Movie Info

Though once an average wizard's apprentice, the evil sovereign known only as "The Presence" has the distinct quality of having gained the hatred of heaven and hell alike. Cast aside to rule a bizarre alternate dimension filled with unending violence and bloodshed, those unfortunate to live under his command hire Alison, an assassin, to hunt and destroy him. Soon after her mission begins, Alison finds herself haunted by ghastly visions of death, destruction, and mass chaos. Ice From the Sun was

A furiously pointless punk-gore loogie that resets the bar on how wretched an amateur indulgence can be and still garner public screen time merely on the impression of being 'transgressive.'

...shows an admirable inventiveness while working on a shoestring, but raucous technique and repulsive images do not make for praiseworthy entertainment.

Here and there one can detect the slightest vestiges of creative fancy peeking through the rubble of horrific brutality, gimmicky, and din.

Audience Reviews for Ice From the Sun

I haven't seen this one in a while, but from what I remember I was really very impressed. The low budget shows, but that just makes it all the more amazing. Gory, surreal with only a slight amount of pretentiousness. I knew when I saw this, Stanze was a filmmaker to look out for and except for one stinker, I've consistently liked his output.

[size=5][font=Times New Roman]The actor playing the heroine was not ready for the kind of role this could have been. She definitely has potential, but it's still under the surface as of this production. Other than that one shortfall, I thoroughly enjoyed the rest of it. Some things were cliche & cheap, but no more so than in most horror films commonly seen as "great". The rest of the acting was so much better than the heroine, that I'm not entirely convinced it wasn't deliberate. It should have been avoided either way, but at least if it was deliberate, there might as yet be some salvagable "message" to be translated from it. I don't get it if there is, but to each their own. The actress may be very good by now, I don't know - she definitely has the passion for it when she wants to, but it wasn't put to good use in this production.[/font][/size]
