Record-breaker in horrible production values

American filmmaker Albert Pyun, notoriously known for putting together weirdly stylistic and rarely praised B-movies, is the man behind this record-breaker in horrible production values. The unforgiving lighting, extreme (and annoyingly grainy) close-ups, bad sound production and the scenes' complete lack of space make Crazy Six a terrible ordeal to watch. And that is before even mentioning the plot - if you can spot it. Amazingly, Pyun narrates through lack of dialogue and logical cutting; meaning that the story must be deduced from shots of stuff like brick walls, mist and puppies, as well as music video segments. The patient viewers will ultimately find that the film is about drug addicts and mobsters, ostensibly backdropped against the fall of communism. It's all so low-key that it's barely discernible, but remarkably the ending turns out to have some sort of soul and purpose. Burt Reynolds is the only one who cuts through the crap, and steals every scene he's in with an apt carelessness.

albert pyun strikes again

directed by albert pyun in his inimitably awful but strangely hypnotic style, "crazy six" is yet another jewel in the crown for this decade's upscale hugo haas (jess franco?). "Stylish" overdirection, incoherent plotting, time-outs in the middle of action sequences for eurodisco torch -song performances, all these seem to be signifying traits for our man Pyun. Most interesting is how he always gets top-notch b-movie casts, compared to Wynorski or some of the other video directors. Ice-T, Rob Lowe, Mario Van Peebles, & the very strange Burt Reynolds ain't a bad cast, though they often look a bit confused. Check out "Postmortem", "Mean Guns", & "Omega Doom" for more top-notch Pyun mayhem!
