I'm not a Kevin Smith fan & i Don't like his weird indie stoner comedies but i absolutely loved his anti-religious horror thriller RED STATE. But Kevin Smith is a smart dude & says it as it is & i totally respect him for that & what he pulled off here with a tiny budget is pure Awesomeness & he should be so proud of this movie. This is Kevin Smith putting a middle finger up to critics & haters & making something totally different & experimental in a way & it worked.
Made low-budget gritty, ferocious & darkly funny, Smith finally made a movie really worth checking out.
I'm an Atheist so i loved all the undertones of religion causing chaos & how evil breeds within it.
Red State is about three horny American teens meeting up with an older lady through Internet chats & end up captured in a church compound full of religious fanatics.
Felt like a mix of Eli Roth's Hostel & a police thriller & with the ferocious frantic camera movements used in 28 Days Later & it's sequel & used extremely well to create a panicked state.
Veteran character actor legend MICHAEL PARKS gives the performance of his Career here as a psycho preacher hellbent on delivering holy justice to his victims. Parks is outstanding & Oscar worthy here. What a blistering, outrageous & hilarious performance by Parks!!!
Equally the great John Goodman packs a powerhouse performance as a ATF officer who lays seige to the religious compound with orders to kill all inside.
Two powerhouse performances that lift the film to a higher level of Cinema quality that defies its small budget.
Red State is better than most major studio Big Budget films!!!
All performances are top notch, intense & powerful, everyone is so game to deliver a power punch of a film.
Yep with it's gritty cinematography, no music score, blood-soaked action & a quality mix of Horror & Police Thriller Red State delivers.
Action, shocks, dark humour & knockout performances made Red State a cult survival Thriller.
