Dead Time




IMdb
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
A band are ordered by their unhappy record company to an old post office, the goal being to re-start their ailing careers with a new promo video.

Unfortunately the band and their entourage find themselves targets of a mysterious knife-wielding maniac, haunted by the voice of Satan, and for some reason out for revenge....

Within the first two minutes of the band arriving at the warehouse, it's evident who the killer is. He may as well have wore a T Shirt saying it's me, rather than use the awful theatrics he does throughout the movie.

There are a couple of plus points in this dog of a film, Terry Christian and Leslie Grantham pop up in the first five minutes in silly cameos, which are both really archetypal of their personalities, but a little fun.

Then the film goes plummeting downhill.

The acting is dire, none of the characters are likable, and the fact that the main guy Zack is a little eccentric, gives the game away a little.

The actor who plays him is trying to be like Russell Brand, but really misses the mark and turns out more like Joe Longthorne.

and to top it all off, there is the most ridiculous scene featuring the drummers uncle giving him some advice, thretening him, calling him a good lad, and going away. There was no reason for this at all, and just felt really out of place.

The rest of the borefest, is the killer dressed as Scarecrow, kiliing people with really poor CGI.

It's most definitely the worst film I have seen this year, and in my all time top twenty bad movies.

Dead Time (2012)

Members of a band from Birmingham go to an old warehouse to film a new video, but a knife-wielding madman stalks them there.
