Fraternity Massacre at Hell Island

This film is a classic example of how and why to NOT make films and torture the audience with stupid experiments. This was such a waste of my 1.5 hours that I am never gonna get back ever. A terrible film by every standard , this should never have been made.

A group of 4 youngsters performing on July 4th in 1984 piss of an old lady who curses them that the four kids are doomed to wander the titular island for eternity. Only on the full moons will they get a chance to come out of the curse if they can convince 4 others to put on their clothes and perform. Now we are in present day 2007, we meet Jack who has just joined fraternity and his boyfriend is a frat vet. The senior along with many other seniors have one last initiation for new frat members to spend the night at the hell island. We are also introduced to plenty other weird characters; shady dean of the college, Jack’s clown room mate, a runaway patient from a mental institution and a possessive girlfriend of one of the senior frats. All these people end up on the island that night and then dead bodies start popping up everywhere. A silly clown goes around the island killing and no one can do anything about it. There is no real gay angle because his sexuality has nothing to do with any of this. He just happens to be alive with another closet gay couple. The annoying seniors get into 1984 and release the curse of previous folks. Dean turns out to be the killer. blah blah blah

This movie was so camp, that it cannot be taken seriously even for one second. Every single actor is busy acting over the top. It's almost embarrassing to watch at times. Also the killings are horribly done. Most of them happen off-camera or from a distance with the fakest stage blood I've ever seen. The dialogues are terrible. The interactions don’t make sense at all. The random ending comes with a sudden back story out of nowhere. The killings are so dumb. One tiny little clown and no one in the. group has the balls to fight the man. They just run. I mean, common. The only good thing is some gay kissing and nude back shots but thats it. And for whatever reason only the 2 gay couples and a girl are safe in the end and rest everyone dies. There is not even a slightest sympathy for people who have died.

Avoid at all costs! This movie has nothing to offer. (1/10)

I've been following you for about 8 years now and seen a lot of films you reviewed, I would not have found without this blog. Many thanks for that. Lately however it seems an endless stream of bad reviews, on which I mostly agree.
It's about time we are hit by a great movie, that's really worth your and our attention. Got any?

Thanks Rotsedammer for your long term support. As Luigi mentioned, actually 2017/18 have not been the worse. For me, if every year, we can get maybe 2-4 really awesome great films, I would be a very happy man. In case you haven't checked out already look up 120 beatS per minute, call me by your name and god's own country. These 3 are my absolutely favorites from the recent releases.

Sei no Gekiyaku (Japanese) [Dangerous Drugs of Sex]

Every person has their own unique way of dealing with loss. This film is as much a psychological thriller as it is a soft porn BDSM portrayal of two young men that makes the film overall horrifying as well as humane. It is really hard to describe the genre of this film in one word. Its important not that the film has some really disturbing scenes so if you go into seeing this film, please proceed with caution. Although any sexual non-consensual activity is not ok, this film has its won strange way of showing that suicide is not the only solution to all life's problems. Makoto is a regular office goer, who just finds out that his girlfriend is probably cheating on him. ON top of it, his parents sudden death coming back from a trip that he forced them to take, he gets completely dejected and decides to commit suicide.

Drug Shore (Chinese)

Apparently tis film was adapted by a true story Well, true or not, movies/series about drugs are not easy to watch. I have always said that drugs is like the end of life for anyone. For those who sink into this sea of addiction, some manage to swim upstream to recovery, while others cannot make it to the shore. The film may not be the best, but it does have a noble intention to remind everyone of the evil affects of drugs and combining that with sex. Ah Zhe is in a happy relationship with his influencer boyfriend. On his partner's birthday, they end up going to a party, which interestingly is being hosted at a drug dealer's house and this is where for the first time he is exposed to the world of drugs. The duo somehow do it just enough and come back home but next day Ah She gets invited by the dealer Xiao Fei for a meal. The dealer has a soft corner for Ah Zhe, but before anyone realizes, Ah Zhe's life spirals out of control when slowly he starts doing more and more drugs, ...

The Shortest Distance is Round 3: Fallen Flowers

Continuing with the weird trilogy of "The Shortest Distance", I am so glad that finally I am done with part 3 and won't have to deal with this again in future. Thankfully, as of now the makers have not announced any further parts; which will save all of us on this earth from the embarrassment of watching this in near future. After the first 10 minutes are used in sort of recapping bits of first two parts, the story moves forward. Haruto is now starting to have feelings for Ruka, the mysterious pole dancer from second part. In a fit of rage, Ruka ends up killing the goat man and to save him and Haruto, Shibahara asks them to go underground. Meanwhile Shibahara continues the search for Seiya (the guy who had cut off Haruto's penis). It turns out Seiya is now also taking care of the original club owner from part 1. Both of them were released after they had informed Shibahara of Aoyama's secret location. Shibahara tortures Seiya's boyfriend leading to Seiya killin...
