Review of Raze (2013) by Dean K — 06 Dec 2014
Former stuntwoman for Uma Thurman (Kill Bill) and Lucy Lawless (Xena), Zoe Bell stars as a woman forced to fight 49 other women to the death in hopes that a madman (Doug Jones) and his bride (Sherilyn Fenn) won't kill her daughter.
Going in I was hoping this would either be a "female Bloodsport" or at least have B-Movie fun. I was wrong. The movie is brutal and it has no emotional core. There are lots of emotion depicted from the women but nothing resonates. Two name stars show up for cannon fodder for the lead.
In some ways I think director Josh C. Waller is a huge fan of Eli Roth's Hostel because there is lots of that here. The movie is just heartless. (1 out of 5) So Says the Soothsayer.
