Plot Outline: I liked the atmosphere of the movie a lot. They used a lot of greenscreens and then stained glass and grained film effects to create asurreal feel of the whole movie. That helped a lot with the suspensionof disbelief which, let's face it, it's needed to even watch Snowblind.The plot was pretty weird, in an post-apocalyptic world, with an evil"governor" hiring a gunslinger to kill another gunslinger so he can gethis wife. A surprising move for someone who gets to use an entire armywhenever he feels like it. I watched it, though, because of the saidvisual effects and the obvious effort that went in the film. They lostme when the black guy came out of the snow and then started singing. Ofcourse, that is not characteristic of the film, but the scene justthrew me off completely. The ridiculous gun battles that followedclosed the deal.Bottom line: an interesting experiment in movie making, Snowblind isdistributed freely through Bittorrent in the Vodo network and funded bydonations. As such, it is a decent effort and the makers have obviouslyinvested quite a deal of effort in doing it. However, as entertainmentvalue goes, it is pretty weak.
