I had no idea what to expect (other than vague disappointment) when my hangover was so bad and this was the only movie I hadn't seen that was available at the time. I figured fine it will suck, but it can't be nearly as bad as the Pathfinder.
After seeing the whole film I can say with confidence this is no great gem of a movie (but still way better than the Pathfinder). It was however entertaining and at times had a Paul Verhoven feel to it with surprisingly hilarious scenes that pop out of nowhere.
All in all the film has a very 1970s-1980s graphic novel or action movie feel to it. It seems to be saying look we're going to have a really crazy plot that is just a vehicle to show some insanely violent scenes of people dying in horrid ways. Also I wanted to make a movie that combined zombie flicks, mad max movies and just for fu...x sake some medieval knights tossed in for good measure.
Lastly, this movie has a surprisingly good sound track. If you like darkwave or post punk you music should be pretty happy with the tracks they play in this film. They else fit the color and style of the film perfectly.
Is this a movie you'd want to impress a girl with? Not unless she was a goth... but it's a perfect film to watch with your nerd friends who still go and see super hero movies even when they know they'll most likely suck.
