Film Threat gives Sex Machine 4 Stars! I should be on the road right now, but I was so happy with this review that I wanted to post it. I’ve been reading Film Threat for what feels like forever and the early issues of their print publication were what convinced me that regular people could make movies. They are also fairly tough on movies. So to read this review which perfectly nails what I was trying to do with the movie makes my day and gives me the fuel I need to make the drive to Oklahoma City. Here’s an excerpt:
This movie has all the makings of a rockin’ B-action flick, and frequently “Sex Machine” rocks the house with its spastic “Natural Born Killers” like appearance. The wildly creative look and feel of the feature makes for an intense ride. But what’s most remarkable here is the conscious, and successful, effort to slow things down and build the characters, to immerse you fully in the situation, to make you feel for this poor bastard Frank. These characters matter, you feel for their plight. This isn’t just a bunch of people playing cops and robbers in front of a camera. This is action that counts!
