A refreshing return to real slasher movies...

Warning : If you are like some of these reviewers who seem to be fans of these new fangled horror movies which predominantly feature nothing more than men torturing men, this movie is not for you.
I had a blast watching this movie and I noticed it kept the interest of the packed theatre at the Loews on 42nd street. Most seemed to appreciate the originality and humor of this film which is what a "real" slasher movie is all about.
I did find a bit of over-acting by some. Even Jamie Lynn Seigler was not at her best (but she still looked good which is really all that matters in this type of movie).
That girl Andrea Bogart (Hippie Hitchhiker Chick) was a babe. She was a gem and perfect for the part, not to mention extremely hot. I'm surprised I haven't seen her in anything else.
There's one guy that reminds me of a cross between Gary Busey, Anthony Michael Hall and Puck (from the real world)- HA! I hate all of those guys individually, but I found this guy funny and non-irritating for some reason. Probably due to great writing I guess.
I congratulate Lions-Gate for taking a chance on movies like this. The audience who appreciate what "real" slasher movies are all about will probably appreciate this "curve ball" away from the big budgeted mindless garbage that I've seen over the past couple of years. |
