... View MoreI think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

... View MoreSkin Traffik is the love letter to the grind house era that Rodriguez and Tarantino's Grindhouse failed to send. Every element is overdone to near perfection: the corny acting, the gratuitous bloody gore, the flamboyant action scenes and choreography. Obviously, the film latches its appeal to a very specific audience and anyone familiar with the action genre will love it, leaving the rest in the dust. But for what the film planned to achieve, you can't leave without thinking that Paiaya succeeded. Skin Traffik is cult action cinema of the highest quality. With an all-star cast to die for this independent film delivers where all others fail. It's inventive and has a lot of heart considering one man 'Ara Paiaya' made it all. Remarkable!
... View MoreThis could have easily been a direct to video movie from the 1990's. Regardless of the era, this movie somehow found its way from the bottom of the barrel and made its way onto DVD. Even so, I thought I'd give it a go. Worst 10 minutes of my life.The cast which is made up of actors that are well past their prime including Gary Daniels (Fist of the North Star), Mickey Rourke (Angel Heart), Eric Roberts (Runaway Train), Daryl Hannah (Wall Street), Dominique Swain (Face/Off), Michael Madsen (Reservoir Dogs), Jeff Fahey (The Lawnmower Man), and Alan Ford (Snatch). Although Mickey Rourke had his career resurrected with The Wrestler (2008), he must have been desperate for the money to appear in this crap. Eric Roberts and Michael Madsen certainly don't do their careers any favours here. Dominque Swain, who was on the pathway to being the "It" girl in the late 90's, looks like she will never get her career back.The 90's called. Their want their direct to video movie back.Don't waste your time and money with this garbage. You can find better entertainment elsewhere.1/10.
... View MoreA fun action movie that doesn't break new ground. A lot of movies with ultra cool dudes don't do very well in making you believe that the main character has the skills but not this movie. This movie sets up the rest of the movie perfectly and, even though the story is about as run of the mill as it gets, it was still a very fun movie to watch. With a cast of characters perfect for this ultra 80's / 90's action style extravaganza. We meet the character Bradley a stoic – at times emotionless – demeanour, and with homages to films from action's golden age. Skin Traffik not only becomes a movie with huge connections to three previous decades due to the star studded cast. It becomes one of the best independent action films of 2015.
... View MoreEnjoyable film bit of a Taken Reboot but with a much cooler cast and better hand to hand combat. I would recommend this to anyone who likes action and seeing lots of stars in one movie for example like in The Expendable films. Gary Daniels is at the peak of his powers as a killing machine in this British action film. Paiaya delivers a film which plays like one prolonged, glorified action sequence, in which dialogue and characterisation are strictly secondary. Bradley (Gary Daniels) leaves corpse after corpse in his wake, the storytelling becomes more and more preposterous – it's saving grace is the sheer operatic excess of the bloodletting. Certainly a timeless DTV action classic and even more so when you think of all the star power involved.
