Paul Magne Haakonsen First of all, it should be said that the low rating on IMDb should be a straight up warning that you should take heed of before you sit down to watch "Seed".Personally, I have nothing against Uwe Boll or his skills as a director, but this movie was just downright bad. The storyline was as simple as it comes, and as generic as they come. A killer sentenced to death is set to be executed in the electric chair. When this fails to take the life of the serial killer, the prison warden decides to bury the man alive. However, the deranged serial killer digs himself free and seeks vengeance by killing those responsible for his execution.Well, the story was almost non-existing, and what was there was just ridiculously bad to the point of it being ridiculous. And the characters in the movie were equally devoid of anything interesting. Michael Paré played a very indifferent Detective Matt Bishop, Will Sanderson played the serial killer with no particular memorable trademark Max Seed, and Ralf Moeller played Warden Arnold Calgrove whom seemed to possess no logical sense whatsoever.The only thing even remotely worthwhile sticking around to watch in "Seed" is the amount of violence, blood and mayhem. However, don't get your hopes up, because it is nowhere near enough to salvage this movie. And also take into consideration that some of the gore and special effects were awful to look at, as it was particularly fake and so obviously CGI animated - badly animated, at that.And there were some interesting, albeit kind of disturbing, scenes of various deaths and decomposition being shown, which was graphic. And it might actually be a bit too graphic for some viewers. And the same goes for the scenes with the torture of dogs.All in all, "Seed" is not a movie that is really worth the time, money or effort. And if you like horror movies, then there are far, far better choices available for a fulfilling entertaining experience.

Leofwine_draca So, Uwe Boll does a serial killer flick, albeit one with a supernatural slant. A hulking masked killer is sent to the electric chair only to come back from the dead, seeking revenge. This is by far the worst Boll film I've seen, worse even than BLOODRAYNE and ALONE IN THE DARK, because it manages to be completely offensive as well as execrable.The film begins with needless scenes of real-life animal torture provided by PETA. They're there to shock, and that's it. Then we watch various things die, including a baby in the most distressing scene. More junk designed to shock and desensitise the viewer. Finally the film becomes a predictable, shot-in-the-dark slasher flick, with a random killer murdering endless cops and innocent victims.Later on, there's a stand-out scene of Seed beating in a woman's head in a kitchen which lasts for around five minutes. That's it - just mindless sadism, unnecessary and completely stupid. SEED is as bad as it can be, with rubbish performances, really bad production values, zero story, and awful direction. Michael Pare might be the king of B-movies but he needs to see sense and stop appearing in movies like this one.

BA_Harrison Director Uwe Boll is commonly regarded as a terrible film-maker, and his sick psycho killer flick Seed is unlikely to radically alter this general perception, being an absolute mess in the script department; however, if nothing else, it does prove that Boll has balls.Packed full of sadistic, no-holds-barred violence, the film is truly nasty stuff from start to finish, the director clearly not intending to make any new friends; as a result, I can't help but feel a sneaking admiration for this movie maverick, a man for whom the words 'quit', 'diplomacy' and 'restraint' obviously do not exist.During the opening credits, Boll even has the nerve to show PETA footage depicting real-life atrocities perpetrated on defenceless animals; I can only guess that this was an attempt to show the viewer just how inhumane people can be, but it comes across as a cheap tactic to shock the audience.Thankfully, everything from here on in is achieved through special effects, although with numerous graphic murders, a baby among the many victims, it's still definitely not for the easily offended. A prolonged hatchet attack on an elderly woman is perhaps the film's most nauseating moment (although as this particular spot of carnage escalates, the somewhat iffy CGI makes it slightly less effective). Yes, Boll sure knows how to upset and disturb; all he needs to do now is perfect telling a decent story (one that isn't so obviously flawed), hire a decent lighting technician (some scenes were way too dark), and he might be able to silence his critics without having to punch their lights out.4.5/10, rounded up to 5 for IMDb.

Seventhsin ofaseventhsinner (dragonkings01) If at least the cruelty and drawn out deaths had a purpose to the story to justify their inclusion but the script was just unintelligible and just plain stupid.It went nowhere, the story had no legible continuity. It was just a bunch of drawn out pointless snuff scenes and a really stupid ending tacked on as if to say.. "the end *beep* you my haters and my few defenders for watching my garbage."I don't get it, a masked murderer who never had his mask removed in prison, a prison rape scene that was suppose to be the guards raping a a ugly deformed serial killer and getting killed by him and nothing else? no explanation, no punishment, a really weak main cop character that was a waste of a actor like Pare, who didn't try to off the guy who killed his cops, tortured a baby, a woman and a dog and sent them to you to watch on video.Cops who for some unknown reason all wandered off in the dark by themselves (individually) in his farm house at night like a bunch of poorly written teenage characters to be killed one at a time like a bunch of idiots, and no other cop hears them die in the darkness one after the other and just keep wandering around for no reason till each is killed in turn. A bunch of horrible real life animal snuff scenes in the beginning for no reason or explanation, was he reminiscing, was he watching it to masturbate, was it comedy for him... what was it? nope Boll just thought to throw it in to upset animal lovers.. whatever. then Pare believing the word of a psycho path to let his family go if he kills himself... a more gullible, stupider cop you never saw in a film. I dunno why I try not to totally hate his works. I try to find some reason to explain a horror writers art but this stuff... pure crap. Boll what are you doing anymore? I hope you figure it out because I know a lot of more deserving people who can't dream to get the budget you get over and over again to make their movies.If you want to see Boll actually at his best check out "Postal" it was actually okay.
