Dorathen Better Late Then Never

TeenzTen An action-packed slog

Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

gavin6942 Heather (Natalie jean) is broke. She has a soul sucking job as a stripper. Her live-in girlfriend Victoria has a baby and a coke problem. Her boss Harry is an abusive maniac. Life cannot get much worse... or so she thought.This film is spoiled by rather weak performances and an almost non-existent plot. But we quickly get the impression that acting and plot were not really concerns for those involved. Rue Morgue says the film "was a huge hit with the underground horror community" and used copies were selling for $100 before a second run. Those who dropped the cash surely did not get their money's worth.We have some staples of Doug Sakmann and Backseat Conceptions: the excessive amount of naked women and the excellent gore (Sakmann tends to run in the same circles as the Suicide Girls and adult stars like Joanna Angel). Pretty sure I saw "XXX-orcist" in the background at one point.As a bonus, I learned the term "the High Five" which had somehow previously escaped me.

Reaper-of-Souls I understand some of the reasons why CROSS BEARER is getting low reviews, but come'on, 1 out of 10? That is not fair. There are much worse films out there with bigger budgets that are more deserving of a 1 than this. I get it, though. Some unintentionally(?) funny/corny lines (like the one I used in my header summary). The acting was nothing to write home about, but it was passable. The gore effects were decent. The lighting was really good. The girls were pretty hot for the most part. I would have liked it better though if the killer talked less. The bag or whatever it was he wore over his head was pretty cool. That was probably the only scary aspect to the film. I do think the filmmakers have potential with a bigger budget and I am looking forward to watching THE CEMETERY hopefully sometime soon.

Flow I dunno why exactly, but I gave this one a 4! Usually I don't do this with such bad movies, but it had some good parts in it. Now, even before beginning to explain myself, I'm gonna say one thing: I do NOT recommend Cross Bearer! To no one!So, the acting was not as bad as I expected, usually you get much worse than this. The gore was kinda OK I guess for such a low budget horror, nudity fully present, some natural acts, good decisions, interesting "mask" design and a plot that ties itself in the middle of the movie. The camera work is actually better than most such productions, so all in all, there are some good things here, but if you see it, you'll understand why this should be avoided. It still is a bad production, weak plot, horrible main actor, well the killer that is, annoying at its best.Therefore, Cross Bearer will remain a No-No, hope you people will trust the reviews and stay away from this one. If not, you're only going to waste time.Cheers!

davannacarter This movie is torture porn, plain and simple. It's got the usual crap you see in most horror movies these days: bad acting, bad script, victim knocks the killer out but doesn't check to make sure the killer is dead, characters splitting up, no cell phone service, etc. When I was watching this movie I thought, "People aren't even trying to make anything new and engaging with horror movies these days. It's all about rehashing the same junk." And that's pretty much all this movie is: just a rehashing of the same junk any horror fan has seen before. The killer wears a bedsheet over his head. I subscribe to the idea that if you're going to conceal the killer's identity, give him a good disguise or a gruesome face. Don't just give him a bedsheet and a hammer and expect people to be scared.Without the credits, the movie is less than 65 minutes. And even within those 65 minutes there isn't much to watch. Much of it is just establishing the cardboard characters and their lives and long scenes inside a stripclub. I don't mind scenes of strippers at work. But I get the feeling the director put those scenes in the movie to keep the viewers interested and to pad together a movie that would have been a 30-40 min. short without the stripclub scenes.All in all, if you've seen torture porn movies before then you know what you're getting into if you decide to watch Cross Bearer. So you only have yourself to blame if you watch it and end up hating it. I tried to warn you by putting out this 1-star review of this movie that deserves 0 stars at most.
