    the lowest of the lowest of the low.

    wow, there's just so much so very wrong with this piece of crap i'm not sure where to start.

    normally i have a soft spot for even the dirge that united home video brings to market, i mean, how can you not love blood cult, a similarly awful movie yet shot on betacams? (at least the cheap synthesizer used for the score in blood cult was used in conjunction with a sequencer and/or quasi-literate musician)

    i rented "last slumber party" mostly due to seeing the "united home video" emblem, thinking i might get a good beer-infused laugh out of it. hardly.

    there are home movies of you getting you learning to ride your first bike that have both better quality and lighting. the acting seems to imply that everyone was either on a heavy diet of painkillers or just plain outright awful. the story is a deliberate attempt to borrow from virtually every other movie in the "girls at slumber party get drunk and then slashed up by escaped maniac" subgenre yet somehow manages to come off as completely retarded.

    only good note, the heavy metal music provided by "FIRSTRYKE"... the best/worst hairmetal in a horror flick since the prom scene in prom night 3.

    avoid this at any and all costs.

    Absolute "So Bad It's Good" Nonsense

    I can barely even form a coherent sentence to describe to you what this movie actually is after having seen it, but I'll try.

    The premise is your typical cliché: A killer comes to slice up some teens. Here, it's an escaped mental patient in a doctor's outfit wielding a scalpel. Against all odds and even logic itself, he goes on a rather successful murder-spree.

    This movie is like something a bunch of friends knocked out in a weekend. They probably had no idea what they were doing, I doubt a script was written, they clearly had no budget to work with, and very little experience in making movies. But they still did it, and that's kind of amazing.

    The writing is abysmal, the dialog is even worse. The editing is a train wreck, where it's clear they dubbed music over individual shots rather than entire scenes, leading to incredibly disjointed moments where cutting to different camera angle will remove the background music until they go back to the first camera. Acting ranges from wooden to supremely over-the-top. The killer in particular has lots of (great?) scenes where he's staring directly in to the camera with his eyes bugging out, waving a scalpel around for no reason, like he's trying to dissect the lens.

    I had the pleasure of watching this movie with a group of friends, and we all had a blast. There's a lot of amazing stupidity worth laughing at, and the movie actually does a pretty good job of ratcheting up its own absurdity. The last 10-15 minutes are as close to a literal fever dream as any movie can come.

    Would I recommend? It's a STUNNINGLY bad movie, but it's also thoroughly ridiculous and I bet everyone involved had a lot of fun producing it. If that sounds right up your alley, then by all means, check this out.

    Wow!!!!!

    This movie, by far, is the best horror movie of all time. The plot twists, the acting, the sheer suspense and excitement is incredibly spell-binding. I recommend this movie to anyone who loves to be freaked out, and when I say freaked out, I mean, FREAKED OUT!!!!!! Girls trapped in a house with a killer on the loose. How do you come up with this stuff? This movie has a successful formula to it, and many many writers of horror movies and directors of the horror genre need to study this movie inside and out to learn what it is that's truly scary. If you want to see a movie that makes you pee your pants, check out the Last Slumber Party. Pure genius!!

    The Last Slumber Party: A harsh, but truthful, review.

    Dismal, just dismal......... when it comes to slasher flicks I really do hope there aren't any worse than this, but if there are, well than that's quite a shame.

    Reviewing The Last Slumber Party...... what a pleasure, here goes. After seeing this flick not a single positive thought comes to mind, however if you ever have the urge to see the worst example of the slasher film genre - this is it: The Last Slumber Party. It's a pathetically lame movie, the worst of it's kind and a failure on all levels, however, at the same time it's also an excellent example of not just shoddy film-making, but rather a tour-de-force of all things bad in movies. Which in it's case only intensifies the longer it goes and by the movies end you should have by then, developed a healthy amount of hatred for it and the reasons for that are many. Let me cite some of those reasons.

    Right from the very start the movie opens up with an utterly tasteless opening credits sequence, in which every other word is displayed in hot pink, in addition to that you'll hear some lame 80's glam-rock band blaring away. So factually speaking before you're even through the movies open credits you're -already- up to your ears in a sea of tasteless dreck, but the worst is yet to come. And what of the actors, you say? Well I think you'll quickly deduce the fact that the films cast is comprised, almost entirely, of a small gaggle of dumb horny teens (do I have you cringing yet?), yet another clue as to what level of film-making one can expect to see from The Last Slumber Party - oh but the movie has just begun. The films "teen cast" is just plain terrible and the adult actors are just as bad; especially the guy who plays the doctor, I've never seen anyone less charismatic than him. The dialog of this movie (just listen to it!) could not sound any more amateurish or juvenile (though it can get pretty colorful, I won't lie), even illogical at times. The films script is simply littered with copious amounts of generic slang and over-used clichés and before long their lingo (i.e. drivel) becomes incredibly redundant and tiresome.

    From a purely visual perspective the films cinematography and editing tends to get worse and worse as the movie goes, several scenes near the end for instance are definitely under-lit, not to mention the camera that they used was obviously having focus issues, which is a problem on and off throughout the whole movie. But if there's one aspect of The Last Slumber Party that's worse than all others, it would have to be in how it was edited. This movie is simply one of the worst examples of film-editing you're likely ever to see and as a result this movie has little in the way of logical flow and it gets unbelievably repetitive before long. The movie looks as if it were edited by someone who no longer had a functioning long-term memory (as if their mind was fried due to years of drug-abuse), because there are all kinds of issues with the plotting and continuity; so much so that for the most part the movie is nothing more than a jumble of lame, poorly-shot scenes that contain little in the way of logic and even less coherency. Especially near the end where several scenes are either blatantly out of sequence and/or repeated multiple times, however the editing is highly questionable throughout the entire movie.

    Oh yeah and not to forget this gripping foot-note, which involves orange juice! That's right, if there's one thing that stands out in this pathetic movie, more so than anything else, it would have to be the abnormal and inordinate amount of importance that's placed on WHETHER OR NOT the doctor (at his wives request) will remember to buy: Orange Juice! Seriously, I'm not making that up and do try to keep in mind that this is supposed to be a slasher film or a "horror" film. Come to think of it, this movie IS a thing of horror - but not for any of the reasons it's makers intended it to be. The suspense runs thick, oh so thick, will the doctor buy orange juice or will he not. Well, you'll just have to wait and see.

    The Last Slumber Party isn't just the worst slasher film, but also one of the worst movies period. But I suppose if you were to completely shut-off your brain you might be able to enjoy this movie, but really this truly is movie-making at it's most dire.

    This is a bad movie by even Rifftrax standards, it's that bad.

    God this one is GOOD!

    Wow! You have every possible element in this movie. The year is 1987. 3 Teenage girls have a slumber party. Their immature boyfriends stop by to try and scare them. twists and turns! JOKES! but its really funny, the mom of the girl who is having the slumber party is at home as well. ORIGINALITY! the worst actor in the film by far is the Dad, who is a doctor. Oh the orange juice. The best acting however is done by the killer himself.

    Far better than Sorority House Massacre! As if thats too difficult for you to believe. But of course we still should say thanks to Slumber Party Massacre for being the true creator of the slumber party slasher craze.
