Billy Club (2013)
4/10
So slow, you almost forget what's even going on.

I must say I was pretty bummed over this one. Slashers are my favorite style of Horror, and after seeing that bat with all the nails and self made bayonet attached, I thought this might be an awesome one.... I was very wrong.

I'm all for a "So bad it's good" movie, but this is just BAD. The acting is really ridiculous, almost inexcusably horrible; and this goes for really every singe actor and actress in this film. There was a typical Slasher movie stoner who was kind of funny, and actually probably the best actor in the movie, though that isn't saying too much.

The story is FULL of plot holes, and it doesn't seem to make too much sense, ESPECIALLY the twist at the end. As I mentioned in the title, this movie drags on so long in between kills that I started to forget what the hell was even happening in the plot. I didn't remember any of the characters names either, all just forgettable throughout. Usually the teens/people in Slasher movies are pretty dumb, but they take the cake in this one. At the end the female character sees a murder and freaks out saying "I need to get out of here!", and instead of jumping in the truck parked outside that has worked throughout the entire film, she decides to run into the woods. What the? The most bizarre and ridiculous scene in the whole entire movie happens when one of the male characters jumps in his truck to go on a drive and think for a minute, and he is joined by another male character who goes to help him get his mind off what's happening. They stop at the edge of the woods, where the driver then tries to kiss the passenger? Out of no where. And after being denied he says " I'm not gay!!" and gets out and runs into the woods? There is just so many stupid and unexplained things that happen in this movie, and by the end I couldn't wait for it to be over.

Other than a few kind of gory kills that looked half decent, I'd stay away from this one. I was going to buy it on Amazon just because I like to collect movies good or bad. But after checking it out on Hulu, this is just too bad to add to the collection.
