all good movie inspire some direct to video copycat flick . i be afraid that gladiator wasn not really that good a film and because i hadn not see any movie that have anything remotely resemble anything roman on the new release shelf for month . then i spot full moon late offering and demonicus . i be a fan of full moon puppetmaster series and and blood doll and but have never see one of their non killer puppet film . anyway . demonicus chronicle what happen to a group of camper in the mountain of the alp . one of the camper and james and find a cave with old gladiator artifact and and feel impel to remove a helmet from a corpse and try it on . he become possessed and and and a the demonic gladiator tyrannus and be impel to kill his friend to revive the corpse and who be the real tyrannus . grant and like many full moon film and this have little or no budget . at time and the editing and direction be so amateurish i would swear i be watch the blair witch project . the attempt at chop off of limb and head remind me of a monty python skit . the weapon and although apparently real and look really plastic y. it literally look like this be film by a group of friend with a digital camcorder on a weekend . grant and there nothing wrong with such film making and just do not rent this expect a technical masterpiece . it look like there be attempt at research for the script too and because and even though tyrannus really doesn not act much like a gladiator until the end and at least he speak latin . all trash aside and i actually enjoy this film . not as much a a killer puppet film and perhaps and but full moon still deliver . the only thing that disappoint me be there be no full moon videozone at the end .
