American Weapon (2014) Reviews

• This is one to miss out on... trust me...

  "American Weapon" was just fundamentally boring and a waste of time. I will say that the movie started out slow, then took a turn towards resembling something from the late 1980's - the golden age of slasher movies. But then it just turn stale, bad and awful very, very bad. A group of young people are spending time in a cabin, when a deranged killer - a former soldier in the American army - starts to kill them. Yep, that was it. That was essentially the entire movie summarized in a single sentence. Do not get your hopes up for anything in particular here, because there were really nothing to makes it worthwhile to sit through this movie. There was nothing scary or even remotely worth mentioning in the movie. The death scenes and methods of killing were boring, half-hearted and something of a painful experience to witness. And the killer himself, well, he is nowhere near becoming as menacing as iconic characters such as Jason, Freddy or Michael. A middle-aged man running around in military camouflaged outfit, bearing a grudge because he was sort of abused in the American army, just doesn't hold up a stick to anyone in the slasher genre. The only reason for this getting a 2 out of 10 stars rating, and not a 1 rating, is simply because the production value to the movie was fairly alright, as was the camera work. The rest of the movie just suffered horrendously under the pointless and utterly irrelevant storyline presented in "American Weapon". If you enjoy slasher movies, then stay well clear of this particular movie.

  This also know as Blood Shed not to be confused with the upcoming movie Blood shed (2014), Which is not out yet) Blood Shed is the story of six beautiful travellers who head to the mountains for a getaway weekend, only to be terrorised by a homicidal war veteran, who has been programmed to kill without remorse. This is another slasher movie, As I was in a slasher mood and I just could not get into this movie at all. I found everyone to be really annoying, the killing dose not take too long to start , first part of the movie, pace was okay but the last half of the movie just dragged on. The kills was kinda of dull and boring, nothing new here, that we not seen 100 times before and done better. I found the killer to be so stupid in some scenes, ( a Girl goes into a car, he break into the car, then girl goes out the other door and then the killer, instead of going around car to get her, He goes into the car, to get out car. Okay! The acting was okay-ish, not bad acting but they so annoying, you wish they die. The ending, well it fits in with the rest of movie. 3 out of 10

  Some powerful women actresses in this film shot mainly in a cabin in the forest. Excellent acting from the men too. Lots of action and also thoughtful insight on America in war.

• This is an illegal listing by IMDb which we have requested to be deleted

  To IMDb: No Charlie this is incorrect. This listing is incorrect and illegal. You do not have the right to publish false information about a release that never happened. This is libel. Delete this title immediately or I will take legal action against you. IMDb is not keeping with its stated "aim to be the most complete and reliable source of movie information on the web" because this is in error. This false and incorrect error is hurting our ability to sell the movie to foreign buyers. A work-in-progress version of the movie was stolen and posted illegally on the web. It is not the correct or final version of the Film. This title was never released anywhere - not in theaters, not on DVD. Charlie, use your brain, have a heart, get off your power trip. Because you are incorrect and this goes against the published policy of IMDb. And it is libel, which is illegal. This is a public demand to match the one I already submitted to you privately: Remove this title immediately. Your refusal to remove it is infuriating and gives your website a lack of credibility. Not to mention it is illegal to cost us money via libel ! By definition this is a published false statement that is damaging to a person's reputation; a written defamation. I can and will sue you personally Charlie and IMDb as a business entity if this title is not removed. I am the producer of this Film and never submitted it to IMDb in the first place, so whoever did, did so in error and illegally. They have no right to submit anything on my behalf. Possibly it was an actor selfishly looking to add a personal credit at the expense of the production. It is incorrect and unethical to allow people to comment negatively on our film when they are viewing an incomplete work-in-progress that was stolen, perhaps by a volunteer at the Sundance Film Festival, and distributed illegally. They are hurting our credibility with foreign buyers for this film because they are reviewing a half-finished bootleg internet version of our film. It is not right. Call me if you need to discuss. I do not hide behind some alias so I can write hateful or hurtful untruths about people or their work, as the reviewers on your site obviously do, without any repercussions to themselves. My contact info is available below. Cliff Vasko 310.995.2232 Original request: Title: American Weapon (2014) URL: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1373403/ Relationship: WriterDirectorProducer Reason: I am the Producer and Director of this film. It was never released anywhere. There was a bootleg version of an early rough cut of the unfinished feature, that I believe was stolen from a work-in-progress Sundance Film Festival submission, that made its way to the internet in Germany or someplace. But it was not the correct or final version of the film! This film was never made available to the public. This is in fact illegal, because I own the full Copyright to this motion picture. I sincerely request that this title be removed from your website immediately. The film was not even finished until this year. This error is making the recently-completed version of the film appear as if it was already released (it was not) and potentially makes international sales impossible for our new sales agent. I have no idea who posted this title on your site to begin with, but it was not me, and it is not right. Please remove this title as it is listed in error and is invalid. Thank you!! Sincerely, Cliff Vasko You can contact me directly at 310.995.2232 or cliffvasko@yahoo.com Thank you again.
