Death Factory

Havign watched a mountain's worth of independent, straigh-to-video horror films, I'm well aware of the problems many of them suffer from. I'm pleased to say that DEATH FACTORY rises above so many of its genre companions as a technically well-made flick. Lighting, sound and camera-work is all better than I'd expect to usually find. The acting is pretty average, with a cameo from Ron Jeremy. The film's biggest short-fall is a rather weak script that never breaks out of the genre's stereotypes. It was still a fun ride though, with a cool killer, tons of gore and even some nudity. Should please most horror fans.

I've seen some low-budget stinkers before, but this one took the cake! As I was watching it, I kept thinking of "Scream," which is such a vastly superior slasher flick compared to "Death Factory." I laughed even harder when Ron Jeremy showed up. The characters were cookie-cutter slasher-film victims, and the "creature" looked more like a reject from the Freddy Krueger School Of Slashing. The acting wasn't too terrible, but when a "horror" film makes you laugh more than scream or jump, then it's a total waste of time. I watched all the previews on the DVD, too, and those films looks like bombs, as well. I really would have hated to be on the clean-up crew for these films!

As a fan of low-budget, out-of-the-way movies (especially those that are unintentionally hilarious), I was pleasantly surprised by Death Factory. Don't get me wrong -- it isn't Oscar worthy by any stretch of the imagination, but they did manage to make a movie that was watchable and, for the most part, entertaining. Much like other low-budget horror/sci-fi flicks, this is best viewed with some buddies and some beer.

the movie was decent for a low budget junk flick.... But that guy Jason Flowers ( he played Troy ) was by-far the most entertaining person in the movie. And he could act. This guy is gunna be a big star one day.

good job cuz.

I have to admit, I really did like the Slasher, Alexa. It did not hurt that it was played by Tiffany Shepis from those Troma flicks.

And of course the great Ron Jeremy makes a cameo which gives this movie an extra star just for that.

Speaking of porn, I love the fact that this straight-to-video, obviously made on video horror flick had two nude scenes and one long love scene. It felt like a safety net just in case everyone thought the violence sucked.

I can see that considering they used buckets of blood and chop cut editing to create the gore they could not afford to do on camera. Most of the shoe string budget went into the slasher's costume which is not half bad.

Though the characters were very stock, from the virgin protagonist to the jive taking black dude.

I definitely like this movie for what it was.
