aussiedexter Is it a comedy horror? No. It's not Scary Movie spoofy fun or Shaun of the Dead laugh-out-loud, and it's not Exorcist scary, but is it a satirical slasher? You bet...Rented it last night (in the new releases section, next to Queen Sized, chubby girl-spolitation film!), and sat through it with a couple of mates, some ice cold beers and a suitably cheesy pizza.To anyone who can't work out what a satirical slasher is, then think of it as a low budget illegitimate child of Starship Troopers and Friday the 13th. Starship's played-straight satirical edge with Friday's fun deaths(?!).Production values are OK for a low budget film, but the sound design and score/soundtrack were top notch. Don't want to spoil any of it, but how can you spoil a slasher film which plays by the rules? there's always going to be plenty of deaths and a twist you can see coming from half-way through... albeit slightly more twisting than I'd thought.Didn't have time to check out the directors commentary, but the DVD extras are pretty cool. Some behind-the-scenes of the low budget gory effects, THE FULL UNCUT SHOWER SCENE!!!!!, a making-of EPK-style thing. The filmmakers don't come across egotistical nonces who think they've made a blockbuster, which is nice to see.In the end, I was very happy I went tracked it down and rented it. The more of these original little gems we get, hopefully the less Hollywood remakes will happen! can but wish...
Rooksy This small gem of a film goes to show what can be achieved with a lot of talent, imagination and determination and without any major backing.It is blatantly a B-movie and without of the post-modern cleverness of some current horrors, it goes back to basics in terms of T&A and violence. The story is a standard revenge plot but bombs along with some neat twists and turns backed by some neat editing, great gore and SFX and a killer sound-track of metal and rawk! The shower scene is so totally gratuitous it will have you laughing and the kills come frequently enough that you'll be entertained, but varied enough that you are never bored.The cricket theme is really just an excuse to use every cricketing implement as a murder weapon, so don't worry if you're not a sports fan, as long as you are a horror fan you won't be disappointed.I'd love to see what the husband and wife director/producer team can do with a real budget next time out, but kudos to them for getting up off their backsides, working for years and producing something this good and this fun.I saw this at the 'night of horror' festival in Sydney, but I hear that it has got DVD distribution in UK, Oz and US so support low-budget film making and buy/rent it!
kosmasp This is a B-movie or even a C-movie if you will. I watched it at the Frightfest in London, were the "stars" of the movie, who also produced/edited/directed and what not the movie, held a Q&A after the movie. They were more than likable and at least as crazy as they were portrayed in the movie ... just kidding, of course.If you look for some nice "killings" in movies (as I believe anyone is who watches Jason movies for example) and don't mind the low production value of the movie, than you might have a fun time with this film. Acting wise you shouldn't expect anything either. But the movie knows what it is and it never tries to fool you into thinking it is something fancy or convince you that the actors actually can act. It's low-to-no budget with some nice (make-up)effects. If you're "down with that", than go ahead and watch (but don't say, I didn't warn you!)
clements123 I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer was one of the best films at this years fright-fest, From the outset this film was great the story kept you hooked trying to figure out how the killer would kill some one with in geniuses use of cricket equipment and a awesome twists and comedy scenes (eye poke scene) awesome and witty!! and the twist at the end was just great around this film rules a truly great film a must watch if you love comedy horror. i think Stacey Edmonds and Doug Turner have made a awesome film with awesome effects great story and a around terrific film, these two Ozzy director have a lot of potential to become great horror/ comedy horror directors and they really got to make a sequel to I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer!.Pete
