Quotes

Tasha: [Standing in Darren's shallow grave] Look i'm sorry. I'm really sorry. We were just joking around. It was the others who didn't like you not me. I always liked you. Actually I kind of fancied you. I wanted to go out with you. That's the truth ok? I was just too scared to ask. I would have gone out with you... and maybe it's not too late?

User Reviews

Much better than Imagined

I saw it last night at a special preview. I will admit I only wanted to see it because of Alex P, but I was pleasantly surprised. I hate Horror films, but this was much more of a slasher film, and very funny in parts, which allowed you to relax and enjoy it.

The deaths are rather imaginative and only one was quite obvious what was good was that for most you could laugh through each death . The acting is good on a whole, but a couple of the main characters do need some acting lessons, the whole cast is quite young but they have been able to develop each character well.

This film will not be for everyone. It is very 'Skins' (teenager) orientated,as it uses a lot of slang and such. The plot is rather unrealistic but thats what makes it fun, anything could happen, and most things do.

I would recommend this to someone who isn't too bothered about what they are watching, who is up for a good laugh, but doesn't mind a bit of blood and guts.
