Angel Of Death: Movie Review

TITLE: ANGEL OF DEATH
RELEASE: 2009
STARRING: ZOE BELL, JAKE ABELL
RATED: NR (Strong Violence, Gore, Language, Drug usage)
PLOT:  Eve (Bell) is a sexy assassin who kills without remorse - until one botched hit changes everything. Caught off guard, Eve is stabbed in the head and inadvertently murders a young girl. The blade is removed, but the damage is done: Eve's mind is now filled with visions of past victims. The hunter becomes the haunted and this killing machine is plagued with remorse. Unable to "work," this mob asset has become a liability. Eve's only chance to survive is to track down her ruthless bosses before their new hitman finds her.
RATING: ***

REVIEW: While watching this entire film, I could not help but feel like I am watching an Asylum version of Kill Bill. Maybe it was because Zoe Bell was Uma THurman's stunt double for both segments. Maybe it was because of simular plot elements. Maybe it was because this movie had a Grindhouse-esque feel to it. In reality, it is all three. This being Zoe Bell's Second film, she does a very good job playing an assassin that is simular to that of The Bride from Kill Bill. When judging from this film to her performance in Gringhouse Preasents: Deth Proof were she played as herself, I must admit that this girl knows how to play roles. I do hope to see her in more movies in the future.
Jake Abell (known for being in Percy Jackson And The Olympians: The Lightning Thief) does a good job playing a mature role here as the main villian, but you can tell he was just trying to have fun with the role as much as possible. I will admit that it was fun seeing him slash around that razor blade of his as if he was Sweeney Todd. Which leads me to another point: his character in a few ways reminds me of Sweeney in the fact that he kills people with a shaving razor blade.
Overall, this is a pure Grindhouse film and as such, it does pretty well. The entire film was originaly a ten part minisode off the website Crackle.com, but has of now been released on DVD. I never watched the mini-sodes, just watched the entire film. I do reconmend this film if you love Grindhouse, Kill Bill, Death Proof, or just like seeing a bad ass woman killing people.
