Blood Tracks

Warning: Spoilers
Deep in the snowy mountains a mother took her children after killing her husband, their father(he was a mean, abusive drunk who wasted money on booze), living currently in a condemned factory where a band named Solid Gold and a video film crew and dancers plan to shoot if and when the damn avalanches quit ruining everything. The children, now adults, are unstable and it's only a matter of time before a cinematographer or sound guy runs across them, igniting a spree of inevitable violence to all who enter their domain. Personally, I found BLOOD TRACKS dull and monotonous, losing interest minute by minute. Essentially, the movie consists of characters attacked from behind while their minds are elsewhere. Most of the murder sequences take place in the factory which is a perfect place if you are to besiege victims. The dubbing is poor and flat, with characters so bland I couldn't acquire one iota of interest for any of them. While the methods of violence can be bloody, most of the killing happens off screen, or quickly as we are accustomed to in the latter Friday the 13th pictures. There is the usual assortment of beheadings, limb removals, shootings and stabbings(all low budget affairs), the plot a laborious, cyclical(attack, kill and repeat), repetitive bore.
