BRAWL IN CELL BLOCK 99 (full review at The Reel Word)

S. Craig Zahler’s second movie Brawl In Cell Block 99, like his intense debut Bone Tomahawk, bypasses Australian cinemas and arrives direct-to-dvd on 31 January. But be under no misapprehension about its quality. Cell Block is a blisteringly violent prison movie, and its tough guy sensibility has swaggered right out of the 1970s to sock you square on the jaw.

Bradley Thomas (Vince Vaughn) is laid off from his tow-truck driver job. His marriage to wife Lauren (Jennifer Carpenter) is under strain, and he finds himself with little other option than to become a drug runner for local dealer Gil (Marc Blukas). As can be deduced from the title of the movie, things do not go well and Bradley finds himself in the clink. On his first day inside, rival drug dealer Eleazar (Dion Mucciacito) contacts him to offer a terrifying ultimatum. In order to save Lauren and their child he must kill a fellow inmate.
