      Stephen A A Blood-Soaked Family Fiesta – Thin Characters, Thick Carnage! In the sizzling cauldron of gore-fueled escapades, "Death Ranch" emerges as a blood-soaked tale that's part gore-fest, part revenge fantasy and a smidgen of a dysfunctional family reunion. It's comparatively like a picnic with a tornado forecast-messy, unpredictable, but strangely alluring. Picture this: a runaway convict and his kin find refuge in their dear ol' grandpa's rundown barn. But lo-and-behold, their sanctuary becomes ground zero for a KKK killing spree. Surprise, surprise! The Klan's got the unfortunate family in their crosshairs faster than you can sarcastically say "bed sheet & pillowcase." Cue the brutal torture, molestation, and all that grim jazz. Before you label this a dissertation on character depth, let's acknowledge the obvious: The characters here are thinner than the paper-thin crust on a pizza. It wouldn't have hurt to add some meat to their bones, metaphorically speaking. However, the absence of robust character development might be a tactical move to focus on the visceral rollercoaster ahead. Praise goes to the director for engaging in peekaboo tactics with the gruesome bits. Instead of shoving the torture scenes in our faces, they opted for a "less is more" approach. The true horror is our imagination conjures far more ghastly images than any CGI could muster. Sure, the pacing's as wonky as a marathon runner unsure of the finish line's precise location. And that slow-mo during certain scenes is more hindrance than enhancement, particularly when it's unwittingly used during uncomfortable moments. But ah, the saving grace-the soundtrack: In a world where low-budget flicks often sound like a cat strumming a battered guitar, "Death Ranch" surprises. It's a symphony of pleasant sorts, harmonizing chaos and tension seamlessly. Now, the cast, bless their kind hearts, realistically is a mixed bag. Thankfully, the director decently bids farewell to the weaker links early on. Survival of the fittest, or maybe the most entertaining? In conclusion, "Death Ranch" is akin to that spicy taco you gobble down despite knowing it'll scorch your taste buds. It's a one-time thrill ride, especially if gore is your cup of cha. This flick's self-awareness is its unique charm-it never truly takes itself seriously, endowing you with a macabre grin and maybe, just maybe, contemplating a replay when the prevailing mood for blood-soaked antics strikes again. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 11/28/23 Full Review Alex C I loved this, if you love gore/revenge movies you will love it also, acting was very good and very good pacing. 5 stars!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Death Ranch is such an uncomfortable film to watch but it should be. With its subject matter of course we don't plan to sit down with a bucket of popcorn and watch three African Americans being hunted down by a gang of white supremacists, however by the time the film gets into full throttle , you will be reaching for the popcorn as the tables are quickly turned on the KKK and our three heroes give the supremacists a taste of their own medicine (and their own body parts in some cases) Death Ranch is the following, tough to watch, visually brutal, gory, very gory, thought provoking, but is a classic throw to the era of Grindhouse movies of the 70s and even though its a tough subject for a film to tackle, its also a lot of fun seeing the supremacists get what they rightly deserve. Great film from writer director Charlie Steeds and the performances by Deiondre Teagle (Brandon) , Faith Monique ( Angela) and Travis Cutner (Clarence) are top notch. Wonderfully energetic performances. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
