Featured review
Beware of the cycle psycho.
Bike messenger Anne (Rebecca Palmer) has a one-night-stand with psychotic cycle cop Chris (Ben Price), after which she leaves for a weekend of mountain biking with her unsuspecting boyfriend Michael (Tom Frederic). Opting to ignore signs prohibiting the use of a dangerous trail, the pair speed through the rugged countryside unaware that they are being stalked by Chris...
Hardcore mountain bikers require some serious skills to avoid coming a cropper on perilous terrain, but the killer in this film takes the sport to a whole new level, not only making his bike fly, but also angling it in mid-air in order to tear out someone's throat with the chain. And he still lands safely back on two wheels. Tekkers!
Such a ludicrous death might have been fun if it was executed in a tongue-in-cheek style, but it is played out in such a straight manner that it proves laughable for all the wrong reasons. Sadly, it's not the only thing about the film that beggars belief, the killer being able to locate and sneak up on his victims with surprising ease and Anne being amongst the most unlikeable and irritating of horror movie victims, repeatedly making dumb decisions that put her, and those she is with, in mortal danger.
Director Robert Krause makes good use of his scenic setting, achieves a touch of genuine suspense towards the end of the film, and delivers some juicy gore, but the negatives far outweigh the positives. My advice: steer well clear of this one.
