Before people get all crazy, the above rating is on, overall, how good a movie it was. It was somewhat clear, and had some funny/creative moments in it. Now, for more specifics.The Cons: This movie drags. It's about an hour and a half, and if this is the only entertainment or focus for the time you watch it, it will be hard to resist turning it off. However, if you're having a get together or friends over or something like that, this would be fun. The acting is bad. The special effects aren't good. And it's nowhere near scary or disturbing.The Pros: (1) At one point, there is a fight between two cheerleader squads. I've never seen a horror movie with two cheerleader squads, much less two of them duking it out. (2) Ron Jeremy is the killer. It's really nice to see this guy branch out, clean his image up a bit for the kids. (3) There's this guy who's always screaming for mercy. He's been severed at the waist, and he asks for people to kill him. He's like a mini, hugely-apparent easter egg every time he shows up. (4) The end, while somewhat boring, gets points for creativity. Let's just say that Holy Urine used to condemn a butcher to hell, well, that's pretty funny. (5) Oh, yes, and the narrator: an old guy playing the harmonica as he uses modern vernacular. Pretty priceless.Conclusion: If you're looking for a good piece of film or a thrill, do not get this movie. If you're looking for a good, half-brained, 'interesting' piece of horror to keep on while doing something else, it might be worth checking out.

If you like slasher movies and would like to enjoy a refreshing gore-and-boobies movie, this is for you. From the incredibly creative minds of Phil Cruz and James Hyde comes this witty humorous horror flick. How funnier can you get when you have Ron Jeremy feeding off his own flesh, who staples his arm back to his body after being blown away, and who summons chubby girls to their death by suspending a donut from a tree? Young men with hard peckers, scantly clad cheerleaders, blood and guts. It's raw, it's indie, it's here. Now it is what it is so be aware this is not a made-for-Oscar flick. The best way to enjoy this movie is by gathering a few friends, eating a wide variety of potato chips and knocking back a few cold ones.

I can completely understand other reviews saying it was horrible. The acting and script was ridiculous. There was a random lesbian scene involving chili being licked off toes, peaches and Vienna sausages. The "foxy Cleopatra"esquire deputy used words like Jive Turkey, I'll baste this turkey and sucka also the male cheerleader called people dingle-berries. The convicts called people ass-clowns and they were also ridiculous.Given all that, somehow, I liked it. It was funny and I think (or at least hope) that it was meant to be. I gave it a 4 because it was entertaining to watch on an October afternoon. There certainly are millions of better movies out there though!

So, the guys at KillerReviews.com are all over this film, praising it and kissing the director's buttocks in an interview. The review says you have to have a sense of humor to appreciate it. Well, let me say I saw the humor but was still let down unparalleled.This review is a companion to my review for "The Janitor" because there is a difference between good bad horror and bad bad horror. This is simply bad (unlike "The Janitor").The writing I think is decent, because the idea is classic horror: cheerleaders, slasher, cops, etc. But the execution was awful. The acting was very weak and the characters took themselves very seriously even though they have no skills. The music made no sense and was more of a nuisance than anything half the time (especially because it was much louder than the vocal track of the film).Some scenes made no sense. Particularly, the television scene. I guess since the film has a supernatural element to it that we can invent ways this makes sense, but I really don't want to work that hard on thinking about this. Also, the scene where the main character finds out how to stop the monster... I do not understand.The things the Killer Review guy liked: the eyeballs and the scabs... very disappointing and completely unscary and unrealistic.Even the nudity was a sham. Whiel there does exist one scene that is quite sexy, overall the women in this film are played up to be a lot more attractive than they actually are. In another review I read the girls were "homely" and this is a fair assessment. (I normally do not judge actresses on their bodies, but when you are cast as a stereotypical sexpot cheerleader and you are only average looking, the casting director really dropped the ball.) I enjoyed Ron Jeremy reattaching his arms. I enjoyed him giving the "field goal" sign when hitting people. I enjoyed the chili scene. I absolutely loved April Billingsley, who was by far the only really decent actress or actor in the movie. And I liked how the monster was defeated (don't worry, no spoilers). But these things simply were not good enough to overcome all the shortcomings. Sorry.Watch this film at your own peril. Rent or buy "The Janitor" instead.
