Review of Cut and Run (1985) by Tico P — 16 Nov 2010

THEY HAVE FOUND OUT THE TRUTH NOW THEY MUST TELL THE WORLD!

100% my all time favorite action movie its violence but Italian style. Cut and run is no doubt the strangest action movie I have ever seen it's a mix off all sorts of genres but I will get into that later. Ruggero Deodato created the most controversial movie ever made a cannibal holocaust witch was banned in over 50 countries worldwide making it the most heavily banned film ever made. Before that he created a shocker called last cannibal world in were a group of oil workers get trapped and are captured by a cannibal tribe. Now Ruggero Deodato with financial backing from New World Pictures and costing a staggering more then $15 million dollars he crated cut and run.

Somewhere in South America a major drug operation is underway with people already packing it and starting to move it then out of the water a skilled white assassin kills more then 3 people and he is leading a cannibalistic native tribe to advance on the area. Within no time all the people are killed and the assassin Quecho sees 2 people watching from a plane in a harry he leaves. The tribe he was with beings to tear at the rest of the living people and eat them.

Back in Miami a reporter and he cameraman have a major scoop that a women in back backing drugs to her boyfriend and stake out the house knowing they can get high ratings from an FBI arrest. But after some time of watching they enter the house only to find the dealers dead and the women having her insides out all over the place but they find a photo of that looked like the killer. Not long after they leave fran (the reporter) has a felling she knows the man in the photo and not long after they find out the day before the Johns Town Massacre the man in the photo had major ties to Jim Jones and his town.

The reporter and her camera man both head off to the jungle because they might have the scoop of the century about a major drug operation and witch an assassin is trying to get everything for himself.

But like I said before it's really cool because it's a mix off all genres not just action and adventure such as.

-Drug running and operations.

-Cannibal films.

-Splatter films.

-Horror.

-Mondo films.

What I love about the movie is just the story epic from start to finish it has everything an action film could need.

-Major shootouts.

-assassins.

-Cannibal tribes.

-Amazingly epic explosions.

-Awesome helicopter gun fire on the action scenes.

-And most of all an epic ending.

The acting its self is extremely good for an Italian film this is rare but all cast and crew were English including its lead Michael Berryman we know him from the hills have eyes. With his deformed body like shape witch makes him the perfect villain. The dubbing was extremely good I am only saying this because I am not sure weather there were Italian stars or Ruggero just wanted everyone to be English.

The special effects are really good the kill scenes are just epic the special effects are everything you would see in an action film and of course Ruggero famous trademark realistic and explicit gore. Film has a great soundtrack and awesome scenery shots of the jungles and epic sets to destroy. Some of my favourite death scenes are.

-Quecho throws the guard off the edge and gets impaled.

- Quecho guts the stabs in the neck a guard and uses his gun to shot everyone in the room.

-They running throw the jungle and one of the native's hits there own trap and spicks hit him in the gut. The more he pulls the more organs fall out.

Overall all I can say is this is my all time favourite action film and if you have Netflix ORDER IT you wont be disappointed. My final verdict highly FUCKING recommended.
