A teenaged girl
wakes up next to a man with a horribly
scarred face and is scared for her life. However, it
seems as if all he wants to do is tell her a story.
A story of love, ghost cowboys and a Tomb Raider-like
police department. Is this the ultimate terror?
It sure is. As I'm looking through my notes I see how
I've written down that the first 15 minutes of the
movie seemed like padding as they were just random
scenes thrown together basically with little to no
connection. This is not the case. The truth is that
this is how the entire movie goes down. I'd actually
be surprised if it turns out that this movie even
had a script longer than 10 pages. There's no story
to be found in here. It's random people getting
killed by some ghost cowboys with flame-throwing
guns. Towards the end they've tried to wrap things
up and make it seem like there was a story all along
to follow, but believe me, there wasn't. And what
did the killer skeletons have to do with anything?
Heck, what did anything have to do with anything
anyway. Dead Noon is quite possibly the single worst
horror western that I've seen to date. It is so
poorly constructed that anyone with an education in
film-making would feel insulted. It looks and feels like
a really bad student film but then why are there so
many companies attached to the project? What's even
worse is that instead of spending money on important
stuff, they've spent the majority of their very low
budget on ATROCIOUS CGI-effects - and lots of it.
Remember when Camp Blood was released back in the
early 2000's and everyone thought that it was the
cheapest-looking crap ever to be released on DVD?
Well compare Camp Blood to most of the DTV flicks
being released these days and you'll see how low
we've sunk since then. Dead Noon isn't even comparable
to Camp Blood in terms of quality.
If anything I would compare Dead Noon to porn. Not
because there's a lot of nudity in it because there's
not, but because I've seen low-budget porno’s with
a more complex story. I guess they tried to be artsy
at times but in the end I simply don't think that
these guys knew what they were doing at all. It all
seemed like it was a very unorganized project and
once again we have an artwork that's far better than
the movie behind it. If you're looking for a horror-
western, look elsewhere because there's very little
horror in here. I wouldn't exactly call guns horror
and the cowboys are anything but menacing. I don't
know what else to say, it was a piece of shit to
put it in simple English. An atrocity.
CGI-gore and flaming holes through peoples bodies.
Hahaha, you could be blind and still end up hating
this film. That's how bad the soundtrack was.
I wonder if anyone involved in this project is
actually proud of it. I would seriously doubt it.
I understand that one man's trash is another man's
treasure but... yeah... I just don't think that the
word treasure can be used together with this movie.
Horrible. Horrifyingly bad. Avoid.
