Deadly Games (1982)
"It's an incredible feeling, you know? You hold someone's life in your hands, and because you choose... the life passes out of them. Now there's a game again. With winners and losers."
#deadly games#1982#slasher film#american cinema#scott mansfield#jo ann harris#alexandra morgan#sam groom#steve railsback#saul sindell#dick butkus#denise galik#christine l. tudor#robin hoff#jere rae mansfield#colleen camp#june lockhart#william patrick johnson#modest indie sort of slasher that's less about slashing and more about the sickly deterioration of small town suburban america after#the vietnam war. shot in late 79 and early 80 this suffered the fate of many a low budget horror‚ being sold to a distributor that tinkered#with the film and ballsed up the cinema release. eventually director Mansfield got so fed up he bought the film back and set up his own#home video label to release it and other such poorly maligned indie projects. having learnt all this (an excellent interview with jere rae#mansfield on the arrow disc) it explains some of the weaknesses in the film; those non director mandated cuts and edits are#presumably responsible for the somewhat confused plot and characters who appear and disappear without warning (Jere confirms in the#interview that her character is killed‚ but the footage was completely removed). a very good looking film (beautifully shot and lit) but#hampered by those edits which cloud the sharper more compelling aspects of the character building. regardless the cast do well; Railsback#is great when he's doing less (just stalking around looking sinister) but goes a bit too big whenever he has to have a coughing fit or pal#around with Groom. Harris does well to keep her endlessly chattering protagonist likable even when talking all through a monster movie (an#unforgivable crime in the Mariocki handbook of good date etiquette)

FROM THE UK82-CD ARCHIVES -- THE VARUKERS: A HISTORY.
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on the "Deadly Games" VARUKERS CD compilation (Abstract Sounds, c. 1994), plus added CD liner notes elaborating on the history of the band.
"We don't normally post CDs, but we were unable to source photos of the original vinyl version of the release from 1989, and the liner notes are interesting."

3615 Code Pére Noel (A.k.a. Game Over, or Deadly Games) (1989)
A home invader attacks a young boy with the house rigged with gadgets.
The lead actors carried the drama well, particularly the main antagonist who got very few lines but still maintained several character affectations, and the young boy who even got to display a fair bit of emotion. The traps were interesting enough too and it’s always satisfying when a few aren’t pulled off quite as meant and gives them some realism.
It’s a little too bizarre than a child with any toys he wants can end up putting time into learning skills that are actively useful, including some weapons training. Most of the other characters were too useless, some even being irrelevant because the house is so remote, although the ineptitude of the police came as no surprise. The sub-plot with the friend should have had more connection but he leaves and we don’t see him again.
Some of the story got enjoyably dark which sets the film apart from the more comedic tellings of the story, but it also didn’t depend too much on gore. The dog killing was done brutally on screen but the blood was minimal so it was all the more effective. It was also satisfying that the horror wasn’t undermined by an overly happy ending that immediately forgets the trauma of the night.
Occasionally the music was a little too overt and takes one out of the moment but largely it’s effective and enjoyable. It’s easy to compare it to Home Alone (1990) even though it doesn’t get the credit for being a year in advance. The darker tone is more entertaining but makes it less likely to be worth more than one view.
5/10 -Can’t find a better example of average-
