Charles Band & his factory of monsters. The black dungeon lit up a shimmering light. A defibrillator connected to the statue of a stone gargoyle gave a roar, the heart of the owner of the grotesque Hell beat again. Lying in the middle of his crypt, he drew the nostrils of the green air of the set. A happy murmur swept through the corners, these puppet creatures sitting in the dark, revived, preparing for new, black rituals. Taking their leader in their arms, they moved to a sharp throne, next to him stood a figure. Torn camsol, long fingers with twisted claws, tangled hair, pale skin as if never came into contact with sunlight. Radu Vladislas dutifully gave way to the first arrival. The throne of the country Full Moon, like the bloody stone, could own only one. Charles Band grinned as he glanced at his subjects. You could start shooting.
There was no limit to joy, the studio Full moon announced a new part of my favorite subspecies, Ted Nikolau is still in the director's chair. A new portion of grotesque from Radu Vladislas?! We are not in a hurry to rejoice. It's not as simple as it seems. The corpse of an ancient demon is buried in the belly of Charlie Band's greed. The introductory credits delight with the breath of a graphic novel, where unknown creatures from the universe of full moon escape from a crowd of bloodsuckers. Further, we are waiting, also the concept as in Puppet master: Legacy, cutting from the previous parts of the franchise, including “The Vampire Diaries”, with a plot thread in the form of graphic inserts, since hiring actors is more expensive at times. And an artist can be hired from a fan base, it exists and does not disappear with time. Seriously, you're just watching cut-outs from past movies. Arrogance is second happiness and schizophrenia is third. What did Band want to prove by 'screening' this? Perhaps an urgent need for finance, the arrival of a deity, or drug intoxication. Maybe he just wanted to please the fans. On the fans and rests the modest capital of the studio and the welfare of the population of the country Full moon, and Charlie Band in general. Andres Hove is alive and well, but something suggests that Hove's involvement was very financially unprofitable. And if there was such an opportunity, then the appearance of Radu would take place in the cameo format. Like Angus Screeme in the original movie. Anyway, Charles Band stubbornly continues to turn the studio into a hotbed of his own hypocrisy, and the once successful conveyor b-movie gradually becomes a forge of consumer goods, and hopeless projects.
The band is a greedy businessman who has long hammered on principles and honesty. Charles shoots on the principle of "so it was", not paying much attention to detail. Many years later I decided to do the same thing with dolls many years ago.
And funny and sad. It seems that there are all the makings, but you can see that the process of filming has long been Band in parallel, and now he is interested only in money and nothing more.
