Bloodline

I love Seann William Scott. I also love serial killer movies. So I was surprised I hadn't heard of this movie prior to stumbling across it on IMBD. The musical score and movie style seemed a touch of camp to me, but that may have been intentional. Being a horror flick buff my whole life, campiness has not always a bad thing. Evil Dead is a gift of cinematic gold. With this in mind, and what I found to be a very pleasantly unexpected ending, I have to admit I quite enjoyed it.

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 is a Dexter-like movie, about a psychopath killing people that he thinks deserve it by their previous bad actions. It's not of the same quality as the series Dexter, but that's difficult as that show had it all, suspense, twists and great characters. Bloodline has some suspense though, and that's a positive thing in this story. The acting wasn't bad either, and there's a twist to it. For a movie about a serial killer it's not a bad one.

Incredible experience of madness, cinematography and a captivating performance from Sean William Scott! Interesting how others reference Dexter, I guess I can see the similarities. The soundtrack is so damn good I absolutely love when horror has a dope tune to go with it! Very vibrant colors that go quite well with the scenery which is rare for a lot of movies. Nice mix of a loving family and menacing vibes along with some unfortunate cruelty.

If you're a fan of Dexter, then you might just enjoy this film about a counsellor who takes it upon himself to dish out retribution and justice as he sees fit.

It's not a bad watch, it's very graphic and brutal, but despite the shocking scenes it's just a little bit lifeless at times, almost dull, I'd put that down to some of the characters, who at times feel a little flat.

Seann William Scott does a fine job as Evan, he's very strong, if totally dead pan.

I wouldn't want to sit through it again, but it filled a gap, 6/10.
