Most Likely to Die

Yes the acting wasn't the greatest, but the storyline behind it, where it's located & all the well thought out murders, this is a enjoyable slasher with a twist ending. Lighten up people!

I certainly understand the amount of negative reviews and overall attitude of disdain for this film. Most Likely to Die really is a bad movie. The plot is contrived and silly, replete with all of the slasher clichés. The cinematography is adequate at best, the lighting is horrible. The acting ranges from serviceable to downright laughable (don't get me started on Perez Hilton). So why, despite all of these drawbacks, did I enjoy this film? One word: nostalgia. Most Likely to Die is a hardcore throwback to the cheesy slasher flicks of the 80's. Every single aspect of this film, other than the outfits and music, screams 80's slasher. Even the plot is a direct reference to, if not a ripoff of, the 1986 horror film Slaughter High (also known as April Fool's Day). Most Likely to Die is a direct descendant of these legendary films, much more so than most modern slashers that also recycle the usual tropes. It's really sort of a guilty pleasure. If you're looking for anything other than a corny throwback, throw this one right out the window.

This is one of the worst horror movies made in the past ten years. It's so bad that while watching you'll see under acting, over acting, and things that are so unbelievable you'll burst out in laughter. There's not a lot of action. There's a ton of dialogue and the bad thing is that the acting is awful so it makes the discussions between characters extremely hard to watch. It's like the writers and directors never saw a movie in their life. It's like the actors are fresh out of elementary acting school. I'm just trying to understand how things like this get made.

At the end of the day, don't waste your time unless you're bored and want to laugh at all the failure. I mean, it stars Perez Hilton. Need I say more?

Yes, The ending was awesome because it was a big plot twist but it actually started out really boring and it took me alittle while to actually be interested in the movie. I did give the movie a chance though and I kind of liked it. That's why I rate it 5/10. It was still pretty good though it's just almost half of the movie started out really boring.

Slasher flick Most Likely To Die features a pretty cool killer: clad in graduation gown and cap, face hidden by a papier-mâché mask constructed from cuttings from an old yearbook, he kills his victims using the sharp edges of his mortar board (throwing it on occasion like Oddjob in Goldfinger). When he's not using his hat to kill, he resorts to a retractable craft knife to cut throats. This means that there are some pretty decent death scenes, including one character having her neck severed before being completely decapitated by the maniac (who uses his bare hands to complete the job), and another having a broken hockey stick jammed into his mouth before the obligatory throat slashing.

Unfortunately, a memorable psycho and some reasonable gore is about all the film does have going for it. The rest of the film is an exercise in sheer mediocrity, with extremely obnoxious characters, stilted dialogue and mundane action in which the soon-to-be-dead repeatedly split up to put themselves in peril. The cast range from the reasonable to the completely wooden, with celebrity blogger Perez Hilton (as camp alcoholic Freddie) the most unbearable (unsurprisingly). The most recognisable 'proper' actor, Jake Busey, is one of the first to die, ending his suffering way before the viewer's.
