Dead Tone Audience Reviews

Cleveronix A different way of telling a story
Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
fdiallo33 **SPOILER ALERT**The movie started out with a montage of a killing. It was edited with the opening credits. I'm not sure the reason behind this but it wasn't effective. It honestly annoyed me a bit.Fast-forwarding 10 years later the killer comes back to haunt the children that viewed the past murder. He begins stalking them. In one particular scene he watches them from across the street. This scene was poorly edited. When we are seeing the killer's point of view, its blue and blurry. The last time I saw anything lie this was in the beginning murder scene. I'm not sure the reasoning behind this. I think it was very redundant and unnecessary. On their way to the house, the students stop for a bathroom break. One if the students dresses like a clown and scares his friend in a bathroom stall. This is so cliché. Most slasher movies tend to do this. Later on after the killings, we come to find out one of the students was the killer and had a friend aiding him. This is a great plot twist. This was the only thing I enjoyed in the entire movie. The movie had a great concept behind it, but was poorly executed and had too many "cliche moments".
Mrssmiff As a fan of horror films, I seek out anything in the genre from big budget horrors to low budget indie ones... I have a particular liking for teen slashers though (and no, I'm not particularly young or male!)which this film falls into the category of. I found this film to be quite entertaining for what it was, decent acting, good camera work etc. Nothing new or innovative in the way the killer dispatches his victims, but the identity of the killer, for me anyway, was not immediately obvious. One complaint I did have is that in places, everything was so dark I couldn't see what was going on. I also feel that Rutger Hauer's character was wasted but that's probably because I am a fan of his and would have liked to have seen him on screen longer. Otherwise a decent effort.
jdollak Everything about this movie is standard stuff. Except for a few points. First, the killer in the first five minutes doesn't seem to have much motivation. Second, there are some really strange scenes. There are two scenes back to back that seemed to exist to promote condom use. It almost came across like it was product placement, although the idea may have been to insert a moral into the movie. Third, some of the characters are nearly offensive in how stereotypical they are. There's a gay character that exists to talk in a stereotyped fey voice. There are two black guys who talk and behave in a stereotyped "black guy" style.There's nothing compelling about the movie, but aside from these things, there's also nothing worth looking for.
johnslegers Put a bunch of typical (read : annoying) teenagers partying in a huge mansion, feed them with alcohol and sex and let an axe murderer ruin the party. That's pretty much the idea.Although there are some huge plot holes and the characters are too unlikable too care for, this didn't ruin the entertainment value for me. The atmosphere and style of this film is very reminiscent of "All the boys love Mandy Lane" as well as the old fashioned '80s slasher films. If this is what you're looking for, you're probably gonna enjoy this film. However, don't expect it to be anything more than that. It sure as h*** ain't no Shakespeare (to stick with the ghetto language of some of this film's characters).
