Is 68 Kill a perfect film - or a film for everyone? Definitely not.
#68 KILL MOVIE POSTER FULL#
Is it full of crazy pulp action, hilarious circumstances, and awesome acting from the female leads (in particular)? Also yes. From there, Chip runs into a number of other unfortunate situations and women, including Monica (Shelia Vand, who shines here), who seems to be what would have happened if Lydia Deetz had grown up to become a small-town crime boss. She takes over in dominating Chip, but her methods are much kinder and sweeter than the ball- and face-busting Liza. After killing a rich couple (particularly a disgusting jerk named Ken), Liza and Chip find themselves kidnapping Violet (Alicia Boe). Of course, nothing goes right, and this is where the film really begins. Who doesn't want to escape from a life of poverty and debasing jobs? It's not a fortune, but for the poor couple trapped in Hicksville, it'll do just fine. If you haven't heard of this film, here's a recap: Chip (Matthew Gray Gubler) plays a guy easily manipulated into a ton of horrific crimes usually pulled off by his crazy girlfriend Liza (a terrific AnnaLynne McCord), all for the sake of scoring a measly $69,000. Based on Bryan Smith's novel of the same name (a sequel - "68 Kill Part 2" - is already for sale on Amazon). If you read both articles, you'll see how polarizing this film has been to the film community, and I understand and appreciate each position.
You can read that interview here and Josh Hurtado's review here. Back in August, I interviewed director Trent Haaga and actor (sometimes director) Matthew Gray Gubler at Fantasia for their new movie, 68 Kill.
