The Wounded

Caught this ultra low budget action movie going on PLEX the other day. PLEX and TUBI are streaming some pretty obscure movies and this being one of them.

It being a Troma release I wanted to give it a watch. While it certainly won't be everyone's cup of tea it definitely has a late 90s low budget nostalgia vibe about it. It's a Troma release so that already sets the tone in my opinion. I would describe the movie at best as just mindless action escapism. The producers and director were smart enough to include enough gory action and just enough eye candy to keep you watching.

Lastly I was shocked at some of the cast who obviously went on to bigger things.

Gangs vs Cults.

Not for everybody. For its genre, not too shabby.

Starting off, cover alone, hot chicks, guns, anguish (more like constipated), but mostly hot chicks garnered my interest.

Some cool fight scenes. I really, really, really wanted to hate it. But what the hey, surprised - for a No/shoestring budget, how did they get access to a jail? Or a prison bus? Clearly the show runs on its memorable "characters" - I wasn't a big fan of Taka, the overly preachy counselor, but the LSD cult leaders and some of the gang members deserve some props for their standout scenes. Bella, the nekkid cult priestess - thanks for the mammaries for the Hot Tub girl! It didn't bore me compared to others of its genre. Seven stars because it entertained me.

I'm waiting for Wounded 2.0 Plus Zombies.

No, really.

No, really.

I saw this movie on TV and got drawn to it with how hot guys are in it. I didn't expect too much as far as storyline but to my surprise it's actually pretty good. Sammi is so good in it I had to watch more of his stuff after this movie.

The premise kind of reminds me of the American History X. It's gritty and moves really well.

I highly recommend this even if it was made in 2003 it still is a very good film to watch.

The poster for the film kind of makes the film seem cheesy but it's really not the case.

If you are looking to watch a film for excitement, this will be one of them.

This is by far the worst film I have ever seen. The film is obviously shot on a shoestring budget, but that is no excuse for the poor quality. The story jumps about so much and the editing is so poor it is almost impossible to follow.

I saw it on the Horror Channel which admittedly can show some "lesser quality" films, but I am at a loss as to why they would bother showing this. I can only imagine it was bought as part of a job lot, but someone should have taken the decision to file it away as one never to be inflicted on the public.

The story makes no sense, the characters have the intellect of amoeba and the dialogue is truly cringemaking. I am surprised the complete cast and crew was not made up of Alan Smithee.

Yeah not everyone's cup of tea or coffee, but I'm into gang life films. I really enjoyed the raw, indie approach.

A lot of the acting was whacked, but the story kept me watching. Expected a slasher movie, got a gangsta vs. crazies.

There was a certain whack-a-doo look in certain characters that in their eyes you only see in hood-rats that when they find out their gangsta boyfriend is cheating on them - and they're off and running.

There are a lot of crazy characters you just gotta be on the lookout for.

The cult girls definitely worth a look. The main cult beauty is worth looking at twice, or more.

What she does to one of the characters is something to... Wait For It...

Ah, go see the "Banana clip" - you'll see what I mean.
