It is a performances centric movie
A Masterpiece!
Is it important that you catch this little British ditty? Not really. It's really nothing more than a collegiate flick for a student's final. The acting was poor and could've easily been done by the filmmaker's extended family. This version of 'A Day of Violence' had some colour issues, too. The general hue was de-saturated browns; blood looks black or dark brown and the general lighting was sepia-toned, even black and white in some areas.Yes, the film was uneven, but something about it did grasp my attention. Maybe it was the ultra violence. I believe this is the first time I've seen an upside down man have his nards removed by garden shears. Gruesome, indeed. Kinda looked real, too. It's the scene that was missing from 'Grotesque'. I guess in Japan they have very little prosthetic penises so you have to make do with what's there.This "film" looked like it was shot digitally. I do wish they either improve that medium or get rid of it altogether. It just doesn't work for movies. It makes the presentation look way too amateurish. I do give the movie some points for editing; at least it wasn't slow paced once the action started. Oh, well. It wasn't a total waste. I do enjoy those British accents, eh wot?
This is one of the worst films ever made. There are a lot of films on the IMDb that have suffered that accusation but in this case it could actually could be true.The first sign that this is a cut and paste oater made with no care is the casting. Various rent-a-thug types play various rent-a-thugs ...badly.These people always appear doing the same thing in zero budget British trash. They're not actors and they should stop pretending they are.There is no plot, no character and the dialogue is embarrassing. Real actors couldn't say it convincingly let alone the talentless no-hopers here.Despite opening with a sex scene and a couple of very violent and graphic torture scenes this is a very boring film.There are no good points.
Mitchell (Nick Rendell) is a hard man debt collector who thinks he's hit it big time when he stumbles across £100,000 while collecting a debt from addled drug dealer Hopper (Italian horror veteran Giovanni Lombardo Radice)However, it turns out that the money belongs to his new boss, gangster Curtis Boswell (victor D Thorn) who promptly sends Mitchell to find his loot. So begins a nightmare for Mitchell, who must stay one step ahead of his crime colleagues if he wants to stay alive...A Day Of Violence is nothing special trash, and I've no problem with trash per se- as long as it's entertaining, but unfortunately, it isn't. Shot on video, it has unconvincing performances from Victor Thorn as the rather well spoken crime boss, as well as clichéd hard men in black suits spouting pretty woeful dialogue. It has one or two nice gore scenes and director Darren Ward's heart is in the right place, as the film is nicely exploitative. It just isn't very good, and you won't really care what happens to the characters anyway.A Highly disappointing and mediocre film, it's probably best watched drunk, or else not watched at all, because nobody's missing anything here at all.
This film starts right off the bat with a hot sex scene, I feared that it might be the high point of the film. I just didn't realize how low it would go and quickly it would get there. What didn't go quickly was the horrifically graphic castration by garden shears scene that followed, which seemed to drag for some 7-10 minutes (I'm not watching it again just to time it). I watch a lot of films, this offended like few others ever have. These guys were obviously proud of the prosthetic (I hope) scrotum and testicles, which got thrown around and a featured in several close up shots. I feel scarred for life by that interminable scene. The rest of the movie? Where it wasn't predictable, it turned on preposterous premises... In the end the whole movie was that savage and pointless (in terms of story development) celebration of emasculation. Why?
