 Supernatural thrillerAug 08, 2008
By MyrnaLynne
This New Zealand-made film is quite different and original, about an American tattoo artist who becomes involved with a supernatural spirit related to Samoan tattoing and Somoan culture, and has to figure out what is going on and try to set things right (before anybody else dies). The acting, the cinematography, and the filmmaking are very high quality for a low budget independent type picture. There is a chilling 'backstory' of Jake's childhood that set him on his course as a globe trotting tattoo artist, collecting designs from other cultures, but the main action is set in Singapore and then mostly in New Zealand. There is a certain ick factor with the victims' inky deaths, but I wouldn't really call this a horror film, but more of a mysterious scary thriller. The action in the film makes sense within the culture of the story and there is a satisfactory resolution to things. The DVD 'extra stuff' is also very interesting. The New Zealand Somoans were so pleased with how their culture was being presented, they made Jason Behr and director Peter Burger honorary chiefs and they show some of that. There is a narrative commentary of the film with Jason Behr and the director.

The TattooistAug 08, 2008
By M. Deaguero
"movie madness woman"
I was not sure what to expect, Since there were no reviews of this movie in the U.S, I am a Jason Behr fan so I relied on the information on his fan sites and from other fans that had already seen the movie. I thought it was a surprisingly and welcome, change to the usual blood and guts thriller movies in the U.S, It had imagination and uniqueness that we as americans have lost, its always about bigger and better explosions and CGI effects, this movie was well written and held your attention dispite that it was a low budget film, I never really felt that during the film, Jasons character had depth and seemed very real. I especially enjoyed the cultural aspect of the film, I learned a lot about New Zealand, I did not know before, and about the Samoan tattoo legends. Relying on your imagination gives your more possiblities then just knowing whats going to happen and then waiting to see how they planned on CGI'ing it to death. All in all this was a refreshing piece of entertainment, and purhaps I am a little bias since I have enjoyed Jason Behr's character as Max Evans in Roswell prior. I would recommend this movie to anyone that wants to see real acting, not just CGI animation and unbelievable stunts that no real human was ever attempt. ! Enjoy

TattooistJul 12, 2008
By Robert L. Terry
"horror hound"
Jason Behr, who first came to my attention in the excellent werewolf movie 'Skinwalkers", is just as compelling in this very spooky thriller. This film was totally engaging and never thew me out of the story with bad acting, cinamatography, or irrevelance. As a long term fan of the thriller/horror genre it was great finding a film that I can watch again, and had what I found to be a unique and interesting story-line and cast. This is a definate keeper and not because of the brief shot of the back of Jason Behr's character standing nude before a huge picture glass window in Singapore.

Outstanding, particularly for fans of PolynesiaJun 24, 2009
By The Tao of Netflix
This was an interesting movie. An American tattoo artist finds himself intrigued by the Somoan art of tattoing, and along the way finds himself, and his tattooed customers, the grim focus of a spiteful spirit. I highly enjoyed this movie, but must caveat that I'm completely enthralled by all things Polynesia, so I am probably very forgiving of any negative elements of the movie. Polynesia notwithstanding, the story was creative, and certainly a break from normal American horror fare. Good (enough) acting, strong production values and interesting scenery make this a highly recommended film.
