A new terror stalks the residents of the Bronx. Urban legend claims a vicious crack-addicted raccoon nicknamed ‘Red Eye’ was behind a series of gruesome murders in Bronx neighborhood Locust Point. Politically ambitious Deputy Mayor Peter Rabbit sees an opportunity to advance his career, and enlists his cousin and best friend to capture the mutant creature – unaware that two more bloodthirsty “”krackoons”” are lurking in the shadows… Model-actress Cindy Guyer of Psycho Cop and The Mirror has Two Faces returns to cult cinema in this hilarious and gore-soaked gem of DIY filmmaking.
Bloodmarsh Krackoon is the sequel to a film called Krackoon. If you haven’t seen that don’t worry because it is a bonus on this release. Basically we have a story of a boy and his pet rabid raccoon that is having babies that are just as wild all the while we also follow an old mob boss who is faking Alzheimer’s to get out of some stuff he did. These stories of course cross and what we get in between is coons eating people and bronx people doing typical bronx things. So every mob thing you’ve ever heard about this area is being played up with plenty of awful CGI blood spraying that makes you think they used the N64 graphics team to make it.
As bad as things get watching this movie from time to time, I can’t bring myself to hate it. I admire the story in some odd way and I appreciate the effort that went into making something like this on the lower budget I’m sure they had. Some of the characters are good for a laugh and the concept is a funny one, even if it is just a vessel for horrible CGI and puppets on screen. Will you like this movie? Probably not. There might, however, be a chance that you find it fun to watch with a group and laugh at. That is at least something the film has going for it.
