He Never Died (2015)

This is absolutely wonderful movie. Naturalistic, no superhero pop-culture (although he is one). I completely loved everyone's acting. Dialogs are just perfect. Funny and brutally sarcastic. Maybe holywHoll should start picking up people right from the street for acting main roles, just like Kusturitsa did in his "Black cat, White cat".I won't say much more. Go watch it on Netflix. You won't regret.

This could've been a fun sarcastic little short.Instead it's a pretty long and not particulary interesting movie. Humor is hits and misses, sometimes it almost works. I guess it works better if you are a fan of Supernatural-like shows.While watching I came up with lots of interesting ideas about the mystery behind the main character. But it turned out to be absolutely random and not connected to anything. You can replace his background story with any random background story because there isn't really any connection, just a set of random scenes edited by a guy with ADHD (all dialogue is edited with like 1,5 sec cuts).Random scenes happen, some more random scenes happen, we are shown that he cannot die. I guess with a title like this you are expected to be surprised. Then comes the random reveal and the movie just ends. Nothing really happened so I can't even discuss anything in detail. You can't spoil this movie either.I love trash movies, but this isn't even good trash. I was surprised to see such high ratings, I guess this has a cult following, but I really can't figure out why.

Late at night, looking for something to watch and came across this because I like Henry Rollins. 10 minutes into the movie and I am wondering if this is the worst movie ever. Then as it continues, I realize that this is not a bad movie, this is a movie made exactly like it was intended. A little bit campy, defiantly different, dry humor, and wonderful. If you prepare yourself before watching it, I think it could earn 10/10. This movie was a hidden gem that I thoroughly enjoyed once I realized the directors vision. If you are wanting a JJ Abrams light show, this is not for you. If you want a brilliant movie with perfect amounts of quirkiness and even a few one-liners (a vagina is a coupon for alcohol), then this is the movie for you.

A middle-aged man lives a lonely life. And it is pretty much the most boring one possible. Every day he goes to a diner where he orders a vegetarian meal using as few words as possible. He watches a lot of television and sleeps a lot. Once or twice a week he might go and play bingo in the local church but only using two cards because he doesn't want to keep track of more. But, his dreams are riddled with screams and moans of agony, his past life still haunting him, and every now and then he buys a mysterious package from a hospital intern. Our story starts as he meets an unexpected figure connected with his past, just as a few tough guys come knocking on his door wanting to know the whereabouts of his most recent dealer slash package deliverer.It's also possible that I'm going to say too much during this review. It really is a film worth seeing knowing as little as possible. Trust me when I say it's good and go see it. Because it is one of the most intense and brutal films I've seen in recent years. The story behind this lone man unfolds slowly, and it's not at all what you'd expect. It's pretty hard to define what this film is. It's a genre film, but not in a way that's going to bother anyone. It's a crime film, but not in the usual sense. It's even comedic, mostly due to Henry Rollins' deadpan delivery in the midst of all the brutality. It's themes are sin, the burden of the past, even family obligations in a certain sense. It's biblical. Perhaps even vampiric, but only on a thematic level.Henry Rollin' performance keeps it all together. Some would probably say that the film is so over the top that it's comedy, but I don't really get that from this film. It has good laughs in it, but the humour is rather dark and comes from Rollins' unflappable demeanour. The film is filled with brutal imagery, but it is not too gory for most viewers. It doesn't feast on the gore, like some slasher films.All in all, definitely a film that surprised me with its quality.
