100 Bloody Acres

Just what I expected
Worth watching. Very gory, but fairly funny in parts. I wouldn't pay for it in a theater, but it is a decent rental.

WE'RE NOT BAD PEOPLE
Sophie (Anna McGahan) along with her BF (Oliver Ackland) and Wesley (Jamie Kristian) a male rival are headed via the back roads to a music festival when their automobile breaks down. They get a ride from Reg Morgan (Damon Herriman) who is driving the company truck of Morgan Brother's "Blood and Bone" organic fertilizer. Not too hard to figure the rest out.

The film has some blood splatter scenes, but lacks the gore. This slasher film is in part dark comedy as Reg, is the younger partner brother who is insecure in what he does as well as being sexually repressed.

The film is a good concept, but comes off as going through the motions. Okay as a rental.

Parental Guide: F-bomb, no sex or nudity. One scene of apparent self gratification.

When they cross paths with three kids on their way to get drugged up at a music festival, it becomes a struggle to see who will survive and if the Morgan brothers will be able to make a big shipment of "new blend" to one of their biggest clients.

It is funny in parts, but so much of the humor is mixed in with the character development that it gets a little tedious, especially when the film starts to spiral out of control and the script starts asking the audience to actually sympathize with any of the characters. Not a single one of them is likable, though. The three teens are composed of a girl who cheats on her incredibly whiny boyfriend with...
