The Wounded

Yeah not everyone's cup of tea or coffee, but I'm into gang life films. I really enjoyed the raw, indie approach.

A lot of the acting was whacked, but the story kept me watching. Expected a slasher movie, got a gangsta vs. crazies.

There was a certain whack-a-doo look in certain characters that in their eyes you only see in hood-rats that when they find out their gangsta boyfriend is cheating on them - and they're off and running.

There are a lot of crazy characters you just gotta be on the lookout for.

The cult girls definitely worth a look. The main cult beauty is worth looking at twice, or more.

What she does to one of the characters is something to... Wait For It...

Ah, go see the "Banana clip" - you'll see what I mean.

Other IMDb posted comments of mine have criticised others for unnecessarily deriding a film and often calling it "the worst ever" when it clearly isn't. As I've said before, there are usually worse out there. Really, really bad films....Dudes, this is an example! For everyone who honestly believed that 'Scarred' or 'Beast of Bray Road' was the worst ever - please watch 'The Wounded'! This is the real deal! I'll offer one plus point - the film tries to send out a positive message to young offenders. For that, in all its anti-Nazi, pro-morals preaching, I salute you. Having said which, quite how does a film that also seems to object to gang violence manage to celebrate its heroes surviving BECAUSE they work together AS a violent gang? Messages aside, however, this is incompetent. No production values, no decent choreography of action, the worst sound and cinematography ever and a rambling, poorly edited narrative. Good actors? Half-good actors? No, mate, not even garbage actors. They're worse than that! This is painful to watch. A prison based version of 'Dangerous Minds' that has a rubbish bit of satanic malarkey thrown in at the end. Devoid of atmosphere or tension. Still, DO watch it. Just to prove my point that too many contributors to IMDb are to eager to slate films as the worst ever when they're clearly not.

This is by far the worst film I have ever seen. The film is obviously shot on a shoestring budget, but that is no excuse for the poor quality. The story jumps about so much and the editing is so poor it is almost impossible to follow.

I saw it on the Horror Channel which admittedly can show some "lesser quality" films, but I am at a loss as to why they would bother showing this. I can only imagine it was bought as part of a job lot, but someone should have taken the decision to file it away as one never to be inflicted on the public.

The story makes no sense, the characters have the intellect of amoeba and the dialogue is truly cringemaking. I am surprised the complete cast and crew was not made up of Alan Smithee.

Caught this ultra low budget action movie going on PLEX the other day. PLEX and TUBI are streaming some pretty obscure movies and this being one of them.

It being a Troma release I wanted to give it a watch. While it certainly won't be everyone's cup of tea it definitely has a late 90s low budget nostalgia vibe about it. It's a Troma release so that already sets the tone in my opinion. I would describe the movie at best as just mindless action escapism. The producers and director were smart enough to include enough gory action and just enough eye candy to keep you watching.

Lastly I was shocked at some of the cast who obviously went on to bigger things.

The Wounded is hilariously bad. Which is obviously why Troma picked it up. As they do. The direction and editing, the non-existent acting, and the weak Hip-Hop soundtrack, are all just dumb. As is the entire film. But I have to give it some merit for being so terrible, that I get a good chuckle out of it, when I re-watch it.

So dumb.
