The Killing Floor

Starting out pretty decent, about mid-way through the film starting going downhill, and really fizzled to a bomb at the end. Even with a good creepy tone set early on, the movie just doesn't seem to go anywhere and I eventually found myself just wishing it would end. The lead actor is not very convincing in his role and just seems like he's bored with the script. Unfortunately the other characters are rather one-dimensional as well. We really don't get to know these people enough to care what happens to them, and the predictable plot just doesn't leave much to the imagination. I give it a three out of ten; watch it only if you can't find something better.

This is a thriller about a successful literary agent getting stalked and threatened with psychological means.

I must say I did not expect this film to be so good. The character development is excellent. Right from the beginning, the main character David is already a character to be disliked, while the secretary Rebecca is a character to be sympathised. The plot is sophisticated and well thought out. The psychological threat is well presented, and furthermore, it is quite believable. I felt so attached to the characters and what was going on, that I felt insecure about sitting at home! Suspense is maintained throughout the film, and it kept me on edge all the time. From the beginning, there are already clues that gives away the twist at the end, but it does not make the film any worse. In short, I think this is a clever and intense thriller, and I would certainly recommend it!

This movie really entertained me and kept me thinking all the way to the end, unfortunately all that let the film down were the obviously tight funds expended to make this film.

I think the lead roles were played well but the policeman really let it down I think.

Otherwise, as I said really good story.

Other than this small but resounding problem I think the film was a really good attempt at the originally story although I think the book would be better.

Love Me

Blucas went to the same high school I did, and so, in some rare act of hometown patriotism, I figured I'd check it out. I expected crap, not being a fan of the whole Buffy thing and not really seeing him in anything else. But I was pretty surprised, I really enjoyed the movie. Blucas's acting was quite good, and really shined through during the more intense moments. I had something of an idea of the ending of the movie early on in the film, but the actual ending still held a few surprises.

The rest of the movie was pretty good as well. Nobody really had terrific acting, but nobody did a bad job either. The production could have been a little better, no major flaws to point out, just, you could tell it wasn't a big-budget movie. I'd rank is above a "B" movie, but not by a whole whole lot.

Now that I look, the movie has no listed rating yet, but I think it'll definitely receive and R purely for language. What bothers me about that, and it by no means hurt the movie, but it irked me, was that with all the F-bombs being thrown around, there isn't even an ass through the entire movie (even during the sex scene). Also, aside from a few very mild fights, there really is no blood or gore or anything like that either. If you're going to go for an R rating, why not go all the way? By removing half a dozen curses, they probably could have gotten away with PG-13, but they didn't, so why skimp on all the other R-rated perks? Overall, I would for sure recommend watching it if you get the chance. Pretty decent flick.

Cheers.

(This is 3 paragraphs to long!) It's not often when you get such a thriller that pulls you in and make's sure you don't fall out and The Killing Floor manages just that. I didn't expect anything to come out of this film just as most would but, surprisingly, it was fairly entreating and good. Yes, a B-Film but, a good one with a good actors. It sticks to it's B-Movie root's and it's a delight the whole time.

If you want a good movie this is for you. This movie is movie is not a horror and if you are looking for one to watch don't watch this, it's not scary and your hopes will only be let done. This is a movie for the thinker, so if your head hurts a lot when you think, you shouldn't be watching this, but, if you're looking for a good movie, I recommend this to you.

The finale twist is absolutely stunning, not only are you not trying to smile at the devious and twisted thing that is going on but, you're wonder how the title character didn't see that coming. All together this movie makes a great thriller. I would recommend this to anyone who like's suspense, and wants something to just sit down to watch for fun, and someone who is in the mood to put a puzzle together.

(But please, don't take my word for it)
