Aftermath (1994)


A movie about necrophilia.
This is a pretty disturbing short movie, it is directed by Nacho Cerdà.
It is a Spanish short horror movie, it runs about 30 minutes, and it contains no spoken dialogue.
It is the second movie in a trilogy of 3 short movies, the first one is The Awakening (1990),
and the third one is Genisis (1998)



We hear the sound of a car crash, and we see the body of a dog that has been run over.






At a hospital we see a young man listening to music on a headset while brining in a dead body, in the hospital hall way two people are sitting and mourning.

















In the morgue two pathologists are working on each of their dead body.
As one of them is cutting into the chest and stomach of a dead man, the other pathologist is getting sexually aroused by watching.
When one of the men is done working and is leaving, the second one brings in a female body.
As he is alone with her, he sees his chance to explore his sexual desires.





















It actually has very good effects, and the dead bodies, blood and guts looks real enough.
I like the way there is no speaking in the movie, and that they use 
the song Lacrimosa by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, it really makes the movie perverted and grotesque.

It gets the score 6 out of 10 

Bundy: An American Icon (2008)

Theodor Robert Bundy born 24 november 1946 and was executed by the electirc chair Januar 24 1989. He was a notorious serial killer in America during the 1970s.
He confessed to 30 counts of homicide, but the real number is unknown.
The movie is directed by Michael Feifer who has directed a series of other serial killer movies also, and weird enough a bunch of Christmas family movies.






The movie is a dramatization of Ted Bundy’s life.
Its starts with Ted Bundy murdering a young woman, and shouting at God.







Then there is a scene from Ted Bundy's childhood, where he gets to know that his grandfather is really his father.





We also see how Bundy gets a girl friend, and how their relationship is up and down, with arguments and good times.
Ted's girl friend tells Bundy she is sick of his childish behavior, and that he will never be a man, then she breaks up with him.







Ted Bundy kidnaps a girl, talking to her like she was his girl friend, and then kills her.









Bundy is luring girls into his car using different methods to charm them, or lure them into his car.



Later Ted is drunk in his car, and an officer stops to talk to him, checking out his car the officer finds handcuffs and also a rape/ killing kit. 
Ted gets arrested but later he escapes prison to kill again.









Now this is pretty much the only slightly good scene in the movie, where Ted kills two sleeping girls with a baseball bat.






Ted Bundy is his own lawyer in the court, and wants one of the officers who was at the crime scene to tell him in detail about what he saw. Here we get some glimpse from the murder scene.



The movie ends with Ted Bundy in jail, talking about porn and the society made him the murderer that he was, he gets the death penalty and is sentenced to death by the electric chair. 



The movie is not very good, but fair enough for braindead entertainment.
The actors are not good, and the killing effects are really bad, this is not the movie I had hoped for at all. There are other movies about Ted Bundy that are way better, such as "Ted Bundy" from 2002. There is cheesy background music, and there is not much happening.
I do like the scene where he punshes the girls in bed with a baseball bat, the way the bounse up and down after he hit them, and also the little we see from the courtroom, but thats about it.
This gets the score 3 out of 10.
