Aric
Blue is your average, everyday guy. Working in a mortgage office
selling loans. Only he has a special hobby, he likes to kill.
Unlike the serial killers of the past. He has no set way to kill.
He will use whatever comes to mind. He stalks his victims till
he has all their patterns down. Killing them at his leisure. Stabbing,
poisoning, shooting.. A total sociopath.
But now, Aric has a problem. Another killer is hunting him, and
now they are competing. Trying to one-up each other, proving who
can do the worst. As each goes further and further, the risks
start to build, and they are going to have to go after each other.
This movie is one of the nicest independent films I've seen
in a long time. I always watch the actual movie before going to
special features the first time around. After seeing this movie,
I went to the making of, and to my surprise learned the budget
for this movie was about 10k. The effects were done very nicely,
with plenty of gore, and some nudity. The filmmakers are your
average horror fans that pooled their money together and made
a film of their own.
I think one of the best parts of this movie are the killers voice-overs
which is what he is thinking. Not only are they insightful, they
are usually very funny, as he lets us know exactly what he thinks
of the people around him.
Because this was done by true fans, it was made with horror fans
in mind. This is not some cheap slasher flick. It's a cheap,
well made slasher flick. The only thing that was off were the
gunshots. You could tell they were sound effects. They probably
couldn't get the permits needed to shoot in a residential
area.
I think this movie is a good lesson for Hollywood. You don't
need to have a huge budget to make a good horror film. You just
need people who know what horror fans really want.
