Why exactly did Screwface kill that woman (whatever her name was)?
I mean when he said that he has a message from Tito. Why exactly did he kill her?
shareI mean when he said that he has a message from Tito. Why exactly did he kill her?
shareShe used magic against him.
shareThe woman's name is Martha played by actress Rita Verreos. The Colombian drug lord Tito Barco visits her and asked her to kill Screwface because he is doing evil things against people. She uses a chicken and Screwface's picture as a ritual to put voodoo magic against him, and when Screwface wakes up he senses something is wrong.
You're the garbage man No I just take out the trash
She was sure enuff gorgeous!
shareWas he going to kill Tito too? Because he told her "Him say you meet him in hell". Was he planning to kill him too?
shareThanks. I was wondering who she was myself. She was hot and her nudity was a very pleasant surprise.
Poorly Lived and Poorly Died, Poorly Buried and No One Criedshare
In what way did she use magic against him? How would this harm Screwface had succeed in her plan?
shareShe, not he. You can clearly see her performing a ritual against him, and he wakes up, aware of it.
He is a deeply sociopathic and paranoid criminal deeply rooted in the culture he grew up in. He is shown exhibiting a reliance on ritualistic behavioir himself.
Whether her magic is real or not, within the movie he experiences it as an attack on himself, and reacts accordingly. In that life it doesn't pay to let detractors roam free.
Why did this question have to be asked? Do people not watch what happens in films, or are they unable to read a character that comes from a completely different cultural and ideological frame of reference?
All of this seems obvious just from watching the movie.
Exactly. He considered this a threat and acted accordingly.
sharethat whole plotline with the voodoo priestess or whatever was so silly, and underdeveloped, it was like "oh alright, we have to include some voodoo magic *beep* so there you go"
shareThis isn't random as it might appear to someone. Barco was Latin and Santeria is very popular, and even more so back then. Screwface used voodoo magic as a way to control his people. Something that happened for real on another Caribbean island, Haiti. It worked for the dictator, Papa Doc Duvalier (though he himself did nit believe in the practice).
So when fighting Screwface, Barco thought he could fight voodoo with voodoo.
Terrible things Lawrence. You've done terrible things.
yeah i just watched that part where she did the voodoo spell with the chicken in the first 24 minutes of the movie.
Weirdest thing to put in a Steven Seagal movie. Really felt out of place to have that crap in even if it is a Seagal movie.
if i want to sit through a voodoo horror movie Ill go watch the Martin Sheen Believers movie or something
