I was really hoping this movie would be freaking awesome! It was still pretty good, bloody, gory, and even a little bit psychedelic. The action scenes were a little tepid though.
An incredible concept brought to life by excellent actors and deliciously gory effects, but hamstrung by a weak script. We're introduced to quite a few characters and their motivations are either murky or lost in translation. I felt confused and a bit burnt out by the end.
Skull has some fantastic practical effects and big-guy choreography to show off but felt rather flat storywise to me. I'm aware of it's limited budget and don't expect a masterpiece but either flesh that out or go crazier ;).
I really wanted to like this. Was expecting something like Psycho Goreman without the comedy. I appreciate some cool ideas in here but it doesn't know how to put them into a narrative. It looks beautiful and has decent practical effects but as a whole I'm not enjoying it at all. It often jumps all over the place and also features one of the lamest investigation I've ever witness. I barely know anything about the characters. The detective was being asshole for no reason. It just feels empty and there's no tension . The sound doesn't do anything much to support the film. I'm disappointed.
Lousy movie exaggeration of blood and bad .. nothing to save from the movie.
