The Violent Kind (18)
Verdict: The violent cruel, surely
Rating: A turkey
Few weeks pass without some new brutalised shambles being offered to audiences.
This week’s effort is a low-budget biker movie which starts out in a city with its thuggish, dope-smuggling heroes joyfully beating up some rivals for reasons that are never explained.
The violence, voyeuristically directed by the aptly named ‘Butcher Brothers’ (their real names are Mitchell Altieri and Phil Flores), moves to an even more sordid rural location.
The Violent Kind: Low budget and low in entertainment In turn the bikers are terrorised, demonically possessed and horribly tortured by assorted overacting weirdos, who turn out to be an advance party of wacko rockabilly aliens from outer space.
There’s absolutely no one to care about here.
The acting is abysmal, and the gloating depiction of violence is hard to take, unless you’re extremely thick and perverted.
Bikers and blood: The Violent Kind For anyone with taste and an I.Q. of over 50, this latest, exceptionally deranged and incoherent example of torture porn is the pits.
It doesn’t even have the sick, defiantly primitive sense of humour that made last week’s nastiest offering, Hobo With a Shotgun, just about bearable for the first five minutes.
