I don't know why this movie is even made in the first place. There's barely any story in this movie because it just random characters meet each other and them getting killed off. The movie barely has any build-up or tension to be found in it and doesn't explore the characters' backstory. I mean, each of these characters has something going on with them in their personal life, but the movie doesn't even bother going into their issues. Also, the killer plotline feels like it came out of nowhere and doesn't even have a good build-up towards itself. It feels like the filmmakers are on a time schedule because current things happen pretty quickly or don't even go into deeper. The revealed itself feels like it came out of nowhere and doesn't impact the movie at all. Even the climax itself is underwhelming. It seems like the movie tries to have the characters to have depth to them, but doesn't bother with it. Most of them are one-dimensional and lack any development for them to feel for them. While each one of them are different, like newlywed serial killers, a depressed cop, and two young runaways with a disturbing secret, they barely try to have development for them and feel like afterthoughts. There one scene where the female serial killer and the teen runaway somewhat have a moment together, but they barely build up the relationship between them. Even the killer is an afterthought. And the acting itself is pretty bland.
Bastard is a movie that is the only positive is the death scene, while the rest feels like an afterthought. Skip this movie.
