    Low budget film with thought out mythos.

    So, not great film as the low budget definitely keep production values to a minimum. The mythos background of the film definitely was worth the making. Unfortunately, all that backdrop doesn't make for a great film. Too bad as it has a mildly interesting subtext.

    Great, until the talking started.

    Someone dumped a bunch of money on this and I'm trying to figure out why. This is a buddy cop movies but only in the most cliche ridden way. Cop 1 can't seem to pass the Sargents exam which makes cop 1 mad, cop 2 cop 1's partner/mentor gets injured cop 1 with visible chip on shoulder breaks all the rules to help save cop 2. Every cop show every buddy cop movie has this plot several times over. Every good/bad buddy cop movie has comic relief like say Pesci in "Lethal Weapon" this has that but with a needy English man who constantly mentions his girlfriend and as far as I can tell has almost no purpose other then to exasperate cop 1. The major difference between a buddy cop movie is that this has all powerful Gods that somehow can be subdued by a skillet bashing the side of the head which also raises an interesting question, why would a skillet be sitting on a desk in an underground holding station for greasy haired immortals. The fight scenes are pretty good except like most bad martial arts movies they wait to fight the hero one at a time rather than attack all at once. Cop 1 and cop 2 are solid actors who do a good job. Everyone else is a caricature of all the side pieces from the buddy cop movie playbook. If your a fan of every cliche filled good fighting evil film this could do it for you, but all I saw was a pale imitation of Lethal Weapon.

    Awesome concept... Not bad, not great.

    Honestly not a bad film, but could have been better. A bigger budget and a little more story would have gone a long way. The plot is an awesome concept but could have used a little more. I was left wanting more of what I came to this film for, Elder Gods. But overall, not a bad film.

    Lovecraft wouldn't be proud of this...

    I was initially lured in by the promise of the Elder Gods, so I believed this movie to perhaps be based upon some Lovecraftian theme. So I sat down and watch the 2018 movie titled "Black Site" by writer and director Tom Paton.

    Well, this movie wasn't all that and a bag of potato chips. In fact, the storyline was horribly mundane. Nay, it was downright boring and uneventful. So it was a major disappointment to sit through the movie, especially because it proved to be not very entertaining.

    It should be said that the movie delves somewhat into a Lovecraftian theme, for sure, but without it actually being set in the world that Lovecraft created with his Mythos. So that was a little bit of a shame. And while the movie does focus somewhat on Elder Gods, it was merely an entity taken form in the guise of a mortal man. Yeah, talk about it being anti-climatic, but of course this was cost efficient. But wait, there is an Elder God about, a very Cthulhu-like being that you see in the distance throughout the movie (the same shot I bet). But this god-like creature serves absolutely no purpose to the story.

    And while we are on the topic of the story. Wait, what? This was abysmal, and it felt like it was something written by the hand of a 10 year old whom just started to read Lovecraft and wanted to make up his own story. It was just that stupid.

    The movie makes very little use of acting performances, because there isn't the need for any proper or convincing acting, apparently, throughout the entire movie. Well, I can hardly blame the actors and actresses, because they virtually had nothing to work with in terms of script, character or dialogue.

    Do yourself a favor and don't get suckered in like I did. Some of us suffered through this movie so you don't have to.

    "Black Site" scores a mere three out of ten stars, solely because of the CGI and the theme of the movie. Everything else was just not worth the effort.

    Boring and confusing barely-there sci-fi/horror

    Arriving at a secure military facility, a technician at a site where they send various beings from different dimensions back to their homeland finds himself thrust into battle when an intended deportee has his staff invade the site to free him and must endure a battle for humanity.

    This was quite an enjoyable and somewhat intriguing effort. One of the biggest aspects to be had here is the fact that there's a rather clever and complex backstory at the heart of the film. The central basis of this location keeping a dangerous race of vicious beings from invading the world, featuring elements of black magic and protection spells that are used to ensure that setup, works rather well to bring this out to a solid start. This setup offers the kind of structure system for the rest of this one, managing to admirably fit together within the parameters of a military compound that's staged to be a manner of sending them back to an alternate dimension incapable of returning back to our society. That also leads to the outbursts of action in here that are rather spotty but have some rather enjoyable elements featured here. The few brawls here between the various agents of the military facility has some nice hard-hitting action with the fine addition of some stellar swordplay as well. With that setting up the more generally impressive military tactics within the compound where they're forced to battle the numerous soldiers coming in to rescue the captured being. This all manages to offer up some exciting moments when it occurs. There are a few issues here, though. The main problem is that the film, for all the good it does at setting up the mythology in this universe, there's some absolutely confusing material in here. It takes way too long to figure out that the entire point of their attack on the base is to allow him to transform in order to allow him to reunite with his beloved who has already gone through the process. Not only is that finally revealed at the very end but it's handled through a series of intense and overblown conversations that are intended to drive that out easier than what it eventually shows and that makes for an immensely confusing and convoluted effort. As well, the film is just outright boring and bland. The idea of this one being based solely on the endless conversations and pretentious dialog that goes on between the group and the diabolical being which just turns the middle section into an endless drag and relieves a lot of the tension and suspense that had been built up by then. Simply watching this supposedly evil being just standing around spouting off threats about the downfall of humanity drains the film of action, lessens the intensity and undoes a lot of fun to be had here. These are the biggest issues overall.

    Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence and Graphic Language.
