Mjeteconer Just perfect...

GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

trashgang I found this stinker at a horror convention. But by seeing that it was made in 2007 and had almost none reviews you know immediately that there is something wrong.Overall, it delivers on the gory parts and even on the red stuff but it fails completely storywise. Nothing is explained, you just don't know who the viewers are and why they play the game 'sport kills'. How the victims are chosen isn't explained either but at the end you see Rachel going to play the game again but then it suddenly stops. Again you are left with so many questions. The best acting was for me David C. Hayes. The rest was all mediocre, the Assassin was believable too but the others failed. To end, not good on story but it deliver once they are playing the game.Gore 3/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5

dschmeding What the heck... the only thing "Sportkill" has going is that it could surf the "torture porn" wave. Basically thats what the movie revolves around in the center... a sadistic club of rich guys who abduct people and make them kill each other. If they don't they get killed by a fat guy with a latex mask.The movie doesn't even make a hassle to get to the hows and wheres. You see a female mortician working, then abducted, then being "dressed up" by a strange hillbilly and off we go to the happy killing fun where guys have to drink their girlfriends blood, people have to stab and amputate and if they don't they end up in the "labyrinth of horror" which is basically just a set of wood boxes.What do you get... paper thin plot, ridiculous acting, little gore that is even funny (I laughed when a chick gets sown in half, then has her friend come in to kill her by choking her while her lower body is missing. The effect was really bad) and a mix of kills or a "Haze"-style claustrophobia in the "labyrinth of horror" which is neither claustrophobic nor creepy, just plain silly.Basically this is what you get when one person does directing, editing and score. The soundtrack is just a series of low synthie noises appearing all throughout the movie. Like the movie itself there are now ups and downs, no dynamic, no development and even when the finale could have had something to it Mr. Producer spoils it with real bad editing. This movie makes no sense whatsoever, so better ignore it.

rip-o I got this in a batch of DVD's from a pal of mine traveling over seas. I haven't seen it anywhere here in the states.'Sportkill' is about being put in a situation where you have to kill to stay alive or make a decision on how you want to die. You can take your chances being put underground, or get whacked out plain and simple.The story bounces around quite a bit. It made me wish we could have gotten to know a few of the main characters a little more. It just gives you enough from everyone to keep you interested. I've seen films like this in the past where you either like this style or you don't. I don't have a problem with it, meaning the more characters the better. I happen to be one of the movie viewers who likes gore. This film lacked the funds to give you over the top type effects, like in studio films, but you get what you're looking for in more of a gritty, underground type of feel. Even that is easy to mess up with low funds but it works here.Some scenes felt very incomplete. Like I said, it bounces around a lot so you're in and out pretty quick as the movie flies by. I wanted to see more of what went on in the betting room. There were a lot of men in there, so give me more then a couple quick backgrounds on main characters. And let me see who some of these people are at home, away from Sportkill.I enjoyed it. I like movies that show you what they're made of. Some films are made to be pathetic on purpose. 'Sportkill' made me want to keep watching, even though I kept thinking some where around the corner there is something more to Sportkill? We get a little taste of how people are treated here, how everything works, and the kinds of people that show up for this type of entertainment. It has gore, it's creepy, and there are some freaking crazy people involved. Some talk, some talk way to much, and some wear masks who don't talk at all.I'll leave it at that!

Claudio Carvalho My reviews in IMDb usually follow a pattern: I begin with a brief summary of the plot and then I give my opinion about the movie. I have just seen this "Sportkill" and I confess that I have had troubles to write the summary of the plot, since there is no story, only pretexts for a sequence of sadism. The mortician Rachel (Donna Wood) is kidnapped and forced to participate in a sick contest against other victims for her own survival in a private club hosted by Ivan (David C. Hayes) for an audience of gamblers that bet high stakes. Each player that denies participating in the sick game shall choose between the wooden structure, meaning to be buried alive; or The Assassin, meaning to be murdered by a killer.The shameful and gruesome "Sportkill" is a total crap: there is no story, the characters are not developed and the acting is awful, associated to an amateurish camera, terrible lighting and cinematography and an annoying soundtrack. My vote is two.Title (Brazil): "Sportkill, O Clube da Morte" ("Sportkill, the Death Club")
