Late Fee

A couple rent two dvds from their local video-store (which is the 'Rare Flix' store in NJ, but is supposed to be another nameless store in the film I guess) despite the warnings that they return the movies no later then midnight because they have a rather strict late fee. Anyways, the couple returns home to watch said films (which we are, i hesitate to say treated to so I'll just say forced to watch as well) one has to do with a woman luring random guys back to a seedy motel, the other revolves around a girl getting thrown in a weird jail. Both of them are amateurish in the worst possible way.

Apparently both short films were already made and the 'movie' just cobbled a horrible wrap- around segment to showcase them. To make matters worse both shorts are quasi-sequels to two other films. 'The Pick-Up' follows the atrocious "Flesh for the Beast" and 'Damnation' follows the almost equally rancid "Shadow: Dead Riot". Naturally this would be quite confusing for anyone who hasn't seen either of those aforementioned films (and if you didn't, trust me I truly envy you) As an aside, why the couple would rent two films both sequels to films they've never seen before is never explained. But long story short (too late), don't rent this. It's excruciatingly bad.

My Grade: F

Media Blasters DVD Extras: a 6 minute Behind-the-scenes featurette; 'the Cutting Room floor' (15 worthless minutes of 'found' TV footage); photo gallery; TV spot for Rare Flix; and trailers for "The Devil's Hostage", "The Pick Up", "Wicked Lake", "Shadow Dead Riot" & "Flesh of the Beast"

Late Fee is the kind of movie that could have been good, but just failed on every level. The wrap around story is about a couple renting some scary movies is dull, with no real pay off, and the two takes of Terror are mediocre at best. There really isn't anything too redeeming about this one. Give it a pass.

The only people that could have given this movie a rating higher than a 1 had to have been involved in making it. It was about as much fun as popping pimples. The female that thought she was sexy looked like she was out of a bad 70's porno and no one in this movie could act. Nudity, cursing and sexual innuendo are not the things that make a movie worth watching. I bothers me that junk like this can even get a distribution big enough for anyone to waste their time watching it. Neither story within the movie made sense. The ringing doorbell made no sense. The murder at the end made complete sense. It reflected the wishes of the viewers. I get tire of giving movies like this a chance only to spend almost two hour being nothing but disappointed. I was going to turn it off after the first 5 minutes so I could honestly say, please don't waste your time with this piece of crap.

I watched this movie some time back in the mid of 2014. The movie begins with good concept, pulling the attention of the viewers. On a sudden, the movie lost its connection to the story. Many characters are entering and leaving puts you in frustration. The characters and camera view is also awesome. The only pain is in understanding what is happening in the movie. The only interesting scene in this movie for SM lovers is the unknown female naked bondage scene in the grind house. I give rating 3 (1+1+1) characters+camera+appearance of 10 seconds female nude bondage scene. Not sure the necessity of this scene but at least this scene could have stretched for some more time to drag attention of SM lovers.

I wasn't sure what to expect- but I will honestly say this movie pleasantly surprised me. It was a good mix of humor, macabre, and It had a shock factor that I was not expecting. Please keep in mind that i went into it knowing this would be low budget and campy
