Film Review – The Factory

FACTORY Mae Whitman

“The Factory” finally finds release after an extended period gathering
dust on a shelf. Filmed in 2008, the production emerges from the wilted
imagination of Dark Castle Productions, home base to such features as
the ridiculous “Orphan” and “The Apparition,” one of 2012’s biggest box

isn’t much of a statement, but rarely has an exploitation thriller
repulsed in a manner that seems entirely avoidable. Grotesquely
misguided and conceived, “The Factory” asks viewers to sit patiently
while all manner of ugliness is trotted out for the screen, chasing
horror and procedural trends that are wildly out of date in 2013.

ugliness, which would’ve registered just as numbingly five years ago. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
