    BeeeeeEEEEEs?

    This movie really had everything - bees, beer and a bounty of fantastic death scenes. You have to love the throw back to classic campy horror films, all the hash humor and the actor's ability to sell everything in a truly bee-lievable way. Ten out of ten, would watch again honey.

    Brilliant

    This movie has brilliantly combined horror, comedy, and the Hash House Harrier culture! The attention to craft demonstrated by the creators as well as the cast demonstrates a love for the art missing from so many other films.

    What a Fun Ride

    Martin Renner hits a home run on this film. I mean why did we not think of a Bee Keeper killer before? Insanely good mix of comedy and horror. A must watch for fans. Another example of Indie films out shinning the studios.

    Throwback to 80s horror slashers

    What a blast Buzz Cut is! This has to be the most fun I've had in ages watching a movie, and it is indie horror at its finest. Hard to believe it took this long to get a proper kiwi slasher flick, and Buzz Cut is happy to fill that void. There are lots of nods to classic 80s slashers, and while some of the writing is not for the faint of heart (if you're easily offended it's best to avoid this one), it really does take you back to when slashers were in their prime. There's some great gory practical effects, and some really fantastic Kiwi humour. Buzz Cut is indie horror gold!

    TerriBlEE Funny

    For a self funded film this production took no shortcuts. As a general rule I am pretty skeptical of Indie Horror Flicks, but unlike most, Buzz Cut didn't phone it in. The actors were engaged, rarely did the performances come across as amateurish. The practical effects were, notably, spot on. Granted, the premise of the movie being centered around The Hash House Harriers will be hard for people that aren't involved with that subculture to fully appreciate; but the movie captures "hasher culture" pretty dang well (even some of the not so great aspects). It's difficult to walk the line between horror and comedy but this film achieves it.
