This film was sheer genius


This was quite simply the greatest film ever, to make this statement does not require the viewing of every film ever made because it is so great.

The reasons for the greatness are as follows:

1. The film kills off 90% of the characters in the first 20 minutes yet still the film makers heroically carry on for about 2 hours

2. It is an erotic french horror film

3. The costume department excelled themselves with death's plastic mask

4. Massive overeaction to an expression of panic: someone hits their friend multiple times with a dumbell

5. A premature ejaculation that does not advance the plot and is unecessary in every way.

everyone should vote 10 for this film and get it in the top 250 where it belongs

there seems to have been some sort of misunderstanding...this film is the most horrible thing to ever have happened to my life.

I saw this movie a couple of years ago at a friends house & i have to say i loved it, it may be cheesy & badly over acted but the fact that everyone dies pretty much right at the start of the movie & it keeps going afterwords kept me glued to the screen just to see if they could salvage some kind of storyline out of it, the more it goes on the better the special effects get aswell, you just can't beat this level of cheese (Ninja Terminator comes close though) i hunted everywhere for this on dvd & finaly managed to get it a few months ago & have watched it several times since, i can't recomend it enough to anyone who likes a good cheesy horror/slasher/shoot 'em up flick :)

I can't feel anything I can't feel anything I have become the pain I have become my own demons!
