In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

I am a big fan of Wesley Snipes, and I watched this because he was in it. I thought it had to be a good movie because Wesley Snipes was in it, but this is one of the worst movies I have ever watched. No plot, no story line, and bad acting. I thought that at least Wesley Snipes would make it some what watchable, but his presence did nothing to enhance this movie. I keep watching knowing it would get better after a slow start, but this was not the case. Horrible, do not waste your time.

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.

Cursed with a rare ability, a gunman who finds his victims returning to life as zombies plan to overtake the sacred grounds of his origin and break the barrier to let the dead souls return to Earth, forcing him to action to stop them.Overall this one was quite a disappointing but still enjoyable enough effort that has some decent elements for it. The biggest factor for this one is the absolutely kinetic comic-book style throughout this one here, which tends to leave this one with a distinct visual style throughout the action on display which is quite fun here. There's the type of appearance that suits the villains throughout here which is very apparent in the way they come back to life as different zombies which meshes quite well with the graphic kills, rampant action scenes and the old-west setting being quite well utilized by this one to make for quite a fine time here. That first part, about the different zombie appearance on display offers up another stellar point in the film by offering a rather gruesome series of main villains that effectively make an impression here as to inspiring fear in others, as the lizard-like skin, battle ornaments and even masks and helmets come into play here which makes them quite imposing and definitely creepy, especially given the Old-West setting which is quite well utilized here as it makes for quite an enjoyable time overall here utilizing this kind of setting for all the different action scenes here which makes this one quite enjoyable. These here are what make it enjoyable, though there's some big flaws here that hold it down. The main factor against this one is the fact that there's just no story at work within this, as events tend to come and go without any explanation or force acting on the rest of the events that play out here leading things to just happen without reason. There's little told here about what they're trying to do in the town, why they need the radical Christian group or even why he's cursed to have those killed come back to life. We're told the curse has a part of it but there's little here that makes sense as to why that would befall him in the manner depicted or why that would bother him in the first place which tends to make their motivations simply being killing random people innocently and having him play a hero of some kind which is quite telling of the story as a whole. This is also confusing in what happens to the zombies here as they're quite far removed from what is normally considered zombies as they're basically the same person only with lizard-like contact lenses and a more invulnerable-but-not-invincible body that can be wounded more than normal but still die, are allowed to talk and think like people and aren't in the slightest bit worried about eating flesh which tends to make them quite different from what's normally found in the genre with no reason again for offering this kind of change. The last factor here is the rather pedantic and relaxed pace throughout here which tends to really take it's time going anywhere and not really offering the kind of action-packed spectacle that would've benefited from this kind of set-up, which might also have to do with the lame story as well. Otherwise, this one wasn't all that bad.Rated R: Graphic Violence, Language, Brief Nudity and children-in- jeopardy.

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.
