The Death Factory Bloodletting

Well it is time. The time where I find an obscure film to talk about and it scars you; the reader to the very psyche and chills you to your bone marrow.   Or what commonly happens, you message the crap out of me asking where this stupid film is so you can have a drinking game theme night about this dumb flick.   Either way, something or someone is punished. This cinematic creation may very well be an abomination in the eyes God and humanity or it could be pleasantly terrifying.   So today's film is a sequel to a Brad Sykes film (Death Factory, Camp Blood, Camp Blood 2, Bloody Tease, Within the Woods and Mutation) that I reviewed in 2012. I guess we are due. This is Death Factory Bloodletting.

Oh yeah, he's stoned.

Wouldn't you know it, we got alternative titles such as: Necrophobic and Demons. So right off from the start, we have a found footage staple from one of the survivors Ana (Claudia Vargas of R.E.M., Yesterday's Tomorrow, Machined Reborn and R.E.M. 2) giving us details of what happened six months prior. Deep in the Carter Brick Factory (decommissioned in 2005) lurks an evil so sinister, it has to be kept from prying eyes of the public. Homelessness!!! GASP!

Well, we have about 5 folks down on their luck when we have a lad resembling Christ or Charles Manson minus swastika carved in his head, passing out sandwiches and being wholesome until he comes across a needle clearly not for insulin shots.   Denny (Noah Todd of Groom Lake, Ingenious, Trade In, The Prometheus Project, King's Man and Exit to Hell) then proceeds to smoke them like swiss cheese. So junkies dispatched and a baby abducted, our Christian soldier presses on. Hmm, not sure if you should carry the word of God through a frickin' 9mm! I could be wrong.

Don't worry for the little one. Alexa needs to feed. Yup it's significantly darker than Death Factory within the first 6 minutes. Yes mothers reading this, there wasn't any graphic business with the baby but it was clear Alexa was not snuggling him.   So, Alexa from the first movie has apparently survived from the exploits of the original film but has undergone a timelady regeneration and is not Tiffany Shepis but now Michelle Mousel of The Death Factory Bloodletting. Given Ms. Shepis is a mom these days, just might explain why she is not back for the sequel.  Moving on.

Um...dat ass?

We cut to the months later, in same elaborate factory with a girl in her panties, chained to the floor. Yeah I am not writing some sadomasochistic erotica, just giving you what is on the screen. Denny is watching her on this jury rigged series of screens and cameras. Pretty sure he is wanking in his control booth but that is just a theory mind you. The girl simply subtitled as "The Object" (Shareese Hegna of The Death Factory Bloodletting and Executioner) wakes up to an ear splitting sound and almost completely naked. Soooo, roofies and Yoko Uno?

Handcuffed to a chain, my head is screaming dislocate your thumb and free yourself but there I go thinking again. The further thought was how did she get abducted in the first place but again probably mixed drink mishap.  Guessing her occupation might be street walker but I shouldn't pass judgement. Shockingly enough, Alexa gets her pound of flesh and the girl is no more. Denny appears to be a radical Christian using Alexa as a weapon of righteous cruelty. Probably firebombs free clinics to stop the "baby killers" as well. A real charmer this guy.

Deviants run rampant in the world and they choose a time and place to gather to revel in their sadism. Back to Ana present day. As she is apparently cooking Oxi into dosages to shoot up. Um you can swallow those as well. In their pill form. Just a thought.

Neo Nazi and Black Militant. Keepin' it real.

Ana goes on about the weird violent deaths around town, bodies mutilated to levels that would make a seasoned cop violently projectile vomit. She is documenting in detail how in twelve hours she will be taken to a location to view a ritualistic killing known as a blood letting of a unknown girl simply referred as "The Object". Hey wait, that already happened. Wow you got screwed on your viewing. Seeing this is word of mouth, it is a better than good chance you cannot see this on Pay-Per-View so I guess attendance is mandatory.  That also throws DVR out the window too.  Independent investigation has lead Ana to a dark website known only as The Gore House. The IP address cannot be accessed so she can't forward anything to the cops I guess. Pretty sure the FBI would be looking into this if you give them the research material.  She uses this false identity, Massive 9 as means to find the man who killed her daughter.   Her only lead is a man known as Rubber Love.

After a near creeper interaction and payment she is whisked away to an unknown location. A gathering of perverts and fruit loops attending the event are all duct taped and zip tied awaiting our hostmaster and each of these individuals are going by an anonymity for the prestigious affair.

So we have a Neo Nazi White Manson with rape fetish, underground fights and snuff films, a dom Gretel and her sub Hansel diddle in places humans have died, a sex pervert that looks like he works in a cubicle Rubber Love, a pedophile, a nerdy guy/bomb nut calling himself Cockmaster,  a tough black kid , Black Johnson from the streets that does white slave trading, Ana and a dingy blond fantasy fetish girl. Mouseketeers sign off! 

 Did I mention Rotten Reelz Reviews does not hand out barf buckets? They're $29.99 plus shipping and handling. Yeah 5 minutes of exposition pretty much leads me to believe they are pretty much scum.

Twist! The only blood these sickos will be enjoying caking against the walls will be their own.

As the zoo crew sits in for the evening's festivities, they realize the warehouse is sealed, the walls have cameras, there is a crew with guns and there is no viable way out.

On a personal note, I did not think a sequel could be made from Death Factory and this certainly is not what I would have expected as a follow-up to a slasher character made by bad science. With the exception of Ana, you really kind of want to see Alexa kill and gut these folk.

That being said, it is nowhere near as violent, graphic or even disturbing visually. This is more or less a psychological thriller delving into the inner most perversion that the mind and body can conjure without showing it in graphic detail. Kind of clever pitching monsters as your victims and really the only one you want to escape is Ana with her Rubber Love prize in the hopes she blows his damn head off and avenges her late daughter.

Writer Mike Marsh (Death of a Ghost Hunter, The Death Factory Bloodletting and The Great American Snuff Film) and writer/director Sean Tretta (Devil's Night, 12 Monkeys Death of a Ghost Hunter and Mayan M.C.) create a hellish tale of a gathering of evil being wiped out by something equally or greater in its malicious nature. About the immoral and wicked being systematically snuffed out for their atrocious behavior towards their fellow humanity. To know once and for all what it is to be a victim. It is nefarious, dark and clever.

Rather than the antihero vigilante wiping them out with guns, adamantium claws or a penance stare and hellfire, we have a victim made killer due to her nature being completely altered. Not sure it is for everyone as I pointed out earlier, but it definitely raised the bar in some decent gore effects, great simple location and just putting on of the thinking cap for ideas of terror.

Can't say I know anyone this would appeal to, offhand but it's out there for someone's viewing pleasure.

O.M.G. Soooo bored!
