From the very opening until the last gritty final shot, this
action/horror film is balls to the wall greatness. The script is
hilarious with some great dialogue mostly done by Clooney, the
special effects are amazing thanks to KNB (who got their start
working with Sex Machine's Tom Savini on early films such as Day
of the Dead) and Rodrigez camera moves so quickly and fast paced
that you will never catch your breathe. Many people don't like
this film because it goes from action to horror out of nowhere
but I loved that. Two of my favorite genres rolled into one. And
plenty of gore for any gore hound. Check out the awesome uncut
laserdisc (I have not gotten into the DVD world yet) for more
