Review: My Bloody Valentine
Filed under: Horror », Mystery & Suspense », Lionsgate Films », Theatrical Reviews », Remakes and Sequels »
If there's one thing that 2009's remake of '80s Canadian slasher My Bloody Valentine isn't, it's scary.
Thank goodness for us, then, that it happens to make for cheesy, corny, gimmicky, gory fun -- if only in its 3-D theatrical presentation. Director Patrick Lussier may forsake genuine suspense and tension in his quest to create an overblown small-town soap opera with no shortage of nifty kills (though they may not be enough to save the film from itself in 2-D or on DVD), but the man knows how to use today's technology to create an amplified visceral horror experience. It's low-brow entertainment with high-tech execution, and while it's anything but scary, it's also pretty much everything but scary.
