Beyond Fury

Yes it's got a lot of gore and violence. It's also got some of the most abysmal acting I've ever witnessed.

Awkward character presence, stilted monologues, and wooden acting abound do nothing to lift this past an amateurish offering.

Brutal yes,good no,unconvincing lead,stereotype grimacing ,one dimensional baddies,sure its low budget,but someone like ben wheatley could make something far better than this,on the same budget,plenty of blood,but not much substance,tries to be shocking,but comes over as exploitive,and a bit naff, skip it.

Loved this. An homage to the great Italian giallo movies of the 70s , Beyond Fury is a low budget gore fest with some of the most shockingly impressive gore effects I've ever seen. It's definitely not for the faint of heart. Some impressive acting by the leads and gorgeous lighting and sound make this a film I would thoroughly recommend.

BEYOND FURY (2019) is the third instalment of Darren Ward's FURY trilogy (following 1997's SUDDEN FURY and 2010's A DAY OF VIOLENCE), dark indie thrillers made under the Giallo Films banner. Like Lucio Fulci's THE SMUGGLER before them, these utilise plotlines from gangster and crime movies to deliver ulta-violence on a massive scale, and indeed BEYOND FURY is one of the grisliest, gore-drenched movies I've seen in a very long time. The Godfather of Gore himself would be proud!

Our thuggish hero goes on the rampage when his pregnant wife is murdered by thugs - that's the entire plot, and what transpires is a series of wince-inducing set-pieces in which body parts are trashed and smashed across the screen. Our lunkheaded hero wins no awards for acting (compared to equivalent meatheads like Craig Fairbrass, he's positively log-like), but scream queen Dani Thompson has a small role alongside THE BILL's Jeff Stewart. Best of all is Italian cult favourite John Morghen (aka Giovanni Lombardo Radice) as the villain of the hour, a psychotic mob boss with a fine-line in foot-smashing! What's most amazing about this film is that the direction is exemplary, the photography varied, interesting and looking good throughout. Sure, there's a slow half hour in the middle, but it's not enough to spoil the gory glory of this blood-soaked gem.

Badly acted, cheap, stupid and unpleasant. Very gory if that is all you need.

I can't think of a single positive thing to say.

Take the glowing reviews with a pinch of salt.
