646f9e108c New Orleans has the No. 1 per capita murder rating in the nation. A decade earlier the city was dubbed the &quot;Murder Capital of the Country.&quot; Drugs and violence controlled the streets, taking a toll on the city&#39;s law enforcement, neighborhoods and its people. Illustrating this dark chapter in the city&#39;s history is &quot;Death Toll&quot;. To say Im a huge DMX fan would be a gross understatement. So when I saw a movie starring my man, that appeared to be more drama than action, I had to buy it. I didn&#39;t expect too much, but I also didn&#39;t expect a total piece of garbage.<br/><br/>Im going to be honest with you here…This is one of the worst films I have ever seen. Not THE worst, but definitely somewhere in the top 10. Im actually kind of surprised everyone involved in this project would allow this thing to hit the shelves. Because in all seriousness, I would be ashamed to be associated with this mess.<br/><br/>First of all, DMX and Lou Diamond Phillips have no business being the first credited actors, and no business being on the cover of the DVD. Why? They are hardly even a part of the film. X appears 3 or 4 times for less than a minute each time, and Mr Phillips has about the same amount of face time. This is not good,the film really could have used more of them to redeem it somewhat.<br/><br/>There is no story, it jumps all over the place, there was LITERALLY ZERO character development, and the acting was horrific. It was pretty much 80 minutes of people shooting each other full of holes. Other than that, it was a series of images that add up to nothing.<br/><br/>It is not often that I have a tough time finishing a movie. This one nearly got the better of me, but I stuck it out. It really was not to my benefit. I don&#39;t really know what else to say. This film is really bad. I honestly cannot say one good thing about it. That&#39;s frightening. Do not spend money to watch it, seriously.<br/><br/>I really, for the life of me, cant figure out what these people were attempting to accomplish here. Regardless of what that may be, they failed miserably. I don&#39;t often hand out 1s, but I am obligated to do so in this instance. Very funny, I got this movie by mistake, The clerks (now that is a good movie:)) at the shop accidentally put this DVD in the box of the one I wanted to see. After the first 2 minutes (already realizing it was the wrong movie) I started to believe it was a really really bad porn movie. It wasn&#39;t, just unbelievable bad. period. I tried to watch it just for the fun, but that soon seemed to be impossible. It wasn&#39;t even funny bad. Just bad. Bad bad bad bad bad. Honest i didn&#39;t know this was possible.But it was helpful in a way. Because of the absolute absence of proper lighting and acting for that matter, I know have so much more respect for &#39;normal&#39;movies.
