Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting
Connianatu How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.
Michael O'Keefe An action horror flick with undead cowboys, skeletons and ancient demons all in current time. An old west outlaw(Robert Bear)makes a deal with devil and returns to present day with a gang of zombie cowboys to seek vengeance on the small town of Westin. The only law in town is the newlywed Sheriff Logan Kane(Scott Phillips)and his arrogant and power hungry brother Stuart(Robert Andrus). This may be one time the law does not win. Story line is pretty stupid; acting is atrocious; but special effects are cool...smoking skeletons and flaming zombie cowboys. Also in the cast: Elizabeth Mouton, Lilith Fields, Nick Martin and Kane Hodder.
StudioLAX I put this on expecting to turn it off after ten or twenty minutes but was engaged enough to watch it to the end.It's not brilliant but it is fun, some of the other criticisms are unfair but some accurate, the director has been far too ambitious as evidenced by too many cheap looking FX shots (that said some are pretty good) and action sequences.Given the obvious source material of High Noon I think sticking closer to that story line and racking up the tension with less reliance on dynamic scenes would have been better. This of course would have required half decent acting which for the most part was pretty ropey, but the three leads are competent particularly Elizabeth Mouton.Criticisms aside this film is better than many films a hundred or even a thousand times the budget and wouldn't look out of place on late night TV.All in all a good effort.
dschmeding Dead Noon pretty much fails due to high goals of the director and a low budget that ruins a lot of the effects in this mix of horror and western elements. The opening is OK although the low budget is obvious in most shots. I have to credit the makers of the movie for still squeezing a lot out of their tight budget because some of the FX work pretty good, so when the first Zombie-Cowboys appeared it was still OK, although the ridiculous amount of shoot-outs and hunts with barely any dialog soon gets hard to bear and makes little sense. But when then skeleton armies appear, puppets are flying from cliffs, the stiff acting of many actors kills the plot which is pretty hard to stay focused on while being distracted by people running through abandoned cities and shooting with obvious stock-FX flares. Some scenes like most including the main "good guy" (who is really a bad cast for this role) for his stiff acting or the ridiculous fight scenes are hard to watch. While there was some decent parts the movie failed to build up tension or unfold the story in an interesting way. So its not just the effects and acting which make Dead Noon tank. Many parts are plain boring although there is permanent running and shooting. But its so repetitive and meaningless that you soon stop to care.
biglou1984 This is movie is a blast! It's "High Noon" done as a horror western. Some bandits return to take vengeance on a sheriff, who recently married and stays to protect the town rather than run away with his wife. The difference is, these bandits were killed by the sheriff's ancestor over a hundred years ago. And they've been released not from prison, but from hell and begin destroying the town.I saw this film at the "Tabloid Witch Awards Film Festival" last year. It was there I learned they made this film for $4,000.00. Which still amazes me. This does not look or feel like a four thousand dollar film at all. It's full of action and gun fighting. And some wicked special effects considering the budget. I recently saw the version which LionsGate bought and is releasing. I must say, I liked the original better. The music was much more dirty and gritty. And the story flowed a little better. The cute blonde (Lillith Fields of Urban Legends: Bloody Mary) was in it much more (including a shower scene). There was also a lot more comedic moments. I guess a studio's gotta do, what a studio's gotta do. BUT, the LionsGate/Barnholtz version still has a hell of a bite and they added one great element to it. KANE HODDER (Jason Voorhees of Friday the 13th)! It was so nice to see Kane rocking some dialogue and looking like his extremely intimidating self. I'm very happy to see this film got picked up and distributed. It'd be great to see more indies out there to freshen' up the film world. Once again gotta say, for a $4,000.00 dollar film, this one knocked my socks off!
