"I thought ,when I bought this movie, that I was buying another slasher flick, of which I am a huge fan. This turned out not to be the case. This was not a horny young victims movie. It actually was well acted and well written. As a black man though, I must say,Oz, the black football quaterback, who was built like Hulk Hogan fought like Richard Simmons. Everytime someone raised their hand he lost conciousness. I did not expect a grown up performance from Joseph Lawrence. I was pleasantly surprised. This movie is more than the average slasher flick. I hope there is a sequal, but not to soon though. Maybe in the interim someone can teach Oz how to fight. Maybe if we were not saturated with "teens gone astray only to be cut up in their prime" movies, this one would have stood out more. I will certainly be watching this dvd again and again.I am also happy that this slasher flick is cleaner than most, not over sexed and over violenced."

"This movie has it's own high points and low points. The lead female character is no Jamie Lee Curtis but for what the movie is it's okay. It gives you the feeling of an eighties classic like "Prom Night" There are a few scenes that make you jump but thats's about it.
The not so good things are the fact that there is only one good and gory death scene in it. The rest just kinda' happen when your not looking. You kinda' think you know who the killer is but then you get surprised because the killer is someone unexpected. The acting isn't terrible but it could definently improve. There isn't any good scary music. And for all you ... viewers who watch horror movies for nudity your out of luck because there isn't any.
The cover is a little deceiving in the fact that it makes it look like some sort of "Scream" remake but it's not. It's your average straight to video slasher movie."

Not Great, but ok

"I got this movie on sale a couple years ago. It looked pretty good, but you know how most of that goes. I really lke movies like Scream, I thought it would be like that, but nope. This movie was a hundred percent perdictable. I knew everything that was gonna happen in this movie. From the first seen you can tell it's gonna suck. *Spoiler* The first seen has a guy walking down a dorm hallway, when he hears a door open and close and goes to check it out. The lights flicker (Wow how original) and a person... in a really, really stupid mask shows up and kills him with an ax. This is what happens throughout the entire movie. Don't waste your time or money. If you really want to see it i would suggest renting it... not worth more than 3.00 anytime!"

"Joseph Lawrence looks great in his new buffed up bod; the girls are also quite attractive, including the lovely Dorie Barton. Jeff Conaway looks like he's on Prozac, and we have Chad Allen as the seemingly strange bad boy. The pacing in the first part of the movie is very slow, and even when it picks up, it's with such erratic plot jumps that it's impossible to keep up with. By the bloody climax, we're told what the secret is, but what's the big deal? Manipulative, average acting, and no real surprises.
Rent, don't buy."
