avo4077 The B-horror movie seems to be going away. Long gone are the days of picking up a couple of "scary" movies from your local video store, buying some beer and inviting friends over to pick the movie apart. Today's B-horror either tries to be B-horror(thus losing the charm) or is so terrible and boring that there is nothing to make fun of. This film is the best laugh I have had in a while. It is just interesting enough to keep you keep watching and although I feel it does make fun of itself purposely on a couple of occasions, it is just serious enough to get the laughs going. For a B-movie to be funny, the golden rule is that the audience feels that the director has a masterpiece on his hands. No spoilers here: but the best laughs come from the bar scene in the beginning of the movie(particularly the "John" character), then later a female who keeps having a pain and describes it in detail, a certain character's sleeping apparel, the best stereotype of a yuppie jock in horror movie history(seriously) and the flying ax. That is just to name a few. Invite friends over, pour some refreshments and enjoy. This is as good as it gets for horror fun at the film's expense.

FilmFatale There are some decent "killer redneck" movies, and even some that are bad enough to be fun. However, I didn't find any reason for Pelt to exist. The first problem, as many have mentioned, is that the seven main characters (three crude hot chicks and four crude bros) are completely unlikable in their establishing scenes. They are rude and horrible to every single person that crosses their respective paths. Therefore, we don't care whether they live or die - we actively want to see all of them get taken out. Which brings me to my second problem with Pelt - we don't get to see them taken out. Most of the kills take place just out of camera range, so after taking the time to set these characters up as the worst people on earth and making us suffer through spending time with them, we are denied our money shots - heck, even a nice close up of the aftermaths would be better than nothing. Finally, I am told that Pelt is supposed to be a horror comedy but the big problem with that is it's not funny. It's terrible, and there are times you can't do anything but laugh at what's happening on the screen, but there's a difference between laughing at and laughing with. There's plenty of stupid behavior and bad dialogue, but the whole thing is so inept that it's hard to tell what's awful for laughs and what's just poor script/performance/direction. It also fails as parody because it doesn't seem to have enough understanding of the slasher subgenre to effectively spoof it. I did feel generous enough to give Pelt a 2 instead of a 1 solely because of how the most horrid female character dies and for the zip-up onesie rubber ducky pajamas one character wears through most of the movie. There are many movies out there worse than Pelt, but that doesn't make Pelt worth sitting through.

Michael O'Keefe Maybe a little better than expected, but all the same this story is so predictable and not exactly original. The story is about a group of twenty-something friends (obviously played by actors thirty-something)taking a hiking trip in deep woods of Caveland, Kentucky. The hikers are warned by locals not to dare trespass on private property. This group is made up of party people, not nature lovers...not hikers for that matter. Gulp down some beers, take a toke or two and have some secluded sex; all interrupted by a crazed lumberjack. Let the gore, splatter, slice and dice begin. Fools that they are to leave civilization; there is no trip back home. Castmembers: Ashley Watkins, Travis Goodman, Sarah Zurell, Ryan Boone, Amber Bollinger, Justin Welborn and Larry Lallberte.

george-841 OK, it's a classic of the genre meaning the plot is lame and the whole film revolves around T&A and horror/suspense. The T&A isn't bad and while I agree with the above reviewers that Bollinger is cute all 3 of the girls are well worth watching. Enough that I looked them all up to see what other films they've done.The girl-on-girl necking scene, even if the two are faking it for the benefit of the hick gas jockey, alone is worth watching the movie---at least to about the 25min mark, where it takes place! This movie has one twist you don't see too often in slasher horror movies (BIG SPOILER WARNING HERE SO Don't READ BELOW IF SPOILERS BOTHER YOU...)NONE OF THE VICTIMS SURVIVE! Most slasher movies at least one lives, usually the most "innocent" of the girls.
