Hauer had a great career in films and does make you wonder why he did this, was it done out of pure fun and something different. Certainly a throwback to he 80s with the cameras that used vhs tapes, a good opening score taken from Mark of The Devil and Cannibal Holocaust, I'm sure the end song was from the cartoon The Raccoons. It has plenty gore, bloodsplatter and our hero taking a time out to give a speech to a few new born babies.

Like the film but I still find the fact that the villains were able to set fire to a busload of Children without no one calling outside law enforcement help quite unrealistic. I'm guessing that they are so scared of The Drakes.

And whilst I can't remember the names, the supernatural characters that showed up at the end, didn't really fit and took me out of it.
