning dark forces" fare- but an interesting twist via the use of serial killers. All your favorite real life skeezwads are here, including gein, dahmer, and a creepy new take on jack the ripper (honestly impressed with that one.) Annoying sterotypes youll enjoy see getting killed-seriously, try not to cheer when the goth couple gets their comeuppance- including the gratuitous bimbos providing the requisite T&A the genre demands, and a few actually likable people to root for. Auntie May proves that she is, indeed, not one to f*** with and my favorite character. I want a spin off starring her, wherein she takes down demons with one monstrous flick of her wig. And how often are the main villians African American? Semi Anthony is quite luscious and plays a good meanie. Some good fight scenes towards the end, including an impressive spin kick. All in all, the kind of fun horror i enjoy, not too serious and just a good time. :)

This film has exactly three good things: the location, the original main villain and the music. The music is a good tribute to the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and single handedly lifts this film from a 1 to a 2.

Apart from that the casting, the acting, the lighting, the editing, the dialogue, the plot and the sound is so bad it couldn't even pass for a student film. Especially the casting, which is truly bad considering this film tries to include historical serial killers.

Also, the film has no proper ending, and there are several scenes that are so disjointed it seems like there are missing reels.

Because it has to be a comedy, right? It stretches the imagination that anyone would think of this as anything else, it's so packed with outrageous stereotypes, epicly bad acting, gratuitous sex just shoved into the story like the director had to fill a quota, and perhaps the worst dialogue in all of cinema history. Listen: It's even worse than "Is it raining? I hadn't noticed." [Four Weddings and a Funeral-but who doesn't know that?)

Accordingly, I loved it. It now ranks at #1 in my list of "Movies So Bad I Can't Stop Watching Them," displacing Point Break for the first time in 20 years. I love how hard the actors are working (you can see them working their drama class training); I love how seriously the film portrays itself. So earnest. So committed. So sad.
