Razor (2007 Video)
defines the word "garbage"

OK, I really don't know where to start with this one. It is incredibly bad. So bad its not even funny.

Its about 6 couples that go to spend a weekend at a house in order to have sex and fun. Typical story with the "director/producer" desperately trying to cash in on the renewed "slasher" trend. The introduction tries to let us know the names of each person but viewers have forgotten after a couple of minutes anyway since these annoying characters are just there to die. The movie goes on with ENDLESS (badly filmed and paced) sequences of them having sex, eating, pissing and shaving. There are also a few totally fake "torture" sequences that hard to seat through. Not because they are disturbing but because they are badly filmed, in MTV fashion.

Yes, this director must be obsessed with MTV with his constant hand-held camera work and quick editing. I bet he doesn't even own a tripod. Perhaps the guy would be suitable for music videos but he should really quit making movies....

The "music score" is garbage as well, with BAD metal songs with growling vocals....

The acting is bad beyond belief, not to mention the Greek actors deliver their (few) lines in English with a horrible accent. Perhaps the maker thought he could possibly sell this to foreign markets???? In the US they got films like HOSTEL! What makes the "producer" think anybody there would be interested in this amateurish piece of garbage that looks like a cheap, home-made porn video?

Oh, there are also "inspired" lines of dialog such as "I will F*^% you!" - I would be surprised if anybody told me the screenplay for this movie actually was longer than 5 pages! This looks like it was shot in less than a week. The whole movie is shot inside a (bad-looking) house and each scene lasts for TOO LONG. In order for the movie to be long enough to be a "feature" and not a short.

This can only appeal to 5-year old children or retarded people, really. I have seen lots of horror films, even bad ones, but this one... it is just unwatchable.
