Review of Faust: Love of the Damned (2000) by Don S — 24 Jun 2011

Laughable horror film is both unnecessarily bloody and repellant in its imagery. After John Jasper's (played by Mark Frost) girlfriend is killed, he signs a deal with the devil, Mephistopheles, in order to get revenge on her murderers.

An already sloppily written screenplay that's directed in awkward nonlinear flashbacks is marred by atrocious acting and distastefully graphic violence (which I should also mention is also done poorly).

I admit to walking out of Faust: Love of the Damned 2/3 of the way through, which may make my review irrelevant. Interestingly, I felt the urge to seek more pleasurable means of entertainment; entertainment that would excite me and engross me.

Life is already so short and to spend it watching films like this is simply wasting what little time we're given.
