About This Movie

All Good Friends: The Case of the Handless Corpse, while not widely known, really dives into the gritty underbelly of the drug trade. The film's tone is dark and brooding, perfectly capturing the chaos surrounding Martin Johnstone's murder. The pacing feels deliberate, almost methodical, reflecting the drawn-out investigation that spans continents. The practical effects, especially in the crime scenes, are raw and visceral, adding to the unsettling atmosphere. Performances are uneven but compelling, with some actors really immersing themselves in their roles. It’s this blend of real-life crime with a slightly exploitative edge that makes it distinctive. A bit of a hidden gem for those interested in crime dramas that take a more serious approach to storytelling.
