Title: A Waste of Time
Product review: Duller-than-dirt film about a scuba diving serial killer who preys upon young women in Venice as a clean cut news reporter tries to get to the bottom of the whole ordeal. In a word: dry. Very dry. The Monster of Venice AKA The Embalmer has all the stiffness one of those corporate training videos in which the company recruits some employees to act out certain situations in the workplace and how to handle them, only with a vague horror theme. Robotic acting, horrendous dubbing, a complete lack of atmosphere, suspense, excitement, etc. Frankly, a complete waste of time.On a side note, I only checked this movie out because guitar virtuoso Buckethead supposedly uses a sample from it in his song "The Embalmer". For those interested, I actually was not able to locate said sample in this release of the movie. Perhaps I missed it, I certainly will not suffer through this again to find out. Avoid. */****
