Movie Review: Red Krokodil: Director’s Cut is a Nightmarish Decent into Self Inflicted Hell!
Red Krokodil tells the tale of a man hopelessly addicted to a drug that causes him to fall into physical decay in a tiny apartment located within a post-apocalyptic city. His mental state begins to fall to hell in a hand basket as well as he begins to have strange hallucinations of a rabbit headed interloper…then the nightmares become worse, and so does reality! What’s good about Red Krokodil? Well for starters, the effects utilized to show our protagonist’s rotting away are really well done. There’s plenty of weeping sores, gaping holes, and bodily fluids to keep the gore hounds well fed. The fantasy elements presented featuring rabbit masks, strange openings within the apartment, peering disembodied eyes et. al. were really well done as well, and made the piece more of a fever dream than just the drug induced nightmare it could have been…in other words, this ain’t just a body horror flick creeps (and the allegories to war both
