Dying God (2008)

Director: Fabrice Lambot
Writer: Jean Depelley, Fabrice Lambot
Cast: James Horan, Misty Mundae, Lance Henriksen

In a dark and decadent city, Sean Fallon (James Horan) - a corrupt cop - will have to face his own demons to put an end to a series of brutal rapes and murders of the most weirdest kind. With the help of the local pimps, headed by Chance (Lance Henriksen), Fallon will go the hunt for the serial killer, that may in the end not be human!

Truly dire film making on all fronts lazy acting, script, direction and fx work. Sure its a low budget film but even that can't excuse the lack of effort the cast and crew have put into it. Henriksen should know better than to take junk like this and I'd thought Misty Mundae had grown out of making trash after her cool turn in Lucky McKee's MOH episode 'Sick Girl' but I guess not. The plot starts with a back flash of a child running out of a jungle with a small baby in his arms, cut to present and there's a prostitute killing serial killer on the loose, who's MO is he's raping the victims to death in the hope he can father a child. Sleaze-ball cop Sean Fallon is assigned to catch the killer as its interfering with a local election. Turns out when he finally does track the killer it isn't human but a Monster/Demon trying unsuccessfully to father an offspring. The fx work for the monster is laughably bad and will remind you of the 10 dollar suites they use in power rangers. Gores pretty low as well only remotely memorable set piece being the monster cutting an unborn foetus from a pregnant victim. The films littered with mild sex scenes and naked chicks Misty herself gets her top off for a quick car sex scene. For a film this bad its a shame its so joyless maybe a few gags would of managed to turn it into a trash gag fest but as it is don't waste your time. Maybe a MST3K/Rifftrax style comedy overdub would save it.
