The Redsin Tower (2006)

My rating - 6/10

When a young man is dumped by his girlfriend she decides to go with some of her friends to and old, supposedly haunted building called The Redsin Tower. Her, now ex boyfriend takes the loss badly and experiences anger and suicidal thoughts. He follows the group to the tower and soon all hell breaks loose and bodies start to pile up.

After creating the ultra realistic and ultra nasty August Underground trilogy Fred Vogel attempts to make his first "proper" movie. While I do like it and think it's one of his better efforts there's definitely some highs and lows. The acting ranges from good to okay. There's some nice looking shots, but one thing that really annoyed me is the fact that once they all get to the tower everything is so damn dark that you can barely see fuck all!. Even turning up the brightness doesn't help.

The gore, of which there is plenty is excellent, when you can actually see it that it, but for casual horror fans it may be a bit too much though so be warned. Personally I could have done without seeing a guy vomit up a loads of worms, which just happened to be one of the only times I was thankful for the overly dark cinematography.

If you're looking for a low budget horror that mixes elements of Slasher movies and The Evil Dead, that can also be pretty graphic and gross then give it a try, although the official DVD release from ToeTag is rare and very expensive now so you may have to look elsewhere for it.
