Halloween Party

Halloween Party is really mild in the horror department even for a TV14 rating.

Nothing I recall was very scary or gory.

I thought this was above average for a "supernatural teen slasher comedy" and I enjoyed it, but if I came in expecting a serious horror movie then I probably wouldn't have liked it. In the end I was torn between 5-6.

They had a lot of opportunity to do more, and it felt a little low budget at times, but the majority of it still looked pretty good.

Watched this little film last night and came away happy and satisfied from it but still was bugged by the last twenty something minutes and really bugged by the ending.

Why? Well when things happen to the three guys at the party was very rushed and it showed on film, this I found spoilt the way the film had ran so far.

Then there was the ending, bit did I this spoil the whole movie, well almost. I think they could have done it a lot better and the low budget showed through this scene.

Overall I enjoyed this movie and yes I am glad that I watched it but I wish the producers and people involved in the movie would have shown it to a test audience first and then took notes.

Hopefully next time if they do a sequel maybe they can take this on board.

This film could have easily had a six rating rather than a four if they didn't mess up the second half.

This is a good popcorn film with some scares here and there. The acting was pretty good too which I was surprised. It's definitely a B movie with a cool ending.

This movie sort of rules. It's not a great movie by any stretch, but it does the best it can with what it has available (read: basically nothing) and I admire its ability to go for it.

A Halloween-themed computer virus spreads across a college campus via an internet meme wherein people are asked about their worst fears. Within 24 hours, those same people wind up dead, seemingly killed by whatever scared them the most. But who's really doing the killing, and why?

This movie channels a tiny sliver of old school Sam Raimi vibes. Not with his energy or slapstick, but in the tendency for his movies to embrace the inherent goofiness of their premise. This is a dumb movie, so dumb it can borderline on self-parody. Definitely dumb enough to be considered kind of trashy.

But then you get whiplash because it stops to take itself just seriously enough that you stay hooked. There's a delightfully weird spark this movie taps in to sometimes, and some decently tense moments. Rarely scary, mind you, but tense enough for a bit of mood. It works enough that I felt like I had a good time.

If this movie were a person, you'd tell it "You're a bad movie" and it would grin and reply, "I know, and that's why you love me."

And it'd be right. Dumb, trashy, bad, whatever you want to call it, but I had fun.

Caught this on Amazon Prime and I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. It was competently directed and edited, and had some witty banter, and enough blood to keep things interesting. Amy Groening does a nice job in this and I would love to see her get more exposure in a wide release film.
