Negative Positive
Title: Very disappointing
Review: From the cover and the write-ups, one would think that this film definitely had promise. I'm not sure what all the people that gave this rave reviews were seeing that I wasn't, but I think I watched this all the way through without once laughing or being frightened. The premise is similar to that of countless slasher films over the years: tragedy happens at remote camp, killer is never apprehended, years later more hapless boobs return to same remote camp, only to be fodder for aforementioned "never apprehended" killer. The humor in this really falls flat, and cleverness never enters the picture. Sure, there's some gore, but nothing you've never seen before. I usually enjoy Reggie Bannister (Phantasm, etc.) but he's rather unlikeable in this and hasn't much to offer. I think from now on when I see the words "Cult Classic" on a brand new film, I will pass. 2 out of 5.
Is the review positive or negative?
