All Girls Weekend

This film is not as great as it wants to be, but is still a cool little survival/slasher with some pretty good kill scenes in it.

I'm not going to bore everyone with a long-winded review (like I am sometimes accustomed to doing), because the premise for the film is simple, the film itself is also very simple, and laid out for you from the beginning.

Most of the girls do a pretty good (and relatively convincing) job here, and if you've got an hour to spare, this film should make you smile if you're a fan of the genre.

Direction-wise, the film delivers what it is supposed to, and there are some nice cinematography shots of the beautiful surrounding wilderness to take in (sometimes these are REALLY nice, and I wish there were more longer shots to take it all in).

Low budget, all girl slasher. The plot is already laid out in the beginning so no confusing story-line to follow. No flashbacks just right to the point. The actresses in the movie do a pretty convincing role. There really isn't any chemistry between them but they all seem to have some good acting skills. Direction was decent, there are few scenes that were really enjoyable to watch. No shaky camera, no extreme closeups, I would give the director a thumbs up for sure. Reminds me of a low budget 80's slasher film. Most people reviewing these low budget horror movies must not have been fans of the genre. People have to realize what they are watching and if its not in the class of movies they enjoy, just don't watch it and post a 1 star rating. I have actually never rated any movie in my life a 1 star. I have seen way better movies, and I have seen way worse, but it defiantly deserves at 3.5 to 4 stars solid. What I really liked about this movie and deserves more than 2 stars is the use of practical effects. Practical effects add more of a realism to the movie and of course looks way better. Too many times have I watched a modern horror movie with digital blood and I just down right sucks and looks so bad. So props for practical effects and I hope more directors and special effects people move far away from digital effects for horror movies. Overall a good movie for someone that enjoys low budget 80's style slasher films. 4 stars for me!

This movie has very little to it, there are just some women in some woods walking around and sometimes talking, then sometimes there are some creepy whispers. That is actually it.

Sometimes you have so little budget that you have to cut corners, but this film takes it way too far. You can do so much more, just have good characters and interesting dialogue. Instead this is just a boring slog that does very little to entertain you.

Overall I wouldn't bother with this one, there is nearly nothing going on and it's not even like the film tries to sell itself with skin or gore as both are sparse here too. No good.

This is ultra low budget for sure. Just look towards what is happening, it is a must see because this is so bad that you will love it. To give an example, the cover is the most terrifying thing to see.

It's just one big joke, there's no horror, the story itself is unbelievable and the effects if there are any are laughable too because you never see what is happening, yes, off-camera we call it. yes, the red stuff do flies here and there on faces but that doesn't make a horror flick. It takes a while before the girls set-off for a hike and by the conversations they are having and the stupid situations at home you do know immediately what kind of flick you will see. The first encounter with horror is so dull. They are sitting in the woods and after a lazy conversation one of them says, what's that smell. Suddenly all girls do smell it and what does it reveal, rotting flesh laying a bit further, admit it viewers, you would smell it instance and not after 1à minutes of yawning talking.

And so this flick goes on and on, with one girl touching some poisonous leaves while wiping her crouch, yes, you've guessed it, itching fingers and itching crouch, a must see how those girls are handling that.

So weird that this flick didn't bother me at all, and towards the end the possession of the woods comes in with stock footage of a beer. All girls weekend? Guess they are more stupid then dump and dumper.

Assuming you've read the other reviews on this page, I'm skipping all the diatribe about that the budget was supposedly $1,000,000. Yes, for that amount of money this should have been much better. However, as a low budget, bare-bones horror film, it really wasn't nearly as bad as I expected. I have certainly seen worse films with better reviews. The story is simple, yet ambitious, and if it fails to live up to that ambition, well...better luck next time.

The editing was iffy, the acting spotty (sometimes decent, sometimes bad), but the location is visually appealing and little things made it somewhat enjoyable to watch, if only once. I won't use spoilers, but the progression of the second-to-main character is actually fairly subtle and interesting. If you watch the beginning and the end you'll see what I mean.

In sum, is this a great film? No. Is it the worst possible film ever made? No. I found it on YouTube and the comments there are much more forgiving, perhaps because they didn't read these reviews first.
