Tenement Torrent








Show Spoiler

646f9e108c A South Bronx gang rape and kill the residents of an isolated tenement. The tables turn and the surviving residents viciously despatch the gang. There is a gruesome scene depicting the repeated stabbing of the leader with a TV aerial followed by a lightning strike for good measure.
A drug selling and violent street-gang terrorize the renters of a big trashy apartment-house.
Tenement (1985) <br/><br/>* 1/2 (out of 4)<br/><br/>The landlord of a trashy, rundown apartment complex calls the cops on a gang of thugs living in the basement. At first the people who live inside the apartment think that they&#39;re finally safe but the thugs are released from jail and return to the complex where they begin to rape and murder.<br/><br/>TENEMENT is a cult film from director Roberta Findlay and as you can tell from the story it&#39;s yet another wannabe DEATH WISH film where we see a good group of people coming under attack by maniacs. It should be noted that this film was released the same year as DEATH WISH 3 and it certainly doesn&#39;t live up to the craziness of that movie.<br/><br/>The film has gained a cult following over the years due to some of its graphic violence, which originally earned the film a X-rating. If you&#39;re familiar with the work of Findlay then you know she goes all out or at least pushes the boundaries of good taste. That certainly continues here as there are a lot of throat rippings and blood flowing around. There&#39;s one very memorable and painful shot of a man raping a woman and what happens to him is quite brutal.<br/><br/>The problem I had with the film is that there&#39;s just nothing fresh or original here and in all honesty the film never really has much energy to it. The film is pretty boring at times and especially because the &quot;gang&quot; and the &quot;normal&quot; people are all rather uninteresting and you simply don&#39;t care about any of them. At just 94 minutes the film really drags in spots and outside the violence there&#39;s really not too much here.
I bought this DVD last Friday because I was looking for some early 80&#39;s, politically incorrect, sex&#39;n violence balance to the banality of to-days oh-so-correct trash that Hollywood spews out. As I scanned the shelves for something that would scream Independence, I came across &#39;The Tenament&#39;.<br/><br/>You usually cannot go by what the cover says. They can&#39;t ALL be the &#39;most shocking&#39;, &#39;depraved&#39;, &#39;explicit&#39;, &#39;gut wrenching&#39;, &#39;gory&#39;, &#39;perverted&#39;…well, you get the picture.<br/><br/>As I picked up &#39;The Tenament&#39;, I hoped the cover-art hype would be, for once, right on. The claim was it got an X certificate on release and it wasn&#39;t because it was a porno in drag! My wife saw the cover and excused herself. She knew I was on an odyssey to combat the effects of the sanitized hogwash we bathe in daily and was not quite ready to cleanse her brain. She has a much higher tolerance, being a woman.<br/><br/>I sat down with a very nice glass of chardonnay, dimmed the lights and fired up the DVD…..<br/><br/>I was in luck! This was definitely a find - a throwback to the days when you &#39;made a statement&#39;. Sleezy sex, violence, gore, disco music, electrocution, did I say Gore?, slashings, drug use and other assorted bad stuff. They don&#39;t make &#39;em like this anymore! This is definitely an NC-17 or &#39;X&#39; for real.<br/><br/>Talking of &#39;X&#39;, I really miss the category. I don&#39;t mind the porn industry but I&#39;m ticked of they hi-jacked my favorite movie certificate. The Should have used &#39;P&#39; (for Porn) or &#39;PPP&#39;.<br/><br/>Afterwards I watched the directer interview. Roberta gave some very interesting anecdotes that indicated life during filming was just as bizarre.<br/><br/>Well, I&#39;m re-balanced and ready to absorb more of the bland, bleached offal being forced on me by the media moguls.<br/><br/>Highly recommended. Watch the extras on the DVD. Not a date movie. Has multiple viewing potential.
