For the Sake of Vicious

-------------------------------------------------------------------

In case you haven’t seen the intro from my entry dated 1/26/19 (it’s in my archives whenever you want to read it), I’m no longer going to review every single movie I see.  I’m going to review one, with the occasional bonus, and just give ratings for the rest from now on (unless I decide to pick it up again in the future).  You can always ask me why I gave the ratings for the films without reviews though (via comments or the e-mail addresses under the ‘About Me’ section).

For the Sake of Vicious                                               OK/G

This began as one type of movie that I really didn’t have too much hope for, it involving a man kidnapping and holding another man hostage in a woman’s house.  He believes the kidnapped man is responsible for raping his daughter and demands a confession from him.  They are all the least of each other’s problems as it eventually becomes a much more manic film; bloody too.  Oh yes, there is violence.  This is probably the craziest home invasion film I’ve seen in a long while, if not ever (part of the title is correct in that it can be vicious!).  It doesn’t really entail much at all, but I had fun with it once the ball got rolling after the uninspired beginning.  I’m probably going to have to watch it again.  No, I should say I want to watch it again.  It is barely 80-minutes after all.  1/9/2022
