Crimson Winter (2013)

Don't Believe the Hype

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

For me: This movie was a beautiful Vampire film. I never expected it to be this good. It is real Gothic. If you want a film full of CGI effects then this movie is not for you - this movie has more realism than most high dollar Hollywood films because it is not filled out with CGI effects. This movie did not need a bunch of fight scenes with effects to make it good - because the story was good.Also, the scenery and costuming is to die for as well as nice casting/acting and a good story. I loved the ending - the falcon (that is all I will say with out giving the story away).On the subject of language: Yes the movie is in English. Very very little of the movie is in French and Latin. A copy I watched of this film online had no subtitles for the foreign languages BUT I now own a copy of the film and the DVD does in-fact have the subtitles. And would LOVE to see a sequel! (They could leave what happens next to our imagination or create a part two.) I give this one a 10/10. Truly Gothic (realism) without Hollywood glitz and glamour.

There is an affection, that you may or may not have towards Low Budget movies. You might relish in the way they are done, how much effort the filmmakers have put into them and give them bonus points for trying and going for their dreams. This movie could be one of those cases you'd need those bonus points to give this movie a boost.The effects are not as bad (considering this is really low budget of course), the tangling story lines and time jumping might cause a few headaches though. There is also the language issue, which is a nice touch, but might not win too many people over. There is a decent amount of blood and action, but overall there is nothing that can really redeem this. Not worth your time

I love these low budget movies. they prove that talent goes a long way you don't need million dollar budgets, or over rated, over paid actors. When you have a good story and a good story teller the rest falls into place, If you don't give these movies a chance you will miss out on so much just like I use to miss out. I'm so happy i began watching these movies. I have seen some great acting, great producing, great directing, brilliant story telling, all done with peanut shells when compared to the bloated Hollywood remakes, I'm so tiered of watching remakes it makes no sense just think of how great these films would be if they had half the money the big blockbuster films get. That's why KICK-STARTER is such a valuable site now we get to back movies we want made by watching clips on kick-starter and donating for the movie to be made please visit and support the little guys spread the word.

What a terribly lousy waste of time. The story is terrible. The actors are real bad, the German Syncro even worse. Yawning boredom, from the first Moment, mainly due to the depressed half-baked Dialogues (which, incidentally, in the film far outweigh.) "action scenes" if you ever may call them, are terribly bad, battles that are always shown only in one vs.one, also if it is to represent mass slaughter. I seriously wonder whether in the credits as something like "Special Effects" is, if so, it should be prohibited, that such a film use such words at all in the end credits. The music is incredibly inappropriate, but bears wonderful to generally prevailing mood of depression and Boredom. All in all, I would think a completely successful Film, made by elementary school students (but only a maximum of 8 Actor and 10 extras)
