Death Factory

In the introduction, a hillbilly woman is (somewhat disturbingly) beaten and killed by who appears to be her violent ex-boyfriend, before said goon is killed by the lady's son. I'm still in the process of sorting out how this fits into the whole storyline, but maybe that's pointless, as proved later.

A few decades later, that same son has grown into a bearded and broody hunk. He's part of a group of disparate individuals heading to the desert for some sort of spiritual enlightenment trek. There's a preacher and his dull girlfriend, the goofy best friend, the sports fanatic, 2 bimbos, 2 worthless goths, a fat foul-mouthed lady, etc.. Halfway through, their bus breaks down and they hike to a ghost town. The same ghost town that, earlier on, a salesman "bought" the rights to the Death Factory Museum from an unsuspecting local. The poor chap must have been the only left resident in town. After some accidental sexual witchcraft, the 2 goths awaken the spirits of legendary serial killers like Ed Gein, Jack the Ripper, and a a healthy handful of others (including a bare-chested lethal vixen I couldn't recognize, but maybe she was only there for gender equality). The broody and hunky son makes it a mission to save his reluctant posse by absorbing the spirit of said killers, then there's some capoeira, and the Devil, and it just stops making sense.

If you agree to not try and make sense of the very messy storyline, you will probably be pleasantly entertained by the varied shenanigans. All the killers have great presence (except maybe for the aforementioned vixen, probably because she has no back-story in our collective pop consciousness). They are strongly portrayed, have threatening presence, and are prominently featured. There's lots of actions and gruesome killings, some refreshing nudity, the plot twists keep on popping until the very end, there's nothing to be bored with. Just leave your expectations at the door and enjoy the heartfelt ride.

I came in skeptical, expecting a boring D movie tier film, but it made B movie tier instead! The beginning I was like "Oh no the camera quality is a bad sign" but it was only for the beginning sequence for effect, after that it's more movie standard quality.

The blood and gore is relatively tame, and at times not very realistic..but neither are serial killers coming back from the dead. The movie doesn't take itself seriously and just wants to give you a good laugh at these over the top characters run around.

The obligatory sex and nudity may be a turn off for some, or a hard on for others, nothing extreme. The ending was pretty cheesy, but again, B tier.

I'd give it a chance for people who like horror comedy.

Fun little flick! Sure, its cheesy and heavy handed but frankly, i like that in a horror film. Nothing earth shattering in the realm of horror- as far as plot, pretty standard "summoning dark forces" fare- but an interesting twist via the use of serial killers. All your favorite real life skeezwads are here, including gein, dahmer, and a creepy new take on jack the ripper (honestly impressed with that one.) Annoying sterotypes youll enjoy see getting killed-seriously, try not to cheer when the goth couple gets their comeuppance- including the gratuitous bimbos providing the requisite T&A the genre demands, and a few actually likable people to root for. Auntie May proves that she is, indeed, not one to f*** with and my favorite character. I want a spin off starring her, wherein she takes down demons with one monstrous flick of her wig. And how often are the main villians African American? Semi Anthony is quite luscious and plays a good meanie. Some good fight scenes towards the end, including an impressive spin kick. All in all, the kind of fun horror i enjoy, not too serious and just a good time. :)

This film has exactly three good things: the location, the original main villain and the music. The music is a good tribute to the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and single handedly lifts this film from a 1 to a 2.

Apart from that the casting, the acting, the lighting, the editing, the dialogue, the plot and the sound is so bad it couldn't even pass for a student film. Especially the casting, which is truly bad considering this film tries to include historical serial killers.

Also, the film has no proper ending, and there are several scenes that are so disjointed it seems like there are missing reels.

I'm at 9 minutes into the movie and I stopped to count how many extreme stereotypes I've seen so far. There are 9 so far. That's right. Nine minutes in and nine extreme stereotypes are in the movie so far.

9 minutes 22 seconds. 10 extreme stereotypes so far.

9 minutes 30 seconds. A pair of extreme stereotypes just reached epic stereotypical traits.

9 minutes 50 seconds. 11 extreme stereotypes so far.

I'm starting to see a pattern here. Not only has the acting been laughably bad so far, the characters are such extremes that it's comical to watch each one as they get revealed.

14:53 had to pause the movie because i couldn't take anymore. I'm only going to continue just to make sure the plot holes I've seen so far are as enormous as I think they are.

24:30 The most racist stereotype I have ever seen in a movie.

26:50 The new most racist stereotype I have ever seen in a movie.

Guy trying to hide behind a window accidentally punches(?) it at the worst possible time. And I'm done. Screw this movie.
