Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Bezenby Although I've seen this referred to as being similar to Friday the 13th, this film really reminded me of The Mutilator - right down to the amount of victims and the middle aged murderer already being in the house. That said, no one here played a game of hide and seek for no reason.Five annoying youngsters (including one whose dialogue consists of "Whoo" and "Party") head of to some cabin for a bit of boozing and the usual slasher shenanigans, not know that there's a bald killer called Steve in the house who's not averse to doing a bit of housekeeping in between murdering teenagers. At first I thought he should have paced himself as he goes through victims rather quickly, but then I realised that the film had a few tricks up its sleeve.There's a lengthy stalking sequence later in the film, part of which seems to have been lifted wholesale from Sergio Martino's Torso (they thank him in the credits), and the last ten minutes or so come way out of nowhere. Plus the film's short and rather nicely filmed, so you can't go wrong here.

larawoolley This film isn't so bad. At first I was a bit put off with the narrator, and the weird filming effect; it looks like it was filmed in the 70s. But it's not.Anyway. The characters aren't totally likable which is great in slasher films, I tend to enjoy watching them a lot more then. I thought that this film would be one of those irritating ones where you see the annoying happy, care free teens having a blast and getting wasted for the first hour before anything happens; I was wrong, and happily so. Things start happening within the first 15 minutes which really grabbed my attention; usual films of this genre/story line take a lot longer for things to happen. It's a pretty short film and things happen quickly; there's no unnecessary hanging around or irritating dialogue.What I liked the most about this film; I seriously empathised with the killer!! I love films that make me feel this way (Devil's Rejects being another). Maybe I'm weird. Well I won't spoil the ending here .... I was surprised to hear the narrator's voice again though.

aimless-46 Nothing to seek out or to avoid. A group of us made pretty much this same slasher flick back in 2004 as part of a 48-hour film competition; where we wrote, shot, and edited everything in just 48 hours. So I could relate the lameness; and I could realize just how fortunate it was that we did not have the time to put together a lot of embarrassing special features like the ones on this DVD. And I could be thankful that we had someone on the team who grasped that production design could be more than mixing up a lot of fake blood and a personalized birthday cake."Murder Loves Killers Too" (2009) demonstrates the old movie maker adage that you can't find a really good looking girl willing to take off her top in your movie, unless she is being paid. As the three unpaid females prance around early in the movie, it quickly becomes obvious that Lindy (Kat Szumski) is the keeper (the hot one with the great body), who should get the most screen time and should wear the least clothes; assuming the director has a clue about his target demographic. That Aggie (Christine Haeberman) fills out her jeans quite nicely and has an interesting face. And that Tamra (Mary LeGault) has a body that would benefit from more clothes and maybe a little liposuction. So guess who takes off her clothes? And guess who gets killed off almost immediately. And they wonder why these things can't find much of an audience. There were two cool cuts to look for, one where Tamra lies down and the other where Stevie lies down; both of which then cut forward to the same shot, illustrating a passage of time without any sort of transition. Very nice. The movie has good intentions and the cast and crew appear to have had a lot of fun making it, but it is student film quality without the strange quirks that make some of those films interesting. While the movie has some elements of obvious self-parody and is generally fun viewing, the overall production quality (from the staggeringly lame acting to the awkward and cheap staging) makes it hard to determine what is deliberate parody and what is just a mockfest moment.Then again, what do I know? I'm only a child.

macntosh When you know a movie is about a slasher and teenagers, you don't expect 'The Godfather'. What you do expect is a fun 90 minutes of blood, screams, humour and thrills. This film delivers for its intended genre and audience. For slasher films of the modern age, the gore is quite tame. The same goes for the nudity. But this film hearkens back to the late 70's and 80's when the filmmakers knew their audience. I enjoyed it because it reminded me so much of a movie I would have stayed up late to see back in the day. Yes, you can call it retro.For the negatives, there is a very awkward scene to start the movie with a narrator, but once you get past that, it's clear sailing. I also feel the audio could be better, but it doesn't detract from the film much. Grab some popcorn and enjoy.
