Rating: Summary: Don't Expect Too Much and Be Surprised Review: The acting is over-the-top. There are no surprises to be had with the movie. I picked the winner of this game show before they entered the "playing field" and soon figured out who the traitor would be. Still, it was very entertaining and different. I didn't expect much out of it, so I was pleasantly surprised. The quality is low, but it works in the context of this game show. And Chainsaw Charlie is pretty cool. If you don't expect too much, you should be pleasantly surprised.

Rating: Summary: Love it Review: This is one of the worst movies I have seen this year and that is why I like. The premise is one of the best I have seen and it has a good plot. The movie is about a Japanese game show where a group of six or seven people go into an arena with three serial killers and try to survive. The survivors win ten million dollars that they split, plus two million for every killer they kill. The game show is the world's most watched T.V. show and in the movie it is making its first appearance in America. The acting is not horrible but it is far from good. There are a few good actors in this movie but there also bad and mediocre actors as well. The death scenes are B-rate but are very good for the budget that the producer was on. Unless you are a fan of B-rate movies, don't buy this movie. If you are a fan of B-movies, go buy this movie because you will be laughing your head off. "Supercool"
Rating: Summary: SLASHERS is a winner, any way you slice it Review: This is simply one of the greatest independent films I have ever watched (and I have seen more than my share, trust me). Like Daniel Minahan's brilliant 2001 film SERIES 7: THE CONTENDERS, Maurice Deveraux's SLASHERS plays like you are watching an episode of a reality TV show. The fact that it's shot on video only adds to the effect of watching it on your television at home. However, this is where the similarities end, because SLASHERS is a straight-up horror flick that is tailor made for fans who want something new and exciting. The gore is endless and cartoonish, the scares and suspense are well-executed, and the acting is first rate (particularly Sarah Crowder's performance as one of the lead characters). Sometimes it feels like you're in a haunted house attraction, only the threat of death is real. To top it all off, SLASHERS is filmed as one continuous shot (like Hitchcock's ROPE and Josh Becker's RUNNING TIME), using all manner of tricks to fool you ... Given the conditions Deveraux filmed under (and the extremely small budget), all this makes the film an even greater cinematic achievement. I was falling asleep when I put this movie on, but was wide awake for its entire 99-minute running time! I really got into it. A truly incredible and original film indeed.The DVD release is also excellent, featuring animated menus, full length commentary, an hour-long documentary, and more. (And no, I don't work for the people who made this movie).
Rating: Summary: Did we watch the SAME movie? Review: This movie is AWFUL, the acting is HORRIBLE, the sets are really AMATEURISH, the gore and blood level is high but so FAKE LOOKING that i really didn't care...and did i mention the acting? Oh, i did..well it's 80% of why i almost couldn't finish off watching this movie. Ok, enough with the insults..there are some good things about this film that i ACTUALLY liked!! -THE STORY...original but couldv'e been better with a bigger budget, different producers, and sorry Canada..but maybe a US film studio filming it. -THE GIRLS...while most were good-looking, they were also very annoying especially the japanese host and the female contestants. -THE FRIEND - Yes, i knew someone in this film (Jerry, he played the character "RICK") that was kinda strange seeing that i bought the film without knowing he was in it. Hmmm... maybe he didn't anyone to know! So that's it, you've been warned!!!
