Lose
your innocence... or lose your life.
A slasher is stalking virgins in the peaceful town of Cherry Falls,
once the kids find out his MO, they react in the only sensible
way they can: a sex party.
An interesting idea, Cherry Falls was a fresh take on slashers.
Let’s face it, the Slasher genre is pretty much dead. There hasn’t
been a watch-able new slasher in years, we’re living on remakes
and sequels, so it’s nice to see someone making a serious effort
in the area, even if it never gets off the ground.
It was too modern American, which means no skin or gore. Slashers
started as borderline exploitation, and thanks to Scream and IKWYDLS
and more money by attracting younger audiences, they’re becoming
more and more sanitized with each year. By 2010 they’ll all be
rated G and released by Disney, I think.
It’s still nice to see a movie that’s not a complete rip-off,
a decent little story, good actors and an interesting enough plot
to disturb you a little. There were some decent kills, but it’s
really set more for the 14 year olds than real horror-fans.
Also a little boring throughout, but if you need to see a slasher
film that isn't completely derivative, I recommend.
