Lack of good storyline.
Fresh and Exciting
Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
After an extremely badly lit double murder we move on to the meat of the movie, Ted (Director Ted Alderman) is a firefighter whom transfers out of New York to a small town, after stress from 9/11 gets to him. Jim (writer/co-director Jim O' Rear) is the only fellow firefighter who befriends him while the others think he's damaged goods. Not to soon afterwords those close to Jim start to die by the hands of a killer in firefighter gear.Tieing this low-budget slasher to the events of 9/11 is supremely tacky at best, so the less said of that plot point the better. The acting, while lousy, is somewhat forgivable given the sub-genre, but the mystery of who the killer is is painfully obvious from the get go and no amount of nudity (Jim beds the majority of girls in the cast, good use of writing/ co-directing there) or blood can keep the boredom of the film from creeping in. Also there was a 2 to three minute conversation in the film where the soundtrack totally overwhelmed the talking for no discernible reason whatsoever, that was just plain annoying.Eye Candy: Maria Kil shows boobs, butt & bush; Christy McMahan, Debbie D, Debbie Rochon, Latrice Shokunbi, & Lanee Landry get topless My Grade: D Where I saw it: Netflix online via Xbox 360
Oh, yes, let's start with a double ax murder to set the mood. Not happy campers are we? Soon, we get to the gratuitous sex and full nudity, courtesy of a new actress, Maria Kil. But, that soon stops for an off-screen death, followed by yakking at the firehouse and a great shower scene that ends with a pike right between the luscious melons. Yummy.Tits and carnage, real and dreamed, continue continuously.The wost part of the movie is the fact that you have to wait 48 minutes before Debbie appears. But, Oh, was it worth the wait! Unfortunately, lazy Jim O'Rear won't get his butt out of bed, so Debbie strikes out.That leaves him free to save the day and jump in another bed (Lanee Landry's).There wasn't a lot of gore, but there were plenty of good shows.
