Listonixio Fresh and Exciting

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

hddu10 Sadly, from time to time certain people emerge who are so completely devoid of talent...a metaphorical untalented black-hole if you will, that sucks any/all semblance of talent from anyone and everyone who participates in their endeavors, to the extent that even someone as great as Sir Lawrence Olivier would be unable to withstand the suction. David DeCoteau would epitomize this phenomenon. Watching what amounts to an extended Abercrombie and Fitch ad, it would seem the basic plot here is athletic men undress and shower in slow motion, with an increasing emphasis on camera-zooms to their torsos (but don't worry...even though this is obviously gay-themed, there is absolutely NO nudity of any sort to worry about). The music crescendos during the shower scenes seem to provoke several emotional reactions from the viewer; "Wait! Is he going to use a conditioner? Oh, no! There's no luffa sponge in sight!" Just a mess. Don't bother.

rgcustomer I liked this film, which I guess makes me unusual.The only other DeCoteau film I've liked (not that I've seen even half of them) was The Brotherhood.This one is better. There's only one female character, and she's not on the screen much. The guys are all hot, and the camera lingers lovingly over all of their best parts.While some of the actors have worked only with DeCoteau, the actor playing Travis has also gone on to work with others (TV episodes, The Thaw).The plot is the minimum required for a horror film about a knife-wielding revenge murderer. There are some good moments here, beyond the eye candy. For his second revenge murder, Travis spends minutes running that knife up and down Emery's sleeping body, but the second Emery wakes up, Travis's mood changes from almost sexual fascination with the knife, to blankly noticing the waking Emery, to pleasure going for the kill.I will grant that most scenes are too long, maybe by 3-5 minutes each, and that this movie would have been better around 60 minutes in length. If hot young men aren't your thing (of if you were expecting porn) then you might be too bored.

shakirrahman19 Warning: Spoiler!! This review is written just for fun! By no means this is to be taken seriously. I do not mean to offend anyone through this review.Okay, so it starts off with a lady getting killed by a group of amazingly charming young lads (if I were to be killed, this would be the way to go....sigh!). The repercussion of this incident majorly screws up the sexuality of her twin brother. He starts running through the woods all day in red boxer briefs, and only stopping to simulate intense murder actions with a knife which he sharpens on a rock every now and then. At night, he gets kinky, have (incestuous, phantasmal) wet dreams about her sister (....ewww! New level of perverseness!!), and have sex with the previously mentioned knife (kinky!!). After a couple of repeats of this same weird sequence, he finally gets ready to avenge his sister's death. To find out who killed his sister he does the most amazing planchat ever. He strips naked, sits in a Buddha stance (showing nice fuzz in the process!!) and passionately calls on the spirit of her dead sister. The spirit of her sister reveals the name of the murderers, but considering that only the names would not get his brother far, she also shows him what they look like (the most logical thing in the whole movie, how ingenious!!). Now full of murderous rage, the brother starts tracking down the killers one by one and starts killing them off. But here's the fun part...he likes to watch the amazing gorgeous guys run in their shorts all day, and only when they get tired and get back to their lodge (btw this is all happening in a camping lodge...I guess that's why it's so easy to find all the killers) does he attack and kill them. But you can't simply just kill them!!! No, that would be too straightforward and logical. He is a sexually screwed up guy after all. So before every murder he has a threesome with the victim and (guess who??) the super-kinky knife!!! He gets bolder, and kinkier with each murder. During his last murder some dude finds out what he is doing which starts a new series of chain-of-events regarding more boys in briefs running around...(the guys run a lot in this film, which made me think - is running guys a huge popular turn-on?). At this point I got really bored and quit...Seriously, you can only stand to be teased by super-hot young boys running around in their shorts for so long!!

rob_h Beware: Spoilers.I've always enjoyed David DeCoteau's films. They have an appealing formula that turns on a superficial and vaguely supernatural plot usually involving a group of guys, one of whom is innocent and nice and gets seduced (or nearly so) into evil by another guy. (Of course, all the guys are young and ripped.) There's usually a girl or two, and inevitably she gets involved in some kind of elaborate quasi-orgy scene with the innocent guy, the evil guy, and his flunkies. (During this scene the flunkies help the good guy undress and then watch him make out with the girl while they watch and touch themselves.) Sometimes shots are replayed in slow or fast motion. David DeC claims that he makes his films for girls and keeps everything suggestive, even the violence, for a teen audience.This time around, a guy's twin sister has been brutally murdered and he avenges her death. We don't know why she's killed. There's almost no dialogue. The main character works out and rubs a knife on his body. Then he magically finds each of the killers, spends a long time looking at them and sometimes rubbing the knife on them, then kills them. We never really see any stabbing, but we do get to see long, long sequences where he runs the knife over the other guys' bodies. (The one I'm watching now feels like it's been on for 10 minutes.) Did I mention there's hardly any dialogue? The whole film kind of reminds me of Derek Jarman's The Angelic Conversation. Kind of a more commodified version. Worth a look or two.
