One of the most screwed up, high octane, insane action movies you'll see is "Running Scared". The name says a lot about the character. I'd be scared too if you knew the story. It stars Paul Walker of "The Fast And The Furious" fame. I see Chazz Palminteri in there too. And even Elizabeth Mitchell from "Lost". Oh... and the scientist guy from "Fringe" plays the bad guy mobster at the end. What a role change it was for him. This movie has such a twisted plot that I don't know where to begin. It's like trying to describe "Shoot 'Em Up" with Clive Owen. A neighbor boy steals the gun that a mobster fledgling loses after a botched drug deal, which was used to shoot a dirty cop, and now he has to find the boy to get the gun. The boy shoots his abusive dad with the gun as well. Now this is where it gets really insane. The boy gets lost and ends up kidnapped by some sickos that make really f**ked up porn. They had the kid in a closet suffocating from saran wrap around his head. I don't even wanna know what the medical cutting tools were for. So Walker's character saves the kid and ends up getting the short straw destiny by being thrown to the wolves, the Russian mob. They mess him up pretty bad. By the end he has to get the gun back from a mangy pimp and save the kid yet again. You'll be quite impressed with how raw this movie is. It's in-your-face and takes no prisoners. Kind of a shocker too. I'd like to see more action movies of this caliber in the straight to video arena. Paul Walker made this after "...Furious". Not all good movies reach theaters.
