Steinesongo Too many fans seem to be blown away

BlazeLime Strong and Moving!

WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Bezenby Although I've seen this referred to as being similar to Friday the 13th, this film really reminded me of The Mutilator - right down to the amount of victims and the middle aged murderer already being in the house. That said, no one here played a game of hide and seek for no reason.Five annoying youngsters (including one whose dialogue consists of "Whoo" and "Party") head of to some cabin for a bit of boozing and the usual slasher shenanigans, not know that there's a bald killer called Steve in the house who's not averse to doing a bit of housekeeping in between murdering teenagers. At first I thought he should have paced himself as he goes through victims rather quickly, but then I realised that the film had a few tricks up its sleeve.There's a lengthy stalking sequence later in the film, part of which seems to have been lifted wholesale from Sergio Martino's Torso (they thank him in the credits), and the last ten minutes or so come way out of nowhere. Plus the film's short and rather nicely filmed, so you can't go wrong here.

Paul Andrews Murder Loves Killers Too starts as five teenage friends make their way to an isolated cabin in the middle of the woods that they have rented for the weekend. Once there Lindy (Kat Szumski) goes missing & soon after the other's start disappearing too, it seems that a overweight balding man named Stevie (Allen Andrews) is hiding in the cabin & killing the teens off one by one. Eventually only Aggie (Christine Haeberman) is left, Stevie manages to capture Aggie & plans to put glasses on her so she looks like his daughter & have sex with her as you would. Aggie has a negative reaction to this idea & tries to escape...Written & directed by Drew Barnhardt I am not really sure what his intention with Murder Loves Kilelrs Too was but quite simply I thought it was awful in every aspect. First of all the title Murder Loves Killers Too makes no sense, it means nothing in context with the film itself & is maybe the most annoying title for a film ever. Right, the first fifty odd minutes of Murder Loves Killers Too is your standard teen slasher flick, a group of clichéd American teens arrive at an isolated cabin to enjoy a weekend of drink, drugs & sex as some maniac kills them off. The cabin only ever seems to have three rooms & the small proximity of the cabin makes any sort of tension impossible as no-one is ever more than six feet away from one another & the dumb scene of Stevie walking around the pool table that Aggie is hiding under is ridiculous, he would have been able to see her as he came up the stair let alone walk around. The first four teens are killed off very quickly before a lame sequence where Stevie stalk's Aggie (why doesn't she grab something to protect herself? Why doesn't she ever ask where her friends are?) before the final twenty minutes where Stevie returns to his normal life & Murder Loves Killers Too turns into a soap opera with affairs, unruly kids & money trouble taking center stage before what I suppose is considered a twist but it very obvious if you think about it. At only 74 minutes in length (including opening & closing credits) at least it's short but regardless of the duration it's still crap.Stevie the middle aged fat killer is deliberately portrayed as a normal person which is where the final twenty banal minutes comes in I suppose rather than some superhuman undead killer but he comes across as really dull & totally stupid too, he never uses gloves & just who's cabin was it? Was he planning the whole thing? What does the fact it was his birthday have to do with anything? There's little to no motivation & the whole thing feels empty as Stevei is seen right away so there's no mystery about who is the murderer although there's plenty of mystery about why he's a murderer which is never clarified. There's a bit of blood splatter & someone gets their tongue ripped out but apart from some close-up shots of stabbings nothing else. There's a bit of nudity too but someone should tell the makers that for two people to have sex both need to take their clothes off & not just the girl. The production values are cheap, despite having all the woods to play with the makers never leave the confines of the cabin & at the end when Aggie jumps out of Stevies boot & attacks him it's open yet in the next shot it's closed so there's blatant continuity errors as well. The director even has a stab at a bit of pretentiousness as there's a strange shot of a dead Bee in a sink which Stevie stares at for ages & hears buzzing for no apparent reason & there's totally random narration at the start to set things up but then there's never any more.Shot in California on what must have been a low, low budget Murder Loves Killers Too looks cheap & feels cheap with watery blood, nothing in the way of proper special effects & an unknown cast who bring next to nothing to their roles.Murder Loves Killers Too is an awful film, it's a terrible teen slasher with little gore or tension & a totally banal climax that feels like it's edited from a totally different film. I am not keen on modern horror & this is just the type of film that showcases why.

superdense dunno why this has a low average score, it's a very decent low budget horror film, just the right length, an 80s vibe to it, and it's gotta be said the music and sound is ace...sometimes music makes a movie, and in this case it's very true...the same film with crap music and sound design would've been pants...there's a great little whistling motif tune running through the whole thing and giving it a cheeky slant... yep i can't really fault this film - for what it is it's a fantastic way to use up an hour and a half of your precious horror movie loving life, not too much preamble before the nastiness gets underway either - Cloverfield did the preamble really well but since then it seems that all the new big budget horror films spend a lot of time hanging about with really unlikeable characters for the first half of the movie before they start getting bumped off. Not so with Murder Loves Killers.... Overall, two severed thumbs up!

SweetCakesTruck This movie is great if you are into the camp of the 80's slasher movies. It's got a humorous twist on the conventional form but is loaded with dialog that fits the genre as well as if it'd come out of an old Friday the 13th movie. The acting is very much in line with the bulk of 80's slashers but the lead girl is solid and has a great scream. The killer, hope that doesn't spoil anything, but there's a killer, pulls off the part with a funny deadpan take. The movie is scary in places, but the character keeps it pretty funny throughout. It's obviously a budget movie, but the camera work is sharp and there are some cool panning long takes and well orchestrated shots. Overall, I give it a 10 for the genre. Good entertainment.
