6/10
Less is More
4 July 2020
Shot on Staten Island NY, premiered in Charlotte NC, changed name twice, this is undoubtedly one of the cheapest movies I've seen, but considering all the budget restraints, surprisingly effective. Should be called "The Horny Ones", with all the shots of naked couples in single (guess they couldn't afford doubles) beds., sexy but without much gratuitous nudity (sorry guys). What struck me most was, maybe because of the very dark and damaged print I saw, but using of quick shots and cutaways, and eschewing the use of phony plastic prosthetics, the horror clips were some of the most genuinely horrifying I've seen. Meantime,in most slashers, cameras dwelling on obviously artificial effects have reduced horror to humor. Nothing's really scary anymore. Considering the overall cheapness, not quite 7, but definitely a solid upper 6. Can hardly believe it myself that I'm recommending this, but I am!
