The new part of the 'Judgment Night' franchise is dedicated to the problems of racial discrimination. In the center of the plot - the Mexican married couple Adela (Ana de la Reguera) and Juan (Tenoch Huerta), illegally crossed the border of the United States, ready to start a new happy life in this country. Having got a job on a Texas ranch with Dylan Tucker (Josh Lucas) and a local meat processing plant, and only a little settled down, their first Doomsday comes. Seduced by the annual opportunities to kill, society no longer wants to be limited to one night. A group of Nazis prefer to continue what they started, despite the prohibitions of the authorities.
For 8 years now, since 2013, the creators have been releasing films in this series. Screenwriter James DeMonaco has worked on all of the films. The idea of the film is quite original. Giving a person a chance to kill with impunity is an opportunity to observe what is actually hidden under the 'pretty face of a neighbor'. If in the previous films there was always a clear line between the rich and the poor, then in 'Judgment Night Forever' the rich and the poor are equal in the face of danger, only their nationality is different. The timing was a bit short to properly cover the topic of racial discrimination. The images of the heroes are written very superficially. This is understandable, because the characters change from film to film.
If we talk about the cast, then this is almost a Mexican project with several Hollywood actors of the second or third order. I don't know if the creators wanted to attract any of the big Hollywood stars, but given the modest budget, it is unlikely. The actors look good in the frame, there is no excessive pretense, the dialogues are not bad. The scene is Texas with its arid nature, Mexican culture and cowboys.
The creators claim that this picture will be the last part of the story. The ending is quite natural. Although I would not be surprised if someday it releases some kind of sequel or revival, as is often the case with successful projects. And the 'Judgment Night' project is undoubtedly successful, because with a small budget, it collects a good world box office. It seems to me that realistic horrors, where the main evil is the person himself, is always more terrible, because believing in mysticism is not always easy, but what humanity is sometimes capable of is well known to us from our own history.
'Doomsday Forever' is perhaps one of the best parts of this series. It's difficult to compete with the first film, but the creators did a good job on the last part, both in terms of the plot and in terms of special effects. Those who have not seen a single part can also look, except for a single concept, each part is a separate story.
