Horny Teenagers Must Die!

Finally graduating from high school, a group of friends decide to celebrate the occasion with a special getaway trip to a cabin in the woods for a weekend of sex and partying, but when they mysteriously disappear come to believe that a savage killer has begun killing them one by one.

This was a fairly fun if somewhat flawed genre effort. One of the finer features to be had here is the overall fine setup that doesn't try to reinvent the wheel and just serves as a worthwhile means to offer tons of sleazy antics with the group in the woods. As we get an immediate glimpse into their lives not just with the initial diagnosis of their graduation and the journey off into the woods as a means of celebrating that, but to see how they prepare for the trip by gathering their friends on the way there or just goofing off in the backseat of the tide there sets everything in motion by giving us a fine look into their lives on the trip there. When they arrive and it turns into a series of sexcapades with everyone off trying to sleep with their girlfriends at every opportunity in various positions makes for a fine touch as well to help get more of a feel for who they are and what's going on. That sets the film up well enough for the slashing antics to come off rather well against this backdrop. With the initial cold open showing off some brutal kills and stalking early on, the rest of the scenes in the woods are fine enough with the later antics coming off within the woods as great shock ambushes of the killer taking them out in quite brutal fashion. Even with the inclusion of unconventional weaponry in the attacks, this one takes a strong approach to the scenes as they're usually kept to a more serious touch than expected with the deaths treated with the idea of a serious killer in their midst who just happens to use sex toys during the ambush sequences. Once the truth is revealed and they become aware of the killer as these ambushes are based on stragglers to the group away from everyone, the newfound mix of stalking scenes and whodunnit mystery is a fine touch allowing for some fine brutality and kills to be had here that hold this one up nice. There are some issues with this one that bring it down. Among the biggest drawbacks to the film is the fact that so much of the first half here is spent on the general horniness of the group, preventing it from offering much in the way of genre fare. The killer's antics are brought about in just isolated ambushes that it rarely feels like a killer is out there with them. It takes far too long for that to get started with this setup involving the group going around screwing each other around the woods. That also causes the other side effect here of the rushed finale where it tries to do way too much in such a short amount of time that there's some weird spacing here where it never has a chance to breathe before moving on to something else in the blink of an eye is the reveal of the killer, what the motivation is, and the various interactions that came about which are handled in this chaotic manner. These are what hold this one down overall.

This movie went all out with some of the kills. The second scene has a guy getting his D*** cut off so you know what kind of movie you're getting into. It's decently written because it really did hit all those old slasher tropes which made the film almost feel nostalgic for me. They have a twist it didn't land completely for me because there were a lot of flaws to that logic, but it was still a fun film overall. I think if this film was made it in the 80s it would have fit in a little more. If you're looking for something that's mindless fun it's worth checking out I'm glad I watched it. -TheBigGuyOnHorror.

I told my wife right at the start I don't have high hopes for this movie. Horny Teenagers Must Die is not that bad of a flick it's actually pretty enjoyable. It's got quite a good cast for a larger than expected body count the kills were pretty decent. It's independent so you know the acting isn't gonna be great but overall the cast does a fairly decent job. First five minutes had a great body dismemberment gag definitely worth checking out. It's a worthy entry I can't say it's gonna be a Friday the 13th classic but I thoroughly enjoyed the movie and I'm happy I bought it.

Given it's title, this is most certainly a way to garner people's attention. Not as eye catching as 2016's cult classic "Don't F-k in the Woods" but it's something.

However as a film it is the standard but more modern version of throwback 1980's teen cabin in the woods slasher films. First the acting isn't great and highly overacted by a majority of them, with their deliveries tittering from unintentionally comical to just unconvincing.

The characters are nothing special (most annoying) but they do try and give some of them some background story (ex. Girlfriend not fully faithful, a couple "expecting"). There's also another character which seemed to get bullied by everyone as it made us wonder why they even invited him/her along.

As with these type of films, there are several brief scenes of explicit skin scattered throughout. The kills are standard with the killer using knives to stab, swords to slash heads off, eye gauges with a rake and even an adult toy shoved down a character's throat. These kills are very split second quick and the camera zooms in on the kills ensuring not to show the killer, but their hands.

The film just isn't anything special but it does get better in the latter half when the kills ramp up. It's one of those "one by one each character dies" type of film. Also there's a very predictable twist in the end regarding who the killer is. There are clues at the beginning which ultimately make it slightly obvious. Perhaps the best part of this film is figuring out who the killer is and how the reveal will unfold.

David Zagorski with a team of young but accomplished actors took on the horror tropes of a cabin in the woods and made the best of it. I featured this on my #Splatterday2K watchalong and we all had a blast. With a diverse cast and some very predictable but fun moments, the movie is very enjoyable. It has all the must haves: blood, wacky kills, sex, boobs, innuendos, unlikable characters, and outhouses. I really enjoyed what they were doing with this flick and of course, they threw in the inevitable plot twist at the end that made me chuckle. Give it a chance. If you think you could do a better movie, go for it. I will watch it! Make your movie, friends!!!
