Intermedio ** DVD Directed By Andy Lauer Written By Kraig X. Wenman Cast Edward Furlong .... Malik Steve Railsback .... Old Man Cerina Vincent .... Gen Amber Benson .... Barbie Callard Harris .... Wes Paul Cram .... Zee Alejandro Samaniego .... Jorge Dean Arevalo .... Al This week, I'm brought to you by everybody out at www.Horrormovies.com, which is, frankly, a treat. Not even THEY have what I'm putting out for you this week, folks, no sir! This is an ADVANCE COPY I'm covering this week. Not even out in stores! What I've got for you this week is Intermedio, a strange little surprise from everybody out at 'The Asylum,' whom I'm convinced is pushing to take over Lions Gate's former slot as the kings of direct-to-video horror by virtue of sheer prolificacy. So what we have here is the tale of the children of drug pushers who take their friends, pack up their car, and head out for the desert to get their hands on some fine long green, and I'm not talking about money, at least not in the direct sense. No, they're going after weed, and what you have to bear in mind about Intermedio is that weed is very, very important to the plot. Weed is actually as important to Intermedio as it was to Snoop Dogg's entire entourage. Frankly, that's kind of scary. So anyway, they're going after the weed that it turns out has a family connection to our two children of drug pushers, and when they get their hands on the chronic, it has a much higher price than they bargained for - I'm not talking five to ten in a Riker's shower stall with a four hundred pound Filipino named Raoul, either. Now, the biggest thing you're going to notice about Intermedio is the quality of the acting. It's literally all over the scale. Steve Railsback, fresh off his stint as Ed Gein in the movie of the same name, projects fantastic menace as the enraged old man. Amber Benson is clearly enjoying herself in the scary / action-packed sections she's given to play. I'm quite upset with the way things end up for Amber in Intermedio. Perhaps her biggest scene involves special effects that look like they were lifted straight out of the wreckage that is any film involving Joe Castro. This saddens and angers me by length. Amber is entirely too good to be subjected to this waste of footage. Although, as good as she is with the scary stuff and the action stuff, any scene featuring Edward Furlong alongside her leaves her obviously nonplussed, and seeming very bored. Not that I blame her. If I had this little Gary Busey-in-training slobbering all over me I would not look all that excited myself. Speaking of which, Eddie. Oh dear sweet mercy, Eddie. You look horrible. You sound as horrible as you look. I hate to kick a man when he's so obviously down, but your acting has not improved one whit from that sad and sorry performance you turned in back in the last place you were seen alive, Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Eddie's biggest problem is that, at least here, he's got one of three basic, selectable moods. Continued On Next Page (Intermedio, Page 2) ...
