Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
imagesmdr This is simply a beautiful film to watch. The characters are all believable and the story is true love equates redemption. David Carradine is spectacular and I left the film wanting more of him. The 2 leads, unknowns, will not remain unknown for long. The chemistry between the two was palpable. Caroyn Neff,lovely and petulant at times works her favor upon Rusty Joiner and I actually wondered if these two were an item. There is a "montgomery Cliff" type of sadness that Joiner brings to the genre and I actually felt as though I needed to embrace him...He is easy on the eyes in a Brad Pitt way, as well. Ulli Lommel's cameo sets the record straight that the man still has it. I'd love to see him star in a film. There is a screen presence that is stellar. He plays an aging hit-man with conviction and just a hint of tongue in cheek attitude. I will certainly buy this film when released, but I am hoping to see it again on the big screen here in the U.S. Anyone who his loved and lost cannot help but identify with this film.
rickvanCleef Each time new discoveries. Carradine giving A+ performance. Camera work superb. What was this shot on? I heard they used the new RED??? Anyway, great colors, very cool performances by Chris Kriesa and Ulli Lommel as Beauregard and Rick. Carolyn Neff a treat as Savanna, Rusty Joiner (is he the guy who shows off his body in all these men's mags???). Script shines with twists and turns. Only problem I have: The length. It could've gone on for two more hours. Maybe they should turn this plot into a TV-series. Call it "17th Street" or something. I'd sure watch it. Could be as entertaining and different as "Twin Peaks". "Absolute Evil" reminds me of a mixture out of a David Lynch flick and Tarentino. I didn't care much for Lommel's other horror flicks, but this one? Man, what a departure!!! Has anyone seen his 80s films like "Boogeyman" and "brainwaves"? Or "Devonsville Terror"? Check it out, man. Cool stuff. Now as to his recent Lionsgate stuff, I could've done without that. Neither "Son of Sam" nor "Borderline Cult" did it for me.
tonipain After being caged in a Lionsgate Serial Killer Contract for more than two Years exiled German Indie Cult Director Ulli Lommel is back at his best. At the Berlin film festival he premiered and succeeded with the audience, but , as I experienced at a press screening, led also into a real controversy..Love is not colder than death,, because Death is not cool anymore. Sure Lommels new Flic is a hell of a genre mix of film noir, road movie and western with a lot of violence and torture, sure it's still a Lommel with its unique style somewhere between indie and big screen movie, but he's changing the subject. of a modern thriller. Before there were innocents who became bad, or villains, who couldn't cope with their past. But for the very first time, without playing on one's heart strings. Love and Forgiveness are presented as a solution in this deeply violent story . Maybe this alienates, because viewing habits are going to be mixed up, but you can't cheer Obama and enjoy ego shooters at the same time. Lommels Absolute Evil is more a vision for the next 40 years than a reminiscence to Love is colder than death from 1969. And to all you critics who won't understand now: You buried Fassbinder in a Museum , but you're afraid of Lommel, because he is alive!
Steamroller_Blues Absolute Evil is Carradine's best film since Kill Bill. And that is strange, because Absolute Evil is very much along the lines of Tarentino's narrative. The good becomes the bad and the bad turns good. Evil is a complex force in this fascinating twist of film noir and horror film and suspense thriller. The film itself is a love declaration to the horror genre, and pumps new life in it. And Ulli Lommel, who also wrote and directed, is terrific as the Private Eye that tortures a killer. The film is short and sweet. 80 minutes of inspired suspense, and a total departure from Lommel's previous low-budget true-crime horror flicks.
