Crowbar (2010)
3/10
I HAVE NO NEPHEW
11 December 2018
Warning: Spoilers
Wendall (Kevin Phillips/ Kevin George) witnesses the killings of both his parents on the eve of their leaving town. The killer used a crowbar and wore a welder's mask. A decade later Alex (Michael Ray Clark) and Ronnie (Natasha Timpani) move into said house and the killings start all over again. The town and neighbors are overly apathetic to the situation.

The opening credits was tough to sit through with an annoying sound track. The photo of the dead/barren tree makes it way from the opening credit to throughout the film. Most likely a symbol of the barren Aunt who is introduced late. The film had a couple of good characters, neighbor Nancy (Elizabeth Schrey) being one of them.

Overall the plot was one we have seen too many times. They tried too hard to create good support characters, they failed to create decent main characters. The killer is apparently dragging around a smoke machine as they over did that effect.

Written and directed by Scott Phillips who was a Russian soldier extra in the original "Red Dawn."
