In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

I like Danny Trejo but I prefer he played as a villain instead of the hero. After Machete, he rarely got antagonist role, including this film when he's the protagonist. Mickey Rourke and Danny Trejo playing together in one movie, so it's supposed to be something, right... In the mean time, let's bring back Danny Trejo to his roots of evil.

Dead on Arrival, this DTV Movie is just Awful. Once again They hire an Epileptic Cameraman that is in Denial. The Vision is that anything is not worthy of being On Screen unless it is a Shaky Whip-Pan and Quick Cut. This results in Motion Sickness. Please, Hollywood take notice. Stop this Immediately. It does not and never has been anything but annoying. But yet it is used again and again even in Mega-Budget Action Movies. Listen Up from Outside the Bubble. It is not energetic or adrenaline inducing, it is Nauseating.This Movie suffers from much more than that. Mickey Rourke's Dialog seems Dubbed by a Line Reader with absolutely no Ability to do anything except Read Lines. The Intriguing Premise is totally Mishandled in what could have been an Exciting Genre Bending Movie.It is a Colorless Palette with nothing but Blacks and Bluish High Contrast. The whole Thing looks like a Video Game that Flopped. There is nothing here to Recommend and Fans of the Cult Favorite, Danny Trejo will check in only to find that this is nothing more than a commendable effort lost in a Wilderness of Woefulness.

To all the fans of this genre or the actors involved in the making of this film; I have this to say, "This one will hurt, and not in a funny way, don't do it to yourselves."Do yourself a favor and miss this film. It tarnishes the good memories we have of these actors with its lackluster existence. This films Tombstone should read;"Killed by the epic mediocrity of Director Roel Reiné."If you truly love watching Danny Trejo, no matter how bad the film he is in, or seeing Mickey Rourke deliver lines as if he was trying to understand a sign language interpreter; even if Anthony Michael Hall can do no wrong in your heart, this is not something you want to see. It seriously damaged my respect for just about everyone involved in making it come to life. I am a film editor, cinematographer and even worked as a Zombie stuntman. So, film, and especially cheesy low budget film is an area of expertise for me. I even have the honor of teaching a film class, "Aesthetics of Editing". So if you got this far, at least you know now I am not just some film bashing wingnut; some jerk with no idea how film is made, why it is good, bad or meh.

This wasn't just a run of the mill western...it was Faustian nightmare of the supernatural. The story wasn't anything special except the idea of justice through the devil's retribution gave it an old Twighlight Zone feel. While it didn't have the humor of Machete, Danny Trejo played it strictly for action in his quest for vengeance. Yes, you can knock the film for a rather thin story. But, its rather different play on an old theme went down well and kept the viewer interested. The acting was all you could expect for such a plot. Anthony Michael Hall was great as a bad guy who I could hardly recognize. In the end is accomplished the basic goal of any film, it was entertaining.
