Lovers Lane

the first time i saw this movie i actually rented it, at full new release price, and hated it. I thought it was idiotic and just plain bad. I feel it may have been due to the fact that I had paid four bucks to rent it. A couple months later I found it on sale at a blockbuster for 1.99 and even though I didn't like the movie I bought it anyway and I have since watched it numerous times and now it is one of my top 'guilty pleasures'. the ending still doesn't make complete sense but all the goofy dialogue and the twists and turns have made this movie a classic b-movie,the average person hates it but it appeals strongly to a certain population. this movie contains Anna Ferris from Scary Movie fame and is dressed in a cheerleader outfit that she wears on dates and around town (even though if you watch closely, no one else in the school is wearing the uniform, she must be the schools only cheerleader.), and it feature Sarah Lancaster from the new Saved by the Bell as bitchy vamp who likes to wear short skirts (her nude scene is a body-double, it says so in the credits.). This little movie needs to be viewed more than once to appreciate it.

This is your typical slasher flick. It's always worth a rent just to see how stupid the teen victims will be (ex. never run up the stairs when the front door is just a few feet away).The story relies heavily the classic urban legend about the hook wielding mental patient stalking a couple on Lovers Lane, heck that basically the plot. The gore factor is virtually nil, since many of deaths (which are few) are off-screen deals. On the plus side, the heroine is resourceful (This is first one I've seen that can properly reset a broken leg). Also, all you "Scary Movie" fans should check out Anna Faris (who played the heroine in said movie) in her first slasher appearance. Trust me, it took me a moment figure out it was her. Overall, this movie is perfect for quenching anyone's need for a decent slasher fix.

Killer escapes from a mental asylum after 13 years and heads out to a small town's local lovers lane with a hook in tow to murder the teenagers who are having sex or drinking. A teen film that is nowhere near as slick as many of the other teen horrors of the late 90's. This film with a classic premise, features a grainy feel that adds to the realism and makes the film scarier and more exciting then it should be.

Rated R; Sexual Situations, Nudity, Graphic Violence, and Profanity.

I usually like low-budget slashers, if they are fun, scary, and have good gore. Well, this stupid video pic was very dry, slow, badly-acted, and the ending was sooo confusing and the script was sooo bad...I could go on for hours about how terrible this movie is. True, it tries to seem more like an eighties slasher bash rather than the more modern "Scream" bullc***, but it still doesn't work and I just didn't like it at all.

Of course, we've heard the story before, a killer on the loose trying to kill the teens in the town. Some survive, some don't. The killer here has come back after 13 years, to kill the children of the victims he killed 13 years before. Original ha? The actors in the movie are not so good, but they're better than some. Anna Faris stars here and she's quite good. (You might know her from Scary Movie 1 & 2 and let me just say she looks much better with brown/black hair.) Riley Smith is okay too. The movie reminded me just a little of Cherry Falls. (Cherry Falls, is a great movie, so that's not a bad thing.) Lovers Lane, (It's called, I'm Still Waiting For You, here in the UK) is definitely a good movie, especially one for a straight to DVD/Video - TV Movie and I give it a 7/10.
