I just finished watching Rob Schmidt (Wrong turn) "Right to die" and I have to say I was impressed! Let's make it clear: I'm a great fan of the Masters of horror series,although I discovered it from not to much time, and as far as the episodes I saw 'til now goes..
I can only pay homage to the people that came up with this concept of gathering the best horror directors to end up with many stories that to me are a classic already...
. I mean you can't go wrong with the names that appear in this mini-movies series; when I saw my first episode (Cigarette Burns) I was blown away..
then I saw the Argento one and I was thrilled (by the way I'm italian so I'm a big fan of Argento movies...
Can't wait to see when it will be released the "Masters of italian horror" series!!!
)But enough talkin, let go straight to the review of this "Right to die". It all starts with a couple having a car accident..
.the husband survives while the wife comes out with severe burns;they are both taken to the hospital and here the guy,named Cliff,begin to feel guilty about what happened..
.he then discuss with a female doctor if carry on with the life-saving procedures or otherwise stop the thing right there; he is adviced by the doctor to call his lawyer, wich turns out to be also a friend of his, to fix the all thing up.We later discover that Cliff's sense of guilty is well founded because he was cheating on his wife.
And that's where the troubles come, as the comatose girl becomes as vengeful as ever on is "beloved" husband as well as on everybody around him The first part of this episode made me think I was in front of the dramatic, conscence-raising matter of euthanasia and I tought to myself "good, but this has little to do with an horror movie! Hell, how wrong I was! In fact in the second part Abby's wrath,that's the name of the wife, unleashes on the unaware victims with tones of gore, good (and well diserved!
) killing scenes. This one is about blood, thorn flesh, burnt skin and one hell of a vindictive lady..
The acting was very good and so were the sound effects..about the filming and the directors job I tought it was almost perfect as he mamaged to keep the audience attention up througout all the movie:And the assessment about the special effects is resumed in one word: AWESOME!
In other words..if you are a fan of this series you can't miss this one; if you are not Isuggest you to watchit anyway and then tell me what you think about it.
