Stef de Cloe And I liked it very much! David DeCoteau is cult. If you know him - or better, his movies - you will know approximately what to expect.Some mystery, some horror, but - in most of his films - always cute guys and some emphasis on the male body.Does this disturb? It doesn't to me, because I have seen most of his work.Of course there are some things in this film that are not credible, or not "correct" (someone noted the 90-ies clothing, where supposedly we have to be in 2005...), but hey, does this make a movie bad? Knowing David Decoteau and most of his work, I sat down, just relaxed and enjoyed Killer Bash for what it is.I'm even inclined to rate it a 8/10. Which I will do.
kelfstr2 after watching this movie i'm going to make a prediction:David decoteau is a tad bitter about being rejected by a frat when he attended college himself and he took his revenge by making this sh-tacular movie.p.s. why did it seem like everyone in this movie except the five frat guys were a) hideous and b) wearing clothes from the early 90's?p.p.s. go watch the scene at the party right when they hear a scream and run to the kitchen to find the hanged frat guy. look at the guy's reaction in the crowd standing in the lower right- hand corner of the screen. classic.
H vD Apparently everyone else who has commented on this movie restricts themselves to B-class (closer to D) movies only. In reality, anyone with standards might wish to rate this in relation to good movies and, consequently, give it the 1 star rating it deserves.I mean, where do I even begin??? Though I want to throw up on my keyboard, I'll give it a stab: 1. The plot was horrendous. A nerdy guy gets thrown over a balcony by a bunch of aggressive frat boys. Then, for no apparent reason, 30 years later another semi-nerdy girl takes out some library books previously owned by the original nerd and finds a map leading her to the basement where his class ring is in the middle the hallway (again, 30 years later!). Upon finding the ring she becomes quasi possessed with his spirit and, with red eyes ablaze, causes the death of the sons of the frat guys who killed the nerd. This all happens leading up to the big "Delta party" where, predictably, the rest of the sons die in pathetic ways to atone for the sins of their fathers. Why it takes 30 years to make this happen, or why revenge is exacted upon the sons and not the original perpetrators is beyond my comprehension. But then again, what should I have expected? 2. The over-the-top, absolutely ridiculous, and seemingly illegal homo-eroticism. Midway through this 'film' my fiancé and I picked up the DVD case to make sure we hadn't rented a soft-core porno. In 5 minute intervals (literally, you could set your watch by it) several of the young men would disrobe, run around, and during one memorable scene strip down to their boxers while pouring booze on one another while the others pranced with undone belts. In fact, I'm now watching the big party scene where three guys are dancing on a table in boxers while the rest of the college folk stand and drink. Apparently this is what Canadian fraternities are like.... Uh huh....3. The lack of understanding of college life is appalling. According to this 'movie' (sorry, but something of this caliber requires sarcastic quotations): colleges are attended by 20 people, soccer practices are held on the local green, guys lift weights shirtless on the same green (with weight benches and all), guys are initiated into fraternities by drinking a shot and dancing in their boxers (see point #2), girls are initiated through "hey do you wanna be in our sorority?"... "um, yeah"... "ok!", there is one administrator for the entire school, and the list goes miserably on.I could go on almost indefinitely but this 'movie' has already sucked enough time and brainpower from me. If you'd like to see a bunch of idiots prancing around shirtless, all the while cringing in wait for them to actually get naked, while listening to poor actors take part in a nonexistent plot then this is your flick.Don't say I didn't warn you....
aaxa264 I knew to expect a B-movie, but was surprised by the quality of the script, editing and camera work. The vast majority of B-movies often start out pretty good but break down by the middle of the script. This one does not. DeCoteau does a decent job on his movies, as his reputation has earned, and this one does not disappoint. Paula Shaw puts in the best performance of the cast as Janine Gordon (the counselor), but Raquel Riskin was a surprising treat in her first lead role. She has a presence on camera, is a looker, and may be one to watch in future roles. Of course, the majority of acting may be B-quality, but so much of how a performer or scene comes across is due to the directing and, even moreso, the editing and post-production work — all of which are directly related to budget. Shaw and Riskin, particularly, seemed able to rise above these obstacles and put in good performances nonetheless. This may be a low-budget film, but well worth the watch.
