“Resurrection Road” (*1/2 out of four) was a slapdash action thriller set during the Civil War about a group of African-American soldiers (Malcolm Goodwin, Triana Brown, Randall J. Bacon, and others) sent on a suicide mission to infiltrate a Confederate fort and assassinate an evil general (Michael Madsen) but soon find they are being overtaken by a dark and evil spirit that is attempting to kill them all. Lackluster mix of historical melodrama and horror themes. Of note solely for being Madsen’s final film but this clunker was unlikely to “resurrect” his career.
