Steph...So this is Wes Craven's newest teen slasher. In this one a man at the beginning of the movie discovers that he is possessed and is "The Ripper," a serial killer who has been killing people in the town. He tries to turn himself in but his other personality kills his pregnant wife and goes after their young daughter. The unborn baby and the daughter survive. However, there is a big ambulance accident while taking the injured ripper to the hospital and its assumed that the killer is dead but nobody knows for sure. Six other babies are born that night at the same time The Ripper's baby is born for some reason also. Cut to 16 years later. All the babies are teenagers. They celebrate their birthdays/Ripper Night by gathering in the woods and pushing over a "Ripper" puppet to keep them and the town safe for another year. However, this time they are interrupted and the puppet does not get pushed over so I guess that means carnage has to ensue (whatever).
This movie wasn't completely unwatchable. It had some funny moments "You can't attack me I spit in the river!" But what really bothered me was the fact that it was so dark, literally dark. I know its a horror film but not every bedroom, bathroom, and hall way had to be so dark. I keep joking with Kris that this town must not agree with electricity. But anyways, its not awful but nothing you need to rush right out and see.
Kris.... Steph really nailed this one. I wouldn't say you should rush out and see it,but its worth a rent.
