Review of Ripper

Ripper (2001)
1/10
A Who-dunnit ? More like a Who'd watch it!
2 April 2002
Don't get me wrong,I love a myriad of horror styles, from the cheesy video flick through to pulsating realistic horror, but this flick was a stunningly poor piece of work that deservedly bypassed the cinemas the world over. Shamelessly borrowing elements of recent horror movie hits such as "Scream" "Copycat" and "I Know what you did last Summer", the film drags on interminably for nearly 2 hours with an assortment of laughable plot details, uphorent acting, a contrived soundtrack matched by the god-awful dialogue ( for example : "Shut up!" - "No, You Shut up!" ), the silliest love scene and a swag of horror movie cliches that even a spoof film wouldn't dare use due to familiarity. (The Phones don't work on a stormy night!). Even hanging in there to the film's climax doesn't deliver a modicum of merit, let alone sense. Instead, you're left wondering aloud, how in hell, this piece of garbage was ever produced.
