ivo-cobra8 This was an alright 80's horror flick and I like it but I do have problems with it. The only reason I watched this film was Amy Steel. I am a big fan of the actress and I love her to death in Friday the 13th Part 2 it is definitely in my top 3 favorite slasher Friday the 13th films series and I love her so damn much as Ginny Field! She was the best heroine in the slasher films in my opinion. Alongside with actress Lar Park-Lincoln from Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood I love this 2 actresses to death they are awesome heroine's from the 80's.Next month after 20th September I am getting all Friday the 13th movies on Blu-ray discs I purchased all 11 films. I do already have Freddy Vs. Jason and I have reviewed that film already. I also have A Nightmare on Elm Street Blu-ray collection which I am a fan of that horror franchise but I don't have any Friday the 13th movies in my collection. I just become a big fan of the franchise and I am so excited to get them. So after 20th September I will start reviewing all Friday the 13th movies all 11 films when I will re watch them again. That is why I just finished watching this movie today for my favorite actress Amy Steel. I love horror flicks from the 80's and my favorite werewolf film is The Howling that a lot of people hate and I just love how the film was directed and I love the filming locations in that movie.April Fool's Day is American mystery horror film directed by Fred Walton and it is filed with mystery, entertainment, intense and it is creepy film which the same time is terrifying with the humor around. I really miss these kind of films today, that are filed with mystery and humor around, the 80's films really had that. Today horror movies suck and they don't give 100% of them like this movie did.So the plot evolves around a group of college students on a weekend getaway at the island estate of their wealthy classmate, which is infiltrated by a killer.First Amy Steel as Kit Graham the main heroine is awesome and she does a very excellent solid job, her acting was awesome. Ken Olandt as Rob, Kit's boyfriend was just alright. Deborah Foreman as Muffy/Buffy St. John the twisted psychopath was a decent slasher assailant I liked her.These 3 cast of actors are the reason why this movie is so good, the death scenes are terrifying and in the first hour it goes very, very slow. It could have been faster the ending is great and it ends with a twist plot and a humor, but the same time to me, it come for as realistic. I know the death scenes were FX special effects they were shown in the movie. We see also a snake in the movie and it is a fake snake it is not real.The film was written by Danilo Bach who also wrote the story for Beverly Hills Cop alongside with Daniel Petrie Jr. who also wrote the screenplay for my favorite Eddie Murphy film, that is why this movie is so good. So the problems with the film I do have are: death scenes are not gory enough, we never see the assailant ever in the film I wish they would have showed that. I wish the death scenes would be more gory and scary that's all the issues I have. By the end it is alright horror film it has a happy ending and i like that in the horror movies. Amy Steel is a brilliant addition to the cast, a great heroine I love her to death in "Friday The 13th part 2" and I also love her in this, it's such a shame that she never became a big star, but she will always be remembered as a terrific actress in my heart. She was always my favorite lead heroine of all of the Jason movies, and yet again she plays the female lead in this which I was very happy with and again she was great. I wish I could meet Amy Steel and I wish she would have signed me Friday the 13th Part 2 poster I would really love to see that. But since I am not from US I can't meet her or get the poster signed from her to bed. She will always be in my heart.April Fool's Day is a 1986 American mystery horror film directed by Fred Walton and starring Deborah Foreman, Amy Steel, and Ken Olandt. The original music score was composed by Charles Bernstein.The film get's 9/10 I really love Amy Steel in this and I like the film it is fast paced entertaining film and goes fast around.

lorcan-61881 Aprils fools day for me was really confusing,by the title you knew the deaths or something would be a joke completely predictable. I watched the movie the first time and thought it was boring and crap. But I watched it again,it premieres on sky only on April fools day so I watched it again and when I did,I really liked it but the ending was so confusing. SPOILER!! The ending turned out when the two final people walked into the dining room all there friends were alive and well,the two found out it was all a joke and get angry but soon think it's funny and have a laugh and some drinks,then a girl goes up stairs and is stabbed and that was a joke. Ehhhhh OK.. A bit weird and annoying but anyway. April fools day was a OK horror film but I don't know if I really liked it.

bowmanblue Ah, where to begin with 'April Fools Day' – undoubtedly one of the silliest 'slasher' films ever made (and that's saying something!). The usual bunch of overly s*xed and obnoxious teenagers go on Spring Break to one of their houses, conveniently situated on an island – naturally with no escape (and, back in the eighties, they never had to make excuses for 'lack of cell phone coverage!'). Once there – surprise surprise – they start getting picked off one by one.Now, unlike other slasher films at the time, the killer is never seen (until the 'big reveal' at the end, obviously), making it like an early 'Scream' film and part 'who-done-it' as well as simple teen-chopping fun.If you're into your early slasher films then this one is worth a watch. There aren't any stars to speak of (are there ever?) unless you count an appearance from 'Biff' from the 'Back to the Future' films. Plus the death scenes aren't that well done (a bit of decent gore make-up here and there, but the obvious lack of budget does show sometimes). However, just because it isn't that gory (or well acted!) doesn't mean it's not fun.It kind of knows what it is (and what it's not – i.e. High-brow) and plays to its strengths. Without going into anything that may spoil it, it's actually quite clever here and there with a few things that you might not see coming.Naturally, it has all the flaws of the genre, such as the nice girl surviving longest and anyone who has s*x dies first, but if you're generally a fan of slasher films you've long since learned to forgive such traits and should be able to enjoy it for what it is – good, reasonably gory silly fun.

edwardrevans This movie is how can I say intriguingly bad in a way it's enjoyable to watch, and that's the key. It seems that the actors are overacting and hamming it up for the audience. Normally I would of switched the movie of like this as I did in Batman V superman, however I was hooked on how weird it is and where it was going. April fools day is shot like a home movie and acted such with random dialogue that never made sense, its the kind of film you would show a B movie party. It's difficult to review April Fools day without giving out massive spoilers as the movie title kind of does that anyway. April fools Day is as we shall say a Guilty Pleasure.
