Watch Chop For Free

Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Expected more

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

The title makes one believe this is simply a gross slasher film. In the first few minutes you are sucked in with the dark humor and quirky characters making this more of a cerebral mind fest...with a little bit of axe murdering.My first question is, "Was that a 4 door racing Volvo with a rear tail fin?" Did they ever make such a vehicle?Will Keenan stars as Lance, our pathetic "victim" who is hounded and forced to do things. Tanisha Mukherjee plays his wife. Camille Keaton (gang raped in the original "I Spit on Your Grave") plays Mrs. Keenan. "B" actor Timothy Muskatell does an excellent job as the bizarre tormentor of Lance.This is an excellent dark comedy horror film with decent soundtrack, great script, good quirky characters, and a touch of dismemberment.F-bomb, explicit sex talk, oral sex, no nudity

My opinion on this movie is blunt. The plot didn't seem confusing. The movie was easy to follow overall. My confusion was what genre they were going for. Was the movie suppose to be a comedy, or a thriller?There were parts throughout the movie where the acting seemed different than mainstream movies. The main actors "smart-ass" attitude brought on the whole comedy feel. Yet at the same time the whole held captive being tortured thing could pass as a stretch from the Saw films.The scenes where he started losing body parts was great. His reaction was hilarious. His DAMNIT! I fell asleep again mood was great. Various points like the main character bringing up past mistakes. Great Stuff. I would recommend this movie to anyone looking for a good laugh. At the same time the unique format for their plot and script all together was very... interesting.

You know by now this isn't going to change your life or how you define film, so let me tell you what it can do for you. A perfectly decent latenight comedy horror viewing, made proportionately better by how much beer at hand.The guy behind this grinded his teeth working at Troma, so he knows film as Lloyd Kaufman taught it; make your own damn movie, doesn't matter how cheap or choppy so long as the game is agile, self-aware and one step ahead of you dear viewer. This is done on the cheap but is all the rest. The setup here is that our likable guy is being quite literally chopped away until he can remember how he affected others. Turns out he was a pain in the ass junkie before he cleaned his act. Strangers are brought in to take a piece. Our half-mad psycho keeps taunting for an answer.There is some gore and some tension involved that is probably being spoofed from Hostel - our guy looks a little like Roth anyway - but this is pitch black comedy first and foremost, like Trome used to do it minus too much explicitness. So throw some weirdness on screen that you know is going to attract a crowd, then be a good host and make everybody have a good time. This one does, up to the halfway point at least.The downside: it's a great premise, our guy wakes up and fingers are missing. It hinges a lot of its power on us feeling genuinely sorry for the plight of our awkward protagonist. But that's the whole thing and it's not taken further. While enjoyable and riproaring for a while, it gets tedious in the latter stages.The Pegg/Wright team could have done this with more acerbic wit, a young Sam Raimi with some cinematic verve. It would have been a classic in both cases.

Lance Reed (Will Keenan) is happily married and life is good. While traveling, his car breaks down and Lance accepts a ride from a helpful stranger. (Timothy Muskatel) The stranger then proceeds to jokingly ask him who would he save in a hypothetical situation, his wife or brother.Then, not so jokingly, he shoots Lance with a tranquilizer gun. He's rather annoyed at Lance, you see. Reason being, Lance did something on him years ago, that caused him to suffer. Now he's gonna make Lance suffer. Problem is, Lance can't remember who this guy is, and feels he doesn't know him from Adam. This enrages the stranger even more. Now he's gonna make Lance suffer even more. Bit by bit, and piece by piece, he will totally destroy every aspect of Lance's life, and the lives of those he cares about...This sounds pretty grim from the premise, but Chop is actually one of the funniest horror comedies I've seen in ages. Trent Haaga, who cut his teeth with Troma, (and who also wrote the rather impressive Deadgirl) has created a dark but hilarious horror flick that pokes fun at torture themed horrors very effectively.With great performances from both Keenan and Muskatel, as well as some belly laugh scenes and dialogue, not to mention some decent gore FX, it's a treat for any horror fan, particularly fans of torture themed horrors. This film really shouldn't work with such a premise, but it honestly does, and it went down a real treat with the crowd at the Dead By Dawn 2011 festival, where I caught it.9/10 it's an excellent and very funny little horror and highly recommended. And all you exploitation fans out there... see if you can spot a cameo from Camille "I Spit On Your Grave" Keaton.
