How sad is this?

Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Aubrey Hackett
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

From the word GO, this movie offers visuals that are nice, but a little too dark. Lots of gore and gross-outs take place, but all in a dark, neon lit world. The editing is way too choppy and the scenes too similar. The only way that you know that you have switched scenes from an dimly neon lit apartment to a dimly neon lit strip club, is the sudden appearance of topless girls and poles. With a little more editing and maybe a voice- over to let you know things like "Then we went down to the Satan's Balls strip club" etc. it would have been more watchable. Lots of potential, but I turned it off.

This movie is a total piece of crap. All the other reviewers are lying because they had a part in making it.Every person involved this trash should be deeply ashamed. If I helped get this movie made, I would cry myself to sleep each night and engage in various forms of self mutilation each morning.Don't believe anything that other guy said. He must have worked on the film. Everything he wrote is a total lie. This movie is worthless.If you like it, you're stupid. It's not even so good it's bad. It's just all bad all the time.This movie should be used as an enhanced interrogation technique in CIA black sites.

Jimmy Chevelle (Jawara Duncan) is a top secret diabolical supernatural hunter in Camaroville. He encounters various monsters while hunting down the Knights of Chaos poised on resurrecting a demon.The film was shot on green screen so they managed to create a wonderful surreal background. The campy monsters were fairy decent, except for that first one which look liked awkward rubber extensions.The plot was blah. The music was hit and miss and played too loud in some of the scenes.The acting was campy by design, but where the filmed failed was dialogue. There were zero clever lines that caught my attention. Instead it was attempts at being funny that failed. Perhaps a younger audience would enjoy this film. It is a shame that they wasted all the effort on a bad script with a director that didn't seem to know what he was doing.Guide: F-word. Plenty of topless dancers.

The Sacramento-based production company responsible for the long-running "Trash Film Orgy" delivers a love letter to fans of the campy grindhouse subgenres so often featured there.A fun blend of Blaxsploitation and Cultsploitation, this new take on a classic mythos will leave you hypnotized and entertained. From start to finish, Badass Monster Killer immerses you in the "red-light dystopia" of Camaroville-- a veritable rat's nest of crime and sleaze, hinting at a very dark, sinister, and unknown past. Jimmy Chevelle and Reverend Dellamorte serve as playful nods to the tropes most associated with their roles, and the unlikely interplay between these two archetypes is that of a refreshing originality.Though it draws much from camp, Badass Monster Killer stands on its own as a movie. The story defies expectations one might otherwise place on works of similar influence. We are taken along with Jimmy around corners and through a looking glass while investigating and putting a stop to funky supernatural horrors.The practical effects along with tasteful CGI are excellent, and the original score is itself a work of art that combines with the visuals to create a unique experience.Badass Monster Killer is a new standard for how far a low budget can be stretched, and everyone involved with the production clearly loved what they were doing.This is one of the best movie experiences I've had, and since DVDs were available at the premiere I've gone back and watched it multiple times.This movie makes me proud to be from Sacramento and it gets a 10.
