      Audience Member Big bad bikers meets something bigger and badder. Starts like standard biker fare, then the bloodied bodies start to turn up... Then it's goes a bit zombie Lovecraftian mash-up. I absolutely love the '50s boys and that whole vibe - the swing, the rock'n'roll - the psychopathy - they're really great characters and deserved the film this could have been - because it could have been wonderful. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member not bad.. lots of blood :) Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member I have to say some of the actors were good and the story is sorta flaky, but i liked the imagination behind it lol Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Waste of a movie. Trying to be something its not, namely a movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member low budget movies like this can work really well,but this one fails miserably.most of the time it is either too dark or too fuzzy to comprehent what's happening,and what you can see doesn't add up to much.i was in the last 15mins before i even realised anyone had been killed and reading thje synopsis afterwards made me wonder if i was even watching the same flick. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Low budget and uninteresting plot line. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Sam Sweet L.A. Weekly Director Geoffrey Pepos wants to show that posttraumatic stress causes combat veterans to destroy themselves and the people they love, but he has little interest in unpacking his characters' war experiences beyond cliches. Oct 3, 2008 Full Review Read all reviews
