Bloodline

Sean william scott put on a good showing of a dexter like killer. Emotionless at times, cold at others. Movie wont be winning any awards any time soon.but all in all it was a good movie and worth a look if you're into killers in a more realistic way. Gory as well!

The film kept me wondering what's going to happen in the long run. Seeing everything pan out slowly added to the suspense, I did enjoy the film, but this is a one time watcher.

"Bloodline" has a good performance by the underrated Seann William Scott as a guy kind of like Dexter who kills child abusers rather than serial killers. He's a kind of psychopath who has no problem in offing anyone who mistreats children, making him a serial killer you kind of root for.

The movie convinces you it's going to be something different with graphic nudity in the opening scene, which is something that is actually a lot more rare in American movies than the graphic violence this movie also has in spades. It also features a surprisingly gratuitous childbirth scene.

By the end I was a bit let down, though. The movie doesn't really give you anything to think about when it's over, and doesn't do anything very different, though it does have one or two unexpected twists.

Bloodline contains some scenes which, even as a hardened horror fan, are somewhat shocking. If you've seen Maniac (2012), then be prepared for another mainstream actor to surprise you with his dark choice of movie.

Seann William "Stiffmeister" Scott plays a cold and brooding father whose recently new born baby, and the reptitive sleepless nights, awakens his need to kill. But how long can his nocturnal activities go un-noticed by his family ... ?

The movie has strong performances throughout and a twist or two to spice up a simple plot. An exceedingly dry undercurrent of dark humour complements the violent kill sequences, not entirely unlike TV's Dexter, but never interferes with the edgy mood in this slick, dark gem.

I saw the NC-17 version at FrightFest and have heard that this version is not the one going to be screened in US theatres.

When I saw the Blumhouse logo I knew it would be worth watching. I wasn't disappointed.
