Deadfall is well above your average horror movie that you'll see on the video store shelves. It's obviously a tribute to Raimi's original Evil Dead masterpiece. Some might call it a ripoff, but I am positive it's a tribute to the sub-genre. It was made for only $13,000 and shot on 16mm film. It uses imaginative camera work and bargain special effects to get the job done well. I also enjoyed the music score used throughout the movie, it was a droning ambiance of horror recalling the glory days of the late 1980's. It also does not take itself too seriously, check out the TV for outrageous B-Movie clips used in the movie!
I must say I really enjoyed this movie. It was much better than I expected for such a limited budget film. This is how you can make an professional and enjoyable horror film on a micro-budget. This was the first feature directed by Vince Di Meglio. I am impressed enough to highly recommend this to fans of low-budget horror.
