Funny how weeks work, yesterday, I was exhausted as I was
still recovering from the Hackensaw Boys, who put on a tremendous show at The
Rex on Wednesday. I know that I wrote on here. Hell, I could barely remember that
I did so. Tonight, after a small nap, I feel much better. I hope that feeling
carries over into tomorrow, as my birthday finally arrives. With the birthday
in the air, I decided to continue with the more comedic material I have watched
recently with Slashers Gone Wild! from 2006.
Plot/ In search of a headline that will make her a household name,
a reporter uncovers a forbidden world of decadent madness and murder. She
uncovers a horrific website where dark twisted souls upload footage of their
crimes. These demented monsters are competing for their spot as SLASHER OF THE
YEAR. Will she be able to withstand the gut-wrenching horror as countless lives
are vanquished before her eyes? Will the slashers be relentlessly slaughtered
by the demonic Kevin Tooler and his undead army of ghouls? Who will survive and
live to tell?
Cheesy B horror movies can be a mixed bag from good to
horrible. Fortunately, there are times where these low budget entries can be
more than just cinema fodder, they can at least be entertaining schlock. That
was the case with this one. Yes, technically (and functionally) it is bad. The
acting ranges from so-so to poor, the effects were laughable and the plot was exaggerated.
However, that is just fine with this one, as the comic elements were hilarious,
the gore was aplenty (even if the effects were low-grade) and as over-the-top
as it was, the entirety of the mess worked well together. In the end, this will
not win an academy award or even be confused with a good movie, but if you like
horror / comedy with outrageous (but cheap) gore, you may enjoy this one.
