Other Monsters

I am NOT a picky woman. Give me a good story with a few good actors and I am a happy camper. This was the case in this movie. I almost didn't watch it at all due to hating almost everything Gravity Ventures throws at me. The other day I watch a WHOLE crappy movie and then at the end their logo popped up. So I guess the joke was on me. This was one of their very, very, VERY few movies I enjoyed by them. A twisted love story with revenge. I thought it was slow at times but it made up for it with good acting and well told story. So I would say it was a solid B & 1/2 + movie. Not great, but also not just awful. As always be your own judge and give it a chance yourself.

Ex-Marine Connor Holloway is familiar with violence. He starts working as security to his prostitute girlfriend Mary. Something happens one night and Mary is killed. Connor gets convicted and imprisoned for it. Upon his release, Mary's sister Laura tries to shoot him for revenge.

There is a bit of good volatile violence to the Connor character. The story could be interesting with a bit of fixing. The two lead performances are mostly fine. The others are a mixed bag. The filmmaking is weak. The low budget quality is telling. The flashbacks and memory recalls make the movie messy and disjointed.
