Four hookers - Justine (Katelyn Marie Marshall), Destinee (Jennice
Carter), Cinnamon (Kasey Williams) and their ringleader Rosetta (Selene
Beretta) - decide to raid their pimp's (Chris Davis) place the night he's
supposed to make a very big deal. Against all odds, our heroines manage to
overcome their adversaries despite being outnumbered, with only Cinnamon
taking a bullet to the belly. Rosetta proves to be a sadistic bitch in
this raid, slitting the throat of pretty much everybody to find out where
the money is (big deal = big money, right?) and just keeping one guy (J.
Scott Green) alive, to take with them to their hideout in a cabin in the
middle of nowhere. There, Rosetta tortures the living shit out of the guy,
without getting anything out of him other than that he claims to be the
Antichrist (as in, Son of Satan) - which of course nobody really believes
until Cinnamon dies and comes back as a demon, who doesn't take long to
kill Destinee as well. Justine panicks and wants to make a getaway, but
Rosetta takes a much more practical approach, figuring making a deal with
the Devil, or at least his sone, might have its unbeatable perks. So
rather than kill the Antichrist, she becomes his ally, even his lover -
but is somewhat dissapointed that he's not really good at doing what he
does (e.g. his power to move objects by willpower really suck, and his
demon-creating talents work only under torture). Justine on the other hand
is really freaked out by all of this, and she's desparate to make a
getaway, even if it means cutting down demons and humans alike. Then
though she learns what the Antichrist and Rosetta are planning, to prevent
the birth of the new Messiah, and now she knows she has to act, because
nobody will believe this crazy-ass story and act in her place ... Hell
Fire is a mad mad mad mad mad and quite a bit insane movie, there are
no two ways about it - but what sets this movie apart from almost other of
its ilk, it's also pretty well written. Sure, there's violence to boot,
and sure, this movie goes overboard in terms of grotesque imagery quite
frequently, and believability is really strained to breaking point - but
the whole thing is held together by a very strong narrative framework and
with plenty of self-irony. A dynamic directorial effort though doesn't
hurt either, neither do very solid central performances. And quite a few
gore scenes, many of them executed with quite a bit of inventiveness,
don't hurt one bit either, naturally. Now sure, this is not your
middle-of-the-road movie, not even middle-of-the-road horror, but if you
like your blood and guts with an ironic storyline on the side, then you have
to watch this!
