Put It In Boy!!!
by Brian Lueth (Chicago, IL United States)
What exactly is a header, you ask? Well, you'll just have to wait for the DVD. Trust me...it's just plumb wrong.
Header is a really cool little low budget film that proves indie filmmakers need not stoop to slapstick or flatulence jokes due to budgetary constraints. A tense, disturbing film can be made for next to no money as long as the filmmakers are dedicated. Header is one of those films that force you to look at other low budget outings and ask yourself if they gave you their all. Course, it also helps to be working from a story written by the Devil himself, Ed Lee.
Naturally, there's going to be small "issues" on a film this size, as there are on ANY low budget film, that some may find disagreeable. Personally, I thought the lighting, camera work and editing could have been better but when you consider that the same man directed, shot and edited this film you just gotta admire his cast iron stones.
While most indie films are hit or miss when it comes to acting, this was actually quite good. The best darn performance was given by old D. Mullaney who played Grandpap Jake. That old coot was hilarious and vile. Check this out!
2/5
Not up to Snuff
by MindGrinder
Read a lot of hype about this movie. Kudos, to all the reviewers that kept a Header a secret although it doesn't take much a imagination to know what it is.
I followed Edward Lee through the Splatterpunk days and his stories were a notch twisted more than the rest. I do encourage any gorehound and those with a taste of the macabre to go read his books\stories. You can create imagines for more dark in your head than this movie could ever portray using Lee's words alone.
If you saw Martyr's, Inside, Frontiers or even Ichi then you can forget to be disturbed by this film. Even more mainstream films like the TCM remake is far more brutal. For those wanting to grab this because of Jack Ketchum's name on it and are expecting a Girl Next Door type of quality.........forget it.
The movie isn't bad for what it is. A low budget red neck film. The acting is above average, the script is quite good and the editing and camera work are fluid and crisp. The plot moved at a good pace and there was a great build up and end to the movie.
But if you want gore and disturbing, this lost its edge real quick. Perhaps I am too jaded.......but after the 3rd header it's just not shocking (wasnt the first time either) anymore and got a little boring.
5/5
What a great movie
by J. Copeland (Korea)
Great movie. Grandpappy is hilarious, a great horror character.
I didn't find it especially gory, but the subject matter is indeed sick. Just a great horror/black comedy.
1/5
Pointless, scare-less punchline to a bad joke
by chance725 (brooklyn, ny)
This movie only exists to serve as the feeble punchline to the unfunny joke, "What's a header?" Even after the dim ATF hero has seen two women's bodies with holes drilled into their brains and semen dripping out, he's still desperately trying to find someone who can explain to him what a "header" is. Unfortunately, we in the audience find out long before he does - which is typical of this movie, in which there is NO suspense. No terror either - we don't care about any of the anonymous victims who get "headered", so the indignities visited on their bodies are just gross/disgusting, not frightening. The writing - and the delivery of the terrible writing by the decent actors - is a mess. Many scenes of this movie are so dimly lit that you can barely make out what's happening (nor would you care, if you could.) If you get off on dead-baby jokes, you might find this movie fitfully amusing - otherwise, steer clear.
4/5
So what exactly is a "header"?
by S. Boone (Louisville, KY)
Ah, I can't tell you what a header is, because if you're interested in this film, you'll have to see yourself. But when you find out, guaranteed you will be repulsed, BIG time. If not, then please seek help.
We have a Alcohol, Tobacco, & Firearms agent who is working both sides of the law because his wife is sick & her prescriptions cost WAY too much. So of course, because he loves her, Agent Cummings does what he has to do to get by.
We have a man who just got out of jail, & heads on back to live with his legless grandpappy, who makes shoes, and there he finds out what a header is. The most I can tell you is it's "The worst thing someone can do to somebody". At least that's how grandpappy describes it. It's a form of revenge, although how it was determined to be a viable revenge method is beyond me.
Of course, as the films goes on, folks begin to cross paths & greed kicks in and there's lots of header action going on too, so things get rather ugly & there's an ending that's completely unexpected. Kind of "when in Rome, do as the Romans". Ick.
Reminds me a bit of 70's flicks, maybe grindhouse type stuff, with lots of hillbillies & gore & uh, well, sex, I guess you could say, so if you enjoy this type of stuff then you'll probably like it. Probably not recommended for fans of the mainstream, though. 4 out of 5.
