AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Whitech It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.
classicsoncall I suppose it had to happen eventually. "Gallowwalkers" probably takes the prize as the very first ISIS inspired, supernatural horror Western. I mean, there were beheadings all over the place which at one point made it seem like that's all the story was going to be about.With it's low IMDb rating and scathing reviews, I can't say that the film I watched was all bad, but it wasn't that good either. I will say though, that it made effective use of some excellent visuals with the characters. The zombie looking guy with the scarring all over his face and body was the most interesting, but darned if I could figure out who he was as the story progressed. And then he wasn't around for very long anyway.I got the main gist of the story as Wesley Snipes's character was on a mission of revenge for the brutal rape of his adopted sister Sueno (Alyssa Pridham), but the non-linear story telling style combined with the idea that Aman (Snipes) was out to kill the five bad guys a second time around made it all a little hard to follow. I guess it doesn't really matter because I'm starting to forget about the story already anyway.One thing I had to check out though was who had the unenviable task of taking on the role of Skullbucket. It looked like the guy could have been a contender at the next WrestleMania, and wouldn't you know it, it turned out to be Diamond Dallas Page! I guess that doesn't mean anything if you're not a wrestling fan, but even if you are, there's no way to recognize him under that, what was it? It must have been a skull bucket.
Abdalkarem Al Abawi Growing up watching Demolition Man, Art of War, Balde trilogy, and the fan, I became a die-hard fan myself of Mr. Snipes. I felt bad of how Mr. Snipes career took a plunge after his Tax evasion case and sentence... But I had big hopes for his return...This movie was a total destruction of any hope... it is a B-Movie at best... Some of the worst acting I've ever seen, No story Nothing... Except for Mr. Snipes presence, honestly I'm not sure his presence counts in pros or cons. If you have the least respect for Mr. Snipes, take my advice and DON'T WATCH THIS DISASTER.
jasorngcntypnk first off this is a straight to DVD movie. so if you are wanting a Oscar caliber movie then this is not for you. i gave it a 7 for a straight to DVD movie. this is much better then most. and way better then any SYFY channel movie. any one that says this is the worst movie ever must have never seen sharknado. i have Chiller channel and this movie came on. never heard about it. but was able to sit through the whole film, which is not common with Chiller and SYFY films. the budget seemed high for a movie like this. not just some bad actors in front of a green screen. good kill scenes. if you go in to this film knowing it went straight to DVD and won no awards then you won't be let down.
Leofwine_draca A zombie western shot in the Namibian desert sounds like a hoot, but GALLOWWALKERS is something of a mixed bag when it comes to filmed entertainment. It may be due to the troubled waters behind the scenes, which saw Snipes arrested for tax evasion and jailed for three years. Not good news when your star is sent to prison halfway through filming.Still, it could have been a lot worse and GALLOWWALKERS does have stuff going for it. The story is pretty unique, featuring a cursed gunslinger (Snipes on strong, stylish form) whose victims always come back from the dead to be killed a second time around. The zombie stuff is handled fairly well, but the production values are weak with a distinctive B-movie look and feel to the whole thing.A solid turn from Snipes helps to anchor things, and there's enough blood 'n' guts for the horror crowd to stay tuned in. But in the end this has to go down as a failure, purely because it's completely forgettable as a film with little rewatchability. A failure that tries hard, but still a failure nonetheless.
