Entertaining slasher for the Halloween season. 71min imdb
(VPN:D) this is the 71min version. The 73min version cannot be embedded, so there is a direct link in the picture to the left.
Review:
It’s Helloween, and two couples of twenty somethings are loitering in front of the old, abandoned novelty shop. An old man warns them that this place is haunted, so they burgle it right away. The first jumpscare, of course, is just a joke, the slashing doesn’t start before a few minutes later.
The first half our is dedicated to the exposition, the shorter part is about the slasher’s origin, the longer part is about the characterisation of Rick The Prick. Why? Because! He definitely is not the center of the movie, but his part is played by the writer/editor/director of the movie who obviously enjoyed being the dude with the infinite amount of girlfriends. I think that with half an hour this is a pretty long exposition, especially since the movie has according to imdb and filmstarts.de an official runtime of 60min. Which makes me wonder because the youtube edit has a lengthy mid credit scene.
Anyway, is it good or not so? I’ll say it’s okay. It’s got no surprising plot twists, and it’s not new or special or anything, but it’s very decent holiday related binge material.
