Legião dos Mortos

I picked up this movie on DVD for about 25 bucks, which is a lot of money. Let's just say I was fooled by Ittenbach's notoriety and by the thought that this might be another Premutos. Unfortunately enough for me... it was not. In fact, I watched this thing with a couple of friends because they thought that the cover was cool and all and, an hour and a half later, we were left saying: "God, what an awful movie!" The fact is that this movie made absolutely no sense and was not at all funny or gory or well-made or anything, it was plain bad with almost no redeeming value. Hell! I thought the animated menu was better than the film! Since I consider myself quite an expert when it comes to b, horror and cult movies, you should trust me when I say: just skip it.

P.S. The version I saw had 5 minutes cut off but I'm positive in saying that even the 5 more thrilling minutes in cinema history couldn't possibly save this thing.

This movie was possibly the worst movie I have seen so far. Even in the last 10 minutes of the movie, I found myself wondering who certain random characters were, and what the hell was going on. The acting was less than mediocre, and what about the plot you may ask? What plot?? The humor was certainly not funny. I found myself getting irritated as the movie constantly insulted my intelligence in the form of crap comedy and poor dialogue.I wish I could say there was some sort of redeeming feature in this film...but there isn't. That's 90 minutes of my life that I will never be able to get back again, and $5 from the video store that I could have spent on a film that was entertaining. If I could give it 0/10 I would. Don't even think about seeing this movie.

Legion of The Dead is split into two parts like 'From Dusk Till Dawn'. The first half focuses mainly on William and Luke getting kidnapped by psycho Mike and two legion members recruiting people in to the legion of the dead. The Second half focuses on a group of people trying to escape a diner surrounded by Togaio and the legion of the dead. The first half is pretty good and enthralling making you think that this is going to be surprisingly a good film but uh oh wait a second there...the second half spoils it completely! And because the second half makes little to no sense the first half is there in turn wasted. Togaio waves his arms about far too much (the actor must of thought "WOH i'm playing Satan, better act the part" and over acts the part). The humour is pretty much non-existent in the second half too which is one of the main bits that made the first half good. The film makers obviously tried to do a "From Dusk Till Dawn" movie and failed miserably. Worth renting but do not buy this movie as it's hard enough watching it all the way through the first time! It's a shame because done right this movie could have been a winner. 5/10

This could almost become a cult movie. It involves idiots working with and against the powerful demon Tagaio, played by my favorite actor of all time: Mathias Hues. He played in so many bad US movies that his Germanic accent is almost gone.

In this one, he doesn't even fight. He is just the comic relief. The other actors play their parts (of idiots) really well, completely immersing the viewer in the atmosphere of the movie. The end part is an almost exact replica of the From Dusk Till Dawn bar fights, and by exact I mean really funny and completely different.

In the end (spoiler!!) Mathias Hues reveals his real identity: he is also an idiot, and the Legion of Idiots is finally defeated.

Now really, a bad movie, with decent low budget effects and good film editing. But other than that, the script, acting and directing sucked. If you get really intoxicated with something, you might find it hilarious.

This is one retarded movie-plain and simple. The title suggest a major action packed horror film; the movie suggests low budget, no talent let down. This movie is confusing and just plain simple. These no go actors were up for money when they took this job. 3 out of 10.
