Tongue in cheek horror experience
A bunch of tourists are in Chile to party, but when an earthquake hits the city, they need to fight for survival, not only against the natural disaster, but also against criminals who seized the opportunity to escape from prison.I would have rated ‘Aftershock’ higher than 6 of 10 if it wasn’t for the boring first 30 minutes. We get introduced to characters who are so dumb that we really wouldn’t care if they all get buried by the earthquake. This lengthy introduction turns out to be a waste of time, anyway, because some of them are killed off early, while other characters who are more important for the movie get 3 seconds of back story (‘Trust me, I’m a firefighter’).
However, after the quake it gets thrilling, violent, suspenseful with a lot of action, which made the movie worth watching after all. I was not surprised to learn in the making of (watched on DVD) that several of the makers of ‘Aftershock’ have previous experience in comedy rather than horror, it’s the timing of some scenes that tells it. For example the lady who shows the tunnel and then makes the mistake to stick her head first – that’s the ‘oops’ timing of a comedy, not a horror movie. But it works and makes the movie more original. Also the background with a catastrophe that destroys the usual human behaviour so quickly is believable. Not too bad after all, but I recommend to press fast forward at the beginning.
As Trashy As Its Characters
The title “Aftershock” alone will make you expect it is about an earthquake. However, for the first thirty minutes or so, you are only uselessly following a group of three friends and ladies they pick up as they go around Valparaiso, you’d think you were in the wrong movie.However, this earthquake does come when you least expect it. Then, the disaster movie goes into another radically different territory. It becomes a horror film where all the characters get killed off one by one in a way more grisly than the one before. This film does not shy away from blood or bad logic, folks!
With a story line like this, it really caters to a very limited audience – those who like to see the worst of human nature come out after a natural calamity. Fans of gore and sadism though may actually enjoy watching this awful film. I am giving it a star only for its final scene, which was well-shot, even though I totally saw it coming.
