... 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 MoreBAD VS. WORSE is a cheapjack US horror film made in New York. It's about a trio of no-good hoods who decide to rob a house little realising that it's currently occupied by a serial killer busy torturing his latest victim. What follows will surprise nobody who has previously seen THE COLLECTOR, of which this is a big rip-off.Given that this is a zero budget production, BAD VS. WORSE has virtually nothing to offer the viewer. There's a lot of scenes involving people being held in captivity but not much in the way of bloodshed and certainly no atmosphere. Some of the dialogue tries to be funny but fails every time. The camera-work ranges between the bad and the occasionally good, but overall this is a time waster.
... View MoreThis is my first review. I'm prompted to write this review after reading many a bad reviews for movies that deserve more credit.Bad vs Worse being one of them. First off...directing was a solid effort and so was the acting pretty good. I never seen the comedy aspect in this movie...actually this whole movie got completely crazy with gore half way or more thru the movie. I am a horror fan...and for myself...that's why I go see horror flicks...for the gore and violence. This one delivered.Really good!
... View MoreThe Plot.A young man persuades his younger brother into robbing a chain of houses with them. Unfortunately for them, one of the houses on their list belongs to a sadistic serial killer.Once again, the only super review on IMDb is from a guy who only reviewed this film -- in other words, he worked on it.The movie is VERY amateurishly directed. The acting is pretty poor overall.The only saving grace is the basic story which is interesting but not enough to compel you to stick through this movie.Too bad. Would have been way better in the hands of a director who knew how to sustain the tension.

View MoreWith a slow build up that leads into a roller coaster like down swipe of brutal imagery and nerve wreaking suspense new comer Gus Trapani explodes onto the indie scene with an emotionally charged Thriller that not only tops any suspense film I've seen from the Indie scene in a very long time but makes Hollywood look like the work of chimps! The acting here was out of this world! The repertoire between the two brothers left me in awe, On the surface we see such hatred and hostility towards each other but with an often shining through fierce dedication to one another that tells us that the now distant brothers were once very close. The depth with which these characters were portrayed and the amount of emotion the actors mustered up was nothing short of amazing, when i looked into them and discovered this was the first major role either one of them had I was even more impressed.The character of the Killer was another one that just threw me for a loop. First of all this guy is neither a big and hulking mutated psychopath nor a handsome alluring man, He's a completely average looking blue collar type. The type you'd see in the supermarket or even in the cubicle next to you and never give a second glance. This made him all the more terrifying and his self assured calm approach even when he realizes his domicile is compromised is far creepier then any mask or eradicate behavior could be. This is a man that enjoys his acts of inhumanity but is completely aware of what he is doing. He's far from crazy, he's simply evil. The skill with which this actor plays this role, (who doesn't have a single spoken line by the way) almost makes me want to break this site's rule against actor name dropping..but I won't, you need to see this character without thinking about the actor.The biggest attraction this film had in my opinion (besides the great acting and stellar story) was the camera work, which was completely sure handed and remained pretty standard, that is until the scenes with the killer's house came up and multiple color filters as well as wide angle overhead shots were utilized to give the house a nightmarish, unsettling quality. The interior shots began with a light blue filter which rendered everything virtually colorless giving the scene an unnatural dream-like quality, but as the scenes progressed further in a red filter and a green one were also utilized. From speaking with the director I know this was meant to symbolize the blue collar nature of the killer and the moral decay resting within him but to me it came across feeling like Purgatory giving way to hell.The overall picture of this film came across as a reverse situation version of Funny Games if it had been directed by Dario Argento, Director Gus Trapani showed a level of expertise and artistic flair with this (his first film) That even the greats of the genre take years or even decades to master and does it with a budget of only 10 grand! -to see The full review go to B-IS For Best Movie Reviews And More
