Outpost 11

It's a modest budget production but there are some great ideas here, good performances and a tension-inducing sense of claustrophobia. A great example of UK indie genre film-making.

This film should NOT be watched by ANYONE, unless you want to completely waste 1 1/2 hours of your life. Put some fresh paint on the wall and watch that dry instead. It'll be more interesting, and at least the end result will be more fulfilling. Fair play to the actors, they did a good job with the script they were given, but just because some psychotropic drug - or whatever - was responsible for the characters going crazy, it doesn't mean that the storyline should make no sense. I was just very disappointed with this film and don't know why it was even made. Please! Will somebody buy me a load of paint. I need some excitement in my life.

After a very stylish and interesting opening credits (which i actually gave the 1 for!) I'm sorry to say that this film is terrible in my opinion. I don't think at any point during the film I had my interest aroused. I kept watching in the hope that it would improve...but it actually got worse! Exploding hares (wtf), spider animation like "morph" from the seventies, a constantly masturbating old soldier (why?)and over the top ham acting from 3 of the 4 main cast members...just plain awful. 90 mins of garbage. If this film had some sort of hidden "meaning" behind it or is meant to make you "think" then I'd love to know what the hell it was supposed to be! Believe me, don't waste your time or your money on renting or buying this.

This film comes with and interesting premise and a somewhat unfairly low rating.

An intriguing disappointment.

So what for? Well a it's stylish, claustrophobic steampunk romp filmed in pretty much 3 rooms, with occasional use of some great outdoor scenery. Alas it's disjointed and doesn't wrap it's self up at all, yet the spirit is there...

Outpost 11 is completely flawed by the final act that makes little sense. It's however far from total rubbish by proxy of it's ambition.

6/10 for weirdo effort

We looked at each other when it was finished & said, "Did that even make sense to you?" The reply was "no." The very last scene rewinds to a scene earlier in the film, but that even made no sense in the grand scheme of it all.

The best parts about it were:

One of the characters is very, very creepy. Luckily, I'm pretty sure he was meant to be. But I'm not sure if, in the 50's, there was really stuff you could inhale while you uh.....had your guy "me time". But what do I know about that sort of stuff. Anyway, it was a bit weird.

Other good aspect was it was a bit steampunk, which I like.

The acting wasn't bad.

After watching a lot of random movies by following others, we have decided that any blurb stating "in a remote, isolated........." means "there are 4 of us who decided to make a movie ourselves with no budget on a swatch of land owned by someone someone knows, because someone has access to some film kit"
