Only a few short years after turd-marketing expert, and olive-oil- salesman-cum-blogger, Alex Ferrari, unleashed upon the world, his horrid short "Broken", he decided to get further revenge on the cinematic universe by releasing another one of his inane, plot less, and horribly over acted shorts.. the Little Red Riding Hood ripoff, imaginatively called "Red Princess Blues"

Mr. Ferrari truly went out to lunch polishing this turd.. He got a nice and shiny Red camera, he hired concept and storyboard artists, set designers, special FX experts, stunt coordinators, etc to create this monsterpiece..

Unfortunately.. Mr. Ferrari forgot the most important part of a short: an interesting story, and a good plot.

As it is customary with Mr. Ferraris' juvenile shorts, the direction of the actors is non-existent, the acting is cartoonish, amateurish and over the top.. the action scenes are laughable, the whole thing has a almost comical feel to it, which is obviously not intentional, because when this disaster was produced, Mr. Ferrari probably harbored in his 30-something- year-old tiny brain the hope that he was going to be "discovered" and become the next Tarantino or Robert Rodriguez, despite his obvious lack of anything remotely resembling story-writing talent.

This short is so bad, it feels like a spoof of a bad action movie.

Fortunately for all those who have higher film making aspirations, the universe has pushed back in kind revenge against Mr. Ferrari, and has made his inane blog popular, thus condemning thousands of his mentally stunted followers to dwell in the primordial soup of suck that Mr. Ferrari has been residing in, all his life, because following the advice of a failed filmmaker, can't lead to anything but failure... You could even say that Mr. Ferrari is the Jim Jones of indie film making, giving kool-aid advice to hundreds of unsuspecting fools a via a blog, thus condemning them to cinematic hell, but dear reader.... sssshhhh please, don't tell anyone, let's keep this our secret, OK?

Thanks Mr. Ferrari for clearing the path for real talent.

Some Nice Style

Red Princess Blues (2010)

** 1/2 (out of 4)

A girl is invited to go into a tent where a carnival is being ran. Once back there she realizes it's just not her crowd but the big bad wolf (or wolves) sets his eyes on her and soon she realizes that she's in danger.

This is basically a take off on the Little Red Riding Hood story but instead of an actual wolf the "wolves" here are older men who like to drink alcohol and mistreat the women. Director Alex Ferrari brings quite a bit of style to the picture and for the most part it's an entertaining short but there's no question that there are a few flaws here including the lack of any real story. The characters for the most part are good and as I said there's certainly some nice style here.
