Kill Buljo: The Movie

I am from the town that this movie was made in, and I have seen and talked to the director and the actors on several occasions.

I can see that it may be hard for folks that aren't from Norway to get the humor of the film, hell even the people who live in the southern Norway have a difficult time getting it all... So with that said, this movie is maybe not for everyone. It's not meant to be just a parody of Tarantino's "Kill Bill" movies, this film uses lots and lots of local humor which to other viewers may seem very lame.

So I can understand why this movie have got a bad rating here, but if we all came from northern Norway this movie would have 10 Stars :)

I remember seeing this at my video rental shop and feeling a small spark of joy in my heart. A parody of Kill Bill? Brilliant! I love parodies!

And so I rented it, expecting a lot...maybe too much.

The beginning of the film made me laugh. The parody of the wedding massacre with all the body outlines on the floor, including a reindeer was very good, but when the actors came in everything went to hell.

The acting is bad, terminally bad. The main actors expression does not change once throughout the whole bloody film!! In fact the whole acting part reminded me of some cheap, unenthusiastic college joke film. The film has funny jokes in it, but it has a nice truckload of poor and frankly disgusting ones to shove the good ones out of the audience's mind. Most of those bad jokes involve coprophilia, bestiality (oh yes there is some in there), scatological humour and tired and overused jokes (the "I am your father" one is spectacularly painful to watch). The dubbing was horrendous and clashed with the poor acting. The Englisg voice acting was very over-dramatic compared to the wooden, never- changing expressions of the actors...if zombies were picked to play human characters this film would be the result.

There is also a long running obsession with homosexual rape, bestiality and coprophilia in this movie, why? I don't know, I suppose they just thought that a fat cross-dressing Madame Irma type character crapping in a bowl was hilarious so they included it. Also, racist attitudes towards Laps apparently stem from homosexual rape by burly Scandinavian lumberjacks...what were they thinking?

The final scenes of the film really show that the people making it just gave up. The sword fight with Buljo is ridiculous, with the two fighters randomly and softly clashing their katanas together...and then there's the "I am your father joke". WHY?!

When the reason why the evil gang of cattle rustlers (?) or whatever they are reveal why they tried to kill the main character you will have a good laugh as it is pretty funny...but then your mirth will be snatched away by the clumsy and painfully unfunny fighting scenes...oh, and the Star Wars joke too, did I mention that?

And finally, the evil Buljo is killed and you are treated to some premium quality arse-groping...so funny.

All in all this film has funny aspects to it, but the sheer randomness and disgusting humour just spoils it completely and seems to show a lack of effort from the creators. If you like watching films with insanely stupid and disgusting random humour or just like low budget films, go ahead and rent it, there is worse stuff out there...but I recommend you get yourself some beer to go with it.

This is a must see! A group of friends from a small town i northern Norway has made a low budget spoof movie loosely based on Tarantino's Kill Bill - and it's funny as heck! For movie aficionados it contains references to a fjord-load of classics, from Star Wars to Deliverance, in addition to the obvious likeness to the two Kill Bills. Splatter, cheesy one-liners and arctic ass-kicking all rolled into one big snowball of lowbrow laughs. Oh, and plenty of ham acting intermixed with some quite talented amateurs. The snowmobile chase scene alone is worth the price of admission! It is quite interesting that this movie has been made with almost no support from the Norwegian film establishment, and yet it's a bigger hit with young audiences than most productions that costs ten or twenty times more to make. Just goes to show that an original idea and a love of movie-making wins over money and prestige every time.

A Norwegian parody of Kill Bill that is hilarious and has just the right mix of originality and parody. It has constant jokes and very fun characters. The characters (Mainly the protagonist and antagonist) are well developed and pretty much every scene they're in is guaranteed to be funny. With a budget of about 900€ this is quite a well made movie, considering that the acting is good, the effects in fights are either good or the cheap ones are played of quite funny, the only indicator of this being a low-budget production is the lack of good customs and sets, however as I said before, it's played of quite funny. I also strongly recommend watching the subbed version, in the English Dubbed one many of the jokes are changed.

The only problem I have with this movie is that they could have ended it better, but considering the amount of laughter I had before it's a minor mistake.

P.s.: In the subbed version the subtitles said corn dog, while you can clearly hear the character say kebab, anyone has an idea why?

This film is great! Some people took the crappy film Kill Bill, and made a genius parody. Don't get me wrong now. Tarantino is an excellent director, but Kill Bill was a flop. But Kill Buljo is funny from the first second, till the last second. With a budget of only a million NOK (about $200.000) they managed to make a brilliant movie. Yes, it's an amateur movie, but I'm glad it made the movie theaters, and DVD. Had to buy it when it got out.

Sorry my English. I'm not very good at it :P

If you want to see a real comedy, how it should be, watch Kill Buljo! It's the BOMB!!!!
