Urban Massacre

I saw this usually lower-priced on used DVD listings and finally got around to buying it and checking it out. Didn't realize it was a horror-Hip Hop / Hardcore Rap movie until I read about it more and then viewed it.

There are two pretty distinct elements in the film, a zero-budget horror story and a goofy movie about a Rag-Tag Hip Hop / Hardcore Rap group trying to make it big in the 90's / 2000's.

I liked the Hip Hop and Hardcore rap story as I ended up growing up with 80's and 90's rappers in my youth.

Yes, it's zero-budget for production values for the most part and parts of the plot / ending are outrageously lame even for a movie like this.

A little bit of it even felt like an urban Scooby Doo type of slapstick live-action episode which I actually liked.

The time / flow / editing is about right for the movie, I wasn't bored at least not knowing what would come next.

The horror elements are pretty bad, almost comically bad as if completely intentional and they may have been. At least some better gore and humorous points could have been inserted too then. A few are tried - to mixed results already....

Hey, the owner of a New York pizzeria plays a mafia head and his restaurant is used in the movie, can't get more zero budget then that.......

I must say, i saw this film the other day because my brother got it from god knows where, and it was shocking, in the worst imaginable way. it was rubbish, the music is bad, even if you like that kind of music, the camera shots are abysmal, the close ups are crap and usually out of focus and the dubbing is out of sync. ITS A CRAP FILM. DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE. its not scary but the rubbish quality will give you nightmares- seriously. If you do see this movie then you are an idiot, because we gave you plenty of warning. Mark these words, they are words of sense- the film sucks, its crap, rubbish, awful, abysmal, shocking, and any other bad word you can think of. its all of those times by 1,000,000+

Raging Nation Films has come out with movie #3, and each one just gets better and better! This is a movie full of laughs and suspense that will make you sit up on the edge of your seat until the very end. Don't watch this flick thinking it's going to be "Citizen Kane" or "Casablanca", classics to be sure, but rather dry and stuffy films full of people filling their stereotyped gender and race roles. "Urban Massacre" is one of the best of a new genre, a genre of movies about and in the middle of the hip-hop culture. Grab on to this new wave while you still can, because soon this film will be a "classic" in its own right!

This ranks down there as one of the worst movies ever. My freind got me this DVD as a joke, and i'll admit i laughed at the movie a whole lot... but because it's just so bad. The best part of the movie was the music, which wasn't even good. The ending was horrible, absolutly one of the worst endings ever. Don't waist you're time unless you've got nothin better to do than... no wait there's really nothin worse you could be doing.
