Street Trash Rezensionen & Wertungen
- Niztradamus6. Juli 2025Hobo with a shotgun at home. Ironically Hobo with a shotgun was inspired by the original 80s Street Trash. The effects are mostly very obvious, the acting is god awful and the story has more holes than Swiss cheese. Yet it has its moments and will keep you entertained throughout.
- jackmeat17. Dezember 2024My quick rating - 4.5/10. Out of nowhere, the 2024 remake of Street Trash arrived, stirring up feelings of both anticipation and nostalgia. As a huge fan of the original 1987 cult classic, which exuded Troma flair without actually being a Troma production, I had high hopes for this reimagining. The premise remains similar: a group of homeless misfits fights for survival against a sinister plot to exterminate every homeless person in the city. However, the execution in this version leaves much to be desired. One positive aspect is the involvement of Bloody Disgusting in the production, a move that guaranteed some quality gore and practical effects. Indeed, the practical effects here are commendable, providing an old-school charm that horror fans can appreciate. However, the problem lies in the film's overall tone and delivery. The original Street Trash was a chaotic and spontaneous rollercoaster of absurd comedy and over-the-top gore, flowing naturally in a way that felt both anarchic and entertaining. In contrast, Ryan Kruger’s remake struggles to capture that same magic. The comedy and gore, while present, feel overly calculated and forced. It’s as if the film is constantly trying to prove itself rather than letting its absurdity and grotesque elements unfold organically. Kruger’s effort to both emulate and change the original simultaneously results in a tonal mishmash that doesn’t quite hit the mark. Fans of the original will notice attempts to recreate iconic moments and vibes, but they lack the carefree, anarchic energy that made the 1987 version so memorable. Despite its flaws, this rehash has its moments, especially for fans who enjoy practical effects and grimy, gross-out horror. However, it ultimately pales in comparison to the chaotic brilliance of the original.
- Spoons23. November 2024Ryan Kruger’s ambitious reimagining of the 1987 cult classic, set in a dystopian Cape Town of 2050. The story follows Ronald and his homeless companions as they uncover a sinister government plot to eliminate the homeless population with a deadly chemical agent known as “V.” The practical effects are initially impressive, delivering gruesome, ’80s-inspired flesh-melting sequences. However, the same effect is repeated to the point of monotony, removing any sense of shock and making the gore feel tedious rather than impactful. What starts as a visual spectacle quickly becomes stale, robbing the film of its intended edge. The humor also struggles to land. While Kruger aims for a mix of dark comedy and biting satire, the jokes feel forced and lack the sharp wit to carry the tone. It’s reminiscent of Troma films, but without the same level of chaotic charm or irreverent energy that makes those works endearing. Despite its bold visual style and intriguing premise, Street Trash (2024) falls short of delivering a fully satisfying experience. The repetitive gore and uneven humor weigh it down, making it a challenging watch for anyone but diehard fans of splatter cinema. This film will be popular with people who like Society, The Toxic Avenger, and Bad Taste.
