The Killing Grounds (1997 Video)

Love it, definitely, madly, deeply

[8/10 · 25 November 2020]

The perfect example of what B or even grade Z features, direct to DVD films, can bring from time to time, if you dare check fifty of them to finally find the rare gem. I love this film because you have plenty of characters, and not necessarily plenty of plots, where there is NO LEAD, NO GOOD characters to feel empathy to, and eventually no survivors at the end. Some kind of TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE syndrome. But of course at a very large, huge lesser scale. Yes, there were plenty of those movies in the prolific 90's but, I repeat, you have to dig deep inside the big amount of those most of the time garbage material. I don't care about the lousy directing or acting, the director seems to have focused his movies on unusual and unexpected schemes. I have some of his in my library. In this kind of stuff, I focus on stories that are not foreseeable. NOT FORESEEABLE. That's all.
