Review of Smash Cut (2009) by Moe R — 02 Oct 2012
I could care less about Sasha Grey, a porn actress, appearing in this film. Her acting sucks, maybe because she doesn't really do actual films . This is not the reason I wanted to watch this film though.
I wanted to to TRY and watch this film, but I couldn't get through it past 30 minutes. The fact it was filmed here in my hometown of Ottawa and directed by Lee Demarbre, whom I know, but not personally, I thought this would've been a good movie from what I've heard. I was wrong, this movie stunk worse than a bunch of rotten eggs. Well, not that much, but just about.
Smash Cut is apparently an "homage" to Herschell Gordon Lewis's films, but how was it? I don't think I'd want to know the rest after what happened in the remaining 55 minutes.
A director is struggling to make a film, and is suffering terribly So, what does he do? He decided to kill people and use their body parts as props for his upcoming film. It was nice to see Herschell Gordon Lewis, David Hess, and Ray Sager in here. However, the dialogue was mostly unneccessary to begin with for their characters.
It was cool using the Mayfair and the Bytowne theaters (my two favorites) for settings, but avoid this film at all costs.
