Kuyaqabukela ukuthi uthole ukuguqulelwa kwemibhalo okudlula okubhaliwe, kepha nge Izenzo Ezingahleliwe Zodlame, UJay Baruchel uyakwenza lokho. Ngobuciko be-cinematography obuhle, obulotshwe nguKarim Hussein (I-Hobo ene-Shotgun, Possessor), kanye nesilinganiso sokushaywa ngu-Andrew Gordon Macpherson (I-Ranger, Uhlangothi Olumnyama lweRingi) noWade MacNeil (i-Alexisonfire, ama-Black Lungs), Izenzo Ezingahleliwe Zodlame ukuzindla okunegazi ngesihluku emcimbini wethu wokugubha unya nokuphendula komphakathi ebudloveni njengobuciko.

Ngemuva kokusebenza kwiskripthi iminyaka engaphezu kwengu-8, uBaruchel nombhali-mbhali uJesse Chabot ekugcineni bathole isikhathi esifanele sokwenza kwenzeke. Ungabona ukuthi kungumsebenzi abawuthandayo; iskripthi sinhlanhlathisiwe nokho sicace bha, sihlukanisa ezimpambanweni zodlame lwangempela namasiko we-pop uma kukhulunywa ngezihloko ezinjengobugebengu beqiniso nohlobo olwesabekayo. Lesi yisikhathi sesibili uBaruchel esebenza isethi esihlalweni somqondisi (owokuqala Goon: Okokugcina kwama-Enforcers), Futhi ibeka ithoni ethembisayo yanoma yikuphi ukwesatshiswa okuzayo esikhathini esizayo. 

Kwifilimu, umakhi wencwadi yamahlaya uTodd (Jesse Williams, Cabin ehlathini), umkakhe uKathy (Jordana Brewster, the Ngokushesha Nolaka i-franchise), umsizi u-Aurora (Niamh Wilson), nomngani omkhulu, umnikazi we-Hard Caliber Comics u-Ezra (Baruchel), baqala uhambo lomgwaqo besuka eToronto baya eNew York Comic Con. Izinto ezimbi ziqala ukwenzeka, abantu baqala ukubulawa, futhi ngokushesha kuyacaca ukuthi kukhona umuntu osebenzisa ikhomikhi kaTodd “Slasherman” ukukhuthaza ukubulawa kwabantu.

Ngokubukeka, Izenzo Ezingahleliwe Zodlame kungqongqoza epaki. Ukukhanyisa kufaka isilungiselelo ngasinye ngombala; ishaya ngamathoni acebile, athokomele ngokufana nezigcawu ezigcwele zikaGaspar uNowa. Ama-Steadicams nama-dutch ahambayo ama-angles angena ngaphansi kwesikhumba sakho bese uphoqa ifilimu ukuthi iye phambili; kuzwakala njengesitimela esihambayo esingamiswa, kufana nokubulala uqobo. Isazi samabhayisikobho uKarim Hussein noBaruchel bakhiqize ulimi olubonakalayo oluhluke kakhulu oluhumusha kahle kakhulu. Inamandla athintekayo okungokwayo uqobo. 

Ifilimu ithwebula kahle i-vibe yenoveli yezithombe ngaphandle kokuzwa ikhathuni. Amaphuzu, amasethi, ukukhanyisa, yonke into ihlangana nomdanso onamandla osabambe amandla amaningi. Le filimu inomlingiswa othile obalulekile. 

Futhi uma kukhulunywa ngesihluku esiyinhloko esibonwe kwifilimu, Izenzo Ezingahleliwe Zodlame awudonsi izibhakela. Ubudlova bukhulu, futhi ezinye izibhamu zangishaya ngempela; zazingavuthi futhi zixokozela. Cishe yonke into itholakala ngokusezingeni - i-visceral, iyamangaza, futhi iyahlaba umxhwele. Lokho kusho, akukaze kuzizwe ngokweqile. Kwanele nje ukushisa izithombe ebuchosheni bakho ngaphandle kokuya phezulu-phezulu kube yisilima. Izwakala imangele, futhi izwakala ingokoqobo. 

