rundbauchdodo from Zürich, Switzerland
A quartet of homicidal youth delinquents on motorbikes goes on a bloody
rampage: After gunning down all the staff and customers of a small bar and
taking two hostages, they intrude the home of an old lady and kill her too.
Dying, she spells a curse on the murderous youths who continue their escape
and reach an old, now desecrated church in the middle of nowhere. At this
creepy place, strange things start to happen...
What a delightfully obscure and sleazy production! This strange, but
thoroughly original film has to be seen to be believed. The actors are
rather bad, the production values are very low, but the affair never ever
becomes tedious - there are just too many stunning ideas thrown into the
plot for good measure, and most of them work. One particularly insane
sequence has the gang celebrating sort of a black mass in the church, during
which one of the gang members proclaims crazy and stupid things while
masturbating! Towards the climax, even the living dead have their appearance
in the most chilling sequence of the film. And, of course, there's also some
gore for splatter freaks (one scene being very splashy).
MAS ALLA DEL TERROR is unique in many ways. It's neither a masterpiece nor a
technically remarkable movie, and the logic of the plot is often
non-existent. But it's such an energetic bag of surprises and fun details
that it makes a cool partytape for all lovers of exciting
trash.
