I'd expected more of a slasher flick when I started watching Blood Games, but what I got instead was a well made action-thriller instead. All in all, not a bad trade off.
An all girls baseball team beats an all male redneck team and this leads to all hell breaking loose when members of the redneck team attack two of the girls. As revenge, the girls mow down one of the attackers with their bus and flee the scene of the crime. From there, the rednecks gang up trying to get revenge on the girls. No matter where the run, they'll find them.
Blood Games is a mashup of Deliverance and Friday the 13th with a little hint of The Final Terror thrown in. It moves at a decent pace, is very well shot, and has a handful of very exciting set pieces. If there's any major complaint, it's that it's nearly impossible to tell most of the characters apart on either side. There are only about 2 or 3 guys and girls who we learn anything about or spend much time with. It might just be a case of way too many characters complicating things.
