had good points

Rating: 10/10 (15 March 2006)

Actually, I usually don't like gory slasher films except a few classier ones like Halloween (because of Michael Pleasance as the doctor) and night of the living dead, etc. I only saw this because there was nothing else to watch except garbage about gay cowboys, racial films, and transvestite films).
It seems impossible to say if this film is left or right. Yes it mentions government nuclear tests but it also mentions democrats not liking guns and brings to mind the major gay rights supporting, terrorist supporting (like the new film Vendetta) and agenda of democrat controlled Hollywood. But this film also leans left in some ways. basically, the film has hardly any agenda which is great. This was a big cut above most slasher films with a low budget look. It removes eroticism from horror in a redefining way. There is a clear good and evil here. The victims are not shown as fools or deserving it. I particularly liked the unexpected heroism which redefines recent horror films. I found the good family very likable after awhile. good film, but keep kids out like so many pigs don't do.
