From one of the freight cars jumps a weary-eyed transient with dreams of a fresh start in a new town. Instead, he lands smack-dab in the middle of an urban hellhole, a place where the cops are crooked and the underprivileged masses are treated like insignificant animals. This is a city where crime reigns supreme, and the man pulling the strings is known only as "The Drake." Along with his two cold-blooded and sadistic sons, Ivan and Slick, he rules with an iron fist, and nobody dares fuck with The Drake, especially not some hobo. Director Jason Eisener's blood-soaked return to the Sundance Film Festival is more than just a nod to the grindhouse flicks of the 1970s and '80s; he ups the ante in a major way, and Rutger Hauer's performance is a legendary display of brutal ass-kicking and meticulous name-taking that is not to be missed. -- (C) Magnet What to Expect : Grindhouse exploitation flick. The movie is heavy on violence, so if you can't take it, don't go see it. It's nice to see Rutger Hauer do some damage in full B-flick scenery-chewing mode.
Critical Response : Warm and fuzzy reception from the critcs. Nobody is claiming this is the next "Citizen Kane", but most agree that its earnest, unpretentious and gory presentation is unhinged fun. Currently 79% fresh on Rottentomatoes.com
