Guerrilla filmmaking at its most extreme...
“Deadbeat at Dawn,” written, starring, and directed by Jim Van Bebber, is about two rival criminal gangs in Dayton, Ohio — the Ravens and the Spiders. Goose (Van Bebber), leader of the Ravens, is content with his macho swagger, showing off his skill with nunchucks, and stealing motorcycles. His girlfriend, Christy (Megan Murphy), is worried and urges him to leave the gang. Not wanting to lose Christy, Goose agrees.<br /><br />Danny (Paul Harper), leader of the Spiders, isn’t about to accept Goose’s “retirement.” He orders Christy’s murder and makes sure Goose knows who’s responsible. Goose also discovers that the two gangs have called a temporary truce so they can collaborate on an armored car robbery.<br /><br />This cult film is over the top at nearly every turn. The story is familiar but Van Bebber packs it with gruesome special effects and choreographed fights. By shooting much of the film in public places in and around Dayton, often without permission, he gives this low-budget movie fresh locations and the look of a much more expensive feature.<br /><br />Acting is not Shakespearean caliber but the cast make up for it with enthusiasm. Van Bebber comes off best as the conflicted Goose, the kind of dumb bad boy a girl can fall for. He stages and performs his own stunts, many of which are really dangerous, for the sake of exciting moments. He rappels down a three-story parking garage, is dragged by a speeding car next to a brick wall, and jumps onto a moving freight train.<br /><br />The film contains extreme violence, brutality toward women, angry soliloquies, nudity, a body thrown into a trash compactor, a drug-crazed Vietnam vet welding a meat cleaver, decapitation, cocaine sniffing, bitten-off fingers, an open wound being stitched up, and blood spurting out of gunshot wounds. Dialogue is characterized by considerable rough language and macho pronouncements such as “I’m going to pull your eyeballs out of your head and eat ‘em” and “that ain’t nothing compared to the rush you get when you’re killing someone…it’s power.”<br /><br />Photography is very good, with many big scenes covered from multiple angles. Sound on the indoor scenes is echo-y, and several outdoor scenes are dubbed, probably to reduce ambient sound in noisy locales. It’s very difficult to make a feature film, especially one with such a large cast, elaborate fights, car stunts, intense special effects, and diverse locations. An extremely tight budget makes the job exponentially more difficult.<br /><br />Clearly, “Deadbeat at Dawn” was a labor of love for Van Bebber. Though imperfect, the movie is exciting, fast-paced, and involving - traits even mainstream movies sometimes can’t achieve.
