Review of My Bloody Valentine (1981) by John A — 14 Jul 2013
After The Success Of Halloween, Everyone In Hollywood Wanted To Try And Cash In With The Slasher Genre. This Along With Friday The 13th Are My Personal Favourite Rip-Offs. This Small Time Film From Canada Has Gathered A Cult Follwing Over The Years & Was Re-Made As A 3-D Feature In 2008.
It's Valentine's Day In The Small Mining Town Of Valentine's Bluff, Nova Scotia, & For The First Time In 20 Years A Valentine's Dance Will Be Held. The Dance Was Put On Hiatus Due To The Events Which Happened 20 Years Ago. 20 Years Ago The Mine Collapsed Killing A Large Amount Of Workers, The Two Supervisors Could'nt Prevent The Accident As They Were At The Dance Instead Of At Work, One Miner Survived But Was Found In A Psychotic State. Exactly A Year Later He Murdered The Supervisors & Now He's Back To End The Celebrations As Well As End The Lives Of The Young People Celebrating Valentine's Day.
The Story Was Excellent For It's Time As No One Was Yet Sick Of Something Basic, The Direction Was Spot On The Script However A Bit Dull And Unintetionally Funny At Some Bits. The Cast Is Unknown But Gave In Great Performances & Of Course Some Nice Death Scenes. A Classic In All The Snese Of The Word Which Should'nt Be Forgotten About, Worth A Watch.
