Watch Rage For Free

hyped garbage

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

The acting in this movie is really good.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Writer Dennis Twist (Rick Crawford) drives into town to end his extra-marital affair with lover Dana, but winds up invoking the wrath of a mysterious motorcyclist on the way. En route home, Dennis finds himself terrorised by the leather-clad, black-helmeted biker, who will stop at nothing to satisfy his rage.Low budget horror/thriller Rage borrows so heavily from Steven Spielberg's Duel that its writer/director Chris Witherspoon feels obliged to acknowledge the fact with a scene where two incidental characters discuss the 1971 movie at length. In doing so, his film becomes an homage (which sounds so much better than rip-off, don'tcha think?). As if nicking the plot wasn't enough, Witherspoon also names his central character Dennis—presumably after Dennis Weaver, who played the lead in Spielberg's movie—and gives his film a similarly snappy four letter title.For his final act, Witherspoon turns to the slasher genre for inspiration, his motorbiking psycho becoming a seemingly indestructible bogeyman à la Michael Myers, not just targeting Dennis, but also his poor wife Crystal (who, in one particularly brutal scene, is beaten up and raped), and an elderly couple who live across the street who meet a gruesome fate via the business end of a chainsaw.However, despite the flagrant cribbing and a general lack of originality regarding the plot, Rage didn't have me flying into one. Witherspoon's film is actually a reasonably well crafted thriller, one that certainly belies its budgetary limitations, delivering some decent thrills and spills, cool characterisation (Dennis is such a slime-bag), and a smattering of gnarly violence. I doubt very much if it will launch Witherspoon as the next Spielberg, but as 'homages' go, I've seen plenty worse.

"SPIELBERG'S DUEL MEETS HALLOWEEN" - screen spotlight"SENSATIONAL HORROR FILM-MAKING AT ITS FINEST!" - horror unlimited.comSounds good doesn't it?First off, it don't come close to Duel or Halloween. Secondly, I switched it off after 29 minutes.The lead actor is OK. Most of the other actors appear to be friends of friends. The audio has a quality epic feel, but feels really misplaced. Blame it on the director, camera- man, editor, there's something amiss with it. It feels like it was made by someone who probably spent some time in film school. An intermediate.Edit: I did bother to see it through to the end. It took some effort to do so, and no, the film does not improve.

This movie has an interesting premise which made me want to watch it. Unfortunately, the budget, story, acting and skills involved in it's making fell short.Rage reminds me of a mix between The Room and Birdemic in it's execution.The Acting is bland and at times annoying, with a few exceptions. The main protagonist is an unlikable character, with no redeeming qualities. I found myself rooting for the antagonist throughout, with the exception of the protagonist's wife, who seems likely to be the only one in the movie with anything between her ears. Worth a watch if you are inclined to liking bad movies, and/or want a movie to make fun of and laugh at, while picking it apart.

Chris Witherspoon, you are one sick mother, I love this stuff. This is not a high budget movie by any means but wow I really could not stop watching. It is like my tittle says a non stop edge of the seat movie the imagination of the writer is way out there and I hope he has more of this stuff to come in the future. One of my employees and a good friend is of work right now with a broken arm because of road rage he was attacked with an aluminium snow brush and used his arm to block a blow. This is real life road rage to the extreme. I really enjoyed this in a strange way I don't want to sound like a saddest but if you like gruesome in a stretch of a real life scenario you have to watch this movie.
