Dying God

It is extremely rare that I do not finish a movie that I start but this movie was awful. I tried to hang with it but this is not just an ordinary "B" movie. If there was a home for "B" movies, this one would be left out in the cold. The acting was as pitiful as I have ever seen. The male lead forced every word he spoke. If this gentleman had any acting classes it is my guess he did not do very well. I had absolutely no feeling towards his character, a good actor brings you into his role and makes you feel his sorrow and pain. In this case the only pain I felt was in my stomach which was made much better when I turned this waste of film media off.

The monster idea was the best part of the film and what made it watchable.

The film has an interesting idea, but that's pretty much where it ends. The acting and oddity of listening to to a mix of English and French accented English in a South American industrial city is a bit too much. Sort of like watching it filmed in a French Canadian province for a story that's supposed to take place in Brazil. The lack of fit gave it that b-movie/TV quality despite a good soundtrack and believable FX.

The director and caster get responsibility for it. The stereotypical dirty cop, hookers, relationships, cigarettes, and drugs just didn't fit. It all seemed forced. Too many easy fixes that irritated me and took my focus away from the story.

It looks like it was shot on a cheap handycam with no lighting talent whatsoever. The monster looked terrible too. The music was good and dialogue clear but otherwise totally uninspiring. Horrible acting and horrible direction. Misty Mundae was a happy bonus. What happened to Lance Henriksen? Not in the slightest bit scary or even interesting.

Buenos Aires.A horny monster is raping hookers to death with his huge penis tearing their uteruses.A beast called the 'Kurupi' is desperately trying to find a suitable baby-maker in order to sustain its species.It's time for tough cop Sean Fallon to stop the creature...The premise of "Dying God" sounds spectacularly sleazy,unfortunately most of the rapes and violence takes place off-screen.Even the amount of nudity is minimal.Lance Henriksen and Misty Mundae are both wasted in this boring piece of garbage.Adimittedly the climatic battle between Fallon and the beast is hilarious and quite gory.Watch Japanese outrageous "Guts of a Virgin" instead-similar premise,awesome result.3 out of 10.

In a dark and decadent city, corrupt cop Sean Fallon will have to face his own demons to put an end to a series of brutal rapes and murders of the most weirdest kind. With the help of the local pimps, Fallon will go on the hunt for a serial killer...

We have B-movie celebrity Misty Mundae as Mary and genre favorite Lance Henriksen as a wheelchair-bound jerk. And that is about it.

Honestly, I felt like there was something to like about this. Dirty cops, a serial killer and prostitutes... that already makes a good story. The acting was good, as was the location scouting. But for some reason the production value just seemed bad, with the cameras coming across as cheap. And that brought it all down for me...
