Film Review – Out of Death

“Out of Death” is a nonsensical title for a lazy film, and nobody stops to explain what exactly “Out of Death” means, as the movie is actually quite filled with death. The endeavor is the latest stop on the “Is Bruce Willis okay?” tour of VOD cinema, with the once mighty actor apparently offering the production a single day to complete his work on the picture. And what a day that must’ve been. Making his directorial debut is Mike Burns, who’s previously worked as a music supervisor on these immediately forgettable low-budget offerings, now finally offered a chance to make his own nonsense, with Willis popping up on occasion while an obvious body double does the rest of the work. “Out of Death” hopes to be a scrappy backwoods thriller, but Burns can’t make magic happen, basically reducing the feature to a series of shots of actors running through the woods, periodically stopping for ridiculous exposition dumps and, as the title wrongly states, death.
