Cut and Run (1984)
3/10
Some gore, not much else.
4 April 2019
This is one of those movies I recall from the days of VHS tape rental stores. Cut and Run was one of the well know video nasties that had a reputation around it for extreme violence. Its an Italian made 80s movie of the "white people get killed by cannibals" micro genre. There are a couple of secondary narratives about drug dealers, the Jonestown Massacre and a missing man but the movie basically exists to show a few extreme murders. Nothing is really explained as to why what is happening is happening and there is zero character development, you couldn't care less who gets killed. It actually quite boring and despite a few well known faces, including Eric La Salle as a pimp in purple there is nothing really engaging or believable to keep you interested. The only real value in this movie is if you are inclined to see a few gory deaths using old style special effects. And thats pretty much it, what was possibly a cult 80s horror movie turns out to be a borefest by current standards. Its just not a very good movie.
