Bad Reputation

Do not waste your time. Anyone who gave this film more than one star was a friend of, or paid by, the makers of the film. The girls were cute but that was the only thing this film had going for it. The dialog was horrible, the acting sucked and the casting was laughable. The "Cop" and "Guidance counselor" were the same age as the rest of the "High School" cast and could have easily played those roles. This movie doesn't even have the elements that make a good "B" movie. No nudity, no gore and no suspense. I had to watch all of this movie in order to write a fair review so that you don't have to. Do not watch this film, but if you do, don't say you weren't warned.

No pun or rep intended - not sure if that makes sense. And I am not only talking about my sentence there ... but also about the movie. Well I reckon the movie might make a bit more sense ... actually it is not tough to follow, rather the opposite, using tropes and cliches you are very likely to be familiar with.

Question is how cringe you think this is or rather if it is any good at all. The main character seems too gullible to be true - but we do know that people like that exist in real life. We also know that sexual assault is not uncommon either. Unfortunately - movies like this one may be able to highlight things like that. On the other hand you could also accuse it of exploiting that and making an entertaining (?) movie out of that ... well quality wise this is not worse than other efforts of the same kind ... you either love it or hate it ... and I would hope you understand I mean the revenge part of it and not the first despicable act ... no pun intended.

I TRIED to like it..I REALLY DID. But the "acting" I SO RANCID that I couldn't get into it in the SLIGHTEST! The woman playing the mom was laughable. I'm assuming that there were ZERO auditions for these roles. There really wasn't one likeable character in the ENTIRE movie...and yes...I made it all the way through the movie...barely. Actually,this would be a GREAT flick to watch if you get together with some friends,and just want to LAUGH YOUR BUTTS OFF! There is absolutely NO WAY you can take this flick seriously. If you are in the mood for a good "Revenge Movie"...this is NOT the one. There are many MANY more that aren't good,but WAYYYYYY BETTER than this pile of garbage. Honestly...it's not even SO BAD THAT IT'S GOOD...it's...just...bad.

Toodles.

Another movie to be avoided. Probably shot on DV, the sound and picture is pretty low quality, along with the unrealistic dialogue, the horrible "effects", plus the amateurish directing, acting and cinematography.

Maybe they were going for some kind of "realism", but it just doesn't work. The script is tedious and boring, the scenes go on forever, the editing (and everything else really) is just so predictable that you'll end up getting thoroughly annoyed and wanting to turn it off. I know I did.

I'm sure they had great fun making this movie, but it's just not worth anyone's time actually watching it. It's not kitch, it's not camp - and if you want to see a good movie about revenge, check out "May" instead.

First-time writer/director Jim Hemphill has captured the spirit of Roger Corman's New World Pictures in this very entertaining revenge picture. Anyone who remembers Stephanie Rothman's fine work for the studio should run to check this out. Shot on a shoestring budget, the film looks and feels like a classy 'B' picture. The cast of unfamiliar faces does a great job with this tale of a virgin who suddenly finds herself branded town slut. The dialog is clever and strictly first rate and any film that depicts sports and jocktards in such a negative light is to be devoutly cherished. Arguably the most reviled genre of all, Hemphill has a ball spoofing slasher films. But this isn't simply Wes Craven warmed over - this film has loads of style and a great sense of humor to back it up. For fans of the genre as well as those of us who might normally leapfrog over this on a rental shelf.
