I can't believe there is no review about that awesome Gangster flick.

To me Darren WARD has made one hell of a movie : the English answer to FULCI 's classic CONTRABAND.

As you can read on the Amazon's description, the plot could hardly be simpler. Basicaly it's all about betrayal, revenge and Gangsters shooting each other. The acting, exept for David Warbeck, Nick Rendell and a few others, is quite weak but OK. It also is seems to be shot on a cheap camcorder ( wich is allright to me ) but nothing, and I mean NOTHING, could keep SUDDEN FURY from being succesful.

First of all, it is VERY GORY. The shoot outs are the best I've ever ever seen in a such a low budget movie. You see people's body parts explode when bullets hit them and bloodstains all over the place. I think the production has spent most of their money on squibs and it shows. The body count is extremely high and the deaths always enjoyable to watch. Oh yeah... You also got graphic torture. On top of that it is well shot.

The bottom line is : if you're sick of fancy, classic Gangster stuff where it's all clean and only Joe PESCI is insane. if you love HK ACTION, Italian CRIME, GORE and Movies with Guts And Guns in general and don't mind the low budget. JUST BUY SUDDEN FURY, you'll thank me later."
