Bright happy smiles..but not for long!

A rather interesting British film about a group of party-going young Brit girls in Majorca who meet up with a group of equally young guys and go off on a private yacht for some fun.

Lots of drugs and graphic sex takes place until something goes horribly wrong..then Donkey Punch turns into something of a slasher flick with one tense moment after another.

Some very impressive performances by the young cast, in particular Ray Winstone’s daughter Jaime of kidulthood fame for whom this would have been a very early role.

Yes he does look pissed off!

If you like westerns with a bit of horror thrown in you’ll like Dead in Tombstone. Mickey Rouke plays a very rotund Devil collecting souls of dead outlaws as they descend to hell, the rest of the cast are fairly inconsequential except for Danny Trejo who gives a reasonable performance.

Essentially a bank robbing gang turn on one of their own and kill him. He makes a deal with the devil and returns to try and kill them all in revenge in one day in exchange for his own soul.

Lots of the usual sort of gunfights ensue and blood and guts fly through the air. The film reminded me somewhat of the 1999 film Purgatory without it quite being as good.

Abducted is a very strange film that looks to have been made on a fairly restrictive budget. The plot sort of goes: young couples are being abducted from a particular park and find themselves in dark cells with strange medical experiments being performed on them.

As if this is not bad enough the plot unravels into implications for the very planet earth itself…no not some sex-crazed psychopath collecting them as you might think!

Not exactly the best movie ever made, but then not the worst either.
