Following Rex Cohen, as a customer at the bank, he finds himself in the middle of a bank heist. Opportunity strikes for some heroic action but after it’s all over, Rex is suddenly on the wrong side of the law’s naughty stick. Society hails the man as a hero for his actions during the bank robbery, however, the law disagrees. Sentenced to 8-years in jail, when his release finally comes around, Rex is a viral sensation. Those that saw Rex fly into action still consider him worthy of his deeds. And this is how the Bloody Hell movie opens.
Like any anti-hero, Rex is a little bit crazy. Similarly to Nick Sax in Happy! TV show, Rex’s inner voice comes to life as a rambunctious mirror of himself instead of a blue unicorn. He sits across from him and flips imaginary tables, shouts imaginary obscenities, and shows us what Rex is really feeling. But who needs Cristopher Meloni’s Nick (can’t believe I just said that) when you’ve got Ben O’Toole as Rex Cohen? I immediately fell in love with absolutely everything about this amazing Australian actor.
Private Hell or Actual Hell
With the paparazzi in his face, at his house, and following him everywhere, Rex heads overseas. Finland is the chosen destination for finding some sort of reprieve for his infamy. The narrative for this down-on-his-luck ex-con resembles more of someone who broke half a dozen mirrors and walked under just as many ladders. Bad luck follows this guy everywhere. If Bloody Hell was in the same vein as Final Destination, Rex would be the only one who dies, over and over again. However, this isn’t Happy Death Day and Rex is not lucky enough to be given a do-over. In addition, Death might be hunting him down, but he’s not dead yet.
Horror movies don’t surprise me as often as I like. 2020 has brought me quite a few films that will make my “best of film list”. It’s been a great year for the cinema. Bloody Hell gave me the “oh s***” mouth-open moment I look for followed by the wry smile of sinister intentions I adore. Speckled with my favorite type of juxtaposition of score, upbeat music is intermittently inserted to show you the film’s playful side at the most inappropriate moments. A Russian-language film, Why Don’t You Just Die utilized this same concoction to set its chaotic atmosphere to perfection. In addition, writer Robert Benjamin’s backwoods style story infused with a Vontrapp-flavored family unit does it remarkably well here too.
This Movie is Bloody Great
One thing’s for sure though, the Bloody Hell movie is fantastically witty. The film uses tiny doses of minimalistic grossness in all the right places. More to the point, this awesome horror movie directed by Alister Grierson will give you more than it takes. The reveal it relinquishes around the halfway mark was unexpectedly brilliant. The pacing is strapped in with dynamite surprises that keep coming right up to the closing scenes. Props to Brad Shield for the amazing cinematography.
Is Rex Cohen a hero or a killer, you decide? But do not miss Bloody Hell 2020.
