Stag Night

There are some lines at the beginning of the movie (after the "initial" shock scene that is), that try to convince that this movie has a real background. Of course as with many other horror movies, this does not stay in our reality and has quite some major flaws in it's story telling. You just get enough background information on some of the guys (their relationship to each other), to know who is who. Beyond that there is nothing to really distinguish them (apart from the character that Breckin Meyers portrays, but never really achieves anything with, except from his first scenes).

Actually, if you didn't know Breckin Meyer (which could be the case), you might be excused to not even really notice him and be completely irritated by his action(s) later as the movie progresses.

Storytelling and character aren't really the backbones of this movie, but it has some nice/decent horror moments and some pretty good gore effects. Unfortunately some scenes are edited/shot as if the cameraman/editor had been under "influence". I'm not a big fan of the "shake the camera" and it will look frightening theory. Others might be, not me though.

Decent, but nothing you really need to watch, unless you are into this sort of genre pictures (and even then there are so many other movies out there)

After a failed pick-up attempt on a subway train lands four guys and two girls in an abandoned stop at four in the morning they realize they have bigger problems then trying to find a way out. There really is not much to say about this one. Not much to this movie but finding people and killing and dismembering them. VERY Gory!!! For a "Ghosthouse" horror movie it actually is not too bad though. The best way to describe it would be if the creatures from "I am legend" and "The Descent" lived in the New York subways. If you are into gore and a decent story this would be a good pick up. I give it a C.

Would I watch again? - I don't think so.

Stag night kind of reminds me of the 1973 movie deathline in America it's called raw meat. But censored heavily. And midnight meat train. It's an ugly world below the subway and these guys and 2 women leave a subway car and get trapped in this dirty disgusting world inhabited by cannibals. Can we call them chuds?Anyway it's a predictable story with a lot of blood and guts. It stars; Breckin Myer (Freddy's dead, final nightmare) Vanessa Shaw, and a few unknowns. It's a good time Easter you should only see once. No visible plot. But an uneasy feeling of claustrophobia.with rats and roaches and dirty toilets. The subway can be a very scary place and you really don't know what kind of evil lives underneath. But no alligators so they did leave that urban legend out of the movie. But can you get any worse than canabals?

First off, let me say i love my horror films.

The story is nothing special, 6 people get them selves stuck in an underground train yard, they are confronted by a group of crazy cannibals, Can they survive? Maybe, Can we survive the bad camera work and sub par direction of the movie? maybe...

All around the acting was decent, all the actors held up there own in this movie, i have to say they actually did a good job with the script they had to work with.

Let me get to the camera work, it was bad, really bad for most part of the movie, i think i got a bit of a headache after watching the movie.

This is not a bad movie, but it's not good either, it's watchable (if u can stomach the camera views that the director chooses to use), The death scenes were OK, the actors did well, the only problem is when a movie of any genre takes it self seriously, then i would expect some kind of logic from the script, there was little logic here, but I've seen worst. deducting 3 points for the camera work and 2 for the poor script. 5/10

This has to be the strangest horror film I've ever seen...I'll list the basics:

Decent production values: Check Decent enough cast and not bad acting: Check Dark and atmospheric: Check Creepy and plenty of jumps: Check Great gore effects and plenty of blood: Check Decent soundtrack: Check

All of the elements to make a good horror film for even the most demanding horror fans...So why on earth did the director feel the need to have his camera man shake the camera from side to side ALL THE WAY through the film???

It was nauseating, annoying, difficult to make out what was going on for most of the time. The action and horror scenes were extremely difficult to concentrate on...Underneath this was a very good horror film but it was totally ruined by the worst camera work I have ever seen in a film.

I'll give it a 3 purely for what lies underneath but it loses 5 stars for the camera work...Hugely disappointing...Watch Creep instead, it's no classic but it holds the same premise and more importantly, you can see what's going on.
