A couple of questions about House of the Dead.
What's so bad about matrix shots? and what is really crappy or stupid about inserting game clips into the movie?
|
I know this is just a technicality, but technically, those are not really Matrix shots in House of the Dead. It's just high-speed photography with the camera on a spinning rig. The Matrix's time-stretching effects were done with many cameras triggered in sequence.
House of the Dead is a movie I am really pleased to own, because it's one of the silliest things I've seen in years. Not a good movie, but pretty damn amusing IMO! |
those inserts were done so 'ham-fistedly' it was an intrusion .. we didnt need to be reminded it was the video game .. we already hade boring extended stupid fight sequences ..
its the only movie i can recall where stupid teenage ravers instantly became world class kick box champions. i know its a dumb fantasy film based on a plotless vidogame .. but jesus .... |

look who's back
Uwe Boll does take the razzies when it comes to his movie adaptations. Inserting sequences from the game itself, together with editing and inserting "matrix-like"(its an insult to the wachowski bros to even refer to the series) photography in the middle of a gunfight...he makes House of the Dead feel like Archie in Terror Island or somethin...
Check out Alone in the Dark. Another real boring offering from the guy. God knows who gave him inspiration to make BloodRayne. Whats next, Uwe? Half-Life? btw...I m baccccccccckkkkkkkk.... |

It would have been great if they would have set HOTD in the seventies....you know, professional teenage kickboxing partiers kicking bell bottomed butt to The Hustle or maybe Night Fever instead of techno....