Ukwenza igatsha kusuka kunoveli yomfanekiso owodwa ka-2010 onegama elifanayo (nguJustin Gray noJimmy Palmiotti), Izenzo Ezingahleliwe Zodlame inwebeka kumqondo wokuqala wamahlaya. Kule filimu, asimboni uTodd njengethalente elisha elinomdlandla, kepha njengombhali ojiyile futhi odiniwe ofuna ukuletha uchungechunge lwakhe ekugcineni ngesihluku, olunegazi ngenkathi egwema umthwalo wendalo yakhe enobudlova. Ekushintsheni okufanayo, isimilo sikaKathy sithatha amandla futhi sinikeze izwi elithobekile nokho elizinikele kwizisulu zenhlekelele "zangempela". Ngokwengeza lobu bukhulu, uBaruchel noChabot bayakwazi ukuvula inkhulumomphendvulwano mayelana nodlame nobuciko, banikeze uhlangothi ngalunye lwempikiswano okufanelekile. 

Le filimu ithwebula lokhu kudunyiswa kobugebengu beqiniso kanye namasiko okubulala ngenkathi iqinisekisa ukuthi kugxilwe hhayi kuphela kumuntu omubi kuphela, kepha nakwizisulu. Kepha akuthathi isandla esithambile lapho sibhekene nokuthanda kwethu ubudlova; iskripthi sibuthuntu lapho siveza zombili izinhlangothi zempikiswano / yokulwa nomthwalo wemfanelo, futhi ngenkathi kusenziwa lokho, kusetshenziswa izindlela ezithile zohlobo olwesabekayo okusondelwana ngalo. 

Ifilimu ivula nge-monologue ngesimo sobuciko nokugxeka kwayo, okuxhunywe kumaphaneli wehlaya lika "Slasherman". Lapho uTodd ezama ukufakazela ukufakwa kwalo mbhalo we-esoteric kumagazini wakhe wokugcina, ubuzwa uKathy ngokuzama ukufaka umuthi omncane noshukela. "Wonke umuntu ufuna ushukela sonke isikhathi", uyabubula, uthukuthele ekhoneni azidonsele kulo. 

Ngesikhathi sesigcawu esifushane somsakazo wezindaba, i-poll yokuhlola ibuza ukuthi "ingabe izwe lethu linodlame kakhulu". UBaruchel ubhekene nalowo mbuzo ngezenzo zobudlova ezibukekayo ezidonsa ifilimu. Lezi zikhathi ze-meta ziqondisa ingxoxo mayelana nokuthanda kwethu amasiko ngesihluku, kanye nokuthambekela kohlobo olwesabekayo lokuchithwa kwegazi okungenangqondo. "Ubuciko bangempela buzalwa ngeqiniso," kusho lo mbhalo, "konke okunye ukushaya indlwabu". Ukuhlekisa okumnandi kwaleso sitatimende akulahlekile kimi njengoba ifilimu yakhela kuvuthondaba lwayo oluchithwe igazi. 

Kukho konke lokhu, ifilimu isebenzisa ubudlova ukuphusha le ndaba. Noma Izenzo Ezingahleliwe Zodlame yifilimu epholishwe kahle, izenzo zayo zodlame ezibhalwe phansi azikhazimuli; ziyaxakaniseka futhi ziyahlanya ngokweqiniso. Ukwethuka njengohlobo oluthile kuvame ukubonwa njengokuzwisa abanye ubuhlungu ngenxa yokuzijabulisa, futhi kukhishwe idemoni ngalokhu. Izenzo Ezingahleliwe Zodlame kuyisabeka esibi kodwa esithobekile esizibonisayo esikhanyisela ukukhazinyuliswa kokubulala kanye ne-mayhem ngenkathi kuvuma ukugxekwa kwako.
