Diagonaldi Very well executed

Clevercell Very disappointing...

Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

A_Different_Drummer Let's start with country of origin.Lately the "smart" thing to do with Canadian movies is label them as US and hope no one notices. This is an attempt to remove Canadian films from the stigma of "for the money" productions which invariably results in some of the worst quality product in the history of the medium.(Here is an FYI -- the Canadian film industry was created by an eccentric "consultant" to a former Canadian parliamentary Secretary of State who worked for $1 a year and wrote the original white paper explaining how tax incentives could be used to kick start an industry. That was in the 1970s -- and the Canadian industry has been trying to hide from its crude origins ever since.) The movie is much much better than the reviews suggest. To start with, it takes brass balls (which BTW is a nautical term, look it up) to even attempt to combine a slasher film with a musical, and cast it (save for Driver and the irrepressible Meatloaf) with unknowns.But the ultimate test of any film is, and always will be, does it entertain?, does it connect?, and here the production is consistently of high quality and yes indeed it is a fun watch.This is also a "Lantos" pedigree film, which is meaningful only if you are student of Canadian cinema, a fact (as above) this film tries to hide.Recommended.In fact, if the film ever decides to come out of the closet, it is one of the most interesting Canadian efforts ever.

rps-2 I'm still not sure whether this was a drama,a comedy, a horror flick, a farce or a musical. It improbably combines elements of each. It's not a very memorable film. But it is unique and well done. The special effects are good if you like guts and gore. The cinematography is original and creative. The acting is melodramatic but thats what it's supposed to be. And, odd as it is, it's nice to see some Canadian creativity and originality instead of the usual Hollywood clone. (We live in Muskoka. Some of this film was done in nearby Parry Sound and in North Bay. But I'm wondering whether the summer camp was actually the college at Rosseau at the north end of Lake Rosseau. The school buses in an early scene were labelled "Hammond", the company which operates most of the school buses in the district.) Decidedly one of the most peculiar movies I've ever seen. Although it is not entertaining, it is interesting!

FlashCallahan The film starts with Minnie Driver being stabbed in the throat several times after a performance of Haunting At The Opera.Flash forward several years, and her two children are still traumatised by the act, but they are at performing school, which is being run by Meatloaf, and guess what the production is this year? Yep, it's Haunting, but with an oriental twist......It's like Glee meeting Friday the 13th by way of Repo! And its a pretty good attempt at something different, albeit very, very odd at times.But it's been done before, thanks to Repo! And the music was a lot better in that movie, so this, because its trying so hard to be different, seems so old because that film did it six years earlier.But it's still fun, and its retro feel gives more of a nod to Sleepaway Camp, and Slaughter High, rather than Elm Street an other well known slasher flicks.The big reveal isn't much of a twist. And the gore isn't a problem, but it's well acted, and never outstays its welcome.

Faiz Lone This is, by far, one of the worst movies I've ever seen. It's only second to the queen of bad movies, Spring Breakers. The main actress looked like she was doing this role to feed her crack addiction. I noticed something different in this movie from all the others. The murdering of young teens. Most slasher films I've seen usually don't have 13 and 14 year old kids being murdered.... I'm not sure if this film is pioneering a new generation of slasher films like from back in the day or it was just terribly made. I just find it hard to believe I managed to watch the whole movie. Although, I do see it as a skill of mine to make it through piles of garbage, like this movie. I can't believe someone actually paid to have this movie made. Although I can't say I was sad to see the singing children go. :)
