8/10
UK Action... Fun and In Your face

Warning: Spoilers
Williams is an assassin, Kelso a kick boxer. Together they team up to take on the man who wronged them, crime boss Kincaid. They fight henchmen, they kill henchmen and they shoot henchmen. There is a plot, although that never gets in the way of the often pointless killing of more henchmen.

Did I mention a few people got killed in this? Funny enough after watching it the first time (from a recommendation) I bought the film cheap of Ebay and decided one drunken night to do a drinking game. Every time a henchman with a beanie hat gets killed you take a drink. I lost count at 45. Any more I fear I may have died! Left For Dead is a low budget film. If you take it on those merits it actually ticks all the boxes of films i like... brash, bold, violent, funny, silly and one where 2 hours feels like ten mins.

Okay compare it to Mission Impossible 3 or similar and yes the film will look weak. But as far as cheesy 80's action films go, this isn;t bad at all.

Enjoyable, fun and frivolous this is a film for people who like fun films.
