Codex Atanicus
Codex Atanicus is a three story anthology by Spanish director Carlos Atanes. Before watching the movie I never heard of the guy, but the introduction video on the DVD by one of his regular actresses Arantxa Peņa made me realize that I'm in for a hell of a ride. Experimental, bizarre, sick, strange - these are some of the words that describe the stories contained in Codex Atanicus. The anthology is opened by a 20 minute short from 1995 called Metaminds & Metabodies. I am really not into this kind of experimental videos, but I will try to summarize. It opens with a girl singing in the club. Everything looks ultra underground and the girl is connected with some wires to the walls. Strange people are watching her...

Movie Review: Green River Killer

Story
The story is about famous serial killer Gary Ridgway and how he killed prostitutes and dumped their corpses off at the Green River near Seattle, Washington.

Comments
Green River Killer is definitely one of the worst movies I've seen in a very long time, it's so horribly bad that I actually felt sick after watching it. Not that it's a sick movie but that it blew so much it makes me feel bad just thinking about it and that I wasted time on watching this piece of junk.

Not that I expected much from it in the first place but I thought it could maybe be an interesting take on the Gary Ridgway story. But no, it's complete crap from start to finish.

Only time kinda worth watching is when they show real footage from an interview with Ridgway and when we get to hear him talk. Although even that's not really that interesting either, but the only "good" thing that the movie has to offer, the rest is just the worst kind of movie experience possible.

It's shot with a crappy camera and the overall movie looks like complete shite. It's supposed to take place in the 80's and let me tell you, there not even one decent looking person in the whole movie. I've never seen so many ugly people in a movie without getting a break. Not to rack down on people's apperance but everyone's so ugly it's hard not to think about it.

The acting is so horrible I won't even go further into that. And we get to see George Kiseleff (who stars as Ridgway) drag hookers home and after boring the viewer with some crappy sex scene for 20 minutes he strangles them and dumps them off at the river. Then onto the next hooker and repeat everything again, and again.

Final Comments
The movie is so slow and boring it's amazing and the acting is the worst ever. The music in it is extremely bad and annoying and to be honest this is probably one of the worst flicks I've seen in my entire life. There's absolutely no reason whatsoever to watch this piece of crap. Stay away, you've been warned.
