STOIC

Directed by: Uwe Boll
Released: 2009

the second uwe boll film i've seen in the past two weeks.... and once again, it's not total shit. four prisoners share a cell, and three of them end up abusing the fuck out of the fourth, which results in his suicide (sort of). the entire film takes place in the cell, which i really appreciate, because it gives boll less to work with when telling the story... and i've read that most of the dialogue was improvised, which i also like. there's lots of uncomfortable, degrading prison abuse spliced with interrogation interviews of the surviving cellmates... it's all pretty bleak. uwe boll may actually become a capable filmmaker yet, even if he is just a modern day exploitation filmmaker (my opinion). 6/10.
