100 Tears Storyline

After being accused of crimes he did not commit, a lonely circus performer exacts his revenge on those who unjustly condemned him. The act sparks something inside of him which he cannot stop and now, years later, his inner-demons have truly surfaced. Part urban legend, part tabloid sensationalism… he is now an unstoppable murderous juggernaut, fueled only by hate.—Anonymous

100 Tears Movie Reviews

Many kills, boring plot

This is a pretty average horror/slasher movie. I grant the makers they squeezed in a lot of kills and especially fans of decapitations and guts will like it. The movie is about a serial killer in a clowns outfit who slashes people by the dozen with his hack-axe. Two detectives are on the hunt for the “teardrop killer” who leaves bloody tears behind on the murder scenes and got a back story they slowly unfold. Its like two plots running along each other… Clown slashes people with some entertaining ideas (liked the wheelchair down the stairs shot) and the detectives uncover the story with real bad acting. Basically the movie should have concentrated on the gore because this is where its strong side lies… the acting is real bad, the music is annoying (always the same hardcore techno over the kills and one music sounds a lot like being taken directly out of Hellraiser). The pseudo plot will bore the gore hounds to death and especially fails of bad acting and inconsistency. “100 tears” is rather for the trash/splatter fans but I guess because the director couldn’t decide which way to go this one will soon be forgotten. And BTW… the closing scene sucks and like in many movies made me think they didn’t know how to get out of their scripts mess.

Proves yet again that OTT gore isn’t everything.

Two tabloid reporters, Jennifer Stevenson (Georgia Chris) and Mark Webb (writer/producer Joe Davison) are wanting to be taken seriously as journalists and begin investigating a serial murderer known as “The Teardrop Killer,” who has been hacking up people over a 20 year period but has somehow managed to elude the police all that time by hiding out in an abandoned building’s cellar. Jennifer and Mark piece the clues together, which lead them to a flea-bag circus (which seems to be right in the middle of some junkyard) and revelation that the psycho is actually an obese, jilted clown named Gurdy (Jack Amos) who murdered a few people decades earlier before disappearing. Also disappearing around the same time was Gurdy’s lover Tracey (Leslie Crytzer), who has successfully managed to change her name and live in the same small town along with her and Gurdy’s whorish cutter daughter Christine (Raine Brown) for two decades without being detected. Other characters include a dwarf and bartender who know the clown’s whereabouts and a pair of ineffectual police detectives (Kibwe Dorsey and Rod Grant), as well as various victims (a real estate agent, partying teens, etc.) who show up just long enough to get killed.

This very low-budget film (shot on digital) excels at one thing and one thing only – gore. Heck, during the first fifteen alone the body count has already reached double digits as the clown killer goes around a halfway house hacking up anyone he can get his hands on with a huge meat cleaver. There are cut off limbs, slashings, decapitations, guts spilling out all over the floor, a head getting stomped in and blood literally gushing out all over the place. These scenes are actually pretty entertaining and well done. Unfortunately after the first fifteen minutes of almost non-stop carnage, the film then tries to add the plot and deal more with characters and this is where it starts to come apart. In fact, 100 TEARS seems to falter any time it isn’t being gory. The entire mid-section of the film is slow-moving, tedious and badly written, with uneven performances and a sense of humor primarily centered around farts and bowel movements. The ending is also rather sloppy, and the overdone gore scenes themselves start growing tiresome and monotonous after awhile.

A good point of comparison might be with Peter Jackson’s DEAD ALIVE (aka BRAINDEAD), which has even more gore than this one but also managed to be entertaining and fun when it wasn’t being disgusting. Jackson’s film is also much more clever and inventive when it comes to creating new and original gore scenes, while the kills in this one – bloody as they may be – aren’t particularly clever. Though in this film’s defense, it only had a 75K budget while DEAD ALIVE’s was 3 million, so I guess they did a good job cramming as much blood and gore in as possible. It’s just too bad the other areas of the film aren’t quite as strong. From a technical standpoint (cinematography, score, sound, editing, etc.), it’s pretty uneven, though again not bad for the budget.

So if you’re looking simply for gore and a high body count, then this will satiate your blood lust. However, if you’re looking for a scary or otherwise good horror film, you’ll probably find less to like here.

Slow-moving DTV slasher with plenty of blood and guts.

A huge creepy looking clown Gurdy walks through a halfway house and systematically slaughters at least a dozen people with meatcleaver.The gore flows freely in the first 15 minutes.Two reporters Mark and Jennifer are investigating the legendary ‘Teardrop Killer’,who’s been butchering unsuspecting groups of victims for 20 plus years.”100 Tears” is among the goriest indie slasher movies I have ever seen.I must say that the bodycount is truly high and the killings are over-the-top including several juicy decapitations and dismemberments.The techno score is annoying,the acting is mediocre and the climax is abrupt,but if you enjoy drowning in the sea of blood and guts “100 Tears” can’t be missed.7 out of 10.
