Review of Sadomaster

Sadomaster (2005 Video)
7/10
Splatter from Argentina
16 October 2006
First off. See the cover of the US release DVD? Forget it, forget everything about it. It's kind of this slick nazisploitation s&m thing. That is not this movie, and if you go in expecting that you will be very disappointed. Not that Sadomaster is a bad movie, but the cover art is an example of really bad marketing.

Okay, so what is Sadomaster? It's a micro-budget splatter flick, think something along the lines of an Andreas Schnaas flick, that tries hard to be offensive. Story-wise it's a revenge flick with a political corruption back story, say along the lines of The Crow. Only our protagonist is a wino. And the revenge is for some dead retarded guy whose brains he ate. There's definitely some offensive stuff here, like when the hoods/punks/Nazis/whatever kill the retarded guy they do some pretty graphic (but low budget) sodomy. There's a decent amount of gore, some good, some not so good, but it was all pretty fun. I can get into the whole micro-budget splatter thing so I mostly liked it. It did drag a little bit at times (not the non-stop splatter-fest of something like Plaga Zombie or Le Bagman), but there was enough whacked out and offensive stuff that it was overall an entertaining flick. If you're in to micro-budget splatter it's worth a look.
