SYFYguy Shredder like any classic horror film incorporates, hot chicks, sweet deaths, snowboarding, and a giant snowplow with no regard for human life. Viewers will be thrilled by not only the skill of the of the urchins and skys (Johnny Tsunami reference) but will also enjoy the suspenseful creative death scenes. It will keep you guessing throughout the entire movie with its complex and original plot!The best scene by far is the final death sequence which will plow your mind! I recommend watching this scene in slow motion to get the full effect of this carnage. Shedder is sure to entertain audiences of all ages and is cool as the other side of the mountain.
vegeta3986 yeah, i know, i know. but it was too tempting. anywho let's get onto the review. Walking into this movie i knew it already had something in its favor. and that is the fact that it wasn't released by Lionsgate. pretty much EVERY independent horror movie i've rented from Lionsgate has sucked ass. and since this was from MGM, i already assumed something decent was around the bend. And sure enough, for a slasher, Shredder was not terrible. Sure it was a copy paste of every slasher movie out there, but this time, there was SNOW! yeah, i know that's not much of a difference, but hey. i like snow.Not much to tell in terms of plot here. Group of friends go to an abandoned ski resort, townsfolk tell em not to do it, they don't listen, and they start getting picked off one by one by this... ski ninja looking dude. Of course at the end we find out that it's really a chick. And there's really no reason why she killed anyone... other than the fact she likes "death to snowboarders" bumper stickers. (shrugs) But regardless, it has some decent effects for kills, the slutty bitch who cheats on her boyfriend gets owned (THANK GOD) mr fake french dude gets shoveled in the back of the head. haha. awesome. and surprisingly, the girl we supposedly think is the dike turns out not only to be straight, has a crush on the main guy, and manages to live to the end of the movie. That really surprised me. and that's where this movie got some major points. That actually was original and cool.While having a HELL of a lot of plot holes and scenes that make no sense, Shredder actually isn't a bad movie. If you're in the mood for a mindless slasher, you may want to rent it. not necessarily BUY...but rent.Showing that women can be serial killers too, Shredder gets 5 ninja turtle characters, out of 10
Andrew Jakiel Going into this movie and knowing that it was going to be a typical B movie slasher film I didn't set my expectations that high. I also wasn't surprised when I was introduced into the typical cast of this genre. There was the whore, the stoner, the nerdy kid, the less of a whore girl, the main male character, and of course the "good girl". And for the most part the acting in this movie wasn't bad enough to make me shove red hot pokers into my eyes after watching the movie. In fact a lot of the scenes were comical and I definitely had a good laugh at the expense of the characters on screen.Like most slasher movies you get a good sense of who is going to "get it first". I almost considered giving this movie a better rating 3/4 of the way into the movie.Without giving too much away the advice I give to those out there that are seriously thinking about renting this movie is to turn it off before the last chapter. You will thank me later and be spared the sight of one of the worse special effects I've seen in a long time. I mean did they really think that it looked good in the editing room or that it would look remotely realistic to the viewing public? The only explanation I have is that either the editing staff was high when they reviewed the footage or simply ran out of funds near the end of the movie. But then again you get what you pay for and I'm glad I didn't pay much. I'm sure my DVD player will require extensive therapy after being force to subject itself to the punishment that is known as Shedder.
Woodyanders Okay, please stop me if you've heard this one before. Seven totally obnoxious and unlikeable beer-chugging, snowboard-surfing, sex-obsessed party hearty college coed kids decide to spend a weekend of fun and frolics at a remote abandoned ski lodge. Naturally, they trespass, do drugs and make out. Of course, they ignore the local townspeople's warning that said lodge may be haunted by the spirit of a little girl who was accidentally killed in a tragic accident a while back. And, biggest surprise of all, some murderous mystery maniac proceeds to viciously bump off the wholly deserving chowderheads one at a time.This entertainingly tacky and silly by-the-numbers body count slice'n'dice fright flick starts out a little slow and clumsy, but steadily improves and gains momentum as it goes along. Director/co-writer Greg Huson fails to build any tension or create a creepy atmosphere, but he does keep the pace moving forward at a steady clip, stages the nicely gruesome murder set pieces with a reasonable amount of flair (gory highlights include two beheadings by steel wire, a hanging by scarf from a ski lift, and an especially nifty impalement by icicle), and elicits acceptable performances from an attractive cast of young unknowns. Better yet, the female cast members are all smoking hot (luscious brunette looker Holly Towne in particular is a major babe who even bares her tasty bod in a fairly steamy sex scene), the snow-covered wintry landscapes look gorgeous, and there's plenty of choice stupid dialogue ("I don't ski - I shred"). Charles A. Schner's polished cinematography, Alan Derian's spooky score, and the occasionally snazzy MTV-style flashy jump editing are all likewise up to par. Granted, this sure ain't anything terribly special or remarkable, but this pleasingly modest little piece of low-budget horror junk does the trick all the same.
