Death Warmed Up

Entertaining by spurts (of entrails)

&quot;Death Warmed Up&quot; is one of those movies that could either be utterly inept garbage, or some kind of surrealist masterpiece. I mean, it&apos;s clearly the first one, but you can&apos;t help but appreciate in on that other level, the one undoubtedly unintended by the producers, who probably just wanted to draw an audience with some gore, and tacked the rest of the movie together on the run.

From what I could gather, the movie is about a kid who is brainwashed into killing his parents by an evil doctor and goes to an insane asylum. When he is released from the asylum, somehow he is able to instantly recruit a few friends and takes them to an island where he intends to kill the doctor, but the friends seem to think they&apos;re just going for a holiday.

The mad doctor has some henchmen, who are sort of like zombies, so I guess that&apos;s where the title came from. It also has some surprisingly violent scenes, which stick out because you can tell they were the most expensive scenes to film. Footage is replayed a few times of a disgusting brain surgery operation, where the exposed brain pulses like a heart, and in the climax of this sequence, fingers reach into the brain matter and pull out a round, grey thing.

I&apos;m not that surprised it was banned here, as that sequence is like something out of a Fulci or Franco movie.

I enjoyed &quot;Death Warmed Up&quot; despite, or perhaps because of, its ineptitude of creation, the fact that it never finds a cohesive tone and is frequently confusing and not very well shot. It&apos;s still entertaining, all over the place like the character whose head explodes.
