Very grim and disturbing German serial killer flick.
Uwe Boll is among the most hated horror directors.It's true that both of his adaptations of video games "House of the Dead" and "Alone in the Dark" pretty much sucked,but "Amoklauf" is a real deal.I enjoyed this low-budget German splatter flick.In many ways it reminded me Jorg Buttgereit's disturbing serial killer movie "Schramm".This film tells the story of a lonely man,who lives in a total isolation.He works as a waiter and in his free time he watches "Faces of Death" plus a lot of porn and masturbates,whilst lying semi-naked on his bed.Suddenly he violently kills his beautiful female neighbour with a knife and this is the beginning of his bloody amok.Soon the orgy of violent mass murder is set in motion..."Amoklauf" is a surprisingly grim and unsettling German serial killer flick which offers plenty of grue.Give it a look,even if you dislike Uwe Boll's recent works.Fans of Jorg Buttgereit and Gerald Kargl should check it out.8 out of 10.
