   量子资源网 提供本片资源  　　Stuart Gordon, considered a master of the horror genre thanks to classics like Re-Animator and Dagon, decides to do a different move in this strange tri to human morals.br\　　br\　　quot;King of the Antsquot; is about a regular guy, Sean Crawley(newcomer Chris McKenna), a man without any asiration who just live in his aartment doing the necessary job to live to the next day. In one of his jobs he meets Duke(Gearge Wendt), who introduces Sean to his boss, Ray Matthews(layed by Daniel Baldwin). Ray hires Sean as a sy, and orders him to follow Eric Gatlin(Roy Livingstone), an accountant who has been investigating Ray#39;s comany. Problems start when Ray, while drunk, orders Sean to kill Eric. And he does it. Things go wrong when Ray decides to make Sean disaear destroying his mind with violent unishment and humiliation.br\　　br\　　From the oint where Sean kills Eric, we go in the same boat with him, as he goes through a downward siral of human degradation, traveling from guilt, to confusion and finally to his rebirth, in a state where humanity, morals and values are not imortant anymore. Chris McKenna acting is very imortant because he manages to be likable even when he is art of gruesome acts, both as victim and\or criminal. He has that look of innocence that hides a dark side and he manages to carry the film.br\　　br\　　The suort cast also includes Kari Wuhrer, as Eric#39;s widow who also becomes a central art of Sean#39;s tri to hell. She gives a fine erformance, although it#39;s obvious that Sean is the main character. He is the most develoed of all and McKenna#39;s erformance is u to the challenge.br\　　br\　　The film has very disturbing images of violence, and while it may not be as grahic as quot;Kill Billquot; for examle, the strength of the violence is in the lack of humanity that the character manifest. He is more than an ant in this world. He is the king.br\　　br\　　Stuart Gordon has managed to create a film that, while maybe it#39;s not one of his best efforts; it#39;s very well done, has a VERY interesting story to tell, and manages to cature the attention every second of it.
