I bought this movie then turned it in to a used dvd/cd exchange the following week...I was so dissapointed! In the film, the director, the actors, the script---Just dissapointed. I am a fan of indie films, and a film of urban films, however this is just a sad rip off of scream and I emphasize sad!!! And this trick that the studio plays on buyers placing Mack 10 and Bizzy Bone's names on the cover as leads when neither one of them have more than a few minutes of sceene time is unfair and missleading. If I were one of the true leading actors who starred in this film I would feel let down by this. Devoting much of your time to a project then getting pushed aside because you dont have a recognizable name?!?! Atleast they can say starring yadda yadda yadda with appearances by Mack 10 and Bizzy Bone. And the stars of the film from what I can remember gave dissmal performances. The main guy (corn rows, lightskin) was o.k. Nothing memorable. He's kinda pretty boyish but not a great performer nor believable. The leader of the opposing gang (tall, lrg frame, original suspect) was awful! Slured speach, needs acting lessons desperately. Bottom line- THIS FILM IS A JOKE! Not a funny one! I'm dissapointed in Tim Folsome! Maybe he was behind on his rent or something and needed money. Thats what it seemed like to me. That he threw anything into the market just to get paid! Shame on him!!!!

This film is created by Timothy Wayne Folsome the same guy who made Jacked Up, so I wasn't expecting top quality material. But the film for being low budget was very good. Folsome can really make low budget films work. As for Bizzy Bone & Mack 10 is concerned, I don't wanna give anything away so I'll just say this, There names are just to sell film, they don't have major or big roles in the film.

Man this is some fun modern black exploitation and I must say I have never seen anything like it. I like this movie for a lot of resions, great dialog, great cast and for real looking settings. I only wish we would have had the token white hottie so the bad black girls could have picked on her skinny butt till she got her turn at the slasher's blade. The folks who are picken on this film must not like slasher film's.
I am telling you I have set threw way to many slasher flicks and this one is better then 50% of them any day of the week.
This is not Menace 2 Society people. This is trash talken thugs and one dude trying to make it out of the ghetto, oh that does sound familiar ..
any way good stuff, do not miss it.

The Movie isnt that good to behonest its quite horrific but its a who dun it mystery and all those whho have read my other reviews , you knwo why i dont like this movie , I love the killin gbut the killers of the mursers are brouohght outnin the first few scenes , They try to trick you but it blows up in there faces , PS: -10 . But get it for the collection of who dun mysteries like i did.

Cutthroat Alley is a decent film from one of the best independent directors of today (Timothy Wayne Forsome), I love his films, because of the realness and similar subjects of the "Ghetto", surrondings. Bizzy Bone is in a scene and so is the "Crazy Thug" Mack 10, but the lead actor in the film is awesome, If I was you I would get it if you are a true Timothy fan or just plain indies flim fan.

The movie was great. I rented it yesterday and found it fun. It's an urban horror film with a twist. I recommend this film.

This movie is O.K. Bizzy doesn't come out for to long but, it still has a good story line and will have you guessing to the very last moment!

THIS FILM IS LIKE A CROSS BETWEEN "SCREAM" AND THE MOVIE "BOYZ IN THA HOOD". I THOUGHT THE PLOT WAS WELL THOUGHT OUT AND THE CHARACTERS IN THE MOVIE WAS REALLY BELIEVABLE. I ENJOYED THE WRITER-DIRECTOR OF THE FILM (TIMOTHY WAYNE FOLSOM) PREVIOUS FILM "UNINVITED GUEST" WHICH STARED MEKI PHIFER AND NEEDLESS TO SAY I HAD HIGH EXPECTATIONS FOR "CUTTHOAT ALLEY". ALTHOUGH THE ACTORS WHO PROTRAYED THE CHARACTERS "JACOBS" AND "BONES" ARE VIRTUALLY UNKNOWNS, ALL THE ACTORS IN FILM HAD GREAT PERFORMANCE AND YOU WILL DEFINITELY SEE THEM ALL AGAIN!!! THE MOVIE WILL ACTUALLY HAVE YOU GUESSING TO THE VERY END AND YOU DEFINITELY WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED WITH THE FINALE. THIS IS REALLY A CAN'T MISS MOVIE AND WHEN YOU RENT OR PURCHASE THE DVD YOU WILL AT THE VERY LEAST BE ENTERTAINED!!!

rent this movie first, bizzy bone was only in the first scene, mack 10 was only in 1 sceene also. It was okay
