Love Theme from Catacombs

The worst movie I have seen this week - and it's Friday already!

Running running running, screaming screaming screaming, running running running, screaming screaming screaming. "Leave me alone!" "Can anybody hear me?" "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarghhhhh!" These are the golden lines you'll never forget after surviving that film. Stupid plot, stupid actors, lots of loud noise. Larsvontrierish camera work. Pink.

At first I thought that the Hollywood actors seem to think that Paris is somewhere in Russia - everything that was supposed to sound like French (including French), had a weird Russian accent. Only later did I realize that most of the actors were Romanians. Which is strange, because Romanian is not a Slavonic language.

The over-the-top grand finale is both hilarious, stupid and mildly fascinating. But it doesn't really change my attitude towards the flick. The whole thing looks like a dragged out version of a Tales From The Crypt episode - about 60 minutes too long. Plus, you can't really enjoy a film that doesn't have a single character in it who you can even occasionally feel sorry for.
