He Never Died (2015)
8/10
Rollins Rules
26 June 2016
Henry Rollins of punk rock fame seems made for the big screen, as he channels his inner Clint Eastwood and Charles Bronson as a no nonsense good guy/bad guy vigilante. Jack(Rollins) is a loner who mostly sleeps and plays bingo incessantly In between, he is stabbed, shot and poisoned along the way. Rollins has a low key demeanor which is beyond description. He is also extremely funny with a deadpan comedic delivery which reminds me of Steve Martin. The less said about the plot here, the better. The title implies the story line, as Jack is very, very old. He explains his bizarre history to a waitress about 2/3 of the way into the film. This is a highly original script with enough comic relief to earn it an 8/10. IMDb tile page informs us of a possible mini series based on the movie. I can't wait for Rollins to bring back Jack in the future.
