Syo Kennex How does one review a film that has so many flaws, but ends up being just so damn... amazing?Flaws:First of all, this film really did not seem to care about continuity. Within the first scene, we see Adam decapitate someone's arm, and he is entirely covered in blood. Within the next scene, he's only got some spray on him, and then he's covered in blood again. There are many instances like this, and it's obvious to the viewer. But - as obvious as it is, you just don't care! There are obvious, glaring flaws in the continuity, but they just don't matter. There aren't many people that will watch this for anything other than the fact it is a gory horror film - that's it's charm.Secondly, the acting is... not so great. The film itself is very symbolic, and seems to have put more importance on getting that right, more than having the actors do stuff through the acting. But as bad as the acting seems, the characters are all... amazing. They all felt real. They all felt human. They all felt like someone you could find in the street and not some horror film character who is destined a bloody death.There's something strange about this film - it's flaws make it what it is, the flaws make it... good. The importance with the flaws is what makes this film what it is and that's something that not many film makers can do.The only serious flaw was the CGI was really bad and really broke the overall feel of the film, but again, some of the CGI scenes were really well done, and it looked really good - especially in the scenes with the old film reel effect on top of it. That did look really good, and that was well done, but the majority of it made me chuckle. The story of this film, is romantic in a way. A man goes on a hellbent demonic killing spree to get revenge on his wife, and although it may not seem romantic, the ending, the meaning, the subjectivity of it all really brings it all together in a way that I don't think a romance film could ever really do. Adam struggles, he fights, he just wants to see his wife.The symbolism behind it is just something I can't explain, I don't know how to explain it, but it's there throughout the film. You can see it, you can feel it, and you can really feel what the film wants you to feel, as long as you're not too caught up in the gorefest. It took me two goes watching it to really fully get the symbolism, and honestly, I'm not even sure if I have 100% gotten it.There is so much I could talk about within this film, but I'm not going to. I'm just going to say, if you like gore films, and you don't mind reading subtitles, definitely give this a watch! I was taken aback and totally stunned by this, and I don't think I would have enjoyed this film as much if it had been done in any other way than it was. Thank you, to everyone who made this film. It's seriously one of the best out there - and very probably, true to its tag line as the bloodiest film ever.

djangozelf-12351 This over the top horror movie surprised me because it just kept getting better. Maybe the special effects are not top notch but there very functional to the story. Adam of course steels the show here but all the other actors are given they're moments and I especially liked the crime boss and his way of reasoning.It made me think of manga films but than without the Japanese quirkiness and to me it seem to represent a sort serious absurdity. Besides that there was interesting visuals of the city that some times felt really gritty while in other scenes some what simple but not disturbing in any way.I don't know what the budget was on this but I guess its low and there for high in regard because I put it on the same level as the crow and even the matrix,which I both loved and would rate even higher than this but they also cost a tenfold more than this movie if not even more.Some what sad to see so little reviews on this but maybe its because its Italian or just not everybody's cup of tea.If you are some one like me who likes something different now and again I highly recommend this Italian bloody espresso horror.Enjoy!

Neil Welch Adam Chaplin is an Italian horror film whereby the protagonist seeks revenge on those who killed his wife, aided and abetted by a demon who kind of lurks just behind him.Those who have reviewed this to date seem to love it based, it appears, on the vast amount of blood and violence it contains.I thought it was awful. Visually unappealing, technically poor, with a demon comprising a woefully unexpressive headmask. Dire special effects, ropey acting.But, yes, lakes of blood. Lakes and lakes of it.This is rubbish. Don't waste your time.

Greenzombidog Adam Chaplin is the story of a man who wants revenge for the murder of his wife. This desire for vengeance has seen him strike a deal with a nameless demon who has made his home just behind Adams' right shoulder. The outcome of this deal has given Adam some insane fighting powers which will be giving the local deformed gang boss and all his unlucky stooges a real headache.Anyone familiar with the Manga or anime "The fist of the North star" will love this movie. It's like they've brought the crazy violence from this story to life only with a guy who looks like a male stripper as the lead. The gore is just outrageous heads are smashed arms are pulled off, people explode. The movie is obviously a small production so the effects are on a budget but that just means that these guys have had to be creative. There are some pretty neat little touches in this movie that I hadn't seen before, I especially like the effects for the demon when he appears although it's very basic I think it was very effective. The gore effects in this movie are mostly practical there's a tiny bit of CG in there but overall it's got that old school feel. It really is a triumph in these respects. The final rooftop battle is really impressive and worth the price of admission alone.The only thing I found lacking was the story. A lot of what is said in the synopsis is not actually said in the film. Also the ending seemed a little rushed which was a real shame as the film has a great look and feel with some quite fitting music too.The lo-fi production may put a lot of people off but if your gore hound or you enjoyed the "The story of Ricky" you should definitely check this one out.
