5/7/08 Tooth and Nail Review
Apologies for the lack of entries, but we have primarily been doing interviews for the past month.
"In a post-apocalyptic world, a small group of survivors, who call themselves Foragers, plan to rebuild civilization from their headquarters in an empty hospital based in what is left of Philadelphia. But they're soon forced into a face-off war with the Rovers, another gang of survivors whom are a brutal gang of cannibals. As the Rovers take out the Foragers one by one, the Foragers must draw on all their resources to stay alive."
Shot well, admirable gore, but the misuse of the talents of Madsen and Vinnie Jones makes me want to cry. The main cast (especially the blonde) are just awful save for Rider Strong who is doing what he's always done (feigning emotion by adding a stressful inflection to his voice). Why have the two biggest names in the film (Madsen and Jones) relegated to sidekicks of complete nobodies?! This, plus god awful writing and laughable plot, makes this yet another bad film in the tradition of shit that the 8 Films to Die For is famous for. 4/10 and goes on the Poop List, invented for movies such as this.
In other news our interviews with Thursday, Finch, A Girl A Gun A Ghost, and This Is An Empire are all online. We will be interviewing Anthony Green later today, which should be online before the summer is upon us. All the best.
