Review of Brute Corps

Brute Corps (1971)

"Brute Corps" was never released on videotape, and it was only recently that it was released on DVD. Seeing it, I can understand why it took so long for it to be released for home viewing. I can't understand why Code Red DVD thought there was an audience for it. It is an extremely cheap affair, for one thing. It looks like there was very little money available for props, actors, and set decoration. As well, there is very little action executed during its running time. For the remaining running time, almost NOTHING of interest happens. In fact, there is a weird feeling throughout that the filmmakers were making it up as they were filming. I rented this movie because Alex Rocco was in it, and while he usually adds life to a movie, here he seems utterly helpless and lifeless. Even if you're a die hard grindhouse fan, odds are you will fall asleep way before the movie ends.
