Tom W @Tw86123 Nov 29, 2025 It’s a cross between Evil dead and anime style kung fu. It’s hardly classic cinema but then again it isn’t trying to be. A well seasoned action flick fan should find plenty of enjoyment See more William L @RT77267842 Aug 2, 2022 Think of it as The Evil Dead meets Highlander meets The Matrix, that should give you a good idea of what's going on here. There's plenty of gore effects, sword and gunplay choreography, and unusual supernatural lore swirling around in this rather improvisational horror-comedy; characters can swoop in and out of the narrative at seemingly any point and serve as comedic relief just as easily as members of the main story. While the core narrative might not really pull you in, the enjoyment in Versus is more about the creative fight scenes, '80s body-horror effects, and frequent usage of mall-ninja weapons. It's not high art, but if you want some katanas mixed in with your early-career Sam Raimi, it's an easy film to pick up. (3/5) See more May 31, 2021 Simply the very worst garbage that my eyes have ever been subjected to. . For years i thought that ''The Blair Witch Project'' was the worst and most over-rated movie ever made, but then they made that sequel! Next, i thought that it might the terrible film adaptation of ''The Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy'' that was the worst film, because that nearly killed my love of the franchise. Or maybe ''No Country For Old Men'' was the worst ever, with it's stupid rip-off ''Sopranos'' style ending. . Then of course there is the complete abortion that is ''The DaVinci Code'' trilogy. But to be fair, they were merely film adaptations of what must be some of the worst books ever. . And then there's ''Tenet''. Bloated, pretentious, talking down to people while being nowhere near as clever as it likes to think it is. And with a performance from Kenneth Branagh that was so appalling that there are now web pages dedicated to it and just how bad it is. . But no, THIS is the worst movie that i have ever seen. We get promised a non-stop visual assault. But what we get is: The very worst writing, ever. The very worst directing, ever. The very worst characters, ever. The very worst camera work, ever. And, above all, the very, VERY worst acting, ever. And by light-years, rather than by miles. . This film pretty much opens with an endless, godawful, Tarentino-esqe stand off. But while trying to threaten and intimidate each other, the supposedly scary gangsters pull faces and do stupid gestures and movements that, in all honesty, if your three year old child was behaving like this then you would rush them to a doctor to get them checked out for being medically stupid. . And then, for no real reason, one of the gangsters turns into a zombie. . Now i'm all for low-budget, and ''so bad it's good''. But this is way beyond any of that. This makes films like ''The Toxic Avenger'' look like they have the budget of ''Independence Day'' or ''Terminator 2''. . If the marketing blurb for this dross had claimed that a film student had stayed drunk for his whole first week at film making collage, and that they'd put this together before taking any classes whatsoever, then it would still be worse than that sounds. . The acting and characters are so bad that i even feel embarrassed for the actual celluloid (or possibly video tape) that this garbage was originally filmed on. And if i have now said multiple times that this is the worst acting ever then believe me, it's worth repeating. . Normally, i would think it unfair to be like this about a film that i couldn't stand more than the first 15 minutes of before i started just skimming through the rest. But i'm 100% confident that, if anything, i am being overly kind and generous to this absolute dogs mess of a film. See more Jun 29, 2018 That stylish fusion of gangster thriller and zombie movie even outperforms The Matrix in its coolness while still winking at you. Highly enjoyable to viewers that have no problem with a little trash and J-cringe. See more May 27, 2017 It's like a Sam Rami horror movie that focuses too much on comedy. If you can imagine something cool, this movie will attempt to be cool, and fail. See more Nov 9, 2015 Complete Japanese Rip-off of Evil Dead. Others find it good, I find it boring.
