I picked up Bang in a 10 pack of blaxploitation DVDs called "Livin' Da Life." The film is pretty much a total copy of Reservoir Dogs, filmed almost entirely in someone's garage. The director even acknowledges his obsession with Tarantino in the "bonus" material.
Bang was made very cheaply. Too cheaply. And it shows. It's almost like watching someone's home videos. The cast seems to be made up entirely of the director's friends and family. This also shows.
The story is about four guys locked in a garage, being tormented by some other guys. Lots of heated dialogue and wooden acting. Like I said, this is a Tarantino rip, so everything unfolds via flashback. Although very unoriginal in style and execution, the story is somewhat interesting, and at the very least, certainly not boring.
Bang is kinda fun in a so bad it's good way. My friends and I watched it over two years ago and laughed our asses off. We still joke about it to this day. But honestly, give Bang a chance. It wasn't even the worst movie in the box set.
"Fu-Fu-Fu-Fuckin' skeletons in the closet." Oh BTW, the glowing review by jchollins2, was written by Jeff Hollins, the director of this movie.
