Review of Sl8n8

Sl8n8 (2006)
4/10
hopelessly derivative plot, but done well enough
13 May 2007
Kristel (Victoria Koblenko) after a night out partying is on her way home with her father. He's angry that she keeps secrets from him and is not paying attention to the road which results in a horrible car crash which in turn takes her father's life. After the funeral Kristel goes on a tour of a mineshaft (Kristel's dad was working on a book about a serial killer, the mine being where said killer died). Long story short, the people taking the tour get trapped, they whip out a Ouija board for no reason whatsoever and release the body-hopping spirit of the killer. Yes, you've seen this scenario play out a thousand times or more. The film is hopelessly derivative and lacks any form of originality whatsoever. But what it lacks for them, at least it does it reasonably well. This is one of the films that when it's over, you won't think twice about. Victoria Koblenko is pretty hot though and it was a shame the makers of the film didn't put her 'talents' on display, if you catch my drift.

My grade: C-

Tartan's DVD Extras (R1): Making of documentary; outtake reel; theatrical trailer; and trailers for "H6", "Hillside Strangler", "Sheitan", "Bloody Reunion", and "Perth"
