I would like to begin by saying that the above score is fully taking into account the low budget and host of other things that obviously can impact on the quality of a film. I am not bashing on it for being low budget (I enjoy far too many low budget films for that to be the case) I am bashing it for being awful. Things begin rather badly - Wafer thin characterisation is clearly going to be what damages this film far more than its budget. It would have been one thing if the people making this had decided to make a cheap, dumb slasher flick-lack of budget and effects being made up for by inventive killings. You don't even get that. I don't know if the cut aways before each murder are due to lack of budget or because it was felt that the effect would be heightened but in any case its poor. Arguably the best things about this film are the beginning - which stops just about short of a soft-core porn scene- and the final survivor running around in her pants at the end. Now, the fact that I am typing this and you are reading this means we both have access to the Internet and therefore enough porn to satisfy even the most jaded pervert. As such, a pair of reasonably attractive girls wearing very little just isn't enough to save the feeblest slasher action in living memory. I can only assume that the makers of this POS knew how awful the film was as the first and last sequences seem to involve jiggling bosoms rather than the full on horror masterpiece the blurb on the box was promising.
In a world where films such as Kevin Smiths Clerks can be made for a good $20 k less than this, cries of "but its so low budget" must surely fall on deaf ears.
