REVIEW: When Black Birds Fly
“…Heaven is a beautiful, clean suburban paradise…”
A stark contradiction that sets the tone of this eagerly awaited entry in psychedelic horror animation from my friend and Director - the very unique Jimmy ScreamerClauz.
In 2016, he has brought us this…
To feed our minds on.
Feeding.
The Black Birds.
Fixing…
The broken.
“Nothing should be in pain.”
Caine loves – Don’t be a shithead.
A one child application.
Approved.
In Heaven.
Bit keep them away from the wall…
God is out to lunch…
But he will be back.
And unto them a Son was born…
Marius…
Delivered…
Apple, worm, child.
From sacrifice.
Life lessons…
To become a functioning member of society.
Caine is literally everywhere.
Commenting on everything.
Casting out evil…
Beyond the wall.
Calls to Marius and girlfriend Eden.
Forbidden fruit that needs devouring…
In a technicolour kaleidoscope…
Of good versus evil and deceit.
A creation of pure beauty to find love.
Curves and an opening instead of a protrusion…
More beautiful than God…
Begging to be fucked…
Over…
With jealousy anger and hatred.
Trespassers – cast out…
Fucked like a beast.
Escape leads to loneliness…
One’s own hell…
And on a mission to destroy all that simply cannot be.
As structure, habit and regiment is torn apart.
“Please don’t take my sunshine away.”
As you meet your maker…
In a sacrifice of purest destruction…
That never ends.
“Hail Caine – the way, the truth, the life…”
At a running time of 105 minutes this one draws you in – more so than previous efforts – Where the Dead Go to Die and Reality Bleed-Through (both of which I have previously reviewed and enjoyed).
Black and white contrasts colour. Innocence contrasts corruption.
Always deceitful – like the devil there is an element of deception and irony. Religion questioned and mocked…
Looking for the truth…
And not always what we expect…
Thank God.
Thank Caine.

Star of one of our most popular TV soaps, Emmerdale, Dominic Brunt is known in every household here in the UK. On top of this, he's also forging quite a reputation as one of the best indie horror filmmakers in Britain - his directorial debut feature, Before Dawn, was very well received upon its release in 2013 and more recently his second feature, Bait, has accumulated plenty of critical acclaim worldwide.

Director Uwe Boll shouldn’t need much of an introduction to film fans. Quite the controversial figure, it seems if he’s not making films that divide opinion, he’s pissing off the people that are.
I was privileged enough to speak to Uwe recently and, well, I’ll let you decide if he’s the contentious character you may think he is…

Let’s open with a baffling misconception: Women are new to the filmmaking trenches. What?! Why this fallacy spread, we’ll never understand. How it spread is by omission; and, such seemingly passive silence can be dangerously aggressive.
