Brash British Action...

If you ever got around to watching Left For Dead, the debut feature from the team at Modern Life? the you'll know what to expect with their second film 'Ten Dead Men' because it's very much more of the same… So what CAN you expect? Well most lots of violence, very few female characters, testosterone, guns, deaths a plenty and action galore. If this is your idea of heaven then this film is for you… I you like your films a bit more refined then may I suggest you look elsewhere.

The biggest difference between the two films is that in terms of filmmakers the team have taken a massive step forward. More polished, better shot and edited, better direction and far more bang for your buck means that this film is about as close to a Hollywood action movie you could make on such a limited budget.

Is it perfect? No. It doesn't always make sense, the pacing is a touch off at the start and Doug Bradley's voice over (whilst expertly delivered) doesn't always add the value intended. It's also not as fun as Left for Dead with hardly any comic relief making it tough going at times.

If you like your films in your face and brash, then Ten Dead Men is the perfect uber violent hit.
