Incredibly dull... and sloppily made
22 February 2021
I am a huge movie lover (as many of our readers might have noticed). My tastes are varied... great films, old films, modern films and more. But one of my weirdest desires is, from time to time, watch movies that are very obscure despite having famous actors in them. I have to point out that I saw this movie because of Lance Henriksen (Frank Black from MILLENIUM) as I consider him a great actor despite he has also made lots of obscure movies (and at times he is the best thing about the worst of those movies as he is very enjoyable and with one of the best voices ever). However this wasn't even enjoyable especially after the first 30 minutes.

When the film begins Lucas Cain (the always good Robert Patrick) returns in his snowy hometown after nearly 20 years, where his girlfriend and daughter live. The town is menaced by a gang of criminals led by Lyle Tyrus (Henriksen) and Cain has a debt with them. Rachel Cain meets her dad in the bar ''Rose's Cafe'' owned by the old Hec (the late Hal Holbrook) and there arrive Lyle's brother Norman and his henchman Wayne (Robert Englund) but Luke makes them go away.

I quickly forgot what happened after the summary I wrote as this film looked like a direct-to-video movie and it was all duller than dust! Very cheap cinematography, horrible direction and bland performances by respected actors such as Robert Patrick, Hal Holbrook, Robert Englund and Lance Henriksen... all this makes for a dull movie with nothing worth about it. The only reason I didn't gave it a 1 is because there weren't very gross scenes as the blood looked like ketchup sprayed with a kids' bottle!

Despite this bad movie is available on Youtube I won't recommend it to anyone!! Not even to bad movie fans as it's not that enjoyable nor funny and would only leave a bad taste in the mouth. And the fact that there are so few reviews here probably says a lot!
