Too much of everything

Awesome Movie

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

I agree with other reviewers that the music is atrocious, just awful and ruins the movie. Also, I wish low budget films would STOP using a flashing screen. If you have to use a flashing screen to get a mood across, you've already failed. It's almost as if this director has more equipment to make a film than he needs and tries to use it to mask lack of creativity. For an Independent film, it isn't the worst I've seen. I thought the film looked good and the acting wasn't horrible. The plot isn't that original and the movie is slow. But all in all not a bad effort.

Sometimes I think the general public does not know the meaning of real "indie" films. A list celebs do "indie" film which are still backed by LOTS of money. With that said Slasher.com is a true indie horror film. For those of you that have short attention spans or a need to see blood spattering every ten seconds this is probably not a film you will like.Instead you will get character development and subtle context in the dialogue. This one is a slower burn and draws you in. There is a discomfort in the film I love. You know something is off with certain characters but can't pinpoint what it is. The last 25 minutes of the film are brutal and does a good job of trying together everything you've watched.It's fun, sexy and has good performances. Def worth a watch.

They don't get much worse than this POS. Seems there's a serial killer on the loose somewhere around St. Louis. He advertises on social media to find his prey. Cut to a scene of a couple meeting for the first time, and they decide to get back to nature for a weekend. Yawn.The acting (or lack thereof) in this movie has to be seen to be believed; it's THAT bad. The "plot" reminds me more a "let's pretend like" game you played when you were small children. Nothing makes sense, and if that isn't bad enough, you have to listen to these people talk. Awful as all get-out; however, I did learn all sorts of new things to do with a silver spoon....

The Plot.A dive into the deep waters of classic horror films updated with novel, unanticipated plot twists. The film blends legendary horror actors (Jewel Shepard, RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD and R.A. Mihailoff, Texas CHAINSAW MASSACRE III) with fresh faces on the film scene (Ben Kaplan, Morgan Carter, and Rebecca Crowley). Hazards of modern technology lead the characters into a dark, remote, isolated backwoods far away from the trappings and safety of suburbia or city life. There they encounter a family like no other.Not really all that good. It's another one of those flicks that thinks loud music is going to excite you. It makes me snooze.The direction is spotty and the production values are non existent.Did I mention that I REALLY hated the music?The woman in this film has the most annoying way of acting. She's very unemotional. But at least she gets naked for a bit. But she basically goes thru her scenes reading the lines as if from a book.Did I mention that the music REALLY sucks?About 20 minutes into this film I started fast forwarding because it was really stupid and the music was annoying beyond belief. Whoever scored this film needs to be put in a box.In short the movie stinks and the music sucks.
