All Hell Broke Loose

Normally I love westerns, enough so that I am frequently forgiving of any shortcomings that they may have. However, "All Hell Broke Loose" is so unbelievably awful that I couldn't find any enjoyment out of it. The first clue as to its awfulness is that it's made by Barnholtz Entertainment, who are notorious for making and distributing shabby product. The second clue is that David Carradine was in the movie. In the past he made some entertaining movies, but towards the end of his life he was in one stinker after another, including this one. Though he is top-billed, you should know he's actually just in a minor supporting role. He doesn't seem very enthusiastic, and looking at the rest of the movie you'll soon see why. The photography is often washed out and murky, there's a cheap look to every shot (even those taking place in the wilderness), some of the actors are VERY OBVIOUSLY dubbed, the action is almost non-existent (and boring when there is "action"), the story is confusing, and the movie is so gosh-darned DULL. There is NOTHING of merit in this movie, and the movie's badness is not of the so-bad-it's-good type, so there's no reason to watch this movie, even if you are a Carradine fan.

I've seen a lot of terrible movies but this takes the cake. High school drama class plays are better acted than this. I can't believe David Carradine let his name be attached to this nonsense.

Bad shooting, bad acting, etc. Some of these people looked like it was the first time they'd held a gun. The cut scenes were dumbfounding and the forced accents were atrocious.

There's a lot of over-pronounced wording going on here, too. It's like they recited the lines just before the scenes and simply recited them without feeling or emotion.

Truely seriously horrible acting.... So much so that, I don't regularly write reviews but, in this case I had to make an exception. My elderly father loves westerns and is normally completely unaware of the bad acting or irregularities in plot or sets and even he found this unwatchable.

Combine a western and David Carradine and you would think you could not lose but this film actually manages to disappoint.

Starting with the video, there is something terribly wrong. It looks like a failed class project at a film school. The transition between shots is rough and occasionally mistimed. The quality itself gives the appearance that main characters were filmed in front of a projection screen rather than on scene.

The audio is horrible. It sounds as if the entire audio track was recorded in a studio and then dubbed onto the film. It does not always appear to coincide with the mouth movements of the actors. The background sounds seem to be missing and just do not sound natural.

The acting is horrible with some characters appearing to simply be reading for a part.

I actually bought the used Blu-Ray for $1.34 thinking I could not lose. I was wrong.

This is the scariest movie number 0. If you attempt to watch this film i feel sorry for you .It is a very bad attempt to shoot a western film .After a couple of scenes you can realize that it is unwatchable is the kind of movies that even if they pay you you don't go to watch.I m not gonna refer to the script as there's not any script.This is the kind of movie that everyone in the neighborhood can shoot with a video camera running at the streets filming and everybody will shout go away with your camera stop it !The actors were like they saying go away with your camera stop filming at me! think that some guns were so rusty as they took it for free from the dead grandpa's house decoration above the fireplace and it is impossible to shoot with rusty rifles like this and the guy was holding it like it was a baseball bat.Jesus this is the ugly the ugly and the ugly movie.I am wondering how many different films people from this production made in a single week.If this movie will come as a gift in Christmas i will stop believing in Santa Claus ...

Ever heard of a B~Movie ? This is a Z. This Movie is so bad. Bad acting, Bad lines, Bad Shooting Scenes. The guns firing even sound toy like.
