Ouch!!!: The History of Gutterballs, 31 October 2009
8/10
Author: (Tromafreak@aol.com) from Tallahassee, Florida

A bowling pin... in "there"? Is that makin's for quality Exploitation, these days? A semi-homage to I Spit On Your Grave, that comes off more like The Doom Generation, yet, somehow giving off a strong 80's vibe, including a mean-spirited tone you could cut with a knife, and brutal slayings, mostly involving genitals. Is that really what Exploitation has come to? Actually, yeah, that sounds about right.

The night after a heated disagreement (between rival bowling teams) turned horrible, graphic gang rape, the team of angry frat jocks and emo-new-waver kids take it to the lane one more time. These loud-mouth tools are too busy arguing, getting drunk, and trying to get laid to even notice that they're right in the middle of a massacre that could easily be described as gore-porn. Horror movies that won't let you root for the good guys are always hilarious. These people are just asking for it, and BBK is gonna give it to them!!

Just an angry, foul, bastard of a B-movie, with not one redeeming quality, message, or point to be had. In other words, bad taste lives!! I don't care how many times you've seen Pink Flamingo's, and I don't care if you thought Combat Shock was funny, Gutterballs ain't no joke!! At the very least, you will cringe, unless you're actually a killer yourself. In that case, you also might want to pick up a copy of Joe D'Amato's Beyond The Darkness, for a double feature straight out of Hell. And might I add, There sure are a lot of complaints about the so-called "F-word" being used too much in this movie. If you people are seriously worried about a little cursing in a movie that involves someone graphically killing two people who are right in the middle of a 69-ing session, then the joke is truly on you. So, if harsh, perverted subject matter, and graphic, ferocious killings ain't your cup of tea, then there's probably not a whole lot I could say to change your mind, which couldn't possibly be a negative thing, although, it is just a movie, let's not forget. It's not like Gutterballs is genuine snuff... right? Either way, If you consider yourself a half-way mentally balanced person, chances are high you will find Gutterballs to be sick and repulsive, and just plain unnecessary. I don't know, I thought it was pretty funny. 8/10
