AFTER DARK HORROR FEST: SLAUGHTER
Surprisingly good.
PLOT
Faith’s friend Kate helps her move into a new apartment after a bad run-in with her asshole ex-boyfriend Jimmy. We quickly learn that Jimmy is a psycho stalker who left her with some nasty scars on her back. One night out at a club, she runs into a girl named Lola and the two become friends. When Lola needs a roommate out at her family’s farm, Faith jumps at the chance, especially since Jimmy has found her again. Once at the farm, she discovers that Lola rarely talks to her dad or two brothers and the two girls live in a barn. Lola starts bringing home men and when Faith realizes that they’re never seen or heard from again, she wonders if there’s something more going on at the farm…
TRIVIA
Originally known as Faithless.
Part of the 2008 After Dark Horror Fest.
THOUGHTS
I put this in last night, planning on watching a little bit before going to bed and ended up watching the whole thing. From the moment Faith moved onto the farm, I wanted to know what happened. My boyfriend walked in, heard I was watching a movie called Slaughter, stood in the door to make fun of me and ended up getting hooked too. We were both kind of yelling at the screen and Faith because she made some really stupid decisions, but it was fun. I read a review calling this bad, stupid, the worst movie ever made, the most boring movie ever made, etc and I have to say that I don’t agree. Slaughter is easily one of the best movies from this year’s After Dark Horror Fest.
