Jeanskynebu the audience applauded
WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
PodBill Just what I expected
Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Leofwine_draca BLOODLETTING is a very cheap and uneventful indie horror flick from 1997. That means it was shot on video and feels very dated, more so than Hollywood fare from the same era. The plot is about a maladjusted young woman who tracks down a notorious serial killer and becomes his apprentice, but don't go in expecting lots of gore and frightening incident; this cheapie is all about the chit chat and little else. The film tries for quickfire dialogue a la Quentin Tarantino but the writer isn't adept enough to carry it off and although the acting isn't the worst, it's not enough to make this remotely good.
trashgang blah blah blah. Already boring but hey, the opening credits contains some really nice moments. It's better then the movie. A lot of talking, stupid conversations. An unbelievable serial killer. Again some talking, boredom arises. Some stabbing.Nothing happens except....talking Almost over, one nice scene, the guy loosing his mascularity. And then again a lot of talking. Ahaaa, the end of the movie, you wouldn't believe it, stabbing while they are...talking.End credits Don't waist your time on this turkey, a waist of time and money. Better watch "man bites dog" a Belgian movie
lastliberal "I don't trust anybody who doesn't smoke." Is that the first requirement for becoming a serial killer? If so, I am on my way. Truly, watching Ariauna Albright learn from Butch (James L. Edwards) was very interesting, and a bit funny.When they went into action as a priest and nun, I almost lost it. How funny! When Ariauna turned the tables on the psycho chemist, it was poetry.But, the best comes at the end. It's to die for!Quality? Sorry. the story and the lines, are much better than the acting, but it was still interesting enough. Now, you've seen it, what do you want, a serial killer diploma?
Amanda Hastings The problem with so many zero budget films is that they really spend too much time on talking. Too talky equals dull. Scenes of talking heads that go on forever pretty much ruin many low budget efforts. this one is no exception. It feels like the author thinks he has something important to say so he makes sure every member of the cast says it. For an hour and a half. Talk and talk and then kill a person and talk while doing it and then talk some more. The film wants to be edgy. A nd shocking. And it may have worked, if I had not been talked to sleep. The ultimate sin for any movie is to bore an audience. This one has a budget against it. Uneven acting. Bad lighting. But to bore me, now THAT is the final straw. I love low budget films. I like zero budget films like films by Todd Sheets, Mark Polonia, JR Bookwalter and more. But this one is not able to sustain tension, suspense or interest. The direction is flat and takes no chances and the ideas behind the film deserve more. Watch natural Born Killers again instead.
