I saw LEFT FOR DEAD at the recent Bloodbath festival in Bristol. Along with several other UK and Indie films, it's great to see that there are film makers in the Uk making the best out of very little.
With a small budget and humble DV roots, I wasn't expecting much but was pleasantly surprised by this film. It was packed with energy and whilst it was a little too long and a little too much in places I was very impressed by the overall feel and balls of this film.
Preceded by a very funny introduction by the filmmakers (pre-tapped) the film from the start never takes itself too seriously with lead characters Williams and Kelso fighting and killing more henchmen in one film than Chuck Norris managed in his entire career.
As I said, too long in places, and occasionally struggling to make the most out of it's meagre budget this film was actually very enjoyable, action packed and hopefully will be well received on it's upcoming UK release.
Not to everyone's taste but if you like Chan, Norris, Jean Claude and Segal films of the 80's and 90's then you'll most certainly get something out of this.
