I had hoped at least Michael Madson would make this movie tolerable. I was wrong. His acting parts are minimal, and even then, the script made it impossible for even him to shine. As far as the rest of the cast, the pauses between responses, nearly all of them, makes you think you are watching a production of a high school drama program that is truly lacking in direction. I think all the money for production went into the DVD box cover. That was the best part of this movie. I truly wish there was a governing body that could determine if this stuff is even fit for chargeable public viewing. If it were on Youtube, only the actors and families of those actors would ever even view it. It is that bad.

Just watch the trailer and you can see this is an awful movie. Cheesy sound track, bad acting, and it looks like it was filmed using a digital camera. This "movie" looks like something someone made to put up on YouTube. Micheal Madsens name at the top of the cover...really? He's barely in the movie. Madsen is an accomplished actor. I do hope this movie is not an indication of where his career is headed. If so, he needs to switch managers. The other actors in this movie sound and look as if it's their first time in front of a camera. Reciting lines. Terrible movie. Hardly worth the time it took to write this review. Spend your money on some other form of entertainment, not this drivel.

I rated this 1 star out of 10 because they don't give you the option to choose no stars. Obviously, this movie really wasn't written/produced/directed by someone named Christopher Forbes because no one in their right mind would attach their name to this kind of rubbish. A pre-school class could have made something more entertaining than this. If I could go back in time and had the choice between paying for this movie or throwing $100 down a toilet I would've chose the latter just because I wouldn't want to give the film producers 1 cent of my money for this rubbish. Don't waste your time or money on this "film"!

These so-called western fans need to look to horror fans to find out what it is really like to be a fan of a certain genre. When a horror fan watches a low-budget film, they don't whine about why more money wasn't spent or cry about why their favorite actor wasn't perfect in the film. I'm a true fan of western films and I've viewed a vast number of them, from the classics to new films that have gone direct to video. I always watch a film looking for what's right with the production, and there is a lot right with A COLD DAY IN HELL, notably some solid performances from a number of key players. But the crybabies who wrote these so-called "reviews" don't see this. What I would suggest is that they meet with their mommies to work out some long-buried issues and then write a real piece of criticism. Then, negative or not, it would still be a respectable piece of communication. Otherwise, shut up and eat your gruel.
