Slaughter Day

Better than RoboCop

Extremely deranged from start to finish with it's excessive gore and trippy camera work.

Even as an early 90s film, it has a very Y2K look to it that you'll know when you see it. I love the rural vibe of the film.

The practical effects here are outstanding and so are the fountains of blood spray. The cinematography really fits the vibe of the film and you can tell that the filmmakers were having loads of fun with this.

The runtime is really tight, so the film never feels like it drags.

The lead actors are really good and there's a chase scene towards the end that I absolutely loved.

I need to check out more SOV horror!

Fucking so fun. You can hear the director say, “go!”, “now!”, and “get out of the picture!” upwards to 20 times. Backyard wrestling quality fight scenes that go on for an eternity but never really get boring. The grainy ass over-saturated camcorder does the nature of Hawaii so much justice and these kids really did some daring, ill-advised stunts to make for some very memorable set pieces.

Creatively shot, delightfully campy tone, and some genuinely wild kills/effects given the $10 dollar budget that was canonically spent on 2 cheeseburgers. Inspiring shit that reminds me anyone can make a cool ass movie. 

Also, the villain’s name is Jon Jones, who they refer to as “that asshole Jon Jones” and as an MMA fan that is very funny and resonant to me.

Fun little shot on video which actually had some impressive sfx for the kind of movie it is. And most shots beginning with the director saying directions such as “Go” was a nice touch 😂
