But it's been so long since I've seen Bad Day that I couldn't remember how ambiguous Tracey's character was before his mission / motivation is revealed. <BR/><BR/>Cheers<BR/><BR/>KeithK H Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12032330558218087354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1802467913862929609.post-86865164040826216122009-01-20T20:16:00.000+00:002009-01-20T20:16:00.000+00:00Don`t know if you`ve seen it or not, but I`d say B...Don`t know if you`ve seen it or not, but I`d say BAD DAY AT BLACK ROCK was a huge influence on this film. The protagonist of each is physically challenged in some way, the small, unwelcoming town hides a dark secret...No doubt SEWER RATS takes the sleaze potential and runs with it but the similarities are pretty striking. Good stuff here as usual.<BR/><BR/>AndrewAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1802467913862929609.post-9680248005742210262009-01-17T23:24:00.000+00:002009-01-17T23:24:00.000+00:00I wouldn't say it's Buio Omega scuzzy/sleazy, thou...I wouldn't say it's Buio Omega scuzzy/sleazy, though it a low budget production where the dominant colour is a drab brown and everyone looks as though they could do with having a bath. It could work with Buio Omega, though I'd say Cut Throats Nine might be a better choice.<BR/><BR/>Genre wise, it's primarily a drama, I guess, with intermittent moments of action. Besides the spaghetti westerns I mentioned, another reference point might be L'ULtima chance.<BR/><BR/>Hope this helpsK H Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12032330558218087354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1802467913862929609.post-68376051750319944892009-01-17T22:59:00.000+00:002009-01-17T22:59:00.000+00:00as always keith, you introduce me to new stuff- I ...as always keith, you introduce me to new stuff- I know we are taking a similar journey through films but the stuff you write has shown me loads.<BR/><BR/>Again, though I have a quick question- genre wise where does this fit? and you mention scuzziness, is that buio omega type scuzziness? and would the two work together as a double bill? <BR/><BR/>you certainl wetted the appitite here but just curious mate.Nigel Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01928346913206094978noreply@blogger.com
