Review of Borderland (2007) by Java G — 04 Apr 2008
Wow, this was a urprisingly watchable and stylish entry into the After Dark Horrorfest lineup. This film feels like a South Of The Border take on Hostel with a Santeria twist.
The visuals are very color-saturated and blown out, ala Tony Scott's version of the world, and it really serves the film well.
The fairly graphic violence is shot in a grisly, matter-of-fact manner, and the allegations of the film being based on true events makes a trip to Mexico seem less and less appealing.
