Bingo Hell (2021)
8/10
Fun popcorn flick with a sentimental message
2 October 2021
To the casual viewer this will seem like a dumb movie about a grumpy old lady who hates that her neighborhood has changed. But I ask that you please take a moment to consider that this movie is actually a flash back message for us about how back in the day, neighbors actually knew one another, watched their children grow up together and became families. So when you see how drugs and violence have wrecked your once happy community you become suspicious of anything 'new'.

This is what happens in this film when a fancy new Bingo Hall suddenly appears over night. The neighbors start to investigate exactly what is going on, when large cash prizes are being handed out, but sinister things and ill fates befall anyone who 'wins big'.

Basic truths are explored in this film: Greed, drugs and what does family really mean? And yes okay, some crazy super natural killings and gore are thrown in there, but in the end, we see a community come together to protect their own. I recommend checking this one out as Richard Brake is fun to watch in this over the top performance and Adriana Barraza is super feisty.
