Fragment
(2009)
Johnny's comments:
Fragment is about a war photographer who gets hit
in the head by a piece of radioactive shrapnel, which gets embedded in his
brain. A doctor predicts that he has not long to live, so he spends his
last days roaming around Sydney with his camera, while a pretty young girl
films a documentary of his final days. The man has a couple of experiences
where he photographs dead animals that miraculously come back to life.
Meanwhile across town, police shoot dead a particularly nasty serial
killer (boringly titled the DVD Killer. Police should get someone creative
to name these crooks...), where a stash of his snuff films are found. The
photographer moves into a new apartment that may have been inhabited by
someone who is now missing and when he accidentally discovers a bloodied
DVD, it becomes more clear. It's another snuff film from the serial killer
that was filmed in his apartment. Using his trusty camera, he photographs
the girl on the DVD and as before, the woman comes alive. But, so does the
nasty serial killer and guess who wants to keep on killing. So, is the
photographer going completely crazy and imagining this or is this oh so
very real. Imaginative horror thriller that is probably a decent director
away from been superb, but is very watchable (and particularly nasty)
nonetheless.
