UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.
chmotle I was really hoping for more based on the ratings that I saw. The cinematography is decent, as is the acting. However, the movie was relatively slow to pick up. There was nothing spectacular about any of the slasher scenes. The main females are quite attractive and there is some decent nudity involved. However, the plot is fairly weak. I found the plot to be way too unrealistic (even for a slasher flick which is saying a lot.) This movie really could have been a lot more, and it certainly had a decent beginning If you want to see a decent slasher flick that is relatively recent, I would recommend "I spit on your grave," "all the boys love mandy lane" or "cabin in the woods."
Woodyanders A group of young horror film fans led by the earnest and obsessive Tyler (a solid and likable performance by Tad Hilgenbrink) venture into the deep woods in search of the location where a legendary "lost" splatter fright flick was shot twenty years ago. The group discover that the killer in said feature is the real deadly deal and more than happy to meet new aficionados who are willing to die for his art. Director Dave Parker, working from a sick, compact, and ingenious script by David J. Schow, relates the absorbing story at a brisk pace, creates and sustains not only a genuinely creepy atmosphere, but also a strong feeling of dread and a good deal of tension, delivers a generous sprinkling of yummy bare distaff skin as well as a handy helping of graphic and unflinching in-your-face nasty gore, and tosses in shocking elements of snuff, torture, and incest to further spice up an already tasty'n'twisted cinematic stew. Better still, Parker maintains a grimly serious take-no-prisoners sensibility that becomes more increasingly bleak, dark, and unsettling as the harsh plot unfolds a powerfully disturbing surprise bummer ending. The fine acting from the capable cast rates as another sterling asset: William Sadler contributes a top-rate turn as deranged and reclusive director Concannon, gorgeous blonde Sophie Monk likewise excels as the equally unhinged, but sexy and enticing psycho junkie slut Alexa, Danko Jordanov cuts a scary figure as ferocious disfigured killer Babyface, plus there's sound work by fetching brunette Janet Montgomery as the sassy Serina and Alex Wyndham as the sarcastic Lalo. The startling outbursts of raw brutal violence pack a savage kick to the gut. Ilan Rosenberg's sharp cinematography provides a pleasing polished look. Frederick Wiedmann's shuddery score does the bone-rattling trick. Recommended viewing for slice'n'dice fans.
Joe Miller Well a while back I saw clips of this movie in a fan-made music video and I spent a good 2 or 3 weeks trying to find out the name of this movie ( all I saw was Babyface and some gore shots ). I really looked everywhere for this movie but living in a small town in South Dakota we don't have many stores that have movies.So finally I just started looking online and I found this and was really excited about watching it!But.... when I started it I kinda was disappointed. I still watched it hoping it got better but it really didn't. You could really guess what was going to happen in the next shot and well that's never fun in a horror movie right?I gave this a 4 because the story really didn't capture me and it just didn't interest me all that much.~Joe
Peter Stiglitz The Hills Run Red is a slasher/horror film and it is one of the best of its kind to be released in a long time. The Hills Run Red is a perfect slasher film. It is very bloody and it has a villain that feels like a classic villain just like Jason Voorheese and more. The film is scary and tense and has a lot of unexpected twists. The acting is very good and a special compliment goes to Sophi Monk who is very believable in this role. The kills are good and the concept for the film is an original one and very cool. I want to see more of Babyface and I hope there will be a sequel. This film is bloody, sexy, funny, scary and good film to watch with friends on a Friday night. I give it 7/10 and hope horror and slasher fans will support it!
