PodBill Just what I expected
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
CineCritic2517 wow, an honest horrible movie! ..one you can comfortably turn off after 2 minutes with a smile for it never tries to hide its minus zero production-value.Atrocious acting, a screenplay from a high-school writing-contest and a plot straight out the Lazy Book of Rehashed and Done to Death Plotpoints. Do movies get any worse? They do, but only slightly...Great fun with a couple of brews, some grass and a bored set of friends and a brilliant motivation to change the evening for the better and simply get out of the house to..take out the trash? ..just about anything is better than to sit through this one.-0/10
Paul Andrews Snapped starts as would be photographer Amy McCanic (Tiffany Amber Knight) is commissioned by a shadowy figure known as Astrum (Joe Costa) to create an exhibition for an art show, Amy is told in no uncertain terms that if she succeeds she will be set for life but if she fails & turns in a crap exhibit her career as a photographer will be over, simple as that. Amy takes inspiration from the current exhibits which depict death, suicide & murder. Amy's day then takes a turn for the worse, she discovers that her no good drug using boyfriend Trevor (co-associate producer Michael Bien) is in another world, they are about to be evicted from their apartment, she gets ripped off by the apartment manager, when Trevor rejoins the land of the living he steals all of Amy's money to buy more drugs & Amy has just had it really. Starting with the fat ugly apartment manager who ripped her off Amy goes on a killing spree as she discovers that the best way to photograph death is to first create it herself! Those around Amy begin to drop like flies as anyone, anywhere at anytime becomes a potential victim but Astrum doesn't care as long as the exhibit is ready but who is Astrum working for & what is they're reasons behind what is happening...This Canandian American co-production was directed by Jeff Prosserman & Julian Van Mil who were also both producers on the thing, personally I found very little to enjoy in Snapped. The script by Steve Abbott has a few problems, first it's incredibly slow & boring which kills it dead in the water. The character's are some of the most unlikable I've ever had the misfortune to watch, most (not all) films need a likable central character that you can relate to, root for & get behind but such a character is sorely lacking in Snapped. I found Amy one of the most annoying & downright unpleasant leading character's in any film I've seen recently, I hated everything about her which made it impossible for me to care about anything happening to her, Trevor was a lowlife thieving junkie, the apartment manager was a fat ugly lowlife thieving pervert & Astrum didn't seem bothered by the fact Amy was murdering people, when you think about it wouldn't those photo's incriminate Amy? Surely even she wasn't that stupid as to hand them over so they could be put on display to the ENTIRE WORLD when they clearly showed murdered people, people who I would imagine would eventually be reported missing or they're remains found somewhere. Listen Amy it's no good having lots of money if your stuck behind bars for the rest of your life, is it? The whole story is a nonsense, it takes itself 100% seriously (big mistake) & there are just so many annoying things about it that I pretty much hated every minute of it. By the way did I mention that the so-called 'twist' ending was crap & again made little sense? I didn't, oh well it is & it doesn't.Directors Prosserman & Van Mil don't do anything other low budget filmmakers haven't, I don't think Snapped looks particularly stylish or original & it looks more like a bland TV film. Forget about any atmosphere or scares as there aren't any. There are a few instances of gore, some guts, some spraying blood, a slit throat, hammer hits to the head & a couple of stabbings although it's far from the goriest film ever.Going straight-to-video technically Snapped is alright considering the budget must have been small to say the least, it's competent I'll give it that. The acting was poor, Amy really annoyed & I just didn't like her one bit & frankly I didn't feel any differently about anyone else either which made it an absolute chore to sit through.Snapped is crap, it has an intriguing central premise although when you think about it logically it makes no sense & falls flat on it's face. It's slow, the character's are awful, the kills are lame & nothing really worked for me, the most entertaining thing about Snapped is that on the IMDb main page for it in the 'Plot Summary' section they list Amy Mechanic (maybe she's Bob the Builder's sister...) instead of Amy McCanic! For masochists & insomniacs only, one to avoid.
burtie16 A story about Amy (Tiffant Knight) a rookie photographer who is willing to go any lengths to get her perfect shot.She's hacked off with her junkie boyfriend, pervie landlord, her friend… err… actually just about everybody. She sets about changing all this, and BOY, do she do it well! The acting from a couple of the actors (not Tiffany) isn't great but they obviously didn't have a very big budget for this. But the amount violence more than makes up for that. Overall its not bad. watchable. Tiffany Knight is a sexy psychopath.This Isn't widely available (in UK, dunno about US) so you'll have to dig deep to find it.
James_Storm34 Well this film is definitely an experience I will give it that, yes definitely an experience, probably the worst experience of my life!!! Where to start on this pile of dump? OK the film begins and it becomes blatantly obvious that not a single person in this thing has had an acting lesson in their lives, this is terrible and possibly the worst film I have seen, and believe me I have seen plenty of garbage and this is up there with the best of them. It makes Nikos the Impaler look like a damn Oscar winner. Also apparent in this film is that the director had absolutely no idea what he was doing and was probably smacked up off his tits when he made it. The way a low budget film usually works is usually that its so bad that its actually good, the acting is bad, the story is bad but its made and made so badly its entertaining. Snapped on the other hand is made badly, so badly yet it tries to be serious and in this department fails on every level. If your gonna try and make a serious film with a serious story and pull it off at least hire some people that can seriously act, otherwise get the hell away from the idea. Honestly it would of been more enjoyable spending an hour and 20 minutes getting booted in the knackers by a donkey.Anyone who thinks of watching this, I beg you to just think it over properly and I advise you against it strongly. The film should come with a do not operate heavy machinery while watching this warning. However if you do watch this and make it all the way through like I did then you are seriously hardcore. I had to suffer this rectal waste of a production, you shouldn't.... stay away!I give this film a... GIANT STEAMING PILE OF CRAP/10
