BLEED
 
PLOT
Maddy has just moved to a new city and gotten her dream job, now
the only thing left is for her to get new friends. She decides to
take the invitation from her boss and come to a meeting with his
friends. They tell her about their secret murder club where everyone
who wants to become a member has to kill someone. But things get
out of hand and the members of the murder club start getting killed
by a mysterious masked killer.
REVIEW
I had been waiting for two months to see this movie as I love teenage
slashers, but I was very disappointed. To begin with, almost all slasher
flicks have a couple of loud noise jumps at least, but this didn't have
any jumps or suspense at all. The next thing is that on the cover, the
mask that the killer wears looks way cool, but in the movie, it's so
damn ugly and unoriginal you wouldn't believe it, and the fact is, we
don't even get to see the killer a lot. The third thing that bothered me
was that almost everyone in this cast got naked, not just the girls, oh
no, but the guys as well, and all the sex they had, it was unbelievable,
I didn't know if I was watching a bad porno or a low budget horror flick.
And the forth thing that bothered me about the movie was that the body-
count was way too low, I've read that the director wants to have a lot
of gore and nudity in his films, well, we got the nudity, but where's the gore?
The directing shifted from average quality to Camp Blood quality if you
know what I mean. Nothing interesting about the directing at all, what
surprised me was that when I asked a friend of mine how many copies of this
movie the video store in his quarter had, he said he couldn't tell because
they were all rented. For the acting, the entire cast does a rather terrible
job, I don't think I've seen a good performance more than once from Debbie
Rochon, and that was in American Nightmare. There are some actors that do
manage to stay average though so they're not all crap.
The plot is downright dumb, and that's coming from a modern teenage slasher-
fan. I guess we should be happy when we get a plot at all though as just
as I said earlier, this movie focuses mainly on bringing the audience some
cheap hardons. This ultimately boring, low budget, non scary slasher sure
ruined my evening, still, I have seen worse so I'll have to give this at
least one star, and I did sometimes enjoy the cheesy nudity. I just hope
that this isn't one of those slashers who get a sequel because I know
I will just do the same mistake there and rent that aswell because I like
the cover art.
GORE
As there isn't a very high body count we don't get a lot of gore, some
blood splatter, some guts pour out, someone gets a hammer in the head,
some slit throat (which was more gory than most slit throat scenes),
an axe in the back and a knife through ones neck. When we do get the
gore, it is quite graphical as you might notice.
SOUNDTRACK
I didn't really realise that there was a soundtrack in this movie as it
was nothing memorable at all, the opening titles play some teen rock tune
to grab the young audience's attention. Then there's some really bad "dance"
music, at least they could've used some good dance music right? Some more
rock after that and some strings and piano playing which is average for all
horror movies.
BOTTOM LINE
To tell you the truth I enjoyed Bloody Murder more than this, this wasn't
even so bad that it's funny, this was just so bad that you wanted to commit
suicide for wrecking an hour and a half watching this junk. Remember this
people, good cover art rarely come with a good movie. Simple cover art means
that the movie doesn't need good cover art because the movie the movie is
good anyway. Last movie I saw that was this bad has to have been Head Cheerleader
Dead Cheerleader, which also starred Debbie Rochon, wow, I'm quickly losing
faith in that she will someday become a good actress. Bottom line is that I
think you should stay away from this and rent something else instead as you
probably will kick yourself in the bum after watching this movie. On the other
hand, if you do enjoy ultra low budget nudity soft porn horror, then this is a must for you!
