Description:
Though the film and holistic structure , yet he subtly creeps into two halves – the first chapter , the culmination of which is part of Bukowski and police shootout in the supermarket, and a second in which four cannibal (two glavgeroya , their comrade who actually steamed Bukowski and ate with the Vietnamese and then passing them bitten nurse ) running from the cops on sanitation ( no matter what reason have remained cannibals , so that they interact with each other as it should be for ordinary people ), and crowned it all quite sad ending .
I must say that “Apocalypse Cannibal ” quite favorably with many members of the cannibal films , a genre which is full at the time copies at a speed of five per year. Here not only cannibalistic habits , but also a family theme ( Norman loves his wife , but in passing ever look at a young neighbor ) , and touching on the theme of “uselessness ” of former veterans , proved to be unsuitable for a quiet life . Sometimes it was inherent in Jean Rollin , but if he was shooting a hat and often outright notorious social issues gab (eg , warm paternal feelings zombies in ” Lake of the Living Dead “), then Margheriti is manifestly insignificant budget trying to keep a straight face, and let the social background passing .
As part of the special effects picture did not make a mistake – will be a pair of shootings , caruncle , a fair amount of blood. Yes, and acting in the film is quite good – Saxon , Turner, Radice and others play perfectly . Decorates act moderately melodious music by Alexander Blokshtaynera . Nevertheless , the film lacks a bit of action in some moments . Frank nudyatiny not, just sometimes really like screen apocalypse.
In general, and general – the picture is a good thriller , sometimes blends in with all the drama and laced with vivid scenes of this action. Not brilliant genre, but rather conspicuous pattern.
