Paintball Massacre

If it was not so bad it was actually funny or I would never have finished watching it. Low budget, poor acting and a storyline which was not believable. The special effects were comical. It gets the worst movie award since Valley of the Sasquatch. It you are bored and need a laugh, watch this movie to realize life is not so bad.

The film was overall okay! My only constructive criticism is that the kills were actually seen like you saw ___ being impaled as oppose to seconds after and the killer actually had a face reveal.

Film buffs will likely hate it given the very low budget gore wise especially when ___ was searching inside ___'s stomach however all aside this was an independently made film and hats off to all the cast and crew who put it together you have potential to create great content.

P. S Lee Latchford Evans is literally the cutest and did well for his first acting roll.

Its like they just could not be bothered with trying to act as the writing and directing was such poor quality. The ending was similar, they just couldn't be bothered. I feel I could write, direct and act better.

It's a great title and premise, and this is what drew me to it and delivered most of the enjoyment. Plus it had a great tone and vibe which carries you through to the end.

It does have some flaws, though. The script only really starts the character development at the same time as when those characters try to work out in earnest who is actually attacking them - about halfway through the film - and therefore will be too late for some of the audience. So the first half just feels like a series of clunky, implausible, unnecessary jokes. Plus, there are some holes. When they find the initial massacre, they strangely underreact, even talk about going for a beer. In all, the first half chooses jokes over believability and suffers for it, but the second half comes into focus plot-wise very well.

I will say some of the acting is pretty wooden, some is okay, but also there are some really great performances, especially from Cheryl Burniston and Aoife Smyth.

This is one of those heroic efforts on a tiny budget, which I am here for. If you go in with that in mind, you'll have the best time.

The film isn't that bad, the idea of a school reunion turned deadly isn't original but does make it easier to write, most of them die, one of them (or someone they all know) is the killer, and this movie fails by setting it up and just giving no real ending. You can imagine the people behind this film thinking they're clever, leaving the killer's identity up to the viewer, or open to interpretation, but the reality is it just comes over as if they couldn't be bothered to finish the story.

The acting is passable, there's no award winning performances, no real standout talent, which is why you won't recognise any of the main cast. The attempts at humour fail as do the attempts at horror since most of the kills happen off screen.

Chances are you'll identify or recognise some of these characters from your own school experience and had the kills, script, ending, acting, any of those been better the film might have worked, as it stands it's not one I would recommend to anyone, but it's also not one I'd put on a list to avoid.
