Death Factory (2002)
- written January 2003
|
A bio-weapons factory in the middle of an urban city has a bit of an accident which causes one woman to mutate badly enough she feels the need to slaughter all her co-workers. 15 years later a few young adults looking for sex and alcohol end up in said factory and look to party and not get killed by the factory worker, still alive and killing.
Overall: Very low budget film that fails due to one major fact: the killer didn’t look mutated. The killer, a girl named Alexa, look exactly like the female heroine in “Return of the Living Dead 3” - Alexa essentially took piercing to a whole new level but there is nothing mutating or creature-ish about her. The whole vampirism of the character is silly too - I meant her outfit is so scant on the girl and they never use that to her advantage. She wears this basically ripped up tank top but it always manages to covers just enough to know she’s not wearing anything else. The killer is so one- dimensional, it’s never interesting after the first death. The appearance of Ron Jeremy is so silly it clearly was only to grab extra viewers not to advance the plot. Jeremy plays this bum and yet his entire outfit looked like it was purchased at “The Men’s Wearhouse” the day before. What sort of a bum has a very nice gray trench coat, nice pants and is clean shaven? (out of “Down & Out in Beverly Hills”) What then blew my mind is that the kids go into the factory at 6pm (sun is still out). They run around and die 1 by 1 and then when one escapes, it’s still light out. Unless this was the 24 hour days of Alaska, it’s a flaw that is too low budget to accept.
