Member Rating:  
Hostel director Eli Roth's genre-friendly Raw Nerve film group makes its gore-soaked splash with director Tim Sullivan's kitchy remake of Hershell Gordon Lewis' southern-fried splatter-fest. A drunken group of hard partying college-kids are in for a Spring Break they'll never forget when they take a tragic detour through the small southern town of Pleasant Valley. Greeted by the overzealous mayor (Robert Englund) and promised a wild time at the town's annual barbecue celebration, the initially-hesitant teens soon agree to spend the night when the citizen's down-home hospitality simply becomes too much to resist. But things are not what they seem in the timeless town of Pleasant Valley, and as the thrill seeking students begin to disappear one-by-one in the most gruesome of fashions, it soon becomes obvious that they are to be the main ingredient in Pleasant Valley's most tasty tradition. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    This movie was so weird, I couldn't turn it off. I caught it on Showtime flipping channels. I would say that it's a pretty bad movie overall. However, it's good in that bad kind of way if you enjoy exploitive horror flicks. It's somewhat funny at times. Robert Englund is pretty good in his role. But it was basically the over the top kill scenes that kept me watching this one. Each one was so ridiculous and gory, that it made me chuckle. So, don't expect a lot of great acting or humor in this, but it does provide plenty of gruesome shots if you like that stuff.

    Pretty silly movie, kind of fun and worth watching. It is still a horror, though, and does have a few gory parts. The tongue-in-cheek dialog and acting is really stupid, but funny at times.

    Yes   |   No
