Oh, how the times have changed. In the days of my childhood, it was such a simple equation. Take a college setting, use some co-ed hotties as the main characters, add some dim-witted frat boys, and stir it up with a zing of Robert Englund, and you had instant slasher. Back in those days, it was couth to have at LEAST 2 or 3 shower scenes, slumber parties, co-ed camp-outs, or the like. But now? Oh, no. Now, Robert Englund is the guy in the trunk with more right angles in his arms and legs than Wes Craven ever intended, L.L. Bean parkas are the SURE sign of a killer (just like yellow fishing coats), and the co-eds are all sexologists and the closest we can come to a love scene is an on-line chat room. Bottom line: Scream, funny because it wants to be. Urban Legend, funny because it has no choice but to be.

This wasn't a good movie by any stretch of the imagination, but it was so badly done that I couldn't help enjoying it. They should have advertised this film as a comedy not a horror film. Whatever happened to the mandatory nude scene in horror films? All of the most recent horror/slasher flicks have come up completely empty on this important ingredient. The Noxzema girl must have been doing some serious weight training to allow her to throw guys around like that. I don't think I'm familiar with the urban legend about killing the talk show host while on the radio. Must be a new one.

Mad Matt

Urban Legends. Did you hear the one about the sweat shop on the North Mall and late at night if you look closely you can see the ghost of the first regulatory director typing away at his computer. Oh wait, Mase is not a ghost. He is just pale from lack of sunlight. Get outside man.

This movie was just bad. I don't mean a good bad like Wild Things or Starship Troopers. I mean a bad bad like I Know What You Did Last Summer or Palmetto. Note: Elena some day you will know the difference between good bad and bad bad.

Anyway this movie would have been a lot better if Ros had called up old buddy Bull from Night Court and gone out and kicked some ass... I do admit the best part of the movie was watching Dawson's Creek boy using the lines to try to get down Cybil's daughter's pants. I think that I may have to participate in another viewing just to get that whole speech down.. "My girlfriend. She died. She was really sick from the uh.. Syndrome."

Red Sonja

Make no bones about it, this was a crappy movie. And can someone please tell me who the dumb ass was that forgot the one ingredient which makes every crappy horror movie worthwhile... GRATUITOUS NUDITY! I mean at one point we have an appropriately trashy young blonde being chased around campus by the usual psycho, and she's FULLY CLOTHED! They tease us at one point in the chase when her spaghetti stringed top to begins to slide a little, but in the end we are left feeling like a left over noodle, cold and without definition. By the time the resident psycho (who we are all secretly pulling for) finally catches up, our damsel in to much dress screams "I don't wanna die!" I don't want you to die either honey, at least not with your shirt on. Ok I've gotten off on a tangent here, the movie still sucks, but I'm all about healing, so I'll give it 2 stars.
