Everything you'd want in a slasher
"This is one of the better slashers I've seen recently. It is a bit overlong, but doesn't really drag too much. A few sequences in the woods could certainly have been tightened, but otherwise great. A great script with cool slasher legend, some spectacular topless nudity, great gore effects, and all the expected plot twists. The only not great element is the ending, and that's forgiven if they're planning a sequel. It ends very oddly with a conversation between characters, revealing something important and then just kind of trailing off. Definitely a whimper and not a bang. No last second scare. Other than that, it's great. Still highly recommended."
— Ed K. (5/5)
Awesome movie!
"A group of film students decide to make a documentary on a local killer that lives in the woods. It's a bad idea. I loved this movie. Some really nasty kills and lots of nudity. Highly recommended!"
— Nolan L. (5/5)

Butcher in the Buff
"Settle down girls."
— Andrew N. (5/5)
Butcher's Bluff
"Butcher’s Bluff advertises itself as a modern slasher done in the style of the ’80s, which it achieves in spades. However, Instone’s core inspiration here goes back further, about 50 years ago, to the original The Texas Chainsaw Massacre."
— Mike H. (5/5)
Super fun masked pig killer

— Justin N. (4/5)
