Virgin Cheerleaders in Chains

Saw this at the River Fest Film Festival after a long day of viewing long and short films. Out of the fifteen movies I saw that day, this one still sticks out to me. This movie doesn't take itself too seriously and the audience is let in on the fun. Too many horror movies leave out the humor and try to make you jump out of your seat. But this one was a nicely story within a story that left me happy that I saw it.

It is a story about a group of people that are trying to write and film a horror movie. While on location, the movie becomes reality as members of the crew are picked off one at a time. Come for the movie making and stay for the slashing and hacking!

Given the title, I wasn't expecting much. The lighting was also a little too dark throughout. But overall an entertaining film with a good twist at the end.

Look, it's a low budget film and never pretends otherwise, and I have a warm place in my heart for low budget films and film makers who are smart and make the most out of what they've got. Like these guys. For its type (yes, if you haven't figured it out already yes there's some gore and blood), style, subject...well done, folks. A fun ride.

Where to even begin with this nonsense? I have no clue what they they were attempting here but it missed at every turn. Were they going for the 'Inception' of cheap horror flicks? Was it supposed to be respected as an actual film?

This hot garbage had no structure, instead choosing to jump between asleep and deep asleep it a movie that never hit. The effects were a cheese fest which was supposed to be 'part of the gar' I guess and then switches ' no we're serious' and back to 'no were not'. The dialog is painfully ridiculous and the acting is even worse. Plot points go no where. ..... And 'My cat is stuck in the tree anyone???'

Seriously, just avoid this train wreck. It doesn't even have 'dumb fun'.

This movie was an amazing take on the standard slasher film. It is smart, and suprising all at the same time. I was smiling through the whole thing, because I knew I was witnessing something truly unique.
