The Film:
The recent Recession and global economic woes have scared a lot of people, many for the first time, and is something that won’t be lost on film makers. It’s certainly on the mind’s of any Diy director, something where their desire is usually as high as a few thousand dollars, but your families got to eat, you know? With this as a backdrop, in terms of Troma’s recent release of a Diy exploitation flick in Grim and in its plot, it’s sad to see Grim never really amounts to much.
Writer/director Adrian Santiago’s aim was well-schooled, yet it just didn’t sink it, and I’m sure many have already out-right dismissed Grim due to its Diy production values and its Troma affiliation, but shame on you. Grim isn’t that bad, more or less, especially in this world of Diy.
